Life's Progress (part 3)

During the next few weeks I avoided her calls, I couldn't' take what she had to tell me, and yes I know that wasn't the manliest move I could have made but I'll get back to that in a second.  The rest of the time I didn't talk to her was due to my phone nearly being crushed by a falling garage door that made looking at the screen impossible.  For the rest of that summer we didn't talk. The only form of communication that I made with her was an e-mail addressing what had happened with my phone and nothing else.  All the while during this period of silence between us my personal back ground was made a living hell, but that's another story for another time.

            Now here we are, another year of school has started and with it, another chance to try and work that which has been built up and torn down over and over again.   With school back in session things where starting to look better, we where back into talking to one another and I was trying desperately to enact all that I had learned from therapy. (talk about that later) Like I said everything was going well until I offered her help with her calculus.  She said she would let me only if I seriously wanted to, and of course I did.  So we set up some dates and I didn't' think more of it.  We where suppose to meet some time on Saturday night, in my opinion but I think we had a mis-understating and she called me on Friday afternoon.  Now keep in mind that I like to get my sleep in during the afternoons and I just wasn't' awake to answer the phone.  Later on that night I found out about what happened and how pissed off she was at me, which brings us to the present. 

Commin soon, Part 4.  ( I think I might be runnin out of stuff to say at the end )

I'm Out, like the Detroit Tigers are out of the MLB Playoffs

Life's Progress (part 2)

Well I hope you enjoyed part one, without delay here's part 2

Christmas break didn't do much to help us out as far as a relationship goes. There is an old saying "Out of sight, out of mind", that saying couldn't be any more true with me.  I rarely got to see her from the jump seeing as how we go to different schools and I don't have a car (I'll get back to that point in a minuet), and now having to go back to our respective homes just made it worse.  Prompting this downward spiral was a little incident that happened when I got back to Huntsville a week or so before she did.  I was supposed to be helping her with some money that I had promised to give her, and wouldn't you know it, I couldn't come through with it.  Looking back on that and what it turned into, with the running around and pay-day advances here and there I look at that and see that it was clearly my fault that that situation escalated the way it did.  After that, she started looking at me as some kind of unfortunate asset that she had unwillingly taken on and would cause her grief. 

            During the last part of my sophomore year, things between us settled then rose and settled then rose.  It was a back and forth see-saw motion.  One that both I and her were getting sick of.  When school finally let out, most of the stress was lifted away and it was a mutual feeling between the both of us that we would work on our relationship during the summer.  Unfortunately the fates had other things in mind.  I started working at General Motors under the instruction of Mrs. Reeves and she started back at work at Cracker Barrel and picked up a second job (as did I) late at nights.  The phone calls became few and far between, I kept promising her that I would try and make it down there so I could at least spend a week or a weekend of the summer down at her house, but nothing ever came of this.  She started getting upset with me over issues such as me "never wanting to help her with some of the bills she had" and "never caring about her".  It all came full force some time in the middle of July when I mentioned to her that I was considering buying a watch, bracelet, and chain set that was going for a good price from jeweler in Livonia.  The reason I was telling her about it was due to her constantly telling me that I need to dress better, and I thought that it would help out with my image (plus I always kind of wanted a chain to match my watch.)  Anyway, she got really upset about this and it was like all hell broke loose. 

Look for part 3 tomorrow.

Until then,

I'm out, like my patience.

Life's Progress (Part 1)

Hello everyone, I would like to say thanks for all the patience’s that you guys have put on in anticipation of my release of part 1 of my ongoing social life.  I would just like to tell you, before you get to reading, that this document started over 2 weeks ago and it is still being added on to so the first two paragraphs are just the into, you'll get more tomorrow.  So enjoy.

Hello folks and welcome to the newest edition of the Spectators Review: Life's Progress in Retro-Spec.

Author's Personal Note: It would help in the reading of this article if you where listing to Andre 3000's song "A Life in the Day of Benjamin André" off The Love Below album.  Mostly due to the fact that I was listing to in on repeat when I wrote this.
        

