Well... I did it. I told the girl whom I have feelings for all that I was feeling. I told her that even though her ex maybe coming back in the picture, just remember that there is someone else who feels something for her... probably even stronger. And that, no matter what, we'll always be friends, and nothing will change that. Ever.
So, now, the ball is in your court, Universe. I took a chance with my feelings and let it be known. Will you take this opportunity away from me? Will you steal this one, like all the others? Or will you finally allow me to have some light, to allow me to have this one, after all the others you've pushed away, after the last time I've ever felt this way about someone.
Please... let me have this one... |

Okay, okay. It's been awhile since I updated on here, and so, given the probable lack of time, I'll give a quick update.
Brother and family stayed in my closet(the basement) for a month, until sister-in-law had second child. My uncle had me tell him that he couldn't bring the baby down there. For my efforts, I get my ass kicked. Cuts and scars for life, WHOO-HOO!
Had an interview with a security company. Got the "We'll call you" response.
Rotating(or trying to) hanging out between Juan and the fellas, Best friend #1 Francisco, and Best friend #2 Kat. It is far from easy. I can do it, though.
I figured out what drains my energy: My house. I hate it there. I need a job, to move out, damnit...
Oh yes. I'm tired as hell. Went out last night for a friend's birthday. We took her to the coolest spot in Greenwich Village: Cafe Wha?. |

Microsoft has announced that one of their top-selling video game series, "Halo" will be coming to theaters. Click here for the entire story.
However... this is how I would cast the movie:
Master Chief : Viggo Mortenson (because you need someone who fits the action hero mold) Arbiter(voice) : Keith David (you don't fix what isn't broke) Sergeant Johnson : Samuel L. Jackson(watch the movie "Basic", and you'll see why) Captain Keyes : Hugo Weaving (look for Hugo Weaving's pic and Capt. Keyes pic. they look alike) Cortana : Victoria Beckham(the british voice is just so sweet) Miranda Keyes : Michelle Rodriguez(she's a great actress)
I only have those six thought up right now. Don't know if I'll try anyone else... |

(CHAPTER 1)
Seven o’clock in the morning And the rays from the sun wakes me I’m stretchin’ and yawnin’ In a bed that don’t belong to me And a voice yells, “Good morning, darlin”, from the bathroom Then she comes out and kisses me And to my surprise, she ain’t you
Now I’ve got this dum look on my face Like, what have I done? How could I be so stupid to be have laid here til the morning sun? Lost the track of time Oh, what was on my mind? From the club, went to her home Didn’t plan to stay that long
Here I am, quickly tryin’ to put on my clothes Searching for my car keys Tryin’ to get on up out the door Then she streched her hands in front of it Said, “You can’t go this way” Looked at her, like she was crazy Said, “Woman move out my way” Said, “I got a wife at home” She said, “Please don’t go out there” “Lady, I’ve got to get home” She said, her husband was comin’ up the stairs
“Shh, shh, quiet Hurry up and get in the closet” She said, “Don’t you make a sound Or some shit is going down” I said, “Why don’t I just go out the window?” “Yes, except for one thing, we on the 5th floor” “Shit think, shit think, shit quick, put me in the closet” And now I’m in this darkest closet, tryin’ to figure out Just how I’m gonna get my crazy ass up out this house
Then he walks in and yells, “I’m home” She says, “Honey, I’m in the room” Walks in there with a smile on his face Sayin’, “Honey, I’ve been missin’ you” She hops all over him And says, “I’ve cooked and ran your bath water” I’m tellin’ you now, this girl’s so good that she deserves an Oscar
Rolls her in the bed And start to snatchin’ her clothes off I’m in the closet, like man, what the fuck is going on? You’re not gonna believe it But things get deeper as the story goes on Next thing you know, a call comes through on my cell phone I tried my best to quickly put it on vibrate But from the way he act, I could tell it was too late He hopped up and said, “There’s a mystery going on And I’m gonna solve it” And I’m like, “God please, don’t let this man open this closet”
He walks in the bathroom And looks behind the door She says, “Baby, come back to bed” He says, “Bitch say no more” He pulls back the shower curtain While she’s biting her nails Then he walks back to the room Right now, I’m sweating like hell Checks under the bed Then under the dresser He looks at the closet I pull out my Baretta He walks up to the closet He comes up to the closet Now he’s at the closet Damn he’s opening the closet…
(CHAPTER 2)
Well... Now he’s staring at me like As if he was starin in a mirror She yells honey let me explain He says you don’t have to go no further I can clearly see what’s goin on Behind my back, in my bed, in my home Then I said wait a minute now hold on I said mister we can work this out She said honey don’t lose control Tried to get him to calm down He said ho I should’ve known That you would go and do some bogus shit up in my house But the Christian in me gave you the benefit of the doubt I said we need to resolve this Then he stepped to me, I’m like whoa There’s a reason I’m in this closet He says, yeah like what, are you talkin clothes I met this girl at the Plagis club And she told me she didn’t have a man Then he said man please, I’d kill you if you didn’t have that gun in ya hand And I said but yo chick chose me He said don’t give me that mack shit please His phone goes off and then things get a little more interesting He steps a little closer I point my gun and says I’m not the one you after He says son I bet you didn’t know my man Did she tell you that I was a pastor I said well good that’s betta right Why can’t we handle this Christian- like And I started to put the gun down Til I saw his face still had that frown She started cryin, sayin baby I’m sorry Then he said baby not as sorry as you’re gonna be I started inchin out He says no I want you to see this Said I gotta get out this house He said not til I reveal my secret I’m like what is goin on inside his head Then he takes his phone and calls somebody up and says Hello, Baby, turn the car around Listen I just need for you to get right back here now (Click) He looks at me and says well since we’re all comin out the closet I’m not about to be the only one that’s broken hearted She said what do you mean And he said just wait and see I said somebody betta talk to me And then his phone rings He picks up and somebody says sweetheart I’m downstairs And he’s like I’ll buzz you up I’m on the fifth floor, hurry take the stairs And I’m like who is this mystery lady that you’re talking to He says in time you both will know the shockin truth Baby this is something I been wanting to get off my chest for a long, long time Then I said nigga Imma shoot you both if you don’t say what’s on ya mind He said wait I hear somebody comin up the stairs And I’m lookin at the door He says I think you betta sit down in the chair I says I’m gonna count to four 1, he says mister wait 2, she says please don’t shoot 3, he says don’t shoot me 4, she screams Then a knock at the door, the guns in my hands He opens the door, I'd be god damned it’s a man

