One thing I did update about my site was an "About Me" ring on the main page, which is still pending but that's pretty much it!

The Forces.... (Fart 3)
Damn, I didn't realize it's been this long since I posted something in my damn blog!
About the forces continuing...
Before the time I spoke to Rich I believe it was (I really don't remember when it was now because it's been so long and I'm kind of behind on my life updates to put in here), I was thinking about my former girlfriend (if I can call it that because, even though we were talking on the phone a lot and online and she came down for a couple days, everything after that went capoo. Well, she kinda was my girlfriend for a bit I guess but eh), in a non-emotional way, if you know what I mean. Later that day, while I was on my PC, she popped up and IM'ed me, after we haven't chatted online for over a month. We didn't talk about much and all of a sudden she sighned off without warning so that was that. A goodbye would have been nice but no. The last time she IM'ed was to beg me to send her the PJ's she forgot at my house when she was down, which is still in my drawer. I'm sure her boyfriend she is living with (yep, that's right; living with!) can buy her a new pair and more.
A week ago, I went to my favorite pizza place in Fort Pierce and saw an old friend and professor I haven't seen in more than two years! I did one of those double (mint gum) takes (one to know one) until he recognized me and I went over there and we had a nice, wholesome chat for around 10mins. He then gave me his number so I can call him whenever (probably tomorrow) so we can hang out again because it's been a long while and it's not good for 2 cool dudes to not keep in touch because a whole lot of things has been going on in our lives since then and it ain't funny!
A few day's ago, I recieved an email from my friend Cathy which was a fwd from Tiger Direct about this barebones system from Wintergreen. It comes with the case, power supply, motherboard with cpu, cd-r/w drive for $99 with rebate. I looked at it at the site and said it was time for HP to go and to just take the shit in my HP and transfer it to that other one. I know I didn't HAVE to get this but I knew if I did, I can upgrade that PC in time much better than the HP one and I'm just getting tired of using a brand named PC anyway for reasons I'm not going to get into here right now (maybe I'll make an essay on my site one of these years about it). A main reason I got it was because this will be officially my first PC I ever built on my own. I've taken apart many PC's and swapped a crap load of stuff but never really offically started from scratch like I will be doing with this one, considering a barebones PC is one which usually needs to be put together.
About my site...
I know I haven't been doing diddly squat with it but it's because I've been going to those damn chat rooms again, which is really not worth it anymore and will discussed in another essay soon (probably a year or two also! LOL!). But I have stopped doing that again and will start to update it some more with stuff I've been meaning to do for quite some time! Stay tuned for a fun ride!!
Let's see, I started this at 12:30a and it's now.. 2:25am! LOL! Took a while but I was watching TV in between and doing laundry!
Until next time,
Good knight,
Justin

The Forces That Be (Fart 2)
Going back to where I left off in the previous post to get it over with...
So, I arranged to meet with him the next day at his office to check out his PC. I went there the next day and tried to fix it to no avail. I went home to grab the stuff I forgot and as I was on my way back, he called saying he fixed it himself but we arranged for me to help him out the next day at 10AM.
I managed to get there at about 10:05AM the next day. I didn't see his car around so I called the office... no answer. I then called his cell phone... no answer but I left a message. Here I am at his office early in the morning when I'm usually enjoying a good Sunday's rest at home and he is not here. If this was going to be too early for him, he could have said so... but didn't. I just wanted to make it at 10AM so we don't spend the whole day working on the PC because Sunday is my "taking care of shit around the house" day and I'm sure he didn't want to be in his office on a Sunday anyways.
So, I went back to my car, starting to sweat my ass off because it was pretty hot outside. I waited in my car until around 10:30AM then I decided to drive around Indian River Drv for a bit because it was getting hot in heah (because da roof was on fire! Da ROOF!)! As soon as I was about to park my car... my phone rang. It was him, of course (and a horse is a horse of course, of course, justin case you didn't know that!). Appently he had a long knight and overslept. So, he appoligized and we changed the time to 5PM.
I'm sure you people out there (even though a select 3, including myself) probably don't care nor want to here the above but it kinda falls into place with what I'm about to say here..
Which I forgot since its been a few days since I wrote this now and I had it in draft. Long story short, it kinda pisses me off when I'm on time, even a little early, for someone, mostly when it's a 1/2 hour drive, and the person doesn't even show up but then calls me an hour later after I have been sweating my ass off and wasted gas for no reason. Also, when I worked with him, he always used to get pissy for me being late and not calling so.... here he goes doing the same to me, except I wasn't in his office already with the A/C like he was and I was never really more than 5mins late anyways.
He is a pretty nice guy though, albeit too nice sometimes (if not most), as am I but now I am working on decreasing my niceness (another story to come after this... way after!). I will only be nice to mostly my family and the few friends I got; that's about it!
Anywho, I am glad I left the PI Agency when I did because shit hasn't been going the way it should have but I'm sure it will be going good soon. As his friend, I do want his business to stride (my word! LOL!), as I do mine.
Anywho, enough with that subject because I got more... comming next!
Until a few minutes,
Justin

