Wise Investments

‎"The first step to happiness

is deciding what you want,

the second step is doing whatever it takes to get it

and the last step is enjoying every minute of it"

Today I decided to invest into my happiness.

I have always put others first,

but I think its about time I make myself happy.

I have a few things on my list that Ive been wanting to do.

So Im saying fuck it,

Im taking some money out of savings and buying some happiness.

Some say you cant buy happiness...

well those people obviously are retarded.

Quick!

What color are my eyes??

...Yeah, thats what I thought...

Fin

Captivated

I love to watch you smile, talk and laugh.

Your mouth has me captivated.

Come a lil closer,

I want to study your face.

I want to touch it,

with my hands in my pockets.

How much does your soul cost? Is it for sale?

If you are asking me how much I charge for commissions,

then you are talking to the wrong artist.

You should invest in art because you like it...

not because of the price tag.

Artists that can ask and get high prices are doing so because they can.

And I can.

But, those who know me well,

know that I give most of my work away.

My Advice to Mom

You want to be the "complement to his swag" because if he hasnt achieved more mentally, physically, financially or spiritually than you in life,

what does he have to offer or teach you?

How would you benefit from having him in your life???

What would you gain???

The answer is NOTHING.

So why even bother???

Look for your equal and save yourself the burden.

Movin On, Movin Up!!!!

You are worth it!

You work too hard in all aspects of your life

and deserve to share it with someone that works just as hard

...if not harder.

Always remember I love you

and these are all things that you have taught me,

Im just letting you see it from my prospective.

Paint

Love is my biggest inspiration.

But somewhere along the way

Ive lost track about what that really means.

Its not the person Im painting...

but its the paint itself.

Of course a muse or object of my affection helps,

but I learned yesterday that I can paint anything,

anywhere...

and still be happy.

Stay tuned, a video will follow.

Another 30 miles down today.

North Hampton Beach

As I watched her freestyle her "hip hop" moves in delight as she waited for the next wave to come in, I thought about how lucky I am to have her in my life. To share this world with her and to see her experience it, is a true blessing...the greatest form of inspiration I have ever had. Why would I need or even want to look further?

"I Love You"

After playing in the sun, we walked down to the Purple Plum. They had 70 something different flavors of ice cream. Samantha had Oreo and I had Pistachio. OH and lobster rolls for $18...I thought I would wait to get back in Maine where I can grab one for $5. Which reminds me, holy crap I saw a lot of nice cars down there...and fine looking surfer guys ;)

We went to the beach to see the huge waves that everyone was talking about, thanks to Hurricane Earl. I parked at the part of the beach that was mild, but still huge waves were coming in.

God I love that smile, I could kiss her cheeks for days :)

We made it

Late last night, the pillows felt so good!

Damn long ass drive.

Dreaming about North Hampton Beach in the morning :)

Ride Tonight

Just around this corner

is a hill that I hate to climb.

Its long and seems to take forever to peek.

At the bottom of the hill.

This is about 7 miles or so into the loop Ive been doing after work.

It was 86 out

and I certainly thought

I looked like more of a hot sweaty mess than this.

Tonight I completed mile 93.

Tonight I got that run in, here was my view

Track of Trek Training

8-27-10 Bought new rode bike

8-28-10 = 30 miles Rt 1 PI Rd

8-29-10 = 13 miles Rt 1 Van Buren Rd

Total weekend: 43 miles

After three hours of nothingness in my head

as I rolled back into town on mile 29,

this song came into my head.

"I sit and wait does an angel contemplate my fate and do they know the places
Where we go when we're grey and old
'cos I've been told that salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed thoughts running through my head
And i feel that love is dead I'm loving angels instead

And through it all he offers me protection a lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong and down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me I know that life won't break me
When I come to call he won't forsake me I'm loving angels instead

When I'm feeling weak and my pain walks down a one way street I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love and as the feeling grows
He breathes flesh to my bones and when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead"

I feel. Im real.

Hi, you've reached Amanda.

Sorry I'm unable to come to the phone right now,

but I'm busy wearing ear plugs to his song,

listening to the universe,

feeling the wind on my face

and living in the moment.

Now excuse me,

I have a bike to ride.

Blank

I am creatively uninspired,

dead in the water of nothingness.

Blank.

The well is empty

and its been a drought for a very long time.

Football Season 101

Here is what I know/like about football:

Sexy hot men wear these tight lil pants

and once in a while I get to see one smack the other on the ass,

and that is fantastic!

The End.

The boss just braided my hair

and Ive been instructed

to wear it to work tomorrow....

I need to see this

I love my Brothers
