velouria Holter Monitor - Subscribe
I got a Holter Monitor put on yesterday. I have to wear it for 24 hours. I can take it off today at 2:13 PM happy.gif

I hope it caught my heart doing crazy stuff! I do NOT want to have to wear this monitor again. It was only for 24 hours, but it was a real pain. I couldn't sleep well because I was worrying about it all night lol

velouria Willows Mourn Mar 13th, 2008 1:21:18 am - Subscribe
We met upon a mossy lane
‘Neath many a shady tree.
We walked about and spoke of life
As it were meant to be.

My love and I, our lives were one
He took my heart that day.
I ne’r again need walk alone
We’d be wed right away.

My love, then spoke those sad’ning words
I so yearned not to hear
He said to war he must then go
But that I should not fear

My love so long did fight so true;
My heart in constant pain.
Then one grey day I sensed the shock;
Knew it’d not be the same.

The shot that brought him down that day;
Surely, it pierced my heart.
Right then I knew I mustn’t live
Lest we be kept apart.

But on that night, he came to me,
Said there, I should remain.
Alas I felt that this was wrong;
My love I’d not refrain.

So out I went into the night
In search of his dear soul
And now my spirit roams these woods
The Willows sing my song.

Green willows mourn this day
And whisper this sad tune
A song of love and loss it be
Until our great reun’n

velouria Gimme Back My License Plate! Feb 25th, 2008 5:45:05 pm - Subscribe
I can't believe my luck! haha
I just noticed that my license plate is gone!
I do not remember it being gone last night, but it was possibly stolen from my driveway. Or, it may have been stolen from the parking garage at my office building...or across campus in another staff lot.

I called the police and told them I was not sure where it was stolen and was informed that I could only make a report in the city in which it was stolen! haha So I was like "yeah...it was stolen in *this* city"

I'm still waiting now for the police to call me back to take my report over the phone. It's been about two hours now...I hope they call soon lol.

I don't want to get home tonight and hear of "the get-away car had the license tag XXX### and seems to be registered to My Name" lol

velouria Bomb Scare! Feb 22nd, 2008 4:00:36 pm - Subscribe
I was diligently working at my desk when I heard a voice from the hall saying we had to evacuate the building immediately.

We all scattered out, yelling out a warning into the bathrooms as we passed. Outside, we heard there was a suspicious package near the front door. It was described as a long, tall brown bag partially open. Someone else had said it was a "package."

Most emergency services were in attendance for this grand event: Firemen, Policemen, and Bomb Squad! We stood at the far corner of the back parking lot....waiting...waiting then BOOM!

Geese, ducks, and heron were startled into flight in all directions. The bomb squad had exploded the package.

The inquisitive went to the front of the building and discovered the tattered remains of...what??? what is that??? It looks like napkins? Yes! Smoothie King napkins!

Turns out that the Smoothie King man had dropped the package of napkins as he was leaving after bringing refreshments to our nursing department.

What an exciting afternoon that was.

velouria On Being Invisible Oct 29th, 2007 4:43:45 pm - Subscribe
There is but One who sees an invisible one.

Scream, but there is silence.
Speak, but there is noise.
Please listen to the invisible one.

There are many "invisible ones" in our world today. Perhaps you work with one or sit next to one in class. There's the quiet guy you never notice on the bus, the lady who silently walks around to complete her shopping. The person who tries to communicate in groups but is ignored or cannot be heard from the lack of others' listening.
These people hurt. They want to be heard and ignored no more.
Can't we all stop our selfishness enough to listen to the invisible? to show compassion? Why don't we care?

What What?

Oh yeah, it's me. Mr. Ross "MC"

It's true, I'm adding an entry to my Aeonity Blog. I used to post on this every day! Sometimes more. Sadly, it was mostly because I was looking for someone, anyone to hear my young troubles and perceived teenage strife.

It's weird to change a blog over from the diary entries of a teenager to something that is more modern to my current situation.

I think I am going to start using a blog to talk about photography and travel. But...I am going to see about creating a new account for that because I would prefer to seperate the old life from the new.

So for what is most likely the last of my intimate posts on Aeonity I am going to add a few things. In case anyone remembers me.

About a month ago my fiance broke up with me because the relationship was not working. FIghting, arguing, crying, anger and a couple days a week that were magicvaly wonderful. I wan't on my bipolar medication and she has her own problems as well, so it was a bad situation.

