Whats your happiness?

Now i know i said nothing about me or boo hoo stuff. But its just something i was thinking about tonight as i walked around my neighborhood. I havent walked in a long time. I used to put my headphones on and press play on my walkman, yes i did say walkman, and walk around and look at the houses that i wished i lived in, imagine a life that could be. I was a teenager. But tonight i found myself going back to that time, minus the walkman, and walking around with my ipod looking at houses and imagining a life that could. Now the difference between now and then is i was truly happy back then. I had teenager problems but who didnt. But i didnt have day to day life problems, worrying about bills, trying to plan out my life for the next 20 years. You shouldnt have to constantly worry about something going wrong all the time. 10 years later thats where i am. I have to somehow find that happiness i had as a teenager, the carefree attitude with no worries. I think thats another reason i came back home. You have to go back to the source, to find what was once. I dont think any of you knew me when I lived at home last. Those were really good times. Just hanging with friends, discovering new things, my whole life ahead of me. With all my changes in my life this year, thats the one thing that hasnt really returned. So my question is to all "What is your happiness?"

Girls, Gays, and Gnomes oh my!!!


Ok so not a great shot of Times Square, but what do you expect from a camera phone. This picture was taken at about 430ish in the morning. Place was still hoppin and jumpin. Such a good feeling being there. Unfortunately by the time we got back to the hotel i was so tired, still a little drunk. So that means really loud snoring! I have to apologize to sean and christine for entertaining them with a display of snoring acrobatics. Also a sincere apology to my bedmate Leah, seeing as i scared her out of bed probably only a couple of hours after i had gotten into it. Sexy i know i am(especially if you've seen those shower pics of me!)

So this Nyc trip was the ticket for me this weekend. A little time away from Rochester. Time to relax and reflect. Time to spend with friends. So good to see Hannah even though it was for only a couple of hours. Good Pizza!! You know i really like Blue Moon now. Weird. Had jellyfish for the first time. Not bad. Expereinced Stamford, Ct. Though i didnt think it was so....poor. Alot of rundown neighborhoods. But cool downtown. Got to hang with some PGA groupies for a little bit in the lobby of the hotel. The Us Open was going on in the area the same time we were there at Winged Foot. The drive there and back suprisingly quick. And to top it off my sister had her baby while i was away on Saturday night. Angelina Starr. So im an uncle. But i think most of you know that. next is being godfather to the baby, yikes.

So back to the grind. Next trip wont be till august and thats a biggie, California! Gotta start saving my pennies for that one. no more kraft mac and cheese for me. Gotta start gettin the wegmans brand!

New beginning and Second Chances and wicked awesome smiles!

Im back with my 4th and hopefully last blog attempt. Im hopefully, no i am in a happier place in life in many many years. I honestly know who i am. I know what i want and what i dont want in my life. I have a goal that is attainable. Im not currently where i want to be in life, but i will be there. Although i am dead broke again after this week, im not too concerned. Bills are starting to be paid. I just got a letter in the mail from the first credit card i paid off. Its being taken off my credit report. Thats a very good feeling. Achievement. Now im ready for the second and third and so on.


So i heard on the Opie and Anthony show the other day, that Joey Vento of the famous Philadelphia Genos Steaks Home of the Philly Cheese Steak is being sued. Well apparently he posted a sign in his window that said "This is America, when ordering please speak english. Well of course Minority organizations in Philly were in an uproar because immediatly they thought this grandson of an italian immigrants was being racist against them. The Human Relations committee of Philadelphia is sueing on the basis of being descriminatory against a nationality or ethnicity. Ive got 2 words for them BITE ME! Thank god Joey hasnt cowed to them and taken his sign down. Its just another nasty side of the immigration debate and slowly but surely all our rights will be taken away. A little extreme am i?
