I guess I should have known better. A woman that I am interested in lets me down.

Again.

So about two weeks ago I went to the 311 and Snoop Dogg concert. While I got the tickets to this concert in a very inauspicious way, I do believe that it turned out well in the end. There was a tremendous amount of reefer toking going on and lots of good looking ladies. Seems like an event in which everyone wants to go. Way too crowded, but nonetheless it was a very good time. Snoop Dogg played some of his older music which really got the crowd going. You could tell all the white kids in the crowd were loving it. I spent most of my time out on the lawn trying to inhale as much as possible. I don't think I will be attempting to go to another large event like that anytime soon again, but it was pretty worthwhile this go round. Everyone had told me how fun 311 could be and it surely was. I guess I just would rather get out of town and see a show in someone else's city.

Work could be a lot better. Lots of discontent among the department, mainly because of the actions of our superior. Maybe I can find a position in another department. That might be good.

I was suppose to go to Stone Mountain today. Didn't happen due to various circumstances of the person I invited to go with me. I think maybe I should give up on this person. They say they care, but I just don't see it.

311 & Snoop !! Was awesome. I'm going to bed right now though, so any kind of creative writing will have to wait till another day!

Work was long last night! Very boring! Braves got bashed, I do believe the season is over.

I worked out today, felt great! I missed yoga though. I want to make it to that class but I'm too shy to walk in late. I'll just have to be there on time.

311 coming soon, very exciting!

This was a reply to someone's message over the internet and after reading it and realizing that I said waay too much, I figured why not put it on my blog. It explains who I am and gives a pretty good idea of my beliefs.

wow, you don't know how to swim?? that's really too bad. what better excuse to be almost naked?

I enjoy the arts, but poetry isn't high on my list of favorites. I enjoy good paintings, mostly random stuff. I like Van Gogh and Dali, mainly Starry Night. I love that painting.

I'm into photography, always have been. I have lots of my own photos on my computer. I use a Rebel SLR digital. It's nice to have a digi SLR so you can take as many photos as you want (atleast until your mem card fills up).

I am not a religious person. I have strong views on spirituality, but I am as far away from being a christian as you can be without being an immoral person. To put it in a nutshell, I don't believe the Bible word for word and I don't really believe everything christians in general would have you believe, but I do have christian morals.

mainly I believe in karma. what you put forth is what you will receive.

I try to enjoy life as much as possible because I know it will not last forever. that means that I do not have a problem trying things that other people are afraid of.

I'm a sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll type person. I believe in moderation. Try anything, but don't ever over do it.

I love sports, I love art, I love my friends. I like what most guys like, which means I like cool cars, videogames, and going to the bar.

I don't like complex relationships, but unfortunately those don't seem to exist when it comes to women. it's more important to me to just have someone that understands who I am and loves me for that and nothing else.

I don't have a lot of money, but I've never felt like that was the most important thing in life.

I love to travel and I've been all over the eastern united states. I want to go international but have been unable to so far.

I love animals, I work part time at a vet clinic. I also work for an airline full time. I love baseball.

I love smoking weed.

I love my family and will never let someone come between me and them.

I have two brothers. I live in a house with my uncle and my mother, both of them are flight attendants and I work in flight operations for an airline as well so we're all involved in the airline industry.

I love to write, but hardly ever do so anymore. I also love to read books. Mostly fiction, but sometimes a biography. History intrigues me to no end. As does psychology. I'm a nerd at heart, yet I love playing the jock. I love sports.

I love music too.

That's all for now, I'm going to bed.
goodnight

I almost got ran off the road by a tractor trailer on Friday. I was coming home from work and the motherfucker forced me to slam on my accelerator because of how fast he was coming up behind me. Then after I had gotten over to give him the lane, he started to come over into the lane I was in. I was pissed.

I'm working five days this week, so that means less time for days off. More money though which is always nice. Hopefully another update sometime soon.

311 coming soon, I'm excited!

Life is all about being happy. I have found happiness in what my life is now. It's not complete happiness, but I enjoy what I have while I have it.

What's really hard to understand is that there is always a desire to have a partner. For me, I have always struggled with finding that person. Perhaps it was because the person I was with just wasn't working out or maybe it's because of the examples I see around me (lots of divorce).

I have loved before and I know that things happened for a reason and that's why those relationships are no longer. It is just difficult to look back upon things and realize that what you had was special but either you weren't in the right moment in your life to keep it or things in your life kept you from it.

