"So, You're Malissa. Little Taz here has been going on about you for years!" Look, I know the picture is of a dude, but this was all I could think about for 10 minutes. And I just know that wherever he is, he's fucking running his mouth about you and won't stop. lol

Just a little flashback to when my oldest son, Jordan, was just a 4 yr old little bundle. He was hand feeding a wild squirrel. He sat at that door trying and trying for hours before that squirrel approached and even then it took a long time before it ate out of his hands. But he was SO EXCITED when it finally did! Love you son! Thank you for this awesome memory!

This is a homemade external hard drive enclosure. Why do I have this you ask... well, Sherida asked me to retrieve some data off of a drive that was built in 2002. That's only 1... 2... 3... psh A BILLION years old!!! So I had to pull this relic out of the tomb of past electronics to get the data off that ancient drive. Mission Accomplished: The data has been converted to a 2015 external drive. *pats self on the back*

Reconciling

She's super excited right now because the house purchase is really coming together, the inspector didn't reveal anything horrible and the appraisal came back at $145k which is $13k more than the loan, which is great and I'm excited for her. But then she sends me this text message: "Hey! I just want you to know that I really appreciate everything you do for me and for our family. I love you!!" Which makes me think that there is only one reason that she's sending things like this, and it's because she's super excited. I know when I get excited, I have a tendency to try harder to please others and I'm more apt to say something kind, even to someone who has upset me. I'm taking this with a grain of salt, as they say. I know that she is prone to hyperbole at this exciting time. Even still, it makes it really hard because I want to see her happy and thriving, but not under these over-inflated conditions. I guess it just means so much less during a time of excitement.

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of the intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the beauty in others; to leave the world a bit better wether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that one life has breathed easier because you lived here. This is to have succeeded" #Emerson You succeeded RW #RobinWilliams

From the depths of old internet comments comes another incredible gem of a story. One user wrote the following heartfelt plea online: "My friend just died. I don't know what to do." -The reply by this self-titled "old guy" might just change the way you approach life and death. I'm old. What that means is that I've survived (so far) and a lot of people I've known and loved did not. I've lost friends, best friends, acquaintances, co-workers, grandparents, mom, relatives, teachers, mentors, students, neighbors, and a host of other folks. I have no children, and I can't imagine the pain it must be to lose a child. But here's my two cents... I wish I could say you get used to people dying. But I never did. I don't want to. It tears a hole through me whenever somebody I love dies, no matter the circumstances. But I don't want it to "not matter". I don't want it to be something that just passes. My scars are a testament to the love and the relationship that I had for and with that person. And if the scar is deep, so was the love. So be it. Scars are a testament to life. Scars are a testament that I can love deeply and live deeply and be cut, or even gouged, and that I can heal and continue to live and continue to love. And the scar tissue is stronger than the original flesh ever was. Scars are a testament to life. Scars are only ugly to people who can't see. As for grief, you'll find it comes in waves. When the ship is first wrecked, you're drowning, with wreckage all around you. Everything floating around you reminds you of the beauty and the magnificence of the ship that was, and is no more. And all you can do is float. You find some piece of the wreckage and you hang on for a while. Maybe it's some physical thing. Maybe it's a happy memory or a photograph. Maybe it's a person who is also floating. For a while, all you can do is float. Stay alive. In the beginning, the waves are 100 feet tall and crash over you without mercy. They come 10 seconds apart and don't even give you time to catch your breath. All you can do is hang on and float. After a while, maybe weeks, maybe months, you'll find the waves are still 100 feet tall, but they come further apart. When they come, they still crash all over you and wipe you out. But in between, you can breathe, you can function. You never know what's going to trigger the grief. It might be a song, a picture, a street intersection, the smell of a cup of coffee. It can be just about anything...and the wave comes crashing. But in between waves, there is life. Somewhere down the line, and it's different for everybody, you find that the waves are only 80 feet tall. Or 50 feet tall. And while they still come, they come further apart. You can see them coming. An anniversary, a birthday, or Christmas, or landing at O'Hare. You can see it coming, for the most part, and prepare yourself. And when it washes over you, you know that somehow you will, again, come out the other side. Soaking wet, sputtering, still hanging on to some tiny piece of the wreckage, but you'll come out. Take it from an old guy. The waves never stop coming, and somehow you don't really want them to. But you learn that you'll survive them. And other waves will come. And you'll survive them too. If you're lucky, you'll have lots of scars from lots of loves. And lots of shipwrecks.

