Dec. 15th, 2009 @ 01:32 pm Hanging out in Northern Virginia
Yea, I decided to just drive down here on Sunday to hangout with my friends before they have a set of twins in a couple of months. Also given that after the start of the New Year I'll be back to work and also taking classes again I won't have time to get away and do things like traveling.

Anyway time to attempt to get something accomplished.

For sort of making goth cool again, now maybe I can get someone younger than me like the Anti-Christ Superstar !

That's not recognizing the fact that I only played the part on TV...

On some level I think I should be having more fun. Yes, I did have a conversation with someone last night about being more grateful about being down here in FLA. It's just I had another lesson in the "No matter where you go in this world your problems and mental state will always follow you" lesson.

I guess I feel for the most part I'm wasting my time down here in "Cougar Town" since all that I've really done is hang with my parents and their old friends. Especially since today I didn't have a class [obviously] and for the next 5 months or so Saturdays are going to be booked with my MBA classes and the homework that comes with it.

In all it's just one of those "feeling as if your life is passing you by moments."

Nov. 25th, 2009 @ 01:12 pm Cougar Town
Since I don't watch the show I had no clue that I'm staying in "Cougar Town" for the next week.

It's not like I haven't always noticed shallow rich women in this town as I've been coming down here half of my life every winter. But is is pretty interesting to see skinny blonde chicks in expensive desginer clothes looking for a hawt time. What had me thinking was all of the shallow looking wealthy women on the plane down here form Charlotte. All I could see in thier eyes was just the thought on "Money" and designer clothes.

It's such a stark contract in comparison to Buffalo as the ones that due attempt to pull that look off are just for the most part pretending and don't have the net worth or brains to be the "real deal."

My parents are actually going to make a real bonafide Thanksgiving Dinner. I don't think we had done something like this in years, at least not since since my sister died 12 years ago.

My problem is what and where am I going to go after I get sick of my parents old fuddy duddy friends? At least there's a beach across the street to run and hide when I don't want to deal with old people crammed into this condo.

On the upside at least I know it will be good in the old school Polish kind of way. I just have to put in my order or black and spanish olives as that is my favorite part ;-)

So I made it here and enjoyed Day 1 yesterday by stretching out on the beach with my Mom doing a bit of Yoga. Other than that I have just been working on a Finance Project due on Saturday. So yea, figuring out the time Value of Bonds is not the funest thing to do down here unless you're doing it for real and you're using hte procedes to build some God Awful Condo project and never pay back to bank who in turn will need to be bailed out by each and every one of you when the FDIC money needs to be injected to said failed FLA bank...

I don't know I think I'll jump in the pool later after I ammortize a new bond issuance.

It's amazing how much a Yoga will rebalance your mood despite the other noise that's going on in your head.

Nov. 22nd, 2009 @ 06:12 pm leaving BUF
Right now Im just hanging out in the Buffao Airport waiting for my flight to Charlotte and then Sarasota. While I should be estatic, Im feeling kind of Sad. Why do I think about life in general & the fact that Im going back to work in 5 weeks? I need to suck it up. I THINK this is why I can never really have a healthy LTR, The one I have with myself sucks. WHO wants to be with someone s moody and can get sucked into a neurotic blackhole at moments notice? I would hae to say there aren't may takers. Other than that I just need to appreciate what I am going to experience for the next 10 days as most people would love to be in my shoes and make peace with whatever is driving me to be miserable.

So lately most people that I come in contact with ask me one simple question, "Are you Sad?"

To be honest I really don't know how to answer that. Is it the tone of my voice, body language or just the general words I use?


What alarmed me on Saturday Night was the fact that my parents even sounded concerned when they called me.

Why do people think that I'm down?


To be honest I should be happy that I'm going down to FLA in less than a week, but that also got me on Saturday as well as someone stated to me that "I didn't sound too excited to be heading down to FLA." Maybe they're right, but instead of focusing on the Sun and warmth I was just thinking of the other aspects of the town that my parents winter in down there.

Anyway I have to try to get it together.

So here is a song that has been in my head that kind of bring to melancholy mood to sound.

