Okay, tonight is going to be a straight up trip! The mall, that's right MALL, is going to be one of Denver's hottest locations to ring in the New Year...I don't know why so don't ask me...it's a freeking Mall for god's sake! But whatever..
I intend to have my camera at the ready cause there are going to be tons of very hot, very drunk, slightly dressed girls/women out there falling all over the city streets and generally making complete asses of themselves, and I wanna' be the one to have record! :-D
Last night there were already some with WAY short mini skirts, tiny little tops, strutting down the mall and falling down on the sidewalk and laughing about it, saw it twice myself.
It probably would be funny IF the sidewalks weren't so filthy dirty that just the act of touching them will ruin all your clothes immediately! Wait till the regain consciousness this morning/afternoon to find they ruined their outfits!
Anyway, back to the rampant stupidity! If I get lucky and get some good shots tonight I will add them here later.
I have to work late for this but I will be getting holiday pay for it, so that's okay!
They have told me that there will be women/girls of all ages, drunks, fights, streakers, and general all around unruliness...and right in the middle of all that they intend to throw a rave! It's going to be like 1 degree outside and they are going to dance half naked in the street..This I gotta' see! Just how drunk does one need to be to not feel 1 degree? Inquiring minds want to know! :-D

Happy New Year
Well, thank God 2014 is finally coming to an end! This has been a horrifically long year for me, with unemployment and losing my best friends and the constantly being flat broke thing, I am very happy to see 2014 go away!
Now that I am employed, and happy, and I should be getting all those pieces of my life glued back together, I am looking forward to 2015 as a new beginning! :-)
HAPPY NEW YEAR To All!

It just needs said.
Okay, you know that I am working downtown on the 16th street mall and I had to work on December 25th, Christmas day, this year...One detail eludes me though...
I had to be there...Why were YOU there?
Okay, maybe not you personally, but thousands of you were out there...For what?
Aren't you the same people who are always complaining, " I never get to spend any time with my wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, kids, etc"... So...Wouldn't Christmas day have been a wonderful opportunity to do just that?
But no, instead you piled into your cars and braved the major snow storm that occurred, trudged through the muck and slop to do what?
To walk aimlessly up and down the street for no reason at all! Nothing was open, it was Christmas! Would that day have been SO much better spent cuddling up by the fireplace on the sofa with your significant other and doing what adults do? Or spending the day actually playing with your kids instead of just talking about it? Or even just have some friends over to talk and reminisce, watch the game, etc..?
I absolutely do not understand people, at all, and at this point I hope I never do!
I am a single man who has never had the opportunities that you flagrantly squander, all I have ever wanted is a child to raise and love and take care of, but I cannot stand the idea of having to deal with a woman to have one, relationships have been one steady train wreck after another every time for me, adoption isn't possible cause I am a single man with a past.
You have children that you just can't be bothered to spend time with and to teach them and to love on them every single chance you get, yet you squander those opportunities for nothing!
Anyway, I guess I'll be seeing you again real soon cause this Holiday season is still in effect and you will have many more chances to ditch your family, friends and kids to go waste your time on meaningless nothing! Have fun with that!

Home Improvement!
I am so very impressed and so excited to begin this overhaul on my room... You have to understand, I have been living outside my true element for so long that I am going insane, and have been for some time. I am annoyingly clean and neat under my usual style of living, but it has been put away for so many years now that I am about to explode. I love fixing up around the house, no I live for it! And have been denied for far too long! I love to put in the labor so I might come home from work, kick back and enjoy the fruits of my labor, literally! Check out some pics of this faux brick paneling I am going to use...

This stuff is badass! It can transform a small, dark, old room into a work of art! Now granted, I have no intention of decorating my space in any of the manners shown here, ie: furnishings, etc..., however these pics serve to illustrate some of the possibilities that this paneling is capable of.
I will be utilizing one of the pics ideas for built in shelving, as that would far better suit my needs for TV and components, etc..
God I love home improvement stuff.. How has it taken so excruciatingly long for me to finally get back to my core!

Holy Ally Way Batman!
Well, today was very interesting, yeah that's a word...interesting!
Today I was told that we need to clean up in the ally ways off the 16th street mall...Ever even seen one of these cesspools? They would scare the crap outta' most M.M.A. fighters! That's where they keep all the urine and the dead people!
Well, needless to say, that's what I did...clean the awful armpit of Denver this evening! Those fucking ally's are quite spiffy now I must say! This is an average one before;

And it after;
I know you don't think you see much difference but I assure you 8 out of 10 wino's agree with me so screw you!
Seriously though, after all the crap I have endured in my life this is a cake walk, and yep, still shickled titless to have a job! A pretty good job at that!
Time for a bit of remodeling!
Well, now that I have "basically" figured out all the "stuff" I needed for my person, and have gotten those things...It will soon become time to do my due diligence upon my living space!
I rent a "room" in a house in Littleton Colo. and I love it here.
My only issue is I haven't turned the place into "my home" as yet, due to financial instability.
Now that THAT has been overcome I can now turn this little place into a virtual palace!
My plan is simply to cover and create illusion...Here's what I mean...
I get from loes the Faux Brick Panels, 4X8 sheets, and overlay 2 walls that are horrible in this room...