 I would like to start out this conversation with a little bit of history about myself; As it now stands, I have joined the ranks of thousands upon thousands of kids and teens who's parents have been divorced.  Not saying that this is a bad thing but I just never knew that it would come to that with my parents.  In saying that, one must know that, even though I didn't think it would come to that conclusion, it doesn't mean that it didn't look like it would.  I was in denial about a lot of things in my parent's relationship.  A lot of times it looked as though they where fixing things and that everything would be ok and then turn around and it blows up in me and my siblings faces.  My parents where always arguing about things as well, from the biggest of issues to the smallest of things, there was nothing they didn't' argue about and it is at this point that I would like to start my life review from this starting position.

         

 For the past nine months I have been "involved" with a young woman  that I met at work.  Now this girl, I will admit, is gorgeous in every single way and the why she carries herself, one can tell that she is no push over, she get what she wants.  So needless to say that being the shy person that I am, I was pursued by this young lady.  Once we got the ball rolling afterwards I started to notice that, even though she was ideal woman to be with I quickly came to the conclusion that she didn't think the same for me.  I'll admit that I have some quirks that would take a certain group of people just to understand me (hence my current friends) but it started to become obvious to me that, while she meant everything to me, her interests where only skin deep. 

Well that was the intro, we'll see where this thing leads to tomorrow,

Until Then

I'm Out, like all the energy I used playing Halo 3.

Welcome to New Beginnings

Ladies and Gentlemen

As per the agreement that I made to my readers at the beginning of the school year, I promised to diverge into my personal affairs, to give you a glimpse in the mind of the persons you "think" you know.  A mind that is clouded and twisted and sometimes even scary when reading a paragraph about what goes on in my mind.  These are to be a series of events in my life that I will dictate as best of my abilities to you, the reader to better understand the inner workings of my sub consciences and consciences.  I plane to show you that there is more to me than meets the eye.  I have more to my mental state then just what you do know about me in the realm of Engineering and Computer Electronics.  This, my friends, is the world where only my mind and soul dwell, a place protected by my AT Field, and I'm am lowering the barrier around my mind to let you in. 

Welcome to the spectators mental dwelling. 

Over the next school semester I shall be posting updates to this specific part of the blog so be sure to check in regularly.  I'll try and have it during Wednesdays and Fridays.  

So until then.

I'm out, like my medical prescription drugs!!

Sports Brief: A catch up

Hello and welcome once again to the Spectator's Review. 

Sorry I've been gone for so long, in short I had a lot of things happen in my life and it involve my beloved car and computer, but anyway let’s get on with some reviews on some things that have happened since I last wrote to you all.

Since my last posting a number of things have happened.  One the FIBA Americas tournament got off to a start and finish with the new Dream Team that did a hell of a lot better than the last couple of dream teams that we knew before.  I believe that its safe to say, the way in which we handled ourselves during the tournament, if we can keep it together for the upcoming year in Beijing we just might have a chance at taking the gold medal and no less. 

As far as the WNBA is concerned the Detroit Shock have once again dominated the regular season and are already in the WNBA Finals with a 1 game lead over the Phoenix Mercury.  It looks like this will be the test for the women to prove if offence does in fact sell tickets while defense wins championships. Only time (about 1 week) will tell.

 Also another key factor that I observed during the Labor Day weekend was the return of the IndyCar Racing and LeMans to Detroit.  Man that was something enjoyable to watch as the F1 cars raced around a new redone track at Belle Isle. 

Lastly the Detroit Tigers have been going through there usual "play good the first half of the season and suck the later part only to barley  pick it back up as the season raps up" trend.  In fact as I sit here in the lobby of Edwards hall and type this, I read that Granderson has just made history in getting 20 homers, 20 triples and 20 doubles.  Making him just the 6^th person since 1900 to do that. 

Well to close this up, seeing as how this is the Sabbath, I would like to also state that, due to the new school year starting, I will have some more diverse sports topics to address as well as some personal things as well.  Starting on my new section "The Self Performance Review", there I will be addressing some person things in my life, things that will have you get to know me a little better.  Also I know that I've talked about more Detroit things then you probley car to hear about but like I said, school has started so look forward to some new things.  So until then,

I'm out, like Curtis Granderson's home run ball.
