Off to Washington State - 25th April 2008
Well - It has been a busy week since Abby left last Saturday
The family has bought carpet, toolbox, the skylark has been repaired, there have been a lot of different things done and completed -- Washington will be a time for me to work on my dissertation and begin a headlong dive into its completion - I will be in washington until the 4th of May then return for my brothers graduation which is May 10th from law school.
It is an exciting event - what else has been up in the air since FARMTRAC has gone bankrupt -- well nothing much except there should have been a dealer meeting in Tarboro today
Let me see everything else I am looking forward to the cool weather of Washington State and need to work to complete my work as soon as possible.

Monday - 14th April 2008 - Houston
Hello
Well I am at home today - anticipating my evening with Abby - she is coming over to visit and then we are going to Galveston tomorrow for a day by the sea -- However it is amazingly COLD here in Houston -- Not freezing but chilly for this time of year.
The high today is to be 66 F or 19 C and that is really cool for this time of year and it has made the day interesting as well as the trip to galveston. The weather should hopefully remain sunny tomorrow and also quite nice to let us both enjoy the coast --
I need to still go to home depot and also make a run to Harbor Freight this week as well work on my dissertation and get it complied -- and sorted -- I also will be taking a road trip soon to New Jearsey to pick up an anniversary gift for my dad.
Well I think this week is going alright and I am excited about this evening

Thursday in Houston -- Rainy Day
Well it is Thursday - and that means it is only 2 Days until Abby arrives at IAH -- I am so excited and So looking forward to my time with Abby. IN the meantime I need to work on my dissertation and also put in more effort on my studies and my time.
I have been distracted, as of recent, by tv antennas, resume programs, job hunting, career opprotunities, and other issues and miscellaneous distractions -- I really need to be on track with all of my stuff since there is very little time between now and June 20th 2008
The Red-Box DVD rentals have been suspended for the time being as I need to use the time in the evening to work on my dissertation -- I also need to get onto a normal day schedule -- I need to sleep by midnight at the latest and rise no later than 9 am -- shooting for 8:30 am -- I just need to get back in the swing of things -- i think it is a bit of the duloxetine and a bit of laziness on my part.
So let me see what else is going on -- nothing much -- I need to find a job, I need to complete my academic work -- and I need to relax and not stress so much about both topics -- but in the end I need to enjoy my time with abby.

Messing About the House -- Misc Work
Well today is a lazy day -- I need to get back on a schedule -- I have restarted my duloxetine and it is kicking my butt a bit -- but it will slowly keep getting better -- I woke up late this morning but then I continued working on the 57 Chevy and have removed all visible connections except for a radiator bolt which has come lose -- most likely will have to cut it
Well we are looking for a better over the air antenna for the house because of the quality of the digital convertor box which has brought and amazing picture to our old tired tvs -- but the digital tv switchover is like freeview in the UK but not as many channels are present -- i think main stream tv is missing out because the digital over the air is a means to keep people off cable and satellite -- but people will still want premiums -- but for a good picture without a contract or monthly payment these digital boxes are amazing
So let me see I need to work today -- seriously and set myself a normal schedule to the day including waking up by 8:30 am and going to bed by midnight or sooner -- I also need to return WALK HARD: the Dewey Cox Story -- to Red Box DVD rental -- this will be at walmart or mcdonalds --
I dont know what else is on the agenda today but we shall see -- mom seems to be staying in bed all day but she -- says she has not been sleeping well the previous nights --

The Los Angeles Adventure comes to an End - 8 April 2008
Hello & Welcome back to thoughts of a misunderstood --
So as u know I went to LA this weekend for the Wedding of Mariyetta and Ruslan. I met Mariyetta while visiting Louis & Clark Law School on a preview day in late 2002 or early 2003 -- I am unsure about the date -- but most likely it was during the summer of 2002.
Mariyetta lived in Irvine and I visited her one other time but we kept in contact with one another and all of a sudden out of the blue she told me she was getting married. I am happy for her and I know she is very happy especially after attending the lavish and extravagant wedding at the Romanov restaurant in Studio City.
So I arrived LA on a friday around noon - my plane was a bit late and then I made my way over to chris's house and we then caught up and went for a bite at a brazilian meat buffet. Then that evening we went to Bisby's to watch the LA lakers and Dallas Mavericks play and I was introduced to some of chris's friends.
Then chris took me to meet his cougars -- and this was interesting since the night ended with one of them receiving a DUI and the CHP being quite shady about a handoff. But then we awoke around 9 am on the saturday and proceeded to return to chris's apartment to recover and then to go and watch the Final Four at Bisbys
We watched the Final Four - UCLA v. Memphis - and this was a disappointing game for Chris and for Iana who was watching the game with us - then we went on to the crib of Iana and her boyfriend to watch the Kansas City Jayhawks v the Tarheels. It was a good game -- then I left to go to dinner with Rik and J.J. in GLendale
I met Rik and JJ at the Todai restaurant in Glendale -- however they were quite late and we had to move to BJ's Pizzeria which I believe was a much better choice. I then caught up with Rik and met JJ who doesnt seem to like me very much -- but live and let live.
Then SUNDAY - wedding day -- nothing to exciting -- went to rubios for a meal -- which was high on my list of priorities and then also went to Venice beach and then let me see what else did I discover along the way -- met some more of chris's friends -- at the World Cafe in Santa Monica -- and then rushed home to prepare for the wedding
Made the wedding my 5:20 -- Then went upstairs - felt a bit out of place since most people spoke russian and I do not but - dmitry who was sitting at Table no 6 along with amber and a undergrad friend of Mary's all made the evening quite special
The Russian wedding was quite exciting - it included - 18 or so colde startes, then 12 hot starters, then a main course (chicken kiev,newyork steak, salmon, lamb chop), then a fruit platter and a sweet tray then wedding cake. The wedding went from about 5:30 to 11:30 pm
I then ran back into chris about 2 am once home since he was out working as a professional poker player -- We rendezous at the Saints and Sinners bar down from his apartment and then all went back home to rest -- Monday was the day I leave and I knew i would be sleeping in
So Monday morning 9 am arrives -- i snooze my alarm until 10 am and then -- i take a shower and pack and prepare to leave by 10:45 -- i grab some chorizo sausage at ralphs then make my way to the airport -- then I get on an overstuffed plane and arrive in houston around 6:30 pm
So that was my time in LA - I seemed to get a bit of color and otherwise it was a good trip

Job Search / TSA / Weddings / April Anniversary - 2 April 2008
Well Hello & Welcome to another installment of Thoughts of a Misunderstood
Well - I have been looking for job openings - I have found a few I need to apply for - these range for straightforward lawyer employments to fields utilizing my degree in law and my MSc in Socio-Legal Studies -- I will need to get cracking and get a new CV uploaded soon.
Let me see what else is in the works - my mom has a TSA exam tomorrow and best of luck to her
I am off on friday to a wedding in California -- seems a good friend Mariyetta Meyers is getting married and she has invited me -- I am quite excited seems like it will be a wonderful affair
Today is my parents 32 wedding anniversary and as well the 4 year anniversary of my dads heart attack in Dallas -- so it is a bittersweet day but it remains a day to celebrate my parents being together for 32 years.
We had pizza for dinner with some hot wings -- all in all it was an adventure -- then we also switched out my itouch at the apple store and did a little bit of anniversary shopping
