Life of Ralph

This will give you a glimpse into my life, the rise and fall, the trial and tribulations and the ongoing challenges that I face on a daily basis. I write, I drink, I read, I watch movies, I travel (when i can afford it) and chicks just don't get me.

Off and on off and on and being alone

I am completely afraid to look at my previous posts to count the times I have said that I will start posting more often or that I will set a schedule for me to do it. Les just get out it out in the air, I AM A FLAKE! Well no completely, just when it comes to this. Ok so here's my actual blog on being alone.

I have no issue being alone. I was the youngest in my household and there was/is a HUGE age gap between me and my three older brothers, i was the baby of the family. So part of my childhood I felt like an only child because I was the only child living in the house, everyone else were adults. I would go off in my imaginary world and do things alone. Don't get me wrong I played with the kids in the neighborhood, but they weren't like me and didn't think like me (no, I'm not gay). The only way I could explain it was that I maybe had a conscious, or I could think outside of myself, maybe I had self realization at an early age. Also, because I was always around older people I matured more quickly.

Fast forward to now, I am sort of well rounded. I have "friends". Although there are very few I would call for help if I was stranded somewhere. In general I enjoy being alone with m thoughts. I'll occasionally go out with people but then I have to recharge my social juices and spend some time isolated from everyone else. Some people can't handle solitude and isolation, me on the other hand, I thrive in it!!!

It's been a while.....

NO NO NO, I'm not talking about the Staind song, (god forbid I do). It's been quite sometime since I've posted on here and I should post here sooner to clear my soul up. So here it goes.

Im still working graveyard at the homeless shelter in LA. I recently went to Vegas and Laughlin, which were quite relaxing trips. I haven't really been drinking too much. I am slowly regaining control of my financess, unfortunately dental work and is eating up alot of dough.

Still single, not dating anyone, and really just trying to focus on ME. It's weird I've been on one of those "self realization" movie kicks lately, Sorta like Stranger Than Fiction with Will Ferrel, one saying that sticks out is "You're never too old for space camp", that right there says it all!!!

I have a summer class (College Algebra for Business Calculus) coming up next work, I am not too excited about it especially since it's my worst subject. Wish me luck!!!
