last night on graveyard I was in a major brainstorm. I swear I am onto something revolutionary. But I cant pull it out. Anyways, in the middle of a melt down I thought of an old favorite by The Cure.

Lyrics : For how much longer can I howl into this wind For how much longer can I cry like this A thousand wasted hours a day Just to feel my heart for a second A thousand hours just thrown away Just to feel my heart for a second For how much longer can I howl into this wind

I worked graveyard shift lastnight. This being 2hours after my 1st entry here. Let me tell you as a perfectionist I did alot of floor pacing. I wasnt entirely satisfied with my 1st entry. I thought up a billion ways I could have made it better. I also got excited (geek that I am) about my 1st entry, and wanted to enter more. I thought of what useless banter I could add, and how to incorporate it into a website, etc. Fortunately, staying awake was my #1 priority. I usually keep myself up much too late on nights I should be sleeping. Incidently, I average about 3 - 5 hours of sleep. I know this should be catching up to me soon enough.
I think I managed to change the template of this thing.
In the future we can expect more of that as well as some sort of website to add the usual (v)irtual (p)laces stuff. I dont think I actually want to run a paintshop though, since I am spread thin enough as it is.
Define thin? okay. I am a single Dad (age34) with 3 daughters, ages 3, 5, and 7. I have a rotating shift at the local power company.

My wish list includes a palm pilot :)

1st entry - (off the record) ok, so as dumb as I am, I am still eager to learn new things. Bare with me as I find my way through this life and through this journal.
(official ceremony...)With you as my witness, I do hereby christen "the grapvine" to share my thoughts and feelings, which is important to me because:
1. I have friends and family who care to share my existence and give meaning to my life.

2. I feel that my thoughts are important enough for you to agree and disagree with...thus giving meaning to my life.

3. If I put my blog on the superhighway I am actually contributing to the life and existence of the internet, which as you may have already guessed, gives meaning to my life.

Enjoy :)
