Some guys just don't get it...

We all know him. We all have this guy in our circle of friends... and if you don't think you do then you might be that guy. The desperate player.


I guess I have always been lucky in the relationship department. Not to say I haven't been hurt and had a few falling outs but for the most part I haven't had too many problems with my love life. It seems simple, you like someone then tell them how they make you feel. If they like what you have to say go from there. Too many guys (one friend in particular) think it they can determine what to say and how to approach a girl by the time of day and amount of liquor consumed. They find themselves chasing women week in and week out. Every weekend he has the same goal, which is to find someone who likes them.

The problem is that they don't really like themselves. They think a girl is going to make everything complete. Julius Kelp (Jerry Lewis) from The Original Nutty Professor taught me a lot when he said, " You might as well like yourself, think of all the time you have to spend with you."

My advice would be to relax, go out on a weekend and try to find something else. Yourself.

The ever changing, never ending list.

I hear a lot about bucket lists. I dunno, maybe I have one. More of my 'lists' are current lists, 5 year lists, 25 year lists...but I guess they all could be bucket lists because we don't know how much time we've got at the dance. Over the past 2 years my wants have drastically changed. I've been focusing on simpler things, true things. Not reaching so much for more, just trying to enjoy what is here more. That goes for family, friends, opportunity, relationships...not material things. (Except I really really want a canoe or kayak so I can get out on the water soon) Is it possible to make a list that won't change?  Is it possible to remain true to the values of a 34 year old father, when those very values seem to have shifted based on life experiences? Are the items on my list too specific? Maybe... Love Honesty Compassion Health Fun More to come on this one I'm pretty sure.

Take us out to the ball game.

Last night we ventured over to the Explorers baseball game after dinner, it was great. Jordan talked to the X's pitching crew out in the bull-pin for a while, and they ended up giving him a ball. He's such a sports guy! The pitcher that gave him the ball said, "Can you give it a throw?" and so he did...over his head out into left field! Of course my diva Bell had more fun doing spins and drinking a slush, but that's all good. I love my family.
