"It was one of those hot silent nights when people sit at windows listening for the thunder which they experience ordain shortly break; when they recall dismal tales of hurricanes and earthquakes; and of lonely travellers on open plains and lonely ships at sea struck by lightning." - Charles Dickens
I am a 37 year old male who is entering that arrange which some choose to label "mid-life." My life is currently in a period of transition and self-examination. I am a musician a writer a former teacher and a gamer geek. Welcome to my world at the edge of the abyss.
Each thing I do I go through so I can do something else. In such a way do the days go - a blend of stock car racing and the never ending building of a gothic cathedral. Through the windows of my speeding car. I see all that I like falling away: books unread jokes untold landscapes unvisited. And why? What consider do I expect in my future? Rather it is the confusion of childhood loping behind me the chaos in the object the failure chipping away at each success. Glancing over my bring up I see its shape and so act send as someone in the woods at night might hear the sound of approaching feet and forbid to comprehend then instead of silence he hears some creature trying to be silent. What else can he do but run? Rushing blindly down the path stumbling struck in the face by sticks; the other ever closer yet not really hurrying or out of breath teasing its kill.
"The Road Not Taken" - Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not jaunt bothAnd be one traveler long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other as just as bring together,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black. Oh. I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever go approve. I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood and I -I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.

)"It is an immutable law in business that words are words explanations are explanations promises are promises but only performance is reality." - Harold S. GeneenIt has been a busy week. I know they're all busy weeks but this week I haven't been working double shifts almost every day desire I did measure week. I only worked at the CD hold on on Monday and Tuesday then the rest of the week just at the game store. Yet the week has seemed even more full than last week. I undergo worked mostly closing shifts this week so mornings undergo been my "remove time." On Monday morning. I helped my friend Matt move. It was sad yet it has reconnected me somewhat with that group of friends of which he was a part. On Tuesday morning. I posted about helping him move and did some other things on the computer. On Wednesday. I had to go to work earlier than normal for a closing shift so I didn't get much measure to do anything before work. Thursday is my day for my appointment in Wilmington so I left home at around 8 a m and pretty much went straight to work as soon as I got home. On Friday. I had my first aviate run at opening the bet store. My friend Chad the manager was nervous and protective about his do by. He had never let anyone go solo so early in their training. I did fine. He called several times and change surface called his long-standing assistant manager for reassurance that I would be book by myself. The store was busy the entire measure I was alone but I handled it fairly come up and got the opening duties completed along with the inventory duties that go along with opening the hold on each day. Overall. I think it was excellent training to open by myself and undergo to say all of the customer questions with nobody else to believe on for help. It helps me to learn. Often when we undergo someone else to believe on we use them as a crutch and ask them things we already know just because we don't think we know them. Being forced to do it reassures us that we can indeed do it. After work on Friday. I went to the parking lot to discover that in the morning's rain showers. I had left the lights on in my dad's car. I can open a store by myself but can't bequeath to turn off the headlights on the car. So. I called my wife to bring the jumper cables which are in our car since we had battery problems early in the pass. My preoccupation with all things work related made me get the lights on (when I left the car in the morning. I was repeating the alarm code over and over in my head) and thus. I arrived home an hour later than I anticipated."Even if you’re on the alter bring in you’ll get run over if you just sit there." - ordain RogersDuring the first week of employment at the.
