Welcome to Don's world! You may think i'm slightly touched, but welcome into my head! |

Don's World! |
| What's up folks. I just recently got a comment on one of my posts, and i felt like a kid at Christmas. SOMEBODY READS ME! Kind of a childish reaction, but damn it feels good! Felt so good it made me do something i should have been doing all along. Reading other people's blogs. Weird how that never popped into my head until i realized how bad i wanted folks to read my shit. I guess it's a " Do unto others" type thang, Which ain't a bad way to go. Hey is there such a thing as growing OUT of being an asshole?There may be hope for me yet! |
| Hope springs eternal! Boy, it is amazing what a talk with God can do for you. It's like talking to your best friend who happens to be the creator of everything! Seriously, i'm no bible thumper at all, and i definately don't believe most of the shit in the bible, that shit is man-written, by more than one man, and it's been white washed all to hell and gone over the years. Perfectly set up so that what you find in one verse can be taken the exact opposite way in another. but i digress. I believe in a higher power, and i call him God for lack of a better name, but i don't believe half the shit they put under his name, and that has served me well. I think HE goes by many names and appears differently to everyone. Anyway, when i awake i do my best to remember to thank him for breath in my body every morning. And i keep waking up! So big ups to God, Yaweh, Ganesha, Zeus, or whatever you wanna call HIM/HER, prayers are being answered, and i'm proof! |
| Ok, I may take some hits for this, but my hackles are up, and it happens almost everyday about something. As my mother once put it, i have a very logically ordered mind. If i was an alien, i would be a Vulcan, like Spock. Bad enough i'm a Virgo, right? I may also suffer from a slight ( i hope) case of OCD. So when i see someone do some shit that's not in a logical order, I lose it. I can barely conceal my anger and wonder at an individual that does shit like this. I live in constant awe of these bungling brain-dead creatures that just wander through thier day with no plan on how to make the most of their time, letting the currents of happenstance move them through the day like leaves floating down a river, slaves to whatever way the water goes. I have loved ones that fall into this catagory, and it kills me to see it. I argue with them, and , lo and behold, they suddenly become organized enough to mount an arguement that i'm sure they think proves their point, but then later that same day, if not in the same hour, i point out that not planing is why you missed your bus, missed an important appointment,or wasn't ready when an opportunity to make something good happen comes by, and all they had to do was be slightly organized in their day. Plan dinner before it's dinner time. don't get caught thinking you have hamburger for dinner when your son made it for a snack last night. If you would have planned dinner earlier and checked to see what you had, this woudn't have happened. But all my efforts to reform these people fail. Guess i will have to live by the wisdom of Reinhold Neibuhr, "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." |
| Detroit Lions are rolling! And us true Lions fans don't want none of you johnny-come-lately fuckers, you band-wagon riders, you new fans cause they are winning, to even make a noise. We (real die-hard been there thru the hard times fans) got this. And win lose or draw, ( as always) we are Honolulu blue and silver til we die! Go Lions, One Pride! |
| How are you today world? Don's World is just fine! Check this out: You know how sometimes you get a song or something stuck in your head and you just can't get it out? Well i got this movie clip stuck in mine, and it's driving me crazy! If i go home and watch it, that should do it, i hope! But i'm at work and it's going on six hours ive been like this. What clip, you ask? Ok, here goes. The movie is called Dead and Breakfast, and in the movie an RV full of young hipsters ( it's an old movie, made back in 2004.) Uma Thurman is in it, and a few other folks you would recognize. They are on the way to a wedding, they stop in this tiny town and go to a bed and breakfast spot for the night , and a zombie outbreak traps them there. In the middle of the movie, a country singer turned zombie/country singer/ rapper does a song and the zombie horde does a line dance. Fuckin crazy! I will watch the whole movie just for that scene! Lord help me! |
| correction, the title of my last entry was supposed to be Maximum effort! but some how i fucked it up. My bad. |
| Maximum effort! There are days when i feel bulletproof! And this is one of them! It just feels like i have more control of my destiny than in past years. I WILL bend circumstances and situations to my advantage and make the things i want to happen happen. Oh come on, i'm 56 years old, i know shit dont just happen like that, but if you don't believe in yourself and what you want then it damn sure won't happen. Its like the lottery, you can't win if you don't play. Plus, the odds of you winning are way greater when betting on one's self if you believe. |
| Question: Have any of you had to deal with an alcoholic that you love to death, but are finding that you now have a fight on your hands? You and alcohol are fighting to see who gets this person you love so much. Anyone with any sage advice? Anyone ever win this fight? How? Asking for myself. |
| Ok, it's 2024 yall. What we doing , going for a better year than last year, or we on the same ol' shit we was on in 2023? I'm a "Hope for the best, plan for the worst " type of guy, and i dont much believe in new years resolutions, but damn i feel different than my usual " we probably gonna catch hell this year" . Could this be MY year? i been hearing folks say this is the year of "ME". Can it be? I mean, i had an unusually chill holiday weekend, other than my Lions getting cheated out of a win in stankin ass Dallas. No worries though, we may see them again in the play-offs. Hey how you guys feeling out there? Holla at a brotha, let me know! |