Then I can add a crown moulding along the top and bottom...
And then add some 1/4 round to finish the corners and some 3/4 seal strips to seal up all the seams, etc...
And when I finish...this room will go from early neolithic caveman to absolutely beautiful, with a tiny amount of luck and butt ton of skill the finished product should resemble this:
I can't wait! I am SO looking forward to doing this! :-D

Who decides this shit?
Today on my way into work an announcement came over the train speakers..." Due to a recent event all lines south of University Blvd are cancelled"...
Okay? "recent event?" Someone got hit and killed by a train!
You may think this is harsh or whatever, but after now witnessing just how stupid some of you are, Throw his dumb ass in a bag hose off the train and lets go! Whats the fucking problem? Do we have to have a meeting? Maybe make an assessment committee!?
I work around exactly these kind of dipshits every day on the 16th street mall, walk right out into traffic, in front of trains, etc.. cause your either drunk with your friends and figure you are excused from paying any attention at all to anything... Or you are simply too busy with your fucking cell phone to bother realizing that you are about to die!
I am SO looking forward to witnessing my very own "Final Destination" moment! It's gonna' be SO cool! Don't worry though, I do have a heart and I will never allow that to happen to a kid...But you, your on your own!

Time for a change.
Well peeps, It has become all too apparent to me that my life needs to change...drastically!
I just got over the flu after not being sick with even a cold for the past 3 years. The thing tore my ass up! I have never had hallucinations, without the use of illicit drugs, EVER! Till this flu!
So, I now have a good, stable job that offers me allot of physical activity...I walk about 10 miles a night.
So, now I start looking for a decent protein powder and high octane multivitamin. Think I have a good start;
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/opt/men.html
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/opt/100soy.html;jsessionid=17E3ED149D5ADDD79044D2BE522D3037
Some have suggested I use whey but I have had so many issues with that stuff in the past. The multivitamin REALLY sounds great cause of the very high copper levels, helps REM sleep, I have frequent bouts of insomnia so that is a major selling point for me.
All I can absolutely say is,I will never allow a sickness to destroy me again, not without a hell of a fight!

My Shiny New Job...
Well, today was my first day with Consolidated Services Inc. and boy was it enlightening...Okay so here's the scoop...
We are the people who keep the 16th street mall cleaned up, thus making people, people with money, feeling comfortable being on the 16th street mall, so they'll spend it.
There seem to be major hurdles and downright landslides in that theory due to some of the foolish things that they, the 16th street mall vendors/stores, etc...Do.
First thing I noticed, as the night progressed, you get to see less and less mall security. Now stop me if I'm wrong but isn't when the sun goes down when all the bad people come out? I can assure you all the crazy ones do! The place has so many bad musicians clanging away and screeching foul noise into the air that even the children are horrified!
Homeless people seem to be nice enough anyway, but if you don't chase these people away then the spending customers will absolutely go away! You can't walk 12 feet without being panhandled or smoke bummed.
The mall owners or whatever consortium they have have definitely made some bad decisions, ie: not enough security, PROVIDING Pianos so these drunk Chopin's can bash out an off tune train wreck as onlookers stare in utter amazement! If you want to have live music than for the love of God man HIRE someone who can actually play!
Oh and one more thing...I am a smoker, have been for over 25 years, don't care if you like it, I won't put it in your face so you stay the hell outta' mine! HOWEVER! I am very VERY disappointed in my fellow smokers! Look here people...pick up your cigarette butts! Yeah it IS littering! In a 2 block spam on the 16th street mall, in 8 hours, I certainly picked up 200,000 cigarette butts! Completely Ridiculous!
I'm honestly not sure which is going to kill me first, the constant non stop walking for 8 straight hours or simply the boredom.
The most exciting thing to happen tonight was about 150 people came jogging through, like a marathon...I looked up and saw a mass of people running towards me and was immediately alarmed! In this post 9/11 world when a large body of people are running in one direction...probably a good idea to join them! It was definitely a different first day experience than I have ever had..
Now, please don't misunderstand me, I am so glad to have a job and I am in no way disgruntled, or disappointed, but I am just me...the kind of guy who notices stuff like this and just feels the need to put it down on paper, so to speak. I'm kind of looking forward to tomorrow just to see what craziness is going to come hurdling toward me.