Okay, all of last week, I was out of the house, only going home to change once. You could say I took a vacation from my family, and those of you that know me personally, know I hate my family. Anyways, on Tuesday, my cousin, Denise, calls Juan looking for me, since that's the only number that they have. I call back, and she asks me "What happened to you?" and "Where have you been?" "I'm fine", I tell her.
Then, on Friday, she calls again. "Where have you been?" "I haven't seen you in awhile, are you okay?" "Are you coming home tonight?" I answer her questions, and I hang up, not too happy.
Juan: What happened? You look sad? Me: No I call home, just to let them know I'm alive, and I get the third degree! I was just letting them know I was okay. I didn't expect a Spanish Inquisition...
I expected Cardinal Ximinez to run in, with Cardinals Biggles and Fang, and say:
Cardinal Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.
Me: I didn't expect a Spanish Inquisition...
Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms - Oh damn! [To Cardinal Biggles] I can't say it - you'll have to say it. Biggles: What? Ximinez: You'll have to say the bit about 'Our chief weapons are ...' Biggles: [rather horrified]: I couldn't do that...
Me: I didn't expect a Spanish Inquisition...
Biggles: Er.... Nobody...um.... Ximinez: Expects... Biggles: Expects... Nobody expects the...um...the Spanish...um... Ximinez: Inquisition. Biggles: I know, I know! Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. In fact, those who do expect - Ximinez: Our chief weapons are... Biggles: Our chief weapons are...um...er... Ximinez: Surprise... Biggles: Surprise and -- Ximinez: Okay, stop. Stop. Stop there - stop there. Stop. Phew! Ah! ... our chief weapons are surprise...blah blah blah. Cardinal, read the charges. Fang: You are hereby charged that you did on diverse dates commit heresy against the Holy Church. 'My old man said follow the--' Biggles: That's enough. [To me] Now, how do you plead? Me: Innocent. I'm not Catholic, you moron. Ximinez: Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Oh... sorry...
(This really happened... except the part about the cardinals. That was a bit from Monty Python's Flying Circus. Funniest British comedy. EVER.... |