Damn those forces that be! Damn them to hell!!
I really don't know what's up with the odd forces and strange behavior in life; I really don't.
I was going to start someplace different then this but I might as well back it up a bit (beep beep beep) to about two weeks ago...
Welp, it was some day about two weeks ago (the day will dawn on me later on perhaps and maybe I'll put it here when I get it but I doubt it because I end up forgeting about doing stuff like this), I got a call at around 12:00 in the afternoon when I was in bed still, contemplating on getting up or not. I looked at my phone to see who it was and saw it was an old friend and former boss whom I have not heard from or seen in about a year.
Not knowing what he wanted and not knowing what I wanted to say to him, I let the voice mail answer it. He left a message and I listened to it. He basically stated his name and said to please call him back because he needed my help. I got out of bed and sat there wondering what it was he needed my help with and how much trouble he could possibly be in where he had to call me, after I haven't heard from him in oh so long. I ran some thoughts through my head... "could be a financial issue" ... "or it could be a PC problem he may have" "or maybe something happened to someone and he needs my help to help that other guy" "or maybe he needs me for a case." I really wasn't sure what the heck it was so I sat around for around 30 minutes thinking about returning the call or not. If I did, it might be something I don't want to deal with anymore, it might be something bad, or maybe good. But, if I didn't, it would be another one of those things which will remain in my head. An unanswered situation I had in life I could have gotten an answer to but just let it go, not knowing what the outcome of the situation would be.
It's like the times when I got a phone call on my phone and sometimes didn't answer it because it's either too early or it's an out of location number. They don't leave a message so I wonder if it was a mistake call or somebody who wanted to talk to me but just didn't want to leave a message. Most likely, it's probably those people who want to sell me advertising or health insurance or other shit I just don't give a shit about right now.
So, after careful thought, I decided, for the reasons above and good hearted faith, to return his call. It turned out he had PC problems and needed my assistance.
Ah... to be continued...
Later,
Justin

A court is in session, a verdict is in (Fart 2)
(And NO, that's not a typo!)
To continue where I left off a couple days ago, which I didn't get to, the above title was going to discuss the day I had in court.
If you were to go back to my blog, way back to here, that will give you the background 411 about it.
So, anywho, I went to court for that at the end of July (Friday) and got there by 9AM. There were around 15 or so peeps where I was and towards the front, left-hand side, there were all the FHP's. I didn't think I saw mine there so I was kinda relieved. No show, case get's desmissed.
A few people went up and discussed their case and there was this one lawyer there handling 3-5 people at a time, sat down for 10 minutes or so, then went back up and did another 5 or so. He started to piss me off.
FINALLY, at 11:50, that's right 11:55, close to four hours of sitting and listening to everyone elses' bull, I finally heard my name being called and noticed the officer already there from before hadn't move at all. SO, I knew that was the dude who pulled my ass over.
Long stort short, I pleeded not guilty to the change of address charge and guilty to the speeding charge because since I was going more than 70, it was still speeding, which I think is a load of crock...... from the crock pot.... made of stainless steel like the spokes on a bicycle wheel. So, the "Magestrate" dropped the address change, after I confused him with it a few times, but I had to still pay the ticket fine and goto 8hrs of class.
There are more things which has been happening in my life, mostly quite good but, because of time constrainsts right now, I will continue that either later tonight or tomorrow.

