My weekend

This weekend I was able to participate in a wonderful union of friends. My dear friend was married. While everyone was heaping wishes of joy, happieness, & bliss upon them I withheld. Not because I wish them less....because that seemed to be a waste of a wish. One only needs to see them together to realize such a wish is like wishing fish to have water....well..durrrr its ALL AROUND THEM. As it is with these two. I've been in and seen my fair share of weddings. But it's a rare treat to bear witness to joining of two souls that were so very, 100%, disney-grade, made for each other. I've seen happy couples, but it's rare to see such a wonderful, perfect match. I've seen it only a small handful in my lifetime. My 2 lil brothers and their wives. My Aunt and Uncle.... Usually there is a disparity in effort, but this one seems very different indeed. It gives one faith & hope for a better future. I was told by her, about this a few weeks before the wedding. "He's not perfect, I'm not perfect...but we're perfect for each other". In the end...that's all you need really? In this day of internet driven, made to order replacements and swappable partners it truly is a blessing to see the birth of something you know will stand the tes of time. For being allowed to be a part of that I am grateful. So, Morgan & Eric, I do not wish you happiness...that's a waste of a wish...I wish you enough conflict & arguments to show you how truly blessed you two and this union truly is.....and a good supply of Duck Sauce/Mayo...because you can't have enough condiments

Politics and musings

  My thoughts on politics lately     I know I said I was going to write about the  break-in  and I will...but this  is  really sticking in my craw and I  wanna  get it out.    Everyone knows I’m quite opinionated. I make no attempt to hide it.  Yet lately I have been dining on an extra crispy bucket of fuck it. I just don’t care. Most of us have descended into such brutal tribalism that we genuinely do not know where the country is headed.   So many things have been lost. Nuance being the biggest. It's kind of why I am a huge BNN fan. I do not condone violence in any way, shape or form. That said, no one and I mean no one can possibly be shocked about what happened at the capitol. If you are, you’ve been in a coma for the last 10 months. I find our perception colors our world view. Mutes nuance, and stifles conversation. The internet has given rise to a wealth of information and disinformation. Sifting through that to find the truth is a herculean effort on a good day.    You can l

Looking back....and forward?

Having had time to reflect I have seen things that while they hurt, are good things. Everyone wants to believe they are special, we're taught that from a very young age. The reality is quite different however. Unfortunately time and society has had a way in de-valuing people. Relationships crumble and people are replaced in quick turn, dating quickly... sometimes in as little as 8 days...lol. People pass on and it does not seem as catastrophic as it once was. We quickly call for the heads of people that weave outside the of the mob opinion. I have no such illusions as to my value. Were something to happen to me...life goes on. People would mourn, people might cry...some perhaps even celebrate. But would it be earth shattering? No...not so much. When your Wife replaces you before she packs even a bag...when your girlfriend lines up back-up dates before you break up....things like that have a tendency to knock one's ego down a peg or two. Take me and Tink (will not use th

An Answer...carryover from my other account...porting directly to this one now

For those seeking an answer to the question. Was I as bad as my ex, Tammy J. Tallant says? the answer is yes. i did cheat, I did lie, I asked other TO lie. I betrayed the trust given to me, and hurt someone who did not deserve to be hurt. Its a long drawn out sad story of what was, what could've been and what is. I will not get into the nitty-gritty details of her sins because I cannot control what or who she did at any point and time. The only thing I can do is answer for my own sins. Accept the lessons learned from them, and move forward on my path to be a better man.      There is no justification, rationalization, or excuse for the things I have done. Granted in guy fashion I very much tried to find them. I very much wanted to believe there was a reason for the wrongs I had done. There was one. I made a choice. I made a conscious choice to betray my word to a woman I said I loved & was devoted to. They are always the standard 'guy' things...fear, ego, selfishness.