I feel like I lost a member of my family. ABC News anchor Peter Jennings died last night of Lung Cancer.
Taken from Yahoo!:
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Peter Jennings, a high school dropout who rose to become prime-time anchorman for ABC News and whose career spanned five decades, has died of lung cancer at 67. The Canadian-born Jennings, host of ABC's "World News Tonight" since 1983, died on Sunday at his home in Manhattan. The newsman announced in April he had lung cancer and was beginning chemotherapy.
"Peter died with his family around him, without pain and in peace. He knew he'd lived a good life," his family said in a statement.
Jennings was the last of a generation of long-serving lead anchors for major U.S. broadcasters.
"He was a superb writer," colleague Barbara Walters said in a special broadcast on ABC. She also recalled that "no one could ad-lib like Peter."
Jennings had a 41-year career with ABC after joining the network in 1964. He soon went head-to-head with the toughest competition in the business, anchoring the prime-time news from 1965 to 1967 at a time when Walter Cronkite on CBS and the team of David Brinkley and Chet Huntley on NBC were dominant.
Jennings established the first American television news bureau in the Arab world in 1968, serving as ABC News' bureau chief for Beirut for seven years. He had a major role in the network's coverage of the Summer Olympics in Munich, when Israeli athletes were taken hostage.
After the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, Jennings anchored ABC broadcasts for more than 60 hours. The coverage garnered awards and critical acclaim. TV Guide called him "the center of gravity."
"For four decades, Peter has been our colleague, our friend, and our leader in so many ways. None of us will be the same without him," ABC News President David Westin wrote in announcing Jennings' death to colleagues.
CANCER DIAGNOSIS
The Toronto-born newsman, who smoked when he was younger, stunned colleagues when he informed them of his illness in an e-mail on April 5. He said he would begin a program of chemotherapy the following week.
"There will be good days and bad, which means that some days I may be cranky and some days really cranky," he wrote.
ABC noted in its special broadcast that Jennings regularly called into the program during his illness, offering suggestions, comments and criticisms.
He had hoped to return to his anchor duties, but never did.
Ted Koppel, anchor of ABC's "Nightline" program, recalled the anchor's dashing good looks, and noted a resemblance to the actor Roger Moore in some of the James Bond movies.
"He and I joked the last time I went up to visit just a few days ago that between the two of us we'd put in 83 years at ABC News." Koppel said. "He was a warm and loving and surprisingly sentimental man."
Jennings was named anchor and senior editor of "World News Tonight" in 1983. He won numerous awards and honors in his more than 20 years in the position.
"It's impossible to believe that he is not going to be with us," Walters said.
In a tribute to Jennings on Monday, President Bush said he was saddened by the anchorman's death. "A lot of Americans relied upon Peter Jennings for their news. He became a part of the life of a lot of our fellow citizens."
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called Jennings "my close, personal friend" and "a man of conscience and integrity." She added: "Peter Jennings represented all that was best in journalism and public service. His reporting was a guide to all of us who aspire to better the world around us."
Jennings, the son of a noted Canadian broadcaster, Charles Jennings, became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2003 and held dual citizenship.
The passing of Jennings was the final chapter as an era of broadcast anchors with a commanding on-air presence came to an end.
NBC's Tom Brokaw stepped down in December after 21 years as anchor of "NBC Nightly News" and Dan Rather ended his 24-year career as CBS lead anchor last month, after a discredited report on President Bush's military service.
Jennings is survived by his wife Kayce Freed, and his two children Elizabeth, 25 and Christopher, 23. (Additional reporting by Joanne Allen and Doina Chiacu in Washington)
I remember watching World News Tonight at an early age with my mom. Our routine was after our cartoons and homework, we'd watch Channel 7 Eyewittness News, and then ABC World News Tonight with Peter Jennings, here in NYC on WABC/Channel 7. We never watched NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw, or CBS Evening News with Dan "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" Rather. It was always ABC.
This is one of the reasons that I'm sad. A part of my memories of my mom, when she was healthy, has just left this world. Another reason is because he died the way my grandfather did. Of Lung Cancer. That hurt me even more. I believe he lived a good life, though. Not just a world-renowned anchor, but as a person.
Goodbye, Mr. Jennings. Rest in Peace. My mom and my grandfather will be ecstatic to meet you. |