I am employed!
Holy Cow! After almost 5 years, on paper anyway, of unemployment... I have a job!
I woke up this morning at 4:30 am, I wanted to be absolutely ready, got showered, dressed and out the door for 6:50 am, caught the bus then the train and in less than an hour....I was there! Guess I misjudged the time allotment there... GLAD I DID!
I beat the owner in there and he interviewed me on the spot.
Remember in one of my previous posts where I said "I miss the days where one man would sit down and look another man in the eyes and ask," "when can you start?" Well that is exactly what he did! No hocus pocus! No long pointless questionnaires, no nonsense, just a job!
My answer to his question was "tomorrow" his reply was "ok see you tomorrow at 2 pm then".
I am now working for the company that keeps up the appearance on the 16th street mall.
From what I understand we work in crews and are responsible for one third of the mall area and all we have to do is keep trash and whatever out of the streets and sidewalks... for $10 an hour! Plus a raise after 30 days!
I am so happy I beat that guy to work today!

Flim-Flam-Scam!
I have been using Craigslist for years now and have had great success in selling items when I needed extra cash or just got tired of an item and wanted it gone...
I have recently figured out that E-Bay is another useful tool in that endeavor, especially on items that can be shipped for a low cost.
There have always been "scammers and spammers" there but recently that number seems to have made a noticeable jump in number.
Two days ago I posted 14 items for sale on Craigslist and one has been receiving far too much attention from the aforementioned scammers...

I am selling an Art Glass collection consisting of 11 different pieces, 7 of Crackle Glass and a 4 different others, all for $40.oo.
I have never had so many people want to "send me a cashiers check" from Lithowstanwania in all my life!!!
The point, my friends, is simple...If you ever receive an invite from others on Craigslist to provide your name, address, etc... So they can send you a "cashiers check"...DON'T DO IT!
Now I am an unemployed man with no bank accounts or assets what so ever, so it befuddles me to imagine what the heck they could do with that info, in my case, besides improve my credit! LOL! No seriously, it is strange to me that people still fall for this scam.
One other time involving a job, the "man" replied to me and said he was hiring me to "watch his new home until he showed up" at an imaginary time...and when he did show up he wanted me to be his "housekeeper" plus "be in charge of his 11 year old son"!
Now the problem here is that this person has never seen me or spoken to me at all!
What kind of half wit would EVER agree to leave their child with a complete stranger?, and give that stranger complete access to their home?
Then he said that he was forwarding advance payment for two for two weeks...in the form of one of those wonderful "cashiers checks", to a person he does not know...at all!
That's exactly how I feel about that Kevin!
In other words friends PLEASE do not provide any kind of names, addresses, account numbers or any other kind of information about yourselves...AT ALL...to these people, and lets see if we can put these scamming/stealing/conniving S.O.B.'s out of business!

What are you thinking!?
I recently visited my local Subway sandwich shop at about 9:20 pm...Dinner came late that day, okay sheesh!
When I walked in I immediately noticed the "sandwich artist" was a smoking hot girl of MAYBE 19 years of age.
Under normal conditions this would have simply provided me with memory fodder for later use, However, This particular Subway is inside a shopping center, that is under construction, way back in a dark hole of the parking area in this giant, deserted construction area where no other stores are open...I was further imperiled to discover that this, kid, for the most part, was all by herself!
Question..."Do store Managers feel no moral obligation to protect their, especially, female employees? Don't you see the news?!
How would YOU feel if some rapist got her and you were the Manager who foolishly scheduled her to that shift?
What would you want to do too that Manager if you were her Father!?
People do the dumbest shit with absolutely no regard of the consequences!
If she were my Daughter, I would sit out in my car for her whole shift to make sure she was okay! That manager is obviously a jackbone!

Chipotle!*#@!
What the hell is the deal with Chipotles?!
First; every single time I go in there, be it 10 am or 7 pm and all points in between, they are flipping packed with people!!! Do you know how aggravating it is to be forced to stand in line with your half retarded son staring at my crotch sir?! SIR! (I may have to smack someone!)
Okay...finally get up there, and I'm elated cause it's kinda like being rescued from a sewer. Now I order: a bowl, to go, with plain rice...reply;white?...Me;yep...reply;a bowl?... me;YES! And almost inevitably they reach for that scoop...Me; "NO, wait...REGULAR WHITE RICE WITH NO CILANTRO"! Oh okay.
(Me, personally, I hate that stuff..It makes ALL the food taste exactly the same...Like canned asshole!)
So now he/she is back, reply;beans?...me;Pinto..
Okay,I want one order of chicken and one of steak..reply;Both?..me;YES! reply;Do you want half?...Me;No, one full chicken & one full steak!
(thinking to myself: I am so close to jumping this counter right now!)
Sir you know that's extra right?..
I cannot believe he/she has to ask people that. Are there really people allowed out in public that are that stupid? Uh Yeah, I want double what everyone else is getting and I will not pay more...REALLY?
Okay, now I want cheese, sour cream, lettuce and double guacamole..."Sir you know that's extra right? Ugchhhhh YES!
And that totals up to about $12 and change, but it is SO worth it!
My complain about chipotle's is;
First; lets try not to assume the customer is a complete moron.
Second; put the regular white rice, no cilantro, on the line with the rest of the choices. Why do they hide it under the freeking counter with the cook?
Third; I honestly think being told once a visit, " sir, this is extra" is sufficient...don't you?!

