The woman i love. On January 30, 2008 by Travelling Awesomes. I don’t want to go to sleep tonight. It’s been too long since I’ve traveled, and it’s hard to fall asleep alone again. I’m feeling a little gypsy, too. It was almost three hours driving to the hotel, and I love driving like that. We used to drive together like that. From the coast to anywhere. From the west coast to. From the gulf coast to. From the east coast home. I love to drive, but it’s always better with her. I hate the way people think ...

Archive for March, 2010. On March 10, 2010 by Travelling Awesomes. Dao vs da/sa. that’s why i hate it. it has conditioned me. my muscle memory is now instinctual, and it causes double-tap when i don’t want it to. Because it never changes, i’ve learned to take up the slack on my follow up shot. about half a trigger pull for me. that sets me up just right for a very clean follow up shot… with my glock. NOW is where my favorite gun (that i’m not even shooting) causes problems. But when i’ve come off t...

Archive for July, 2008. On July 9, 2008 by Travelling Awesomes. If a racist dies alone in a forest, does anyone care? I wanted to open with a joke, but, that seemed cooler. So, now onto the joke. What do you call a black guy flying a plane? Let’s move into it. I have three children. What they learn about the world, and more specifically, about right and wrong, they’re going to learn from me. I’m not going to teach them what I learned as a child. In third grade, I had a teacher named Mrs. Ramirez. I grew ...

Archive for September, 2009. What i learned at appleseed. On September 9, 2009 by Travelling Awesomes. I learned that a beard and a six position collapsible stock are only compatible when firing from the hip. aimed shots… not so much. I learned that if you’re going to sight your rifle, you should either do it on a range by yourself, or bring binoculars and a buddy to spot for you. or at least binoculars. I learned that if your rifle isn’t sighted in, expect to spend some time doing it. a lot of it. I lea...

Archive for April, 2008. A day in the life…. On April 15, 2008 by Travelling Awesomes. Bills the honey-do. car maintenance. taxes. work. raising kids. planning for the future. (and then working towards that plan) something just broke, and now we have to figure out how to fix it. don’t forget to run the vacuum cleaner. and how the hell do you spell vacuum? Whatever. i’ve never been able to pin that word down. He said it’s always been this hard. Today’s sunday, and it’s my only day off this wee...The movie...

Archive for February, 2008. It’s what i do. On February 28, 2008 by Travelling Awesomes. I work for an environmental company. Yes, I’m one of. It’s not as bad as it sounds though. In fact, either I’m getting green in my old age, or the things that this company is doing, really make sense. I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it first hand I don’t think. We have two types of clients. Either the Department of Energy (ours or someone else’s like Canada for example), or a polluter. Job in a minute.

Archive for April, 2014. Just something else i haven’t been able to finish…. On April 26, 2014 by Travelling Awesomes. I love precision, like a freshly oiled gun. I love chaos, like a garden that needs to be rescued. I love the excitement in a child just tall enough to ride. I love relaxing with the grandparents on the porch. I love speed, like fourth to second, and powering thru a corner. I love deliberate, like holding my breath on the exhale. I love soft, like a tiny hand wrapped around my finger.

Archive for September, 2008. To the lady in the produce aisle:. On September 13, 2008 by Travelling Awesomes. Let me start by saying that i will NOT apologize for what i did to you. however, i will apologize for scaring you the way that i did. my intention was not to be threatening, or to conjure up some past episode of spousal abuse that you may have experienced. my intention was to correct you on your public misbehavior, and to protect my child. And besides, the kid’s sized shopping cart that my ...