While I'm ranting: MATTRESS FIRM on Hitt, just made my shit list. Here's why: First impression: nice staff, knowledgeable, seemed concerned with getting me the best bed for ME without trying to sell me unnecessary overpriced things. Where they failed was not telling me about the 'hidden' fees they charge. If you do the "90 days same as cash" option it's $50. What part of "same as cash" means that I should have to pay an EXTRA $50?! I declined and stated that I would pay with my debit card. AFTER they ran my debit card for the full price of the mattress/pillow/frame and whatever else, they tell me, "sign here" and I see MORE FEES that I wasn't told about! This time it was $150!! I asked what it's for and they said, "It's just a small restocking fee if you don't like the mattress". But two days ago when I ASKED about the return policy if I didn't like it NO ONE said a dang thing about any fees. That was when I should have been told about it... NOT AFTER I PAY FOR THE F

August 04, 2015 at 02:48PM

Dropped off my car for service (a new windshield that they agreed to put in when I purchased it), when I got the car back it had 60 extra miles on it. Someone at the dealership was joy riding IN MY CAR! I will never trust this dealer again. When I called to complained about it, I was called a liar! He claimed the car was parked "right in front of his window all day" I call BS! Especially considering that this was the SAME MAN that called me at 11am claiming that they couldn't find my car and "are you sure you dropped it off". Are you freaking kidding me? I know why they couldn't 'find' it, because someone was out JOYRIDING in it! HORRIBLE! Oh, and to top that off, they had my car from 8:30am until 4pm and NEVER INSTALLED THE WINDSHIELD! I had to reschedule the install. I WILL NEVER BUY FROM Hertz Car Sales AGAIN!

Selina... meet Facebook. Facebook, Selina.

Missing her?

You know it's weird... the times that I miss her. It's so random and never predictable. It's not when you'd think. Like today it happened at 9:30 am. I wanted to talk to someone about my weird neighbor asking me for a ride to see his mother (about a mile away). I wanted to tell her, but it would be weird to text her about it and I don't feel comfortable just calling her out of the blue JUST to tell her about my stupid neighbor. To be honest though, this is the first time I've actually felt like I wanted to call her. Is that progress or congress? lol.

July 20, 2015 at 05:45PM

I have to give props to my son who lost weight, looks great and is much more healthy! I'm very proud of you, Jordan Harada! These were taken 1 year apart.

July 04, 2015 at 03:32PM

My new office pleases me greatly. (and by 'office' I mean the closet that has a closet in my apartment, and by 'greatly' I mean COLORS!)

Thursday the 18th of June I decided that it was time to leave my wife, Becca. We've been together for 10 years. There comes a time when you've been unhappy long enough that the goods get overshadowed by the bitter, angry sads.