Well, after that I went to South Dakota, for a field geology trip for 10 DAYS! It was super fantastic and I loved every day of it. We studied the Black Hills, Devils Tower, Bear Butte, Jewel Cave and the Badlands.

I made many new friends and even started to date this amazing young lady I met on the trip.

Shes very good for me as far as personality and pursuits. As well as where she is in her life with growing up.

I'm taking care of myself. Taking my meds, taking my happiness into my own hands and setting goals and plans for my future.

All in all it working out so far.

That is my month in a nutshell, and I wish everyone happiness. I am going to come up with an account for the super awesome blog to present Mr. Ross' amazing photography and adventures! Yey, awesome, woohooo!

Three Ships Sinking
One Yellow
One Blue
One Black

Waking up on a rainy morning
Before the sun has risen
Standing on the dock
Looking out into the water

I couldn't believe they
all had sunk
Three ships in succession
This was a dream

velouria The Dream, The Plead Apr 8th, 2007 5:53:48 am - Subscribe
I dreamt of you last night
I didn't want it
I wanted that least

As always, you were so real
but I know you are only a phantom
You always come
And I am tormented once again

I only want to know
Let me rest
The truth does not matter
As long as I know

Please visit me no more
I can endure it no longer

I cry as I write this
but I know I must write it
Maybe now you will leave me alone

And I know it's not your fault
That others said things
That you believed things
Things that were not true
And now there is no hope

Has been no hope for years
There was only one chance
But that was so long ago
And now it is gone

Now I will sleep
And I pray you do not visit
I must forget you

And then I will die
Die alone
Unable to care for myself
Without help
With only pity
And disdain

deathcab4u MPG Feb 28th, 2007 9:12:09 pm - Subscribe
I had a pleasant surprise today as I drove home from Brittany's today.

I filled the gas tank on my 99 Toyota Corolla with the mid-grade gasoline.

304 miles later in Madison, WI I filled my tank again and much to my surprise, my miles per gallon were remarkable.

The car is advertised to get 36 on the highway, but when I calculated it came up as 39 miles per gallon!

Even with an error margin of say...2 miles per gallon that's still an incredible 37 miles to the gallon.

Why is this so crazy to me?!

In my 90 Grand Caravan SE I would usually get as low as 16 MPG on the highway and rarely over 18 city driving.

It costs me around $60 to make my 800+ miles round trip.

What a deal!

Alrighty...that was sure to be a very cheesy entry.

Good night Aeonity Bloggers. After such a drive this young man is off to bed.

deathcab4u Not Married Yet Feb 21st, 2007 9:38:43 pm - Subscribe
No Frost, I'm not married yet...

But...

I am engaged!

We are waiting until she graduates with her Bachelor in Sociology two years from now.


Until then, my plan is to live here in the good ol' Chicago Suburbs until December orJanuary. At that point I am going to move to Ashland, WI where I will be with Brittany for the remainder of her academic career.

Right now I am more than happy being engaged. It is the commitment that I desire and need. We know we want to get married and the boyfriend/girlfriend level didn't feel like enough.

I guess that's when people get engaged. That's how it is for Brittany and me, and that's all that matters isn't it? happy.gif

On a Thursday...

I wake up between 8 and 9am


I am taking an online class this semester and haven't bought one of the books I need to do the coursework, I was going to today and I forgot...ouch!

Tomorrow after I drive my grandmother to her friend's place tomorrow I am going to go visit my brother who just had a second baby girl. She is 1 week old. I also get to see my neice who is going to be 2.5 very soon.

My brother said she was asking for me the other day. It is a suprisingly nice feeling to hear that you 2 year old neice misses you.

I miss her too.

I leave you with a picture of the one and only, the lovely charasmatic, always fun to be around...Ross

deathcab4u Happy Birthday to Me! Feb 14th, 2007 9:21:10 pm - Subscribe
Well David...I have been very busy!

First of all, thank you for remembering me happy.gif

I am still working at Starbucks. On friday I have my 6 month review and I will get the standard raise from $7.80 to $8.58 an hour. That is my base pay, then I get $1.50 to $2.00 per hour in cash every week as well. Not to mention all the benefits of being a full time employee.

I plan on getting a sweet promotion in may when I am done being a full time student. THen I will be making over $10 an hour and tips.

That's not to bad for a student. My main objective is to get management experience as a shift superviser. That will help me get another middle management position when I move up to Ashland, WI.

