Dear George

Dear George:

I haven't talked to you in a while.  Hell, I think its been since 12th grade when I wrote in the journal for English class with Ms. Short (remember her).  I'm sure you know all that I've been up to, so I am NOT going to go through the past twenty (yes, I said 20 fucking years) since senior year of high school   Holy shit, i'm getting old :)

I bowled last night and did okay.  Average down to 187, but I bowled a 615 so moving in teh right direction, I suppose.

I'm supposed to have dinner with my nephew tonight.  Don't know where (usually Tucker's), but should be interesting.  His sister (my niece  is pregnant and will be having her child in the next few weeks (this, frankly, is not good news).  She is only 20 and has no business having a kid.  Its been hard watching her go down the wrong path.  Since her mother, my sister, died 2 years ago, she has had a rough time.

She was given some money and still received social security from her father's death.  All I wanted was for her to go to school, but she would not consistently go.  She fucked around and ended up quitting (she claims she will go back, but I am not so sure).  To top it off, she got pregnant (which was probably on purpose though she argues otherwise).

As my nephew says, he is so pissed, but it will not be the kid's fault.  How do you deal with that?  Support her so the kid is okay??  Is that right?  That appears to support her decision?

Not easy decisions, but ones that we have to deal with.  I know one thing, I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I'm making sure my kids don't have kids for a long time.  They are still little, but I will do everything in my power to keep that from happening.

Not sure how we pull that off, but I'm doing something (chastity belt?  threats? dungeons?)  Any ideas would be helpful...

Its January 3.  My resolutions won't start in earnest until January 14 for reasons not to discuss here.  then it's on like donkey kong....good times...

I've been trying to decide if i should continue working out at 4:45 AM (yes AM) or move it to the night?  I'll continue to consider these options.

That's all of my stream of conscientiousness right now.  Sometimes, when I write its profound, intellecual, sometimes its bullshit...and sometimes its because i don't want to start work.  guess which one this was ...

have a great day.

be easy