Yesterday, I think I took the final step in "moving on". And you know what? What was it I was angry about again? To tell the truth, I don't think that I care anymore. Why? Because I saw something, that honestly, I don't think I brought.
I saw an unforgettable look of happiness on her face. And I was happy.
I'll just say this: I'm more than happy for you. You'll always be Best Friend #2, and you will always have that special place in my heart. Thanks for the fun times, and thanks for the memories. Good luck and congrats.
P.S.: Don't fuck this up. Either of you...
P.P.S.: I'll get you back for bringing up that embarassing moment from H.S. You know which one! You said you wouldn't bring it up, again damnit! Not Cool! |

Sheesh. Yesterday was tiring. Here's a quick recap:
11:00 - 3:00: Stood in line at Madison Square Garden to get my voucher for 2 free tickets to any New York Ranger game this season. Mingled with fans, did some Ranger chants, got autographs(including a picture with Ranger legend Rod Gilbert, I'll post that as soon as I get access to a scanner), and got a free hot dog and soda. Speaking of the soda, I advise no one to try the new Coca-Cola Zero. It tastes like crap.
3:00 - 7:00: Walked with Juan from 42nd and 6th(Bryant Park) down to Chinatown, where we were supposed to meet with someone who was coming to the Primerica meeting, but instead, met with someone I did not expect. And yes, I was civil and nice, and am ready to be that way from now on. Took train back to Penn Station, and decided to join Juan at meeting.
7:00 - 10:00: Sat at meeting, and, I admit, was further convinced to join. Not just by Juan, not just by Juan's cute co-worker, but by the speakers and their presentations. Afterwards, I gained another client in the computer business I'm starting up with Juan and Kareem. Exited train and went home.
So... how was your day? |

Okay. There was some backlash from my last post, and for that, I'm apologizing.
I'm sorry for telling my sex life over the internet. It honestly is no one else's business, except me and the one I did it with. Certain people, especially those who've screwed me over, and have made me into the bad guy in things, should be, and are, on a need-to-know basis: They don't need to know. I'm not a tell-tale book, nor am I a "puppy". Those ships have sailed into the west. My love life and my sex life are my own business, and will stay between me, whomever else I deem worthy to tell, and the person I did it with.
Because of what happened, I am removing that post, and possible concurrent posts from this journal.
And to the one I got involved in this, I am sorry. If I hurt you, I didn't mean it. I never meant to break your trust. I hope you can give our friendship a chance. I'm not the jerk/asshole some turn me out to be. If you ever want to talk to me again, give me a call.
Oh, and to the one who commented: You, my friend, have no right saying anything you've said about her. Honestly, she's more reliable a friend, as of recent, then you have been for a good while. You've pushed a button I, honestly, never thought you pushed. She may not be anything like you, but you know what? As of recent, that's a good thing. The way you've been the past few months, you're beneath her. Talk to me when you've changed back. Hope you and Jabroni have a good life. |

Lord knows if you'll ever see this, but I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. A lot of shit has happened in the past two weeks that has made me realize a few things, that were pointed out to me once before.
For the past two years and some change, I've been wanting to go to war with you. You took away something that I thought was irreplacable. I was wrong. According to some people, you exposed a flaw in what was there. At first, I didn't appreciate it, and like I said, I wanted to hurt you immensely. I kept living in denial, with hopes that things would change or would soon come around. I was wrong, again. Constanly, I wanted to do damage to you and your life. But, something happened that made me change my mind, and my ways. I'm not sure if it's a new feeling, a realization, or a epifiny(I know that's spelled wrong), but it made me open my eyes to the truth, and it showed me what and who my real friends are. For that, I wanted to say thank you.
However, you still did what you did, and I can never really forgive you for it. I, still, consider you an asshole, hands down. But, I no longer hold the harsh malice towards you like I did before. Something, and maybe someone new has entered my life, who knows. I'll follow this road, and see it to the end. We may never break bread, or cross each other's path again in life, but if we do, I'll extend my hand to you. Until then, take care of what you now have. Cherish it. It's priceless.
Adios, pardner.
P.S.: If this is someone new, try not to steal this one, please? For me?
The apology was for someone I've wronged, but this is to clear up something with/about someone else:
It's not my fault.
I'm not the one who proved to be flaky and dishonest. I tried to be friends, even tried to keep hangin' out. But, it's not cool when someone pushes you back for something else, knowing you were looking forward to it, just because it got you out of the house, and with one of the people you consider a "best friend". I admit, I did something wrong, and I'm sorry for it. But, it was my goddamned birthday... I overlooked the fact that I didn't get anything for Christmas from this person, even though I got them someting. I overlooked the fact that the person didn't get me anything for my birthday, even though I got them something for theirs. But, you couldn't, at least, come to a party for two of your friends, even though, you know they'd be there for you? That's low.
I know that you're sitting there, reading this, justifying your actions, and somehow blaming this on me. But, you can't. And the truth of the matter is this:
It's not my fault. |

