Feb. 24th
Not a bad weekend at all, a little college basketball Friday night, then Saturday night Mikey and I went to Artopia, which is an art fund raiser put on by Westword newspaper. Good times, can't complain about how things are working out right now. Saving some money, heard some good news at work about a raise. I am getting more opportunities to do better projects at work. I have a couple candidates to make my life happy right now, so we will see how that goes.
As far as what is next, birthday is coming up, so I hope I find something fun to do as well as keep myself from embarrassment. After that Bailey is getting spaded on March 13th, hope she doesn't hate me after that. However it is what is best, I am to young to be a grandpa. haha!!
April 4th is coming faster then everyone thinks. I cannot wait for baseball time. Spilly called a shot yesterday during batting practice at Spring Training. Who does that? Only players who have just experienced one of the greatest feelings in the world.....World Series!!! I am excited for a great season as well as a great summer of fun. Baseball, Mexico, possibly a girlfriend. What else can I ask for? Oh ya, the raise that Cathy told me about the other day, that would make things so much better and a hell of a lot easier to get that Jeep and go camping this summer!!
Hopefully my time has come and we will start to turn this thing around!!

A Valentine's Day randomness
So here I am, another Valentine's day down. Nothing big happened, went to a hockey game with a friend after work. That is about it. I can say I tried to have a girlfriend, and I even tried to let her realize what she is missing because I am missing her also. Sent flowers to her office for one last "Hey, I'm still here waiting" and never received a response.
So time to move on to better things in life. I will say, outside of that, I have some pretty good friends growing in my life now. A couple new ones have come along since the New Year, so that is fun. One from high school and another I have met through work, I am a best friend machine. I will say, out of all people, I probably have the biggest and best support group. However, some days I get out of hand and almost burn some bridges with my actions.
I am trying to control that as it has caused a lot of problems in my life. I thought I almost had it, however, two weekends ago I relapsed and it wasn't pretty. Could it be my emotions that drive me to do things like that? I believe it is, but how do you control that. How do you control when you are going to be stressed? How do you control when you are going to be down or depressed? Once I figure those answers out, I know I can control the monster inside me.
So I have also been looking up some things about St. Augustine, who my dad and I were kind of named after. St. Augustine and "his licentious and riotous youth and early manhood" to go along with his "continuous struggle with evil; his attempts to find an anchor for his faith". He also had "the untiring efforts of his mother, Saint Monica, to save him from self-destruction; and his ultimate conversion to the Christian faith at the age of thirty-two." So according to this, I still have a couple years until I will truly settle down and grab a hold of the monster inside me and take control. My dad was about that age when he had me and from what I hear up to that point, he was fighting his monster too. So I guess we will see what the good lord has in the books for me and how it all plays out.
God bless!

Ready for Baseball
So here I am, sitting at work and all I can think about is baseball season. After the wonderful ride the Rockies gave Denver last year, I haven't been able to get into other sports like football, basketball or hockey. I enjoyed the great games through the playoff run at the end of the season and am very lucky to have been able to go to a lot of them. I am thankful for the opportunity to have been able to witness my first ever baseball playoff game (the clincher of the Division Series). I am excited for this year and already have tickets to 14 games.
