First week.........

This past week was a first of two things. The first week of work for me and also the first week my womanizeing cousin from Jamaica is in NY.

Let's first start with the first week of work. Well once again I'm surrounded by females with attitudes, but that's not the end of it. The bank I work at is so boring that most of the day we do nothing to do with our job function. So the manager also a female give us, the teller other things to do to try and expand the branches monetarty intake. Like make phone calls to potential customers above more investment at that lovely bank. Also she and the bank as a whole is more sales driven, they want every customer to use every product they have to offer. From CD's to internet banking to direct deposits, she seems to be stressing us the tellers to sell these products to the customers that come into the bank. If the customers that came in the branch was more than ten a day I think that could happen, but with so little customers coming up to the windows what can we really do. She also expects me and the other new girl to be experts so quick, she is a bit crazy and it is getting to me so quickly. I guess working in England in a more relaxed atmosphere grew on me. I come back to NY and once again the American mentatally of sell, sell, sell is being drilled in my head with heavy resistance. What can I do but be myself and try and make them happy as long as I'm working there, which might not be more than six months.

Now to my cousin from Jamaica, already the first night out with him brought me home at six in the morning. It was an interesting night, but not too exciting. It seems as if he has lost his flare for the ladies and the night life. I guess that five weeks in a Jamaica jail has knocked some sense into him. All we did that night was check one female friend of his who came to the US on a little girl's passport and she's twenty-two years old. That was cool, then we met up with another one of his friends in Brooklyn, he is a forty-five year old guy with three kids and still living like he single, young and free. Crazy, huh?? Well we hit a few spots seen some nice sexy ladies and then came home. Nothing too exciting.

I'm not really looking for any excitement but would help greatly to get my mind off my ex. She has been on my mind soo much ever since I came back. I really wish she could be here with me. I just wish with all my heart I can win a few million and get a house and get her to marry me and just live over here somewhere. That's just a dream, a dream I dream every night and every day. Well I guess we can all dream happy dreams, I hope I have one tonight, I'm sick of crying at night.

Good Night. Sweet dreams!

A full rainbow............





One day walking home from work in England I seen a rainbow. It was the fullest rainbow I have ever seen in my life. Most times when I have seen a rainbow I might only see half of it, but this time I seen almost the whole thing like you see in the picture above. When I did see it I can honestly say it took my breath away and made my heart skip a beat. I haven't seen one in so long I can't even remember but I loved it soo much.

When I seen it, it brought me to think of so many things that have been going on in my life and what direction I need to go in. Maybe it was just my active imagination but I did see the gold at the end of my rainbow of my life. I decided that I need to follow my own advice and do things the smart way while trying to still enjoy the life I have. Just as I was contemplating all these things the rainbow slowly disappeared, and I took that to heart thinking that's just how life it. The life we live can have direction and even gold at the end of the journey, but just as wonderfully and miraculously it came to be it can disappear and be gone from our eyes. So why not while we are here, shine bright, head in the direction of the gold and have fun while doing it. So this will be my philosophy for the rest of my life. Peace!!

First Snow...........



Something I was hoping to avoid, this damn snow! Only less than two months back in NY and I get hit with this abundance of snow. I was hoping with such a nice winter we were having that I could avoid this snow this year, but nooooooooooooo! It came slow and lasted long, just the way I want to spend my weekend. Looking out my window as the snow accumulates so much that I can't even look through my window.

I can't really complain because it's not as much as it looks. The snow was light and fluffy which made it very easy to shovel. Although on the news they kept saying it was close to a record high for snowfall, but I guess I'm finally use to it huh?? It didn't seem much and with all my exercising I was aching in pain for the next few days. My back did hurt but not the way it use to, I'm mean I couldn't straighten my legs without pain, stand up, bend over or anything. I just finished my regular exercise today and it's only been two days since I shoveled all that snow, so I'm pretty proud of myself and ready for the next one.

The picture below if the after picture of all the work me and my father did!
And the good Lord for all that sunshine!

The First Day.........

Well today was the first day of a shitty job. I took the job because the better job took too long to respond back to me. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I need to work. Valentines day is coming very soon and I have no cash to buy anyone anything at all. I'm sure the people I was thinking of getting them something will forgive me, eventually.

It's been a very uneventful few weeks since my last post, except for one thing. This one thing kind of worries me a bit. My sister has a friend and he is married to a lady, plus they have a cute little baby. Now the thing that worries me is that I think this lady is hitting on me on the low. I'm not sure but the last time she sent a message through my sister saying, Hiiiiiiii." in the I like you way. I don't know what the hell is going on here but, I will be keeping my distance from that lady. Although I would be attracted to her, if and only if, 1-she wasn't married, 2-no baby and 3-her husband I never met or was my sister's friend. So take away all that, I would possibly have talked to her a bit.

Now back to real life, I'm broke with a shitty job, and nonexistent friends, but life is good. Lost weight, slimed down a bit, gotten stronger, wiser but the wealthy part is soon to come! Peace!!

Happy Birthday Bob!