Justin

Not Realizing Anyone Will Actaully Read My Blog
Welp, last night was pretty interetsing.
I didn't realize, at the time, I would ever speak to that special girl again but, like I said last night, I ended up talking to her again for over an hour. Now that we are now talking again and are in good communicado, I pretty much take back what I said about the relashionship last night. Even though some of it was true, I did miss talking to her and am glad we are talking again. Considering I don't got much friends and not ONE girl to talk to at all, it is something I kind of need in my life right now. Also, she is pretty beautiful and really fun to talk to so I am pretty flattered she wants to talk to me too. So, anywho, I would still like for her to come down to Fl one day and spend more than a few days here with me (not the 2 days like with that previous girl) and get to know her more and have her watch "Knight Rider" because she had never seen it before! ;-) I know it will be pretty hard when she leaves and goes back to Indiana and I don't like LD relationships like I said but I need some excitement in my life and, for now, this seems like the only exciting thing I got comming to me.
I am going to try my hardest to not get too emotionally attached because of the stuff already noted above but I know that will be pretty hard for me considering I like people and get attached to them pretty easily but I'm working on it!
Anywho, that's pretty all I gotta say about that for now. I'll keep all yous' updated on the status of our relationship but for now it's going much smoother than before because I'm such a cool dude! ;-P
Click here for a cute pic of her
I got more stuff to update regarding my life tomorrow

a court is in session, a verdict is in
Been a while, time to keep abreast on the latest news, views, and reviews!
Let me give you a rundown on what has happened since the last time...
First, I had to get a new battery for my car; I got stuck at the gas station and had to ask
someone to just it for me. There goes about $125 I didn't want to spend.
I've been having trouble with my front-right car speaker; it's been working on and off. After the battery in my car was replaced, I had to have my friend reset the custom settings. When this was taken place, we noticed there was no sound comming from the speaker anymore. I went to Circuit Shitty to have them check it out but when I went there, it was too crowded, so I left and called the next day and drove back over. The guy checked it out and found out the speaker was bad. I told him I got an extended warrenty with it so I took it to the service desk and told them about it. She put the reciept number in the computer and realized it was good until 12/04. She then realzed it was for the stereo and not the speakers so... long story short, I had to get two new front speakers and I opted for the 4-year warrenty this time! There goes another $100. Now that I got the warrenty... I will give these speakers 2 years then blow the shit outa them so I can go back and get a free upgrade because they went bad! ;-) I can play their game too and what a fun one it will be! I had those speakers for less than 2 years. Sheesh!
A couple days ago, the right speaker of my stereo blew too. It could be because they are a bit old now. One of these days, when my friend who lent them to me, we will go on ebay and see if there are some being sold and replace the ones inside the speakers case' with the new ones.
I started getting a bit bored of just reading my emails on my PC along with a few other repetive things so I... started chatting in the AIM chat rooms again. I know I said I'll probably never do it again because of the previous incidents but, ah, I couldn't help myself. I told myself I'm going to remain unattached and unemotional this time, which has been going ok so far but, because I'm a nice guy with feelings, it's kind of difficult. I conversated with one girl for quite a bit then she got all "pissy" and "bitchy" one too many times and always wanted to talk everytime I was on the PC because she had nobody else to talk about and didn't have a great life. So, I got a bit pissy to her and told her a few things and she has not spoken to me since. ;-) I don't have all the time in the world to just stay on my PC and chat with a girl I may never see. I also don't like LD (Long Distant) relationships either so I will never devote my time to that kind of thing anymore. After a while of trying to find some girls old enough for me to chat with, I got kind of tired to.....
welp, it's about 2hrs or so since I was trying to finsih the blog post but..... for reasons beknownst to me but only the forces of life would know... I just got a strange IM from that girl whom I was not really chatting with anymore... and about 1hr or so later, we ended the night in good terms again. I really don't know what it is which is making me want to conversate with her and have some kind of bond but I really am trying not to because I know how it will end. She's all the way in Indiana; it's like I will ever see her. She might come down to Fl to visit her grandparents and maybe come see me but that's way up in the air. Do I want it to happen? Well, yes. Will I get all emotional and shit when she does and then leaves? I don't want to but, because I'm a guy with feelings, I probably will but I'm sure I will handle it better than the last time.
It's 3:15am and I found this interesting movie on TV.
This post will continue tomorrow..

Justin

She's all the way in Indiana; it's like I will ever see her. She might come down to Fl to visit her grandparents and maybe come see me but that's way up in the air. Do I want it to happen? Well, yes. Will I get all emotional and shit when she does and then leaves? I don't want to but, because I'm a guy with feelings, I probably will but I'm sure I will handle it better than the last time.
It's 3:15am and I found this interesting movie on TV.
This post will continue tomorrow..
Later,
Justin