Here's my letter to her.
---------------------------
You deserve to have a dog if you want a dog. I hate that I don't want one, I should want what you want. I should want that for you. This is really difficult for me because this is a small issue compared to the larger issue which is that we seem to be worlds apart from where we started. We both get angry over stupid things, for stupid reasons and I feel like our relationship has puttered out. It has become more about making it work and dealing with things than enjoying life and enjoying each other. I want to sit with you on the couch and watch the same shows you're into, but I can't because every time I sit on the couch, I struggle for breath for the next several hours. I can't ask you to get rid of the animals because you love them and you should be surrounded by things you love, but dealing with this has become a problem for me.
Even larger than the separate worlds we live in is that we clearly have vastly different approaches to dealing with the kids and I'm over fighting about it. I accept that you are different than I am, but I can't stand by anymore and listen to your son treat you with disrespect and apathy while you allow it to continue. I would prefer that you stood up for yourself and demand the respect that you deserve. And I'm sure you will, in time, when it feels right for you. I love that you try to give them both everything you can, I admire that about mothers in general, but no good will come from a spoiled child and sometimes I feel like you just don’t see what is really happening in front of you.
As much as I love you, I can’t force you to live a life that you and I are unhappy with. I can’t make you into a person that wants to play with RC cars and watch Game of Thrones and camp instead of dog showing. I can’t force you to live a life without pets nor would I want to. I want us both to be happy. I made the mistake of putting on a face and letting things go for years in my first marriage and I can feel the same things happening here. I won’t let myself make that mistake again. I won’t let you make that mistake either. I’m sure there is someone out there who will love pets and dog shows and the tv shows you’re into… I wish I was that person. I thought I could be that person.
I am so filled with angst and turmoil. This is the hardest decision I’ve ever made, especially after all we’ve been through together. Leaving is never easy and I feel like I am being unfair but we’ve talked and talked and ended up further apart with our views. We’ve compromised until we both felt shorted and still didn’t reach a common place. I’ve given this a lot of thought and played through hundreds of scenarios and keep coming to the same conclusion. I love you. I know you love me. That probably won’t change but I have to do what is best for me. I hope this doesn’t start a fight, fighting will just end in bitterness and hate. I would like to avoid a situation where one of us feels like we can’t talk to the other.
I feel like this has been coming for a while and as much as I tried to turn it around it just hasn’t helped. This feels really selfish but I just can’t continue in a relationship that is making me feel this way.
---------------------------
I have spent our whole relationship trying to make her happy and it reached a point where I felt she wasn't happy with anything I did to or for her. Then she replied that she never tried to focus on what would make me happy... it just never occurred to her to think that way. For her to say she never tried to reciprocate my efforts was just a slap in the face. Anway she wrote back this letter a week later.
---------------------------
I’ve been mulling over this letter for days now. I go back and forth about whether I should write it or whether I should just let you be for right now. I had a bit of an epiphany today though. I realized that I was stifling my feelings and not expressing them to you. You married me for me, because of the strength you see in me and even through all of my flaws you saw my sparkle. If I lose that sparkle then I’m just some other girl. I need to be who I am and who I have always been, clearly with a few needed enhancements. It’s those enhancements that I have been working hard at over the last week and I will continue to work hard at, probably for the rest of my life, once I’ve conquered one I know there will be another that I’ll need to get started on. For now, I’m focusing on the most important for where my life is now. A big part of that is you.
It’s strange how perspective can change so quickly. I remember having a conversation with you awhile back about how me being late all the time is just me, it’s part of my being. That’s still true, but I realized that what you were really trying to tell me when you said you think being late is rude is that, for you, that is an act of service. It's a choice for me to show my love for you by not being late. It isn’t just about when I’m going somewhere with you or meeting you somewhere, you are upset about when I go to work late too because it doesn’t just affect me going in late, when I go in late I also have to stay late and then I don’t get home until after you are ready to or have already eaten dinner. I have always known how important having dinner together was to you and I lost my perspective on how my other actions were affecting things like that. When I am late all the time, regardless of what it is to or for, you feel like I don’t respect you or love you. I get it now. I’ve slapped myself on the forehead about a thousand times already for that. I'm so sorry for not realizing this sooner.
I’m working on several other things right now but one of the other things I realized is that I’ve been tiptoeing around you, trying to give you what you need. But in all honesty, you haven't really told me what you need. Maybe you don’t really know right now and that’s ok. I'm trying to be better at communicating and I know I need to ask for the things I need just as much as I need you to ask for the things you need as well. I would really like it if we could talk about where you're at and maybe have some kind of small game plan. It doesn’t need to be big, just a plan for the next few days or week or so. Whatever you’ve worked out. I would also really like to discuss the finances. I want to make sure I know when things are due and what things are coming out of the bill pay and which are directly withdrawn and when. I also need to know what things you've changed and what the new amounts are going to be.
A couple of other things on my mind right now that I want you to know. I want you to know that I know how much you love me and that this isn’t what you wanted any more than I do but that this is what you feel you have to do right now. While I don’t want to do it this way, I can deal with it and I can be ok with it. I also feel like I am being compared to ShaNeil. When I hear things like, "I'm trying not to let it be like last time," it makes me feel like you think I could turn into her. I’m sure that is not your intention, it’s just the way I feel. I hope you know this already but I want to say it anyway, I will NEVER be ShaNeil. I will NEVER do those things she did to you. I would never intentionally try to hurt you in any way and I am so sorry for all of the hurt that I have caused you.
Ok, I’m going to wrap this up now because I know you hate reading. One last little thing. I started counseling this week. I am doing this for me. So I can work on my issues and get to the place I need to be to be the best possible partner for you and for me. I am 100% committed to this relationship and I am doing everything I can to be the best version of myself. I am already addressing my biggest issues, I know that some of these were the biggest contributor to my part of your unhappiness and I have already made huge strides in them. I am here whenever you want to talk. We don’t even have to talk about us, we can talk about whatever. Do what you need to do for you, just please let me know where you’re at with that. I know that you may not be able to see the glimmer of hope that I do, but I can carry enough lanterns for both of us right now. I love you more than words can ever express.
With all my love,
Becca
---------------------------
At this point I feel like she's treating this like a game... if she can just meet the check points, solve the riddle and stack the blocks just right then I'll come back and it'll be okay. It's not a game to me. This is my life and I feel like she's taken me for granted for the last time.
I want someone that I can be intimate with while still breathing, someone that can turn me on with a passionate kiss, someone who makes me want to be a better version of myself. I want someone to appreciate what I bring to the table and love me in spite of my failings. Someone who can see past the shallow facade and really understand me. I fear, at 37, that I may be on my own for the next 50 years.