It's better than minimum wage...

Today I picked up a shift from 4:30am until 9:45, but I stayed until 11:15 because a girl didn't show up. I'm such a trooper on my birthday!

Anyways, I went to Brittany(my fiance)'s house and talked to her dad for almost 2 hours and picked up some stuff that they got for my birthday. Very kind of them. I think I will send a thank you card.

I am going up to visit Brittany at school the 23rd...woooeee.



I am almost done with my associates degree. I got another lame teacher for COllege Algebra, I really need to pass this time.


Aaaanyways. Thats seems like quite a bit for now. I am going to think about something to do for writing on Aeonity again. Maybe I can motivate my self and start doing a picture of the week. Get back into my photography a little bit.

I am not so much a kid anymore, 20 years old. I have grown up a lot since I started journaling on here. I used to be a little "emoliscious"....I am sad to say.

Now I am engaged, I pay all sorts of bills, I am planning on moving out withi9n the next year, life is progressing for me.

Until next time my friends (which I promise to be sooner than later)...Happy Valentines day and make the most of every day.

-Ross

I see life as a monster,
and I its evening meal
...something...i can't remember the rest
I'll have to come back and finish it ^^

Here it is:

I see life as a monster
And I, its evening meal
Which once ingested
Upsets
So that I am expelled
From its belly upon the shore
Where I am once again to be devoured

velouria What Star Wars Character Are You? Nov 7th, 2006 6:30:01 pm - Subscribe
Even though "We're doomed" is your signature declaration, it's more of a comforting affirmation than a pessimistic prediction. Your Star Wars type is See-Threepio, the chatty protocol droid, and it's your gift for gab that comes in handy when you get yourself into a jam.

While you may be somewhat of a worrywart, it's only because your sharp mind and infallible logic fails to take into account the fact that you are also one lucky duck. You are also a friend, never forgetting a birthday or special occasion. Your work ethic is second to none, although your friends usually have to pry you away from whatever your latest project is just so you can have a little fun. Once they do, you can be the life of the party.

deathcab4u Hello World! Nov 2nd, 2006 8:37:14 pm - Subscribe
Ever read a programing book. Any type of language, html to php tp vbasic, they teach you to get "Hello World!" displayed on the screen.


I just got home from visiting Brittany for a week. After I got home and talked to Brittany I promptly threw up in the toilet. It felt better afterwards, but I still feel sick today.

At first I thought it was the Sobe energy drinks and Excedrine Migraine, but now I think there's more to it than that.

Like, I'm actually sick...

ugh!

So three weeks until I see Brittany again.

I'm doing well in my classes. Not extraordinary, but well. All I want anymore is to be with Brittany. To get our apartment together in Ashland, to get a decent job, some health insurance.

Spend all our time together. I can work, she will go to school and do her schoolwork.

We can decorate our home, make dinner together, sleep together every night! We used to try to cuddle all night, but we never got any sleep.

It's funny how now we both end up sleeping with our back to one another, but always sure to be touching whether it's a foot or our backs.

And then when we are waking up we cuddle again. Hold each other close. Kisses.

Start the day with coffee, look out the window. I miss it so much already.

It seems kind of oldish doesn't it? Drinking coffee and looking out the window every morning? I love it.

deathcab4u The Update Oct 11th, 2006 11:24:08 am - Subscribe
So here's the update!

Well, I can't really say everything because it's been awhile, and I have a lot going on right now. Pretty stressed, but hanging in there.

So what is, all that is good, in my life.

Brittany?!

Yes!

I visited at the end of september for our 6 month anniversary! We had an amazing weekend. We relaxed, had fun, and went out for our big 6 monther.

We had an amazing dinner at this brewery or whatever type place in town. It was expensive, but not very too expensive. $50 for the both of us, not bad.

But that's what makes a special day feel special, is when you throw out all those cares and just enjoy everything.

We walked to the restaurant, so we got to enjoy that too.

It was a beautiful weekend, I miss her already.

But...not to worry. I visit her on the 26th! Only two more weeks now.

SO I have been working at Starbucks, Zumiez, and been going to school full time.

Buuuuusy busy busy.

A lot of bills because cell phone companies can tend to make a lot of money of of us hopeless customers.

Mmmm, I'm gonna jet, but I'll promise to do this more often.

Hasta Luego mis amigos
