The weather sucks here today. It's like we finally got winter. Blah...

 

On the other hand, had the weather been better, traffic going into work would probably have been worse... which is hard to imagine, since it took me an hour to get there... with 45 minutes of the trip being all in the last block and a half of the journey. It was brutal.

If one thing I enjoy about moving to La Crosse wi, is that I went from a city (madison) of 300,000 and county (dane) of 500,000 people. To a city of 51,000 (La Crosse) and a county of 120,000 people. My commute is an easy 20 minute 10 mile drive. with most of it being two lanes all the way at 35 mph.

 

Mississippi river on one side, and bluffs on the other side kinda limit the population growth quite a bit

fixed my car sortof. almost certain its the cables now, not too sure on the cap but it could be that too...just annoying having to run it like that, but once i hit the highway it runs normal. bleh.

 

missing my ex. trying hard to fill that void with new friends from my unit to keep me from being so depressed and full of hurt all the time. decided to stay away from alcohol for a while and focus on pt and putting money towards keeping my car legal to drive. -_-

 

school is annoying. i want to go, but now i need to run around all over the college just to register for one class, so eh....**** it. :rolleyes:

 

staying part time at walmart. so in 2 weeks when classes end, i'll have all this extra time for pt, internet, and time with friends.

I wasn't going to mention it, but i did to R15

 

Thinking of taking up Pipe smoking. My wife is encouraging me. Which is rather strange. So far I was thinking of starting with a quality Corncob pipe, and some Aromatic tobacco. Likely will be using the "Frank Method".

 

Strange to realize that for pipe smoking you don't have a fire going like with cigars or cigarettes, but you light and puff, then often relight it again and again.

my friend is annoying me wanting me to go out drinking this weekend.....im like no, i got rent to take care of, a car that requires gas to get me to work so i am able to pay for the rent. some people need to move out of their ****in parents and see how it really is. or buy me drinks.

I don't want to work today. I'm tired, and the show looks like it's going to be annoying.

 

It's been a busy week so far. Several trips to the vets with puppies, and a whole bunch trips to car insurance offices and the registry for my GF's car... in addition to going to work and having meetings and such.

 

I can't believe that it's only Wednesday. And that my next day off is still 7 days away.

tried talking to my ex today/night, guess i can just go see a hypnotist or something erase it from my head cause i can't stop missing her. i dont want to sound like a bitch but i cry all the time now just thinking about it. like seriously, the heartache i went through basic/ait without her, missing her every ****ing day and then her to just leave me like i meant nothing. it just ****ing hurts and i can't figure out how to get it out of my system.

 

does anybody have any realistic advice?

yes, get over it.

 

seriously.

 

5 years from now you are going to be glad you got out of that relationship. You want the familiar and the companionship. You also are looking at it with rose tinted glasses and forgetting all the bad stuff in a lame attempt to justify getting back. Don't.

 

Be happy with yourself first. Be happy about your life without having someone nearby. Because if you are happy and confidant, you will be even more so when you do find that special someone to share your life with

yeah you're right...there was alot of bad...lol her wanting kids, constant talking like she was some kind of prophet (she still does that), ridiculous spending of my money on stupid **** which caused a small amount of debt that i gotta pay back someday, (electricity bill, gas bill, internet, directv), she can't hold a job, never acknowledged anything good i did for her, no appreciation of me, very selfish, tried to mold me into something i'm not (ex. 'you should be a doctor, doctors are so hot') little does she realise how many years of ****ing bull**** school they go through and how little time they get to spend with their families, and how much debt those schools accrue. :rolleyes: she has some mental disease where she just doesn't realize how she acts or when she says stuff it just doesn't make any sense at all. I'm sure the college she's going to helped with that, because it got worse when she started going, and the funny thing is i encouraged her to go back to school since she never worked a day before that when i was out working she was home doing who knows what. she got us evicted from the first place we were at together because she got insecurity issues with people, and let her dog roam all over the street, filed a harrassment complaint against the landlord for him making a funny comment about her ****in wig she was wearing. then god forbid i drop the f-bomb or swear at all, holy war broke out and i got those 30-45 minute lectures about it. she'd be taking these ****in prenatal vitamins, oh and when we were looking at rings and ****...she wanted the **** i couldn't afford of course. ;oh you can get a loan and pay it off' yeah right, and pay rent and bills gas and food on top of it how? she has no sense of repaying debts owed, her parents are rich as **** and yeah they helped us out several occasions, but i tried to stop her spending habits which always led to a ****ing fight so i'd be like **** it and give in. i doubt there will be a day where she will look back and remember me and realize how good i was to her. i can't see any other guy tolerating her **** longer than i did. she's also got alot and i mean ALOT of baggage other than the **** i experienced with her, which explains why she is the way she is, and why she will probably never change. i have to set a date where i burn all pictures, letters, etc from her. and now she acts all like 'im so confident and this and that' like she doesnt need me, which i understand, fine, but to just dump me like i meant nothing to her is what i don't understand. but eh whatever, a better, more attractive girl will come along my way and love me for me.

working out is a good way to get your mind off the girl

 

Went out to do some shopping for tobacco pipes and via the internets found out a place called "Deaf ear Records" has a "head shop" upstairs. at ground level they have Old vinyl records, cds, and DVDs (includuing disc golf Discs). Teh advertised the have tobacco and pipes in thier Head shop. I went up there and found wall to wall glass display cases for pipes, Hookahs, and such, but none of the pipes were appropriate for Tobacco Smoking. Yea, you know what I mean.

 

The Clerk there told me that they do not carry anything like that because there is no market for it. But.. there is a specialty shop that sells Cigars, pipe tobacco, and Tobacco pipes two blocks down the street. I kind of looked at him for a second with the thought running through my head that his first statement was invalidated by the second statement. I was thinking he had been using the pipes in the display case far too long to make any good judgement.

 

So i go to the other store called "The Briar patch" and this is the store to go for expensive high quality cigars and tobacco. basic Briar Pipes were $30. Aromatic tobacco was priced from $5 to $10 an ounce. Had pipe cleaners, and recommended basic wooden matches.