I was thinking today about my ex-girlfriend and it's funny some of the things you will remember. I thought about walking through the dorms with her and how she use to have such a child-like personality. She had a great personality and while she was young, it was not a bad thing to have described her as childish. She was fun-loving and just enjoyed small goofy things. I really appreciated the things that she brought to my life. She made me realize that being a child sometimes was exactly what life is about. I just hope I provided her with some things that she appreciated as well. I thought about the moments I had with her and thought about how I missed it, but then I thought about the situation we were in and the adversity that we went through. We just weren't a good match at the time.

The same goes with the girlfriend I had before that.

Both women were wonderful and if given the right circumstances, I think either could have been a wonderful wife, but there was always something that stood in the way of allowing that to happen. I have always been independent in mind, but never in body. I live with my mother, even if it is beneficial for both of us, it is difficult to state that I am a grown man and independent when I still live with one of my parents. It's not like I am afraid to move out on my own. It's just difficult. Financially it just isn't smart. I could go out and get an apartment on my own, but I would be spending all my money just to pay the bills. Not to mention I would still have a million animals to take care of and where would I put them?

Good excuses I guess, but then I think about what I'm doing with my money and time now and I wonder what exactly I am trying to do in my life. I strive to be a good person and to keep good karma on my side but I have never been able to truly be successful. My relationships have failed for a number of reasons. One because I held on too tightly, another because I never could commit or let go of the past. Now that I think about it, a good number of potential relationships ended because I couldn't let go of my first relationship.

Add on top of that the fact that I can't ever save more than $1,000 at a time, life just really seems tough when you're looking at the top of the mountain all the way from the bottom of the valley. It's just funny because I am as happy now as I think I have ever been. I have a good number of friends, I have my family, and I have my health. I have a job which pays me decently and provides me with the benefits I need to maintain a healthy life. I'm even putting part of my paycheck every month into a 401k. I almost forgot about that.

I wonder if maybe I have left my life with so many open ends, meaning that I don't have a serious relationship or any worldly possessions that can keep me tied to one place. Perhaps I am waiting for that one moment to take my entire life and whisk me away to somewhere else. Or maybe not just a moment, but a person. I am happy, yet I always yearn for the yin to my yang. ??

I have had it once, but it never seemed to be exactly right. I always try to tell myself, don't sweat the small things. Stop looking and it will come to you. Focus on the here and now, enjoy life and allow what comes to come. But you always wonder, don't you?

Life is good. But I'm still here wondering. I wonder what those old souls that I have met are doing. I wonder who will come into my life next. And I wonder where tomorrow will take me.

University of Georgia football schedule for 2009 season

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 07:06:00 +0000

So tired. Terrible sleep schedule. Braves season seems over to me. 2009 could be great if they got their act together and got healthy, but since when does that ever happen?

I'll try to post tomorrow. I'm too busy making pages for the UGA football schedule and a quotes page.

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 08:46:00 +0000

My places of interest.

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 16:07:00 +0000

It's my off day and I am chilling hard! I woke up at 12:00, but who can blame me when my sleep schedule keeps me up until 4:00am? I cleaned my dog's ears last night and wow am I glad I did, those things were disgusting. If you didn't know, I use to/still work part time as a veterinary nurse at the Banfield of Morrow. I enjoy the job, it's just kind of a change from my full time job. Instead of working with bitchy people I can work with animals. Animals can be a bitch, don't get me wrong, but most of them are just happy to be alive. It's a great attitude to see. I love seeing all the different breeds that come in and when I see pets with good temperaments it makes my day because while you're working on the animal you can love on them too. It's a good way to relieve stress as they are always happy when someone gives them attention.

I have been working at ASA for seven months now. I have gotten to the point where I am fine with the job in terms of the stress level. It can be really hectic some days, but once you learn the job and become proficient at it, it really isn't so bad. I have yet to meet any cute flight attendants though! That really needs to change.

I am going to the Braves game tomorrow with some of my co-workers from Banfield. It's going to be a good time I am sure, but of course I have an extra ticket with no one to take it. Sometimes I feel like I repulse people cause I can never get people (females I'm attracted to) to go places with me! But fuck that, I know what's up.

That's enough for now, I'll hit this back up sometime later.

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 22:00:00 +0000

Another day, another dollar. Sitting here at work just relaxing. The day has been progressing decently. I am trying to figure out who is going to go to the 311 concert with me. I bought two tickets with the idea that a certain person was going with me, but as it turns out they didn't want to go after all. Kind of funny considering they brought up the idea of going! That's okay though, they explained to me why they weren't feeling it anymore and I totally agreed with their reasoning. Just sucks that I had already bought the tickets. Overpriced tickets on top of that! All is well though as I am sure that I will find someone to take the ticket.

