When a beaver stubbs its toe...

Sad Monkey..

For anyone that normaly reads my blog I'm sorry there hasn't been anything good lately. Not that I'm to sure there was anything good to begin with.

In anycase I have been in the dumps. The old saying, "When it rains it poors." could not be more true. I'm sure a ray of sunshine will shine through soon. We'll just have to wait and see. Wish me luck.

Goodbye..

If the goodbye isn't hard to say than the hello is not worth remembering.

Bunny

My son got a new bunny from his cousins this weekend.
This is not what it looks like.

Super Hero...

I don't think there is any person out there that at one point in their life didn't want to be a super hero. We think of all the cool things we could do and how much fun it would be. Well we are all probably wrong. Just think about when you were a kid and couldn't wait to become an adult. Man no one was going to tell you what you could or couldn't do, I can stay up late, eat whatever I want. Being an adult was going to be so cool! Now we all want to be 8 again. Because when you were 8 you could be a super hero or anything else you wanted to be. If you wanted to put on a cowboy hat a red towel for a cape and yellow gym shorts and step out the front door to face the world, well no cared and it was ok. Let me tell you after a certain age people start to care when you do stuff like that.
I don't want to be a super hero anymore. Being me is a pretty tough job sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I really like being me. I have the best kids in the world, my girlfriend couldn't be a more amazing person even if I had wished for it. I'm also not incredibly hideous either. So being me is not so bad but it's not easy. And I'm sure everyone can say the same. So if anyone offers you the opportunity to strap a nuclear powered rocket to your back and tells you to go save the world...take a couple seconds to think it through before you do. (But if you do strap that puppy on, drop me a note and tell me how it was.)

Monkey Wisdom:
"Be careful what you wish for you might just get it."

Following your own advice...

You ever do something really stupid and wish you could turn back the clock? (I know we all have).
Well you can't go back but you can learn from you mistakes and not make them again and hope the people you care about can forgive your stupidity.
When people tell me about stuff like this and ask me what to do I usually tell them to suck it up admit when they're wrong and deal with the consequences. The advice is much easier to give than it is to take even from yourself.

I think this little piece of "Monkey Wisdom" is appropriate here:

" Better to be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and prove it."

Time off...

It's been a little while since I posted anything (not that anyone is reading this) but for the sake that someone might run across this here we go.
Life has been busy, family stuff, wanting to spend as much time as I can with my girlfriend. And trying to spend time with the kids. Anyway, life goes on.
I don't really have much to say except the price of gas is outragous. Thank you Mr. President! And for the people that think he has nothing to do with it I say "Wake up and smell the BS!"
It's only going to get worse people.
Here is a piece of monkey wisdom,
"If the grass is greener on the other side, someone spread allot of crap to make it that way."

Squid Boy

Here is a quick drawing I did for my son. He always asks me to draw strange things which is really cool. I'm not much into coloring with colored pencils so the color is not that great.
