The wrong side of reno

Tonight should be fun! I get to hang out with Laila for a bit, she leaves for Iran (ee-rahn) tommorrow, she will be gone for a whole month, thats going to be lame!

BUT, I get to hang out with some cool people tonight, I get to see some cool music, I am probably going to drink quite a bit of Red Stripe.... I love Jamaican Lager's


Work today was hard, I am realizing that I am going to be here a while, maybe I dont want to be here, but maybe I do...

I think I need to find happiness here

its official, I have the guts.


Jonny out!

Love is a fast song

I get so imobilized by certain things, I have never really understood it.... I really think I have Adult on-set A.D.D. or "shiny object syndrome" as my mother calls it.

Its thursday and its a nice day today, I really want to go for a bike ride tonight, I just hate how dark it gets, its so lame and cold, I miss summer and thursday nights... Do you remember what they used to be like

The mass of people, pedels pumping, legs pounding, down hills, Through traffic

To the beach, to the gardens, through the city that we all love

There was something so simple about thursday nights back then, something mystical, something subtle, no names, no brands, no path, just

air
breathing



courage
persistance


Strength
wonderlust

How we long to find that desire again, in the eyes of a woman, in the scent of her hair, in the red in her lips, the mystery that is her...

but the truth? the truth is, that mystery, that wonderlust, belongs to all of us... she looks right at you... she sees the same mystery... you look right at the moon...

mystery

That frost on the window in the morning

mystery

I never want to leave that moment, I never want to lose that mystery, I will look in her eyes, I will look in your eyes, and I will see you, and in that, I will find the mystery

I pray you see the same in me.


Lets go for a bike ride!

Pack your bags, We are leaving tonight

I was in a meeting way over my pay grade today, It seems that is the way its going to be for a while, I am learning alot, but also I get frustrated alot.

Corporations need commitees, meetings, signitures and testing... and many many people to sign off on things BEFORE anything gets done.

There are some new things happening here at Microsoft, some very exciting things, BUT nothing works right now, and its going to take alot of overtime to get it working... tonight for example, I will be here till ten p.m....

yes, I start at eight a.m. and I will be here till ten p.m.

14 hours

thats my life right now





oh man






this is so overwhelming

My tummy is hungry

Lunch time soon, I am going to have a cheese burger with peanut butter!

Yes, you heard right, CHEESE burger with PEANUT butter

next to a hot dog with cream cheese it doesnt get any better, Me and the new roomies are working out the lease tonight... thats going to be fun! then come January 1st I will be in the new house with the "lava carpet" down the hall, I am so amped for the move, it will be a very good thing!

So I have decided that I have the guts now, you know, to do the thing that I have not had the guts to do? get it? Short story... Guts, I have em! Jon>Fear, Jon>foot in mouth, Jon will conquer, Jon will succeed, Jon will overcome... Guts, I have em!

Now lets hope I have them come sunday at around 6:25 pm.... im just saying... I might need a pep talk...

Bible study should be a good one tonight, we are going over what pastor tim talked about on sunday, I thought it was a very good sermon, I am excited to see where he takes the new down town campus.

I am going to eat my Peanut butter and grilled meat sandwich now!

A boy with a coin.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

So church last night was awsome, I had a great time hanging out with Brandon and the new friends, I am going to see The Cave Singers and The Fleet Foxes on friday, I am excited for the show.

Has anyone seen MASH? I got amped watching it with my mom and dad over the weekend, AND Fast Fridays AND MACAFRAMA are coing out soon... those bootleg sessions look pretty sweet too...

I think Laila and I are going to go on a ride this week, who wants to come, she leaves for Iran next week... long time no see, lets make it happen!!

This is what makes my head spin

This is so overwhelming.

How long till your arms have held me?

I cant belive I dont get to hold him on his birthday, I cant belive I dont get to sing to him today, I dont get to tell him I love him, I cant belive I dont get to hold him on his birthday!

This is not the way it was supposed to be, no one is supposed to feel this, I didnt walk out on her, I want to be there, I want to be there, with him! I am not a bad person, I have just made mistakes, I never should have let her say goodbye, pack up everything I love and move away, I wish I had the power to bring them back, but I am so tired.

I lost four very dear freinds this last week, but I have gained so much knowledge in return, I met four people last night that I would like to include in at least part of my life. Lets see what happends next.

Do the Cha Cha

First off, to all who shared the evening with me at the Cha Cha, Thank you!

I have not had that much fun in a VERY VERY long time, Happy birthday to Caitlin, It was my pleasure pouring you into the cab to take you and your friends home, I hope you dont have too much of a hangover. GO 21!!!

The photo booth was RAD!

Pitchers of Ranier for $6! YESSS!

The best part of the night was that the bar tender played an ENTIRE blink 182 album!!! SOOOO GREAT!!!! I cant tell you how many memories that brought back, GOOD memories.


There is nothing like closing down the Cha Cha on a tuesday night!!!