“Well I finally remembered that if you let your voice pushed go public it gets automatically transposed for you. To deduct it's ability and you can always go back and edit it later when you see mistakes or crazy lines of questions marks but anyways I am walking down Elm Wood and it is a nice warm day unseasonably warm for Buffalo like 60 degrees and I'm walking around and I'm seeing such the economy of people was unbelievable. For one end I see to just text guy and girl that are wearing a winter coat a Parka and the chick is wearing winter boots. You know shuffling around the sidewalk and then a block away there I see 2 college kids walking in shorts and flip flops. It's just so amazing how some people are such waste with fashion. I know there's always looking furnished just to taken into another direction such as shorts and flip flops because 60 degrees in Buffalo in November isn't beach weather by ___ imagination although it's feels really nice I talk there but this way it's just pretty fine to see that. Anyways I'm just continuing my walking my exercise.”

“Yes I'm driving you home from it's like dinner at Arby. But anyway so I'm just driving home and I'm like in the highway to my house and I'm listening to Colin Haye from the Guarding State sound track which is such a great movie. And anyway there is a guy in front of me I'm like ok it's like going getting off on off the exit on the exit I don't know. But anyway I was looking at his plate looks like an old school blue and yellow New Jersey license plate like wow it's so cool. I don't know just had a good feeling of synchronicity with that little thing it's not the biggest thing in the world but it's kinda cool you know listening to the Guarding State sound track. Some guy from Jersey an old school Jersey plates in front of me. Nice little warm fuzzy feeling I guess I don't know why that's everything is going to be alright. I think it is. So that's it.”

I have this exact cover stuck in my head.  The funny part is this vid was taken extremely close as to where I was sitting. 

Needless to say the Pet Shop boys were a pleasant surprise for my summer concert viewing.

It only reminds me to the fact that last year I should have ponied up the 2 grand and got season tickets to the Molson Amphitheatre last year.

So I have found myself in this quiet and alone place right now. Other than my Saturday class that kind of keep me going I am pretty much alone, cold and bored.  I think for some reason it hit me last night as I turned off the World Series Game to sit in a cold quiet house all by myself.  What really can I do besides go up to a pretty depressed city that will soon be a town after the 2010 census.  Seriously, walking around Niagara Falls is just freaking depressing it's nothing but senior citizens or bottom feeder people.  Throw in the Grey cloudy overcast days and you have a formula for feeling down all the time.

Other than that Prince Charles is going to be about 3 miles from my house today.  Well never mind the fact that it's going to be across a river and in another country he actually is going to be over in Niagara on the Lake this afternoon. 

But other than that I'm just going to outsource my laundry today to the wash and fold since I don't feel like doing it today and then a couple of errands. 

The next 2.5 weeks can't come fast enough.  I'm really looking forward to getting back on the beach in FLA where my user pic was taken.

This band or actually ongoing project since it's more like the Canadian A Perfect Circle has been seriously stuck in my head for about a week now. 

But  this trippy cover has me in a very weird place

Do you think about moving abroad, or possibly back to Canada?


 
Well I seriously considered moving to Poland when I was younger.  Obviously it never happened.

Actually I wouldn't mind moving back to Canada, but under better circumstances.  The last time I was there I was married and living with my not so nice wife, plus I was dying on the vine in a low end paying job which was just a horrible situation.  Basically I was hemorrhaging money supporting her and myself and plus she didn't turnout to be who she portrayed herself to be.  Back to the question I would move back over there in a heartbeat if I had a descent job to support myself.  That's where I guess the MBA comes in, plus I think I could get around the regulations that I have to deal with in not working in the accounting field for 2 years if I was to ever seperate from my current employer. 

What makes me long to go over there is the fact that once in a while when I did have a dating profile I would just be amazed at all of the attractive people living in the GTA as apposed to the slim pickings in Buffalo.  Also add to that the availability of great shows and you have a winner.  The only downside would be the weather as winter is well you know....

So I'm back in it totally now.

I have made peace with the fact that I'm a college student and have finally gone about and reupped my Student ID along with the parking permit and don't forget the out of pocket Fitness membership.  I figure now that I have all this time on my hands sucking from the welfare state and going to school partially for free I SHOULD take advantage of all of this free time.

So my goals are basically to get thorugh my classes, take a vacation down to Sarasota in the off week between Class #1 and Class #2 and possible the 2 weeks I have off for Thanksgiving and work out as much as possible in between so I can get down to around the weight I have in the pic which is around the low 170's.  This extra bit of flab is just getting me.  

Now what I have to do is not to get distracted or caught up with all of the eye candy or debauchery that is going on around me, those days are long over.  I think part of my problem back when I was a younger man in undergrad was the stuff going on around me did eat at me.  I wanted to hook up with the beautiful people, drink myself silly ect and I lost focus on what my long term goals were and such. 

It''s just now I'm here to double my salary.
