It's taken me all this time to find out what I need

13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. 13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. |

Please, if you wouldn't mind, say a little prayer for my grandmother .. she's currently in the hospital in Ontario and is scheduled to undergo some more surgery .. they went in to remove a benign tumor and found more in her small intestines.. they still haven't used the dreaded c-word, so we remain optimistic.. but now, once she regains some strength, they're going back in to remove the others that they found ..
She's a beautiful woman with a real zest for life and so much love to give. An amazingly strong person who has been through so much hardship in her life and yet never given up hope.. always takes every opportunity she can to smile (the only time(s) I've seen her without one is when we were younger, and she'd wag her index finger at us.. "Youuuuu" .. lol) She'd give you the shirt off her back to help you out.
We're all praying she pulls through the next round of shit coming her way, and I just would like it if you would too.. thanks..
Edit: So, it's cancer. And it's in the pancreas, the large intestine, and the liver. They removed part of the one from the large intestine, and they're going to remove the other parts and then start chemo. I think they figure they may have caught it early enough to do something about it. I pray that's the case. Fuckfuckfuck. |

It's been a while...but life is excellent right now.
With exception to today. I think my affinity for computers has long passed.
I leave for Mexico and Grand Cayman on Saturday. I'm stoked. |

So the new boss/client (I'm not really sure which he is just yet) asked me if I wanted to go to Cancun in November. I said, um, fuck yeah. The cooler part was that he offered to get Rachel up from Peru to meet us there if I wanted. Apparently there's a conference going on there, and he scored a couple of extra tickets last year. His offer was contingent upon getting the extra tickets, but yeah.. that'd be fucking cool. He also offered to send me to Hawaii to speak at a conference for him. I told him I wasn't comfortable speaking about a subject of which I know nothing, and then he told me he'd write me cue cards and powerpoint slides etc .. I declined. Maybe another time.
Other than that, things are quiet on the home front. Spent the last couple of days in Orlando, and it's actually been pretty fun. JP and Ben have been around, so we've actually been hanging out. Maybe the friendships will be alright once we're out of each others' constant hairs. JP's got a new girlfriend, too, and I actually like this one. She's cool to hang out with.
Ok I guess I better head to bed. Have to be up in the morning to make some phone calls and, if the waves are decent, hit the beach. Rachel left one of her surf boards here, so I'm gonna take it out to Cocoa and see if I can't make an ass out of myself for a couple of hours. Should be interesting to say the least. |

Please pray for those in Louisianna, Mississippi and Alabama that have lost their lives, or those who have lost loved ones.
Man, do they ever need it. The death toll from MS is going to be staggering when it's officially released. |

Woo!
Down to 211. Lost 4lbs in a month. 200, here I come. That's my next milestone.
My strength is increasing at a decent pace. I'm averaging about a 10lb/week gain per muscle group (except for my legs, which are insane). I put up a set at 175 on bench today, and I'm pretty happy with that for now. Just need consistency now, I was pumped today. My triceps are gonna kill me later. :D
Other than that, got Karate tonight. I want to work on my katas. It's been so long, but I remember most of the first one. Everything from there, I'm going to have to re-learn. Was going to shoot up to St. Pete to hang out with Crystal tonight, but seems as though Mother Nature has a different agenda for me. It's alright, I can do without the drinking anyway.
Oh! Publix sells sushi (and sashimi) now. So I picked up some Tuna. Good stuff. |

I've done some house cleaning. Nuked all my old entries. Too much self-deprecating bullshit in there that I don't wish to be reminded of.
Movin on.. |

After dinner conversation at the Jeske household.. gotta love it ..
Grandma: "Being single's not all it's cracked up to be."
Me: "I dunno, there are plenty of great things about it..."
Dad: "Yeah, you can fart in the living room and not get shit for it."
Me: "Depends on how hard you fart." |

Christie Michele Prieto
October 14, 1981 - September 18, 2002
The world just doesn't seem as bright since it was deprived of your glowing spirit. Your untimely departure created a deep hole in the hearts of those who loved you; one that will be never completely disappear.
You are missed immensely, but I know you're up there watching over me (probably laughing your ass off at the stupid shit I put myself through :D), and sharing your spirit with those around you. This world just wasn't good enough for you.
Rest in peace, Christie. |
