Why I'm ruling:

1) I look ****in pimp today. White on white upper with the shades goin, black on black lower, flyin the trench. I look like I'm about to take out an agent. ****in a right.

2) I've got plans tonight to call Kristen, which is awesome. I kinda got into a conversation with one of Mina's friends last night too, and she turned out being about 15x cooler than I expected. Women intrigue the hell out of me. I love them. When they show interest in me the way I show it in them, there's no better feeling.

3) There is an unusually positive energy abound, and I can't quite put my finger on it. Something profound is going to happen this week. I can feel it. I've felt it since Sunday... there's an anticipation I can't quite put my finger on, and it's eatin me up.

4) I have a newer car now, which is awesome. I made my first payment this month, which is awesome. I also don't have to stare down that piece of **** Honda anymore, which is awesome.

5) Yesterday, my ex's mother came at me like a complete *****, calling me out of nowhere to yell. I have no idea how she even got my number. Bet she wishes she didn't have it now. I unleashed a verbal assault for the ages on that woman. Then I hung up on her and turned off my phone. Own3d.

6) Cold Play. What a great group. Not too sure about what has me feelin this type of music lately... just a week ago, it was Nine Inch Nails and My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult... now, it's Cold Play and Pearl Jam. I'm weird. It's gotta be chick influence.

7) Tanner's training Krav Maga now, so that means I'll have someone to beat up on in November. :ghost:

8) I got to see my daughter yesterday. :ghost:

9) There was a man out front of 7-11 yesterday. As I walked in, I noticed that he wasn't sitting cross-eyed as I'd first assume, but in fact, had no legs. He was wearing a necklace, a torn up shirt and some navy surplus pants that had been saftey pinned at the knees. He wasn't even really holding a sign or anything... and when I asked him how he was doing, his eyes just ****in lit up... like it'd been years since anyone even cared. I ended up talking to him for about 10 minutes. He showed me his necklace... dogtags... he'd been wearing them since he got outta 'nam, according to him. He said he was 66 years old. The fact that he was sitting out front of a 7-11 40 years later, legless and uncared for, after kickin yellow ass in the name of Americana in his heyday, made me furious. I bought him food, and gave him a $20. I've felt really good about that ever since. But it kinda sucks cuz it was my last $20. This compounds the good energy of today, but it doesn't make me any richer.

10) House of Champions annual camping trip is comin up in 3 weeks. In less than 2 weeks, I start a stretch of 12 days where I only work one 10-hour shift. My neighbor has two cuties from Boston headin west to keep us company for those 2 weeks. I'm telling you, it's going to be sick.

So much positivity.

39 topic posts are awesome.

i made one the other day but didn't post it.

You need to not do that. Post it if you write it. It's not like I'm gonna think you're less cool.

yeah, but it didn't have the right feel to it, it was missing something. i still have it saved i just need to fix some stuff up on it.

I may start BJJ on Saturday.

do it, i wish i could.

are you going to royce's or reylson's?

Not sure yet.

get a free class from both, they'll let you. see where you like the people the most, that counts a lot. you can have the best teacher in the world but if he and the students are dickheads, it has always been counterproductive to me.

i really wanted that vale tudo place to open up, they never did. i would actually go back to luis's place but i skipped out on december and january's payments, i would pay them if i went back but it would just be weird..i'm sure there would be an underlying hatred for me.

For some reason I always imagined you as the GnP type...

blue, stoppage from knees and elbows right?

allison, its about that time.

I've been boxing for a while, but it isnt going anywhere.

bjj is #1

no

If there was a real good BJJ school here I would probably go to it because I like the gi, otherwise I pretty much love the variety that my gym provides.

variety is always nice..when i quit my place they were going to start doing some no gi stuff. i wish i had stuck around, now i'm ****ed.

nowhere to go and no one to go with.

We don't use a gi here, I wish we would though.

i went to the royce school here to check it out and they only let me observ and said they dont allow sit in's, "what you observ is exactly how it will be" he said. oh well, renzo has his school not much farther away im trying to arrange to check out.

Mon, tues morn, wed, fri = gi
tuesday night, thursday mornin and night and saturday = no gi

soon we get muay thai

soon i will convince edson to let us use striking when we roll

i like no-gi a lot better. i think training in both compliments the other though..i think gi helps your no-gi and no-gi helps your gi.

i bet the place i went to is actually pretty cool now..the last few days they were doing some **** standing, no-gi, gi..everything.

i regret quitting..i'm a moron.

so go back i'm pretty sure they do nt even remember or care

i'll move across the country to train somewhere else rather than show my face back at that place ever again.

i'm going to go take a shower. my friend is coming to pick me up soon and i imagine we are going to go pursue the dream of obtaining a life. we haven't really figured it out yet, we've been trying for the past 6 months. i hope we solve the mystery soon, because soon all of my friends will be gone and i'm left alone..if i still don't have a life by then, i'll be ****ed.

How big is the city you live in again?

my city is small, but i live next to charlotte..and if i remember correctly, about 500K.

This topic went from me ruling and you not ruling, to you guys fighting.

Weak.
