It is very strange not being able to call you.
Happy Birthday, Dad.
Love,

New Face
Yup.
New template design.
I’m still testing it out.
You might see more changes from time to time.
And that’s a big emphasis on “Might.”
Let me know what you think.
A New Thank You.
Yesterday,
after I helped a co-worker with her computer problem,
instead of saying “Thank you.”
She said,
“Blessings upon you, Ty.”
I didn’t know what to say.
Or do.
No one has said that to me before
as a form of thanks.
But you know what?
It made my day.
Earth Hour.
At 8:30 pm tonight,
Earth Hour will commence on my side of the world.
The campaign is about for all to turn off their lights
and consume less energy.
Just for an hour.
Now I am not going to play the “Holier-than-thou” game.
I am not going to pretend that I follow all the recycling
and energy conserving methods that my fellow scientists
and government officials have implemented.
But with my professional opinion,
I really think this Earth Hour has lots of potential.
And someday it could be more than an Hour.
Probably more like a day.
But I am not writing this as a professional.
I am here,
just as a regular guy,
asking you to give this Earth Hour a try.
Trust me. It’s not that bad.
I have lived in the Philippines.
We are used to not having electricity for hours.
That’s how I learned to play guitar.
Oh, and one more thing.
Please do not print everything you see on your computer screen.
Do you have to have a hard copy of all your emails?
Jeebus, man. Stop Printing every picture too!
Or every forwarded spam mail your friend sent you.
Stop it!
The trees are crying!
You are killing my planet!
They avoid me!
One of my favourite bands of all time,
Depeche Mode is touring!
I have seen them perform once in Manila a long time ago.
And it was quite a show, I tell you!
Now they are touring again!
Guess where?
Not where I live!!
Why are my favourite bands avoiding me?
Nobody ever comes to where I live.
When I left Manila, bands started coming there.
When I left Ottawa, bands started coming there.
Now?
Not anywhere close to me!
I know, I know!
I should live in a big city
like Los Angeles or Miami.
But I can’t.
I can’t afford to live in high places like those.
I can’t even afford to live where I am now!
I need a small town kind of living.
Maybe I’ll just move to Forks, Washington.
It’s probably cheap to live there.
Maybe I’ll meet Edward.
Uh, Bella!
I mean Bella.
Meet Bella.
Stupid book.
Now where are my FHM magazines?
Okay! Fine!
Okay. Fine!
I’ll read it.
Let’s see what the fuss is about.
Let’s just hope this book will not turn me into a 15 year old girl.
Talking about boys and sleepovers
and rainbows
and unicorns
and shoes
and clothes
and whatever girl stuff they talk about.
Just for the record,
I am reading this book not only because I am curious about
the hoopla surrounding the “Twilight” mania,
but also because that chick who played the leading girl is hot!
Very hot.
And the way she describes that vampire guy,
with his perfect smile,
with his perfect good looks
and his chiseled chest with his Adonis body.
*sighs*
He sounds so dreamy.
Focus on the girl, Ty!
Focus on the girl!
Look at this!
I am so mad!
I got the carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms!
I am not too upset about the fact that I am having trouble
opening the peanut butter jar,
or using a screwdriver,
or clicking on my mouse,
or flipping through channels on the TV remote,
or strumming my guitars.
What really made me upset is that,
THIS IS MY VIDEO GAME HAND!!!!!
This can’t be happening,
Now that I just downloaded Tap Tap Revenge 2!!!!!
NOoooooooooooo!!!!!!!
A blur
Am I the only one who just
sits down and think about everything around him,
and realize that
everything is just
a blur?
It’s like I am looking at the world around me and
I am not sure if the blur was because of my eyes,
or because of my dirty eyeglasses,
or maybe because of the world itself.
And I do not know which one to clean.
—
Did that make any sense at all?
Of course it didn’t.
Man, I need to lay off on the Xanax.
I negotiate
I negotiate in my prayers.
“Dear Baby Jesus,
Can I please, please, please, please, please
have this..
I promise to be good.
Thank you.
Amen.
PS – You can take the cat for collateral.”
Kittah!
We’ve had her for a while now,
But let me introduce to you.
Tyra , the kitty.
Tyler named her Tyra.
But everybody calls her Kitty.
I call her KITTAH!
I never had a cat before, and I must admit,
I like having her around.
Especially when she purrs like there’s no tomorrow.
Plus the fact that I don’t have to go out and walk her.
She practically takes care of herself.
Bathes herself.
Plays by herself.
Cats are a perfect, lazy-person’s pet.
And,
She usually shoves her face under my armpit when she sleeps.
Hey, what can I say.
The pussycat loves me.
(grin)