Do I get a job?
Well now, I have a job interview on Monday morning! I am real psyched about this cause it has literally been years since anyone has given me an interview!
It is at 22nd and Curtis St. downtown at 9:15 am! YIPPY! Rush hour in hell! and I have to go Buses and Train during the busiest time of the day...Not pleased by that BUT it will not kill my mood, I am tickled to death to be heard!
I leave home at 6:50 am to catch the #66 bus to the Littleton Train station, hop on the D-line to 20th & Welton and walk about a half mile and pray no one stops me or detains me or makes me late. My goal is to be there by 9 am.
The position is for custodian, though I am not sure where, as I had done many online applications for custodial positions. But that's okay! I will work on the freeking moons of Jupiter if they give me a shot!
I am so looking forward to Monday!

The Loves of my life..
It has been almost one year since my heart went away. You see, there were these two sweet, very special, little girls who won my heart and my affections..but it is over.
You see it all began as, my friend, Brian, who I used to talk with for hours about endless subjects and would pass the hours bullshiting and smoking cigarettes...He had two Daughters, Chevie and Echo, and they were, at that time, completely foreign to me.See, I never much cared for kids, not having any of my own, and never even considered the events that were about to alter the course of my life...
Brian and I were talking one morning and he said that one of their "friends" had made a promise to the girls to take them to a swim park we have in town, but cancelled at the last moment. I could feel the utter
disappointment and heartbreak in those kids as if it were happening to me...I volunteered to take them myself..and even though they really didn't know me very well, they were both so excited and happy that it effected me almost like a drug...from that day forward I endeavored to make them feel like that every chance I got.
For the next 5-1/2 years we were fast friends and we always were going somewhere and doing something new and exciting and fun. I grew so attached to them and grew to love them with my very soul. They were so caring and nice and compassionate and showed me affection that almost made me feel like I was their Dad, I cannot remember one single memory of Echo from the time she was 5-1/2 till she was 9 that she wasn't clinging to me, hugging my neck, making me carry her, etc...And Chevie was such a sweet girl kind, generous and loving, that It was an honor to get to hold her hand when we went out places. I grew fiercely protective and would have gladly died if it would save them...
Every Saturday found them at my house, weather we were going to the fun city amusement, or Elitch Gardens, or dozens of other places we frequented, or simply hanging out at my place watching movies and eating good food.
Those times were my favorite, when we just stayed in, cause I got cuddle time and those were SO cool...Sitting on the couch watching a movie and all curled up with them, all snuggly and warm, it truly made me feel as though I mattered to someone. Don't get me wrong, I LOVED going to fun city cause we would play laser tag for hours! I would go home that night and instantly fall in bed from exhaustion. It was good times!
See, I always let them make their own choices and decide all the things that came up during our visits, including giving them 3 places we could go and let them decide, good or bad, they needed to learn how to make choices and live with the outcome.
Also, Early on I made them a promise that they could do, say or talk with me about any subject, no matter what, and I would never lie to them or get mad at them... If I was not comfortable talking to them about anything then I would tell them that, they never made me do that, not once.They could spill a drink and guess what? No anger, no gripeing, we'll clean it up and move on. They could have gotten away with anything, cause I would have let them, and they knew it, but never pushed it. I just felt it was better, and made them smarter and more confident, plus, they had enough structure and discipline in their own home as their Dad was really strict and would yell at them at the drop of a hat. "When you are with me", I told them, "this is your own private sanctuary, where you can goof off, raise cain or simply get answers to your questions from a person who swears to never lie to you".
Well last year it all came to an end when things started going bad for me, financially, no work for long periods led to very few outings and very little money to take them shopping.Well, as time went on they both became weary of just coming to my place to hang out, but I could do nothing about it, but of course children don't understand that stuff...they just think your doing it on purpose.
I simply couldn't take it any more, the bickering and arguing..so after awhile I simply had to tell them that it was their choice if they wanted to visit me than I was great with that, but we were not going to be able to go any place for awhile, or they could choose to do something else on Saturdays, at least till the money came back.
Well, needless to say, we grew apart and I made the decision to let them go.
It tore my heart out and caused me depression and sorrow like I have never felt before, but I knew I had to do what was right for me, and them. As time has past I still think about them every day and remember fondly the time I was blessed to have with them, I will love you always, my bff's Chevie & Echo.
