Esta Es Mi Vida

Given my perpetual absence, and subsequent increase in visibility with my last post (and mostly due to twitter) I thought it was time to re-introduce myself to everyone, or at least to those that haven’t seen my “About Me” page.  I borrowed this from a few other bloggers who’d done the same and i’ve kind of enjoyed it.

I…

I am…a Christian, brother, son & apparently an Engineer (courtesy of my place of employment).

I have…entirely too much stress for my age, a deep love for the DC Metro area, sincere friends, a comfortable home, a mild obsession for technology.

I know…I am loved, I am stronger than I realize, I will succeed (at my new ventures).

I think…realistically–most ALL of the time.

I don’t think…I’d be the person I am today without the people who have been there for me along the way.

I want…to become career dependent on no one but myself.

I have…yet to visit a country outside of my own.

I like…being able to crush most everyone in Wii Tennis

I dislike…BlackBerry’s.

I hate…being looked as black first, and not just a human being.

I dream…about not having to work for anyone but myself, putting in hours building my own company/organization.

I fear…God, and perhaps the IRS.

I am annoyed…when I someone asks me for my opinion on a topic in which i have expertise on, chooses another option, then comes back and complains. Get out of my face already.

I crave…an Intel® Core™ i7 975 Processor (Extreme Edition) with 4x 3.33GHz/8MB L3 Cache.

I usually…succeed when I decide I’m going to something.

I search…for peace, security, and serenity.

I hide…my capabilities far too often.

I wonder…how life would have been if i’d made different choices prior to my 21st birthday

I just can’t help…but argue my point sometimes, literally into the ground I will argue.

I regret…not listening to the wise council of those that bestowed it upon me in my earlier youth.

I love…to cook, Christmas music, the feeling I have when i’m traveling someplace new.

I can’t live without…Grace and favor from my Lord, a comfortable pair of jeans, support of my family .

I try to…be patient with everyone because I know that it took a LOT for my family to have been patient with me.

I enjoy…cold winter nights during the holiday season, cuddled up on the couch with a blanket watching Christmas shows with someone special.

I don’t care…for black people that act like Uncle Tom’s.

I always…try to think of others when I make and execute a decision.

I never want to…end up on the news, for any reason, period.

I rely on…loved ones and people in my inner circle .

I believe…that this Christmas might be one of the best I’ve had since my childhood.

I dance…apparently like a muppet.

I sing…whenever my jam(s) is on. where i am at the time is immaterial.

I argue…very effectively.

I write…close to a thousand text messages per month (thanks Sprint for keeping track).

I win…at avoiding trouble with LEO’s in MD for some 25+yrs, come to VA and get harassed on a quarterly basis.

I lose…when I doubt myself and lose faith in my beliefs and what I know to be true.

I wish…that the new establishment actually cared about what’s left of the people in my office from my former company.

I listen…to the sound of my engine when I’m on my gas and it hits 2300rpm, right when that air intake valve opens up and she starts snarling while sucking in gobs of air.

I don’t understand…why people crave power and authority so much that they would tear each other down to the very fabric on their being in order to obtain it (Note: See any political election over the past 40yrs).

I’m scared of…disappointing my parents.

I forget…sometimes to stop and enjoy the moment, enjoy this time in my life.

I am happy…because I have been given much in my life and every year i’m able to sow back into the lives of those that gave so much to me and into the lives of people God places in my life, even if it’s just for a short season.

*exhale*
