Starting over... again

For those of you who didn't know. I have moved to Michigan with my ex wife Betty. I had a job in Ca but was homeless and didn't like it very much. Betty and I are on our way to reconciling. We still have to rescue our son from my mother. Once that is accomplished we plan on moving forward as a happy family.

Holy Crap I'm still Alive

Yes I'm still alive and finally updating this thing. I've been keeping a written journal since march 18th, 2009 and haven't missed a day. Maybe someday I'll transcribe it on here. Well just to update you all. I'm still unemployed and broke and being sued for an accident that was the other party's fault according to every person in their right mind who has viewed the evidence. Oh yeah and the other party are illegal immigrants. I swear that INS or whatever the agency is these days should be there at the courthouse IF this thing goes to trial (my lawyer doesn't think it will) so they can be deported. I have no problem if you come into this country legally. At the very least know the Fucking language and know the laws. okay rant over. How are all of you?

ramble on 1

I feel I'm slipping
into the muck and oblivion
into the void of vagueness
far from the heart of me
far from where I need to be
I try grasping and gripping
but feel myself stripping
stealing away what I want to protect
and losing all the love and respect
I try to steel myself against the pain
knowing that it will come but hoping that it doesn't
knowing what the answer is but wishing that it wasn't
tearing and quaking
breaking and shaking
losing all strength
and wondering to what length
where will I go and how far
daring to dream upon a star
