One Month.

I live away from home now, in a room I pay for monthly. The sheer magnitude of this is still setting in, but I think I've got a handle on it now. It's a weird feeling being away from home this long, even if I make semi-weekly visits back. It really is very weird, sleeping in a place that is not my childhood bedroom. It's an excellent feeling, but weird. I'm not in school anymore. Won't be again for some time. I'm working part-time, with hopes to go full-time at a Home Depot.

This is really strange. In the space of a month, my life has changed completely. I'm getting along with my family better than ever, I've traded some issues for others, and... My life has started. I suppose that's all there is to it. My life has started. It's frightening sometimes, but what can you do? You move with it, and adapt, and make sure you stay on top of it.

Until next time...

My Thoughts on Certain Matters

I appreciate honesty and I appreciate directness. I am a blunt, unrepentant asshole who would prefer to get everything that is bothering someone out in the open so it can be dealt with point by point, regardless of what sort of subject it is. Now, having said that, I'm also a forgetful person. I am not the classiest of individuals. I can be messy at times, and I can sometimes be rude without meaning to. All of these things, amongst a host of others, are character faults that I recognize and attempt to deal with whenever I can. I'd also like to think that I'm a fairly rational, logical individual, who can be reasoned with if approached calmly. That's something I like to think, though I know that when I get truly mad my logic fails me at times, and I might make an error in judgment.

So there you go. There's a slice of who I am.

All that being said now, the question comes, "Robert, what the hell are you talking about." Well, to be honest, that's the business of those involved, and those involved alone. I know just by posting this, people are going to make assumptions, but rest assured, those assumptions will neither be confirmed nor denied.

Until next time...
