So I am back. Last week was a bit crappy, but thats behind me now. Time to move forward.
How do you communicate with someone who wont listen to reason? To someone who dont know they are in the wrong, or even think they are ever in the wrong?
It's not easy. Best advice would be to try and remain calm, explain in a factual manner at the time of the communication.
Not before, not after. Reason being, since they dont think they are wrong, calling them out on it when it isn't happening wont help you. So do it while they are talking to you. Then, maybe you can get them to understand.
It's easy to not take the conflict, but it wont solve anything. You will be facing the same trouble again and again.
Yesterday was the first day of the last week at my current location. Hopefully it will be extended for more time, but the work I am doing seem to dry up. Maybe I can help out in other places. Doing similar but other things. Hopefully. I ask at the end of the week.
Buddy heading to Barcelona this coming weekend. I hope his visit goes well and it turns out to be one of many visits. I am happy for him
No news from the doc yet. Wonder if he have forgotten. I should contact him, or the insurence company and see what the freck is going on. Or rather, why the freck they dont contact me.

The 3rd in Ten
So here we are again.
Another day and another post. What to tell you. The weekend have been a bit of a rollercoaster ride.
Fresh approach today and hopefully the day will end fullfilled. There is something missing here. Or rather someone. I know where she is, and most of the time what she does, but she is doing it to far away from me.
There is a faint promise of a new world to explore by the end of the week, but I might not be chosen for the expedition. I hope I am, but chances like these dont really come to people like me.
Will know more by the end of the week.

Yesterdays War
Hello folks.
As you may have noticed, we didnt mess with time and space. Well, not much anyway. We were locked in a war of 1999, but we had to travel to 1994 to be able to fight the war of 1999.
Sounds confusing, huh? It's ok. It is. We didnt finish. We did our best, and at times that wasn't good enough. But still, the world had faith in us, and basically we 'are' the only defense the world have.
Today wont be war. Today will be the opposite. Today will more enjoyable.
There are some troubles to be sorted in other ways. I am off to see if I can sort something out.
Be back later.

The day of exploration
Today is the day when I meet up with a old friend. Not sure what we will be doing, but I am sure it will be enjoyable. It always is.
We most likely explore some far of location or time, do our best to change it (I know you are not suppose to change the past), but we are curious to see what will happen. As are you all.
Whatever the result, it wont affect you, or rather, you wouldn't know that it affected you, as you are outside the sphere of influence where me and my friend are tinkering with time and possibly space.
Not saying that is what we will be doing, but why leave out the option that we might?
What else is happening around here? Not much that I am aware off. Have some chores to do, but those are doable. Boring, but doable. Need to get some food as well.
Now that Vindictus is gone, I sort of miss him. But only a little. The focus of combat wasn't really my style.
Also on the big news. Down to single digit weeks now. Then the big event will happen. I am really looking forward to that. A month long event of awesome presence.

End of the week
So here we are. End of the week, but still early in the day. A bit of both. Still have a day ahead, but then you have four behind.
Got a surprising email. Claiming I had tested something I hadn't, and now wanted me to get to ordering.
I did my ordering a few months ago, and the testing... Haven't happened. Wish it did, but it didn't. The powers that be are looking into it. Had to grab a bird to find out. Not really what I wanted, but I guess I had no choice.
Sometimes you are forced to do things you dont want to. To do sertain things, you much first join other social networks. This progress is wrong. Forcing someone to join a community, just because they want to be part of another is wrong.
But people dont care. All they see is the money they will make. Money isn't everything. But it is what controls the world and those that control a product, wants as much as they can get.
Speaking of people and how they dont care... Did I mention I hate people? I dont mean specific people, but rather people in general. Sure, there are some people that can be grouped with others. Like some dog owners. They aren't always picking up after their beloved pets. Or keep their pets on a leach. So I hate them.
Another group of people are the greedy ones. The ones that see something is free and can't rush fast enough to get it. This is most evident in supermarkets. When they have a drive or something. Lots and lots of people. And they are blocking your shopping, because they got their free sample, but rather then get the move on, they stand there, by the sample table and shove the sample down their throat so fast that they risk choking (No such luck though), and they grab another 'sample'.
- Dude, sample is one. The second will taste the same. Move the freck along.
Then we have the blockers. Another group of people I hate. These are the ones that are standing in groups of 2 or more. They chat and they stand in the middle of the path. They see you coming, but dont move. They just stand there chatting away about nothing.
-Move out of the way. Show some freaking curtesy
These are some of the people I hate. And if you look around, you will find that you can't really be anywhere in the world without running into to atleast one of these groups. If you dont, maybe you are in one.
Later...