July 01, 2015 at 12:29PM

I don't talk to most of you often, so it wouldn't surprise me if you didn't know that it has been a rough couple weeks. So, for anyone who doesn't know, here's the deets: Becca and I have separated. Neither of us had been happy with our relationship for a while and though we tried to work on things, I felt it necessary for me to move out. We will reevaluate where we're both at later, but for now I have moved into an apartment in Idaho Falls. We still talk and will still work on things but our households are separate. Sorry to give bad news on Facebook, but it seemed the best way to tell everyone.

June 28, 2015 at 06:38PM

Thank you Mat and Jenn for helping me bond with two of my wonderful children, Jordan and Summer. Hope everything turned out well for Mat.

For anyone who hasn't heard... or hasn't gotten their invitations from my wife, here you go. I'm so happy for her, not only because she put in a ton of hours, or because she had an emotional trainwreck smack dab in the middle of school, or because even with her procrastinating ways she still managed to get all her homework turned in, but mainly because she was smart enough to marry a great guy before attempting that crap! Love you babe!

What a great birthday, now if I could just get lucky, today would be perfect! (I mean get lucky in the lottery for you sick twisted a-holes). Thanks for the birthday wishes!

May 10, 2015 at 07:33AM

One of my biggest fears, and the single most difficult thing I can imagine, would be losing a parent. I love my mother more than she knows and I pray every day that she would take better care of herself, so I don't have to see that fear become reality. Every chance I get, I try to give her a good meal, better nutrition that she normally gets. And every time she leaves my house, it kills me to see her light another cigarette because I know... One day, she may not be around for me to feed, care for, nourish, and worry about. Mom, I know you have flaws and I love you in spite of them. Unconditionally. Forever. And if I don't say it enough, drive safe. Because, I know it's selfish, but I want you to come back to me. I want to see you again and never know what life would be like without you. I love you.

Sometimes the thoughtfulness of others astounds me. I think my heart grew 2 sizes today. I will miss working with you Melissa

Smoking of any kind isn't healthy. Use your head folks. You know you're killing yourself either way, lets not sugar coat it. Just ask my wife how horrible cancer and chemo is. COPD or emphysema isn't any better either.

RC Bitches!