| The Week That Was: Birthday Edition |
|
|
| 04:30pm 14/06/2005 |

mood:  calm music: Some song from Street Fighter Alpha Cisco's playing
|
June 8th has come and gone, and so, now, I'm 23(I really do hate that number). The past week was pretty eventful. Here's a brief of what happened, starting the 7th of June!
Tuesday, June 7: I got drunk really quick off of the insane combo of two Tequila shots and no food, all day. Dumb move, yes. But fun!
Wednesday, June 8; My Birthday: Gained cash from Aunt Jo, then went over to Francisco's place, where his mom and his sister, Yvette, took me to dinner. That was nice and cool of them. Afterwards, met back up with Cisco and Christina(the girlfriend from the smelling incident), and they told me that they are engaged. I'm not sure if it's to be married or in Mortal Kombat, but they are engaged(kidding, it is to be married). Then, I saw my grandmother when I got home, and got more cash.
Thursday, June 9; Brooklyn/Queens day/Shamar's Birthday: Picked a movie I've always wanted to see: "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"(Funny as hell). Hung out with Cisco, then went to a basketball game with Juan and Shamar, followed by viewing of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail".
Friday, June 10: Did a favor for Bonnie that day, and got a Yankee Baseball clock for my b-day(which I forgot when I was there, I will pick it up soon!). Watched more of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", followed by "Monty Python's Flying Circus".
Saturday, June 11: Juan held a cookout, in honor of Shamar and I's birthdays, and Juan and Shamar's promotion within Primerica. Things happened that day, things you didn't think/wouldn't believe, which will be mentioned in a future post.
Sunday, June 12: Was supposed to go over to James' place to watch ECW: One Night Stand, but his landlord is being an ass. He doesn't want to fix anything in their apartment, but wants rent. James is refusing to give rent. So, the landlord cut off the power, and James, my sister-in-law, and my niece stayed at my sister-in-law's mother's place.
Monday, June 13: Nothing really happened. Just hung out with Cisco and Chris.
And now, today. Cisco and I are going to go shoot pool later on tonight, and probably drink and cause trouble. Good times!
And now, I leave you with a quote from a great movie: Monty Python and the Holy Grail:
Sir Galahad: Zoot! Dingo: No, I am Zoot's identical twin sister, Dingo. [He tried to get past her] Dingo: Where are you going? Sir Galahad: I seek the Grail! I have seen it, here in this castle! Dingo: No, oh no! Bad, bad Zoot! Sir Galahad: What is it? Dingo: She has been setting a light to our beacon, which, I've just remembered, is Grail shaped. It's not the first time we've had this problem. Sir Galahad: It's not the real Grail? Dingo: Oh, wicked, bad, naught evil Zoot! Oh, she is a bad person, and she must pay the penalty! [Turns to camera] Dingo: Do you think this scene should have been cut? We were so worried when the boys were writing it, but now we're glad! It's better than some of the previous scenes I think. Left Head: Our was better visually. Dennis: Ours was committed, it wasn't just a string of pussy jokes. Bridgekeeper: Get on with it. Tim: Yes! Get on with it! Army: Get on with it! Dingo: Oh, thank you, thank you! God: Get on with it! |

mood:  drunk

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen and down the mountain side The summer's gone and all the flowers are dying 'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so
And if you come and all the flowers are dying And I am dead, as dead I well may be You'll come and find the place where I am lying And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me. ("Danny Boy". No one knows who wrote the song, but it is too beautiful to be written by man, but by angels...)
When Irish eyes are smiling sure it's like a morning spring In the lilt of Irish laughter you can hear the angels sing When Irish hearts are happy all the world seems bright and gay And when Irish eyes are smiling sure they steal your heart away
(When Irish eyes are smiling sure it's like a morning spring) Honey you know the springtime of life is the sweetest of all There is never a real care or regret And while springtime is ours throughout all youth hours Let us smile each chance we get When Irish hearts are happy... (Hank Locklin: "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling")