Hiatus over?
Some time have passed. I have not been able to make proper updates to this log.
Sorry about that.
The visit by Vindictus was short, but intense. Got into a few scrapes, but nothing serious. He departed somewhat hastily, and with some troubles. But I am sure he will come by again sometime
The island restoration project I was asked to do, have been postponed, or rather dropped. I had to decline the offer in the end to focus on other things. Closer to home.
What else is new? Well, family is getting stronger. Danger sorted and things are getting back to track. Weather is getting colder and the days grow darker. But there will be sunlight in the darkest of nights. And comfort... lots of comfort.
Looking forward to it like you wouldn't believe.
Until next time.

The Day of Saturn
Yesterday was tough. Lots of aches and pains. It was also an exhausting day.
Today is more relaxed. Had some plans to head to the J-mall, but aches prevent me from making the trip. I might step outside a bit later to check on the atmospheric changes in the area.
I was notified that there is a new challenge for me. An island some distance away are in need of leadership, seeing how the old ruler stole the money from the relief funds after the island latest volcanic erruption and fled the island.
Most of the buildings were destroyed and I have been tasked with rebuilding. Not only the infrastructure, but also bring the island into the new millenium. It is a daunting task, but with the aid of some geologists and soil experts I do believe I have a clear vision on how to turn things around.
Will tell you more when I get the chance.

2nd Try
Greetings friends.
Today is my second try to get work done. I started yesterday, but it was slow going. Mostly because my instructor was slow to teach, and spend more time chatting with co workers, then actually work.
As time moved one I got into the work more, and had to rely on others less. Just the way I like it.
I was also equipped with almost everything I need to handle the situations that might arise. A new uniform, a keycard, and some equipment. Still waiting on the rest of the uniform, but I have most of what I need.
It was a lot of pain and aches yesterday. Will maybe be some today as well. But hopefully not as bad.
Also had a mishap with the tranport home. Apparently the driver felt it was ok to not finish his route. I had to get another tranport to get me the rest of the way. Way to go driver. Getting mad at me for not knowing. Thats awesome work, coming from someone who have a bad rep to begin with.
Vindictus arrived yesterday as well. Still trying to sort out what it means. Wont have time now, but later... when I get home. Or tomorrow.

New Beginning
Here we are. Some would say I come full circle, but I prefer to think of it as a new beginning. What's in the past is in the past. The only thing useful about it, is what we learn and take away from it.
Last night was a restless sleep. Was it because of the new beginning? Or was it something else? Sleep haven't been that great latetly. Hopefully that will change now.
So what will the day bring? Revelations? Insight? Familiarity? Time will tell, and time... time is running out.

Arrival
Well, well...
Didnt know I would arrive here when I woke up this morning. Must say it isn't as I expected. The day itself didnt turn out as I thought. Let me tell you...
I woke up early as I usually do. Thinking that today would be another relaxing day, but that was not to be the case. No sooner have I had my 3rd cup of coffee before the phone rings and a friend calls about a job.
"I need you to come in tomorrow at 7, and work until next friday, if not longer", He said. I accepted the job as he knew I would and I told my fiancé about the news.
It might put a wrench in our plans a few months down the road, but we can get around that. The important thing is that I have a job.
I spent some time having a bit more coffee, checking up on Dexter and ate some breakfast. I figured I would head out to do some shopping today, but other issues took presidence so I had to shelf that idea. Instead I went to the visual technican and inquired about my lenses. I was told that there could be a factory error and more examination was needed before a replacement could be ordered.
I left his store and headed back home. A roadblock caused me to go on a detour. Making me walk the last leg of the trip. Not to worry. Weather was somewhat ok and I could use the exercise.
Got home, had some rest and supper. Got an update about the issue I mentioned earlier and then I got ready to chat with my fiancé again. Relative had some troubled and as I tried to help out, I ended up here.
And here I am. Not sure how long I stay, but I keep you updated
