my last few weeks
Ed tells his friends that the best day of his life was the day that he told his cheating father to get out and never come back. Mitch and Phil are incredulous that the day his father walked out for good would be the best day of his life, but Ed explains that from then on he was the man, taking care of his mother and sisters.
"So," they ask finally, "what was your worst day?"
"Same day," he says shortly, and rides off.
Seeing as I won't probably finish this for a few days I will just give you the quick summary. I also will finish the letter to my father soon...things have been busy between working like mad and trying to retain some level of healthy living outside of work. Summary: These last few weeks have been very interesting, hard, fruitful, and perplexing. Between turing 25 soon, the death of a family member, a good friend and colleague losing her job, getting lost forever, missing a ski-trip I so badly wanted to attend due to a tremendous work schedule, and just the questions and problems of my past finally catching up...it's been a rough few weeks. Yet, they've been good too...a lot of best day and worst day going on. Needless to say the picture of Clark on the left has been me several times and the right a few as well too. Especially the day I lost my best friend...I can only remember one time in the last couple of years when I cried that hard, and it's not a day I long to return to anytime soon.

For a minute there is took me a second to figure out what movie that was from. Then City Slickers popped in my head. your Bro Mike
Ps Does this have to do with Smallville or somehting else?
Definitely more about life...Ive got a ton to do tonight, so I'll have to finish this, along with the previous post, later than sooner.
Strange thing to post after a letter about you and your father. No relation between the story. But, "...I sense pain..." Happy Weezer day tomorrow.

I know Feb 15 25 years agao was one of the best days of my like!

I think you all need to wait until my post if finished before you jump on the "sad" wagon. Though a lot of rocky bumps have been in the road lately - I'm quite satisfied and happy...I'll finish the post and then you'll understand better. Also, remember, drama sells better for the audience!
Ok.. I will wait next time till you finish the post. As long a s you can assure me you are ok... I felt like you were when we spoke last (thanks for the download help) but iwas not sure when I read the newest post.. Happy Birthday I Love you!!
mom

Fell upon this blog through the Jacob's Well site. I've been going there lately, since I live just 2 blocks away now. So I see that the transition to Boston has been challenging as many would guess. I must say, embarking upon your 25th birthday, in Boston, with a couple years of teaching experience under your belt... I must say I admire your willingness for adventure, yet the commitment to a career I am assuming you love.
Shoot, I'm almost 29 and still trying to figure things out. Life is an adventure. Happy Birthday!

Fell upon your blog through Jacob's Well. I've been going there lately, especially since I live just 2 blocks away now. Sounds as if the transition to Boston has been a difficult one...as many would suspect. Embarking upon your 25th birthday I must admit, your sense of adventure (moving to Boston), yet your level of commitment (to a career in teaching, which I am assuming you love), is much to be admired. I am nearly 29 (wow, did I just say that) and I am just beginning to find a career I love and getting a real itch to see the world. Life is an adventure, its great to see you are jumping on board despite the bumps in the road. Happy Birthday!
