Wedding in Seattle
So, I'm at a wedding in Seattle and it is awesome! There is a chance I will be moving to Seattle, this town is awesome!
I need to start writing on this more and I'm going to. But, right now I need to soak up all the liquor.

here's what i think...family
Good evening,
This will be short and sweet. Some people say, "blood is thicker than water". Fuck them. I made the decision to remove my father from my life when I saw that he was nothing more than a cancer upon my happiness. Today, I wrote a facebook comment to an aunt of mine that had the audacity to say that she is left in the dark from the family when in fact she receives invitations to all family events and chooses not to show up. Ever! So, I laid out the facts very plainly for her and essentially told her to get her shit together when it comes to her family.
Nothing has come of this yet, but I felt like I needed to write a little more about it. I have no idea who said "you can't choose your family" but that guy was right on the money. You can't choose your family, I didn't. Most everyone on my mother's side of the family (excluding the aunt I'm referring to) kicks ass. My father and his family suck giant monkey balls full of herpes so I don't associate with them.
The light at the end of the tunnel here is that you can choose your friends and I have chosen some of the best people this planet has to offer to be my friends. These are men and women who truly care about me and would do anything for me simply because they know I would do the same for them, just like a family is "supposed to be". These friends are really my family as well, but they are the family I chose.
Maybe because of that they have a higher place of honor in my heart?
I don't know. What I do know is that it's Thursday, it's late for me and I've got work in the morning.
Good night,
Kyle

here's what i think...Middle management and Michael Cera
What's up?
Another day of work done, another day of my life wasted. I have to wonder, are there people who really find fulfillment in the monotonous day to day work similar to what I do? Are there really people who grow up and say, "when I grow up I want to create nothing and accomplish even less"? One of my superiors told me that they once went to a therapist after having retired once or twice already to find out what kind of work is meant for them and according to this therapist this superior of mine would find happiness in middle management type work. I remember hearing that story and thinking to myself, "who in all of God's green Earth wants to be in middle management?" The way the story was told to me made it seem like there was no desire to move up, rather merely remain stagnant. Middle management is a position where all you do is catch shit. It comes down on you from those above you and it makes its way up from those you are above.
WHO WOULD WANT THIS?
I just can't understand this! I want out!
Anyway, I felt like I needed to get that out. Have a great night everyone.
PS I hate Michael Cera. He became useless after Superbad. Every role since has been Evan from Superbad. He sucks and is completely irrelevant.Go die, Michael Cera!

here's what i think...
Greetings,
Today has been a lazy day. I woke up around 10, made a nice big brunch, and kicked back. The biggest event today was going to get some shopping done for the house. I don't know how to describe it but there was a definite "funk" in the air today. I don't mean there was a smell but rather just this feeling. As soon as we went to the store my mood changed and my thoughts became a combination of an all consuming disdain for the people around me at the stores and the desire to get the hell home! Now, I;m back home, although I will be going out in a few minutes to fill up my gas tank and fill up the propane tank for the grill. So, maybe I'll be back later to talk about going out again in this odd funk-filled day. If not, I will talk to you soon!

here's what i think...what this is about
Good morning,
Today I begin blogging. Now, I could come up with a list of ridiculous reasons why I'm starting this blog but that's just not my style. I'm starting this blog because I think it will be good for me to get some of the things on my mind out and it could be great for you, if anyone ever reads this, to talk with me in this setting about what I write, and maybe about what I haven't written.
I want to discuss life, love, good food, the things that make me happy and the things that just need to go away. A good majority of this will be comments on my personal experiences and in many cases I will be asking whether or not I am right in my arguments.
I feel it also important to mention that I am not, in any way, trained in a field to offer advice. I, like everyone else, merely have opinions that I'd like to share and I welcome your opinions as well.
So, first blog is coming to an end and I need some sleep. I plan on really starting tomorrow after I wake up and have some breakfast, but I wanted to at least get the basics down on "e-paper"? Have a great night and I look forward to sharing thoughts with you.
