majic's journal

I have the distinct pleasure of going to Atlanta, Georgia on tuesday and flying back home wednesday. I'll be flying down to make sure 8 pallets of computer equipment makes it to where it's supposed to go. Yes ladies and gentlemen I'll be in Atlanta airport on the worst possible day known to man. I gotta take some pics of all the crazy motherfuckers that will be there. Usually on any given day at any given time there are thousands upon thousands of human beings there all running around like crazed lunatics trying to get somewhere. It's gonna be a trip. Wednesday before Thanksgiving should present me with an unusual display of fucking total idiots all pissed off because they are not where they want to be yet. This is gonna be fun. Pray for me!

I felt like this needed to be put out! This is major shit people. I repeat major shit. I'll be sure to document the herds of lemmings trying to be somewhere.

Here I go again... Did I say I love photography???

Yeah the last one is of me, god I am ugly, I even had to put on some cheesy sun glasses to hide my ugly eyes! =/ Yeah the self esteem is low...

I've decided to do some black and white photo's... I really love this type of photography.

Oops, I did it again...

Taken at 30,000 feet from an airplane on my way from New Orleans, Lousiana to Detroit, Michigan...

If pictures are worth a thousand words then I'm worth a million...

So here i am being all unlazy and stuff and putting the finishing touches on 3 new photos.

Because these eyes see so much more...

Last week ended with me cutting my New Orleans mission a little short. I had to leave about a week early to fly to West Virginia to see my grandmother. She is still alive and the doctors have no idea why, there is nothing that they can do for her other than give her pain medicine and stuff to make her comfortable. Things have been more than a little emotional of late.

I've had the chance to visit with family for the first time in literally 10 years... Or it feels like it. That's terrible. It's horrible that we only see each other when somebody is dying. Some of my relatives have children that are all grown up and I literally don't know who they are and they likewise. My cousin has a little 3 year old that had a birthday and we all went out bowling and had pizza. That was pretty damn sweet. I bowled like 6 games which is the first time I've bowled since I was in Seoul, South Korea. I didn't do too bad, my last game was a 188 and that was bowling the first frame right handed and the second frame left handed... w00t! I've been practicing that pretty often. It seems to impress the people watching. I kinda like it because I get freaked out when I actually do good while playing like that.

So here I am, been traveling around like a mofo... While in West Virginia my wife and I went into Ohio just to say we've been there recently and so I could add that to a growing list of places I've been since July 1st when I started my new job. The list now includes: Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Vermont, Texas, Ohio, West Virginia, Louisiana, Michigan, Illinois and Washington D.C.... Maybe I'll be visiting a state near you?? You never know. I love to travel.

I got word that I'm on track to go to Afghanistan by March 2006 for at least 6 months. This is pretty good news, I'm ready to go, Gotta go do some more good stuff you know.

No chance in hell to do any writing, I can't write when I'm home. I'll try but it's never really worked in the past. Maybe I can trick myself this time.

Looks like I'll be in Virginia for Thanksgiving visiting with my mom, sis, mother in law, father in law, sister in law...

Other than the grandmother on her death bed life is pretty damn peachy my way.
