Back and Ready to Roll

Oct 08, 2006 12:45

It's quite amazing how fast 2 weeks go by. I went to San Diego after the academy graduation with no specific plans, yet felt like I was sometimes pressed for time. Wanted to do so much and at times wanted to do nothing but relax. It was good to see the family again even though it looks like there are difficult times going on. My dad and my sister aren't on good terms like they haven't been for the longest time. It got worse now that she has a car and a boyfriend. There are some things that my dad just doesn't understand because he is so old school and stubborn. It's affecting his relationship with my mom which I hate to see. And when things went bad they turned to me like I would be the voice of reason and the mediator who would solve the problems and make everyone happy again. I can't do shit. I can't change the way people's relationships work. I can't change a stubborn person's opinions, all I can do is tell them all what I think, that's it. I can't baby them, they're grown-ups and it's up to them to work out there problems. I wrote this last thursday when I got back and last I heard my parents were doing better so I'm glad to hear that.

That made things uncomfortable so of course my bros were my comfort level. Everyone made me feel comfortable but Miguel and Danny were the only ones not having any issues. Same stuff with those guys, some smack-talking, joking, hanging out. That's all I wanted. Got to play some tennis with Miguel, Danny, Ricky, Michelle, Paul, and Nick. Miguel and I have an unfinished match to play and I will be back to whoop that ass Miguel! It seems like Rudy, Ricky, and Michelle are the ones I see the most when I go back home which is fine with me, I like those crazy kids. Realized how used to the thin air of Vegas I am now because during one of my games with Miguel I could barely breathe. But still I had fun. It was good to see the friends that I saw. Wish I could have seen more of some of them but I'll take what I can get. It was just nice to see everyone again and meet a few new people. Even got to do a podcast with Rudy. We weren't so good being that it was our first time but still I had a good time and it was something new. If anyone wants to check it out go to www.syguys.com and check out podcast #9. I just love going to San Diego because it takes my mind to a whole other train of thought. When I'm here in Vegas my job is what takes up my thoughts. In San Diego it's nothing but relaxation and no one treats me any different because of where I'm at. It's total mental relaxation. I almost didn't want to come back last week because even on the days that I was sitting at home bored, I was still super relaxed.

I need to find me some single friends out here. I like the ones I have but they all have families and when I hang out with them the families are usually involved. Or they can't hang out because they have family obligations. I'll be back in the office soon so I'll probably be spending time with my fling from work. She's cool but I don't know if I'm interested in a relationship with her. I hung out with her a few times and she seems like she'd make a better friend. Who knows we'll see where that ends up now that I'm back.

So tomorrow is the big day. First day of work I guess you can call it. It's more training but I'll be on the job. I'm excited, anxious, and nervous all at once. It's what I wanted though and the last 6 months were the first step in the process. I think I'll have fun, I haven't met one person who I don't think I'll get along with here. I just have to keep my head on straight and not make stupid mistakes. I can't let all the training I got go to waste. I think it's going to be fun and damnit, if it isn't or the people are too serious, I might just have to do something about it! That's just the way I am. I did it at the academy and I'm willing to do it at the office. I'll try to post more as I get more involved at work. I get too lazy to write here at times. But all-in-all, I'm still happy and grateful for where I'm at. I really have nothing to complain about.