Christmas 2014 I got my first 'hobby-grade' rc car. It was a Redcat Blackout XTE Pro. Fully upgraded with a brushless motor and lipo electronic speed controller. I thought, based on every review I could find, that it would be a great rc car. The first couple times I took it outside, I was extremely careful. Didn't go too fast, didn't turn too sharp, didn't run it too hard. Then on run three I ran it, full tilt, into a dumpster and busted the shit out of it. It wasn't expensive to fix, but I had to wait a week for parts. First run after I fixed it, broke other parts... another week. This time I got in a few good runs before I fucked it up but still fucked it up. The difference? This time they were out of parts. I checked every day, hell, sometimes I checked several times a day! A week... two... three. I couldn't take it. I sold that car, scratched together some more money, found a great deal and ordered a Traxxas Slash 4x4 Ultimate. It also came upgraded with a brushless motor and a few extras. Nervously, I took it out, ran it real nice then SLAMMED it straight into the curb! I almost cried. You never know heartbreak until something like that happens. It felt like my high school girlfriend just broke up with me. I instantly flashed back to the painstaking hours I spent painting, prepping and reinforcing the body. I swallowed the lump in my throat and walked over to it as fast as I could without looking like I was hurrying. I gently picked it up and began the gruesome inspection. First the suspension, a common area to break things... all four were miraculously in tact! I checked the bumpers, the bulkheads, the body, the frame... everything was fine. I couldn't believe what I was seeing! EVERYTHING WAS FINE!! The expensive rc seemed to be a great investment! It was at that moment that I realized, "She needs a name!"
To Be Continued....

I just got told that my "theme song", if I had one, should be "Puttin' on the Ritz"... Here's the lyrics. I'm not sure how I feel about this yet. Have you seen the well-to-do, up and down Park Avenue On that famous thoroughfare, with their noses in the air High hats and Arrowed collars, white spats and lots of dollars Spending every dime, for a wonderful time If you're blue and you don't know where to go to Why don't you go where fashion sits, Puttin' on the ritz. Different types who wear a daycoat, pants with stripes And cut away coat, perfect fits, Puttin' on the ritz. Dressed up like a million dollar trouper Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper) Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks Or umbrellas in their mitts Puttin' on the Ritz Tips his hat just like an english chappie To a lady with a wealthy pappy (very snappy) You'll declare it's simply topping to be there And hear them swapping smart titbits Puttin' on the ritz!

Just want to remind everyone to backup your phone. Make sure you have your contacts, photos, calendar events, ect saved. This way your protected from losing precious data, when you need to restore your phone to factory settings (or like my wife, Rebecca did, you can just spend all night trying to backup everything 'real quick' before formatting your phone). But if her phone got stolen/lost/broken she would have been mortified to lose her calendar events and she didn't even have her own sons phone number backed up. Better safe than sorry.

7 Secrets Things Asian Women Do To Keep Their Man Happy 1. RISE EARLY. Get up in the morning before your man does. Make sure you prepare a healthy breakfast so he gets a good start on the day. Even if you have to leave before him, make sure he has a nice breakfast waiting for him when he comes into the kitchen in the morning. 2. NEVER NAG. Never, ever. If he wants to stop off after work and have a few drinks with his buddies, that’s his business. If he forgot to take out the garbage – do it yourself. 3. BE AT HOME. Make sure you’re always at home when he gets in from a hard day at the office. Even if you are working, make sure you get home to your man/husband as soon as possible. 4. SMILE. Always greet your man with a smile on your face and, if you can, a cold drink in your hand. 5. DINNER READY. If you are home, or get home first, always have a delicious dinner ready to be served. And if he comes home feeling tense, give him a massage to ease his aches and pains. 6. LET HIM HANG WITH FRIENDS. If your man wants to have his buddies over for a night of poker, or football, or video games, don’t get mad. Encourage it and make sure you've got lots of sandwiches and cold beer on hand to serve them. 7. REMOTE CONTROL. Let him choose the programs you watch on television. The television is man’s domain… he should be in charge. Netflix and/or rent only HIS favorite movies or TV shows.