Spain won the Euro Cup 2008. Sucks I didn't get to watch the finals, but I did get to watch part of the Germany versus Turkey game. That was a great match. Turkey really put the heat on Germany by scoring a late goal to tie the game, but as it turned out Germany had something in store themselves and pulled the game out. Soccer really is interesting to me. So many people find it boring but I enjoy the pace of the game. No commercials, the crowds are superb and into every play, no one is worried about the lack of scoring, and of course it's an international game which really gives it that extra spice. I will definitely be watching the World Cup in South Africa two years from now.

I've brought back the blog and created a new website. Nothing special but something so I can say that I have one. Pnut has one, I could not be out done!

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Sat, 06 Mar 2004 19:56:00 +0000

I need a laptop. Blogging is addictive, but of course I never want to sit down and type up what I think while I'm on my desktop computer. So last night I went to a pimps and hoes party. Me and my friends went expecting booty music, but instead were greeted with a screaming band and loud drums, which is cool of course, but this was a theme party and we were pimped and hoed out. We needed booty music, so we go to the booty central club of Atlanta. MAMAZ. So we get there, and it was straight up South Ga club of the Year (sarcasm). It was alright cause I was nice and tilted, but I got to tell you, hearing ZZ top and Lynyrd Skynyrd to a techno beat is really satisfying to dance to. It wasn't the tightest night I've ever had, but it was better than staying home!

So in my last post I talked about a new lancenter and a Coslan coming up. Well, the lancenter bailed on me with the job. They're still opening, but since I wasn't going to go with a $100 paycheck a week AND drive across town, they decided I wasn't worth the trouble. Well, that's nice. I have no doubt in my mind that the guy will have his hands full if he doesn't get someone in there that knows what they're doing.

My last Coslan went so-so. Saturday was the counter-strike tournament. Had 10 teams show up, and I gave away $500 for 1st. The tournament went smooth, and other than the upset of abs0lut taking 2nd instead of soby, everything went as planned. Sunday however, no one showed. We have four tournaments planned, and no one showed up. We had been having problems advertising the weeks prior to the event, so I think that has alot to do with it. I did give away some prizes for the one or two people that did show on Sunday.

The season is changing, even if it might get cold again. I think spring took a real hold this week. Right now it's sunny and clear outside. The windows are open, I have sandals on and I'm wearing shorts. Really my favorite time of the year. All I need now is a convertible car, a lake to swim in, my own place to smoke my twerbals, and the cheese to throw a party every other weekend!

noreply@blogger.com (travis cosby) — Thu, 22 Jan 2004 09:16:00 +0000

Wow, so I have this knack for never updating my blog webpage. Tomorrow I'm going to check out this new lancenter in Marietta. Guy is hopefully going to hire me as a manger for the place. Right now we're looking at 18 brand new machines, along with one server machine, 19 19" Viewsonic A90F, 8 Panasonic 55" HDTVs. I'm not sure of the specs of the machines, but I'll post those when the place opens, which sounds like it may be here in a few weeks. No website is setup that I know of, but I'm sure we'll get that taken care of. If you're in the Atlanta area, you should check it out. I'll be posting a link hopefully soon.

Also, I've got another Coslan coming up. I'm hoping to have 130+ people coming this time around. We're playing five different games in five different tournaments. We've gotten cs, we've got quake3, ut2k3, warcraft3, hldm ffa, and Madden 2004 on playstation2. Looks like I'll be having two of those 55" inch panasonic HDTV's at my lan, that way we can have a nice big Madden scene, and also host some HLTV up on those bitatches. Might even be able to set it up so we can watch the quake3 match, and towards the end of the day have the warcraft3 match (This will probably be up on the projector).

So it's been two months since I posted last. I really neglect this journal. Not much has happened in my life, and I guess that's why I fail to post things. Still trying to get my car fixed before summer is over, along with getting a car and getting into a college. Looks like I'll definitly be going to Clayton State next summer. Hopefully take some core classes and just get my taste of school after highschool. I hope it's as enlightening as I've hoped. I just want a change really. I've spent too much time doing the same thing over and over.

I was in Barnes and Noble yesterday, and I picked up a book about Leonardo da Vinci. Think I might pick it up when I have a few bones.

Did I mention I'm in Florida? I'm visiting that special girl again. Seems like she's the only thing that gives me inspiration to do things these days. I'm going to post here more, I swear it. ;x

I LOVE YOU CHRISTINA! Thank you for the wonderful weekend :) It's the best I've had in a while.
