jesse james...

i was raised knowin' right from wrong

baptized under that old rugged cross

i try to be a good man, i always give it my best

but, truth be told, some days i want to go to the wild, wild west

i know where to draw the line

but there's just somethin' 'bout that other side

i've got angels on my left, demons on my right

it's a never ending battle, it's a constant fight

sometimes, i want to be like Jesus

sometimes, i want to be jesse james

learning something new...

ok, so you learn something new every day. for example, if you take the left retail value of the apostrophe all the way to the maximum, then eventually, the lampshade effect will lead to the tassel's vessel, which has the potential to blanket all forms of life as we know it. crazy...

nothing...

this space has been left intentionally blank. don't worry, there is no subliminal message for you here.

after nyc...

i am back in california now. i had an awesome time in nyc and am definitely going to visit again. i tried to post while i was there, however i did not have internet at the apartment i had and blogspot would not allow me to post from my iphone. i took over 200 pics while visiting and it would take a while to upload them all on here. i have already uploaded them onto bookface and am going to make the folder public. however, it will only allow you to view a certain number of images before it makes you log in. for those of you who have an account, that will not be a problem. for those without an account, i apologize. hope everyone is doing well! talk latter!

p.s. this is what part of the alphabet would look like if "q" and "r" were missing.

p.p.s. c2 says you are all gay.

whatever...

well, i haven't updated in a while as i have been fairly busy. also, i sort of forgot about my blog. sort of... actually, i am mostly on bookface. i am on there a lot more often than i am here. if you wish, add me as a friend. i am on there as will kimbley. i changed it to my real name. i was on there for the longest time under my online name. lol anyway, i update that almost every day.

work has been a little slower for me lately, as i have not been putting in quite as many hours. so, with the extra time, i went to san fransisco a couple times. in the last 2 months, i think i went about 4 times. just to get out of fresno. well, once was to take my best friend to the airport. he moved to new york city and flew out of san fransisco, so i dropped him off. it was a time of hugs, kisses, tears, crying, wailing, tissues, and all that other chingas. lol okay, actually, it wasn't even like that at all. lol anyway, he really enjoys the change and is glad he made the decision to move. so... i figured since my trip to england fell through, i would join him. i am leaving september 1 to go check it out. so, we will see what happens while i am out there and we'll also see when i feel like coming back. lol well, actually, i am being serious. i'll be there for at least the month. after that, we'll see what happens. we'll see if new york can handle 2 guys from california at once. lol

what else? off the top of my head, i can't think of anything new. so, i'll talk latter. whether from new york city or from the big metropolis of fresno. have fun! but, stay out of trouble. i'm going to go try to find some right now. talk latter!

The snake and chicken....

don't let the snake eat the chicken

my life...

my life, your entertainment.

help wanted...

research assistant needed. the risk of a fatal catapult accident is slightly less than 100%.

words with friends...

if anyone is interested in playing a 'words with friends' game with me, then just start a game. chadwicksux is my username. i have three games open and should have another two open soon. i usually score about 350-400 points a game. if anyone is interested, then let's go!

lying...

why do people think they have to lie about certain things? especially about things that can be found out very easily. i understand the whole 10 commandment issue of "thou shalt not lie." however, that is not what i am talking about here. people lie. if someone is going to find out the truth (whether from you or from someone else), and it is obvious they are going to, then why not just tell them the truth in the first place? don't let them find out from someone else. especially if it concerns that individual. i am just baffled by the outright lies i hear people say straight to someone's face. when this happens to me, i am more irritated with the fact that they lied to me then by whatever it was they lied about. it's not cool how you are lying, and i know the truth. seriously, just tell me the truth. i have put up with more than enough of my fair share of lies. (and, yes, i am talking to you. if you do have to ask, then it is probably not you.) if you ask me, i'll be straight-up with you. i have nothing to prove and nobody to impress. if you don't want the truth, then don't ask me. but, at least have the courtesy to tell me the truth as well. like i said, i put up with enough lies, i am not going to do it again.

on a side note, i understand a good joke. i am as fond of joking as much as the next guy. however, there is a big difference in joking and straight-up lying. don't confuse the two.

smooth...

smooth as a hickory wind that blows from memphis down to apalachicola...

spending...

so, why exactly did i spend WAY too much money at the mall? i'm blaming the beautiful girl who gave me too much attention. she knew she was hot and was using it against me! lol she just kept picking out stuff that looked really good and, for some strange reason, the price just didn't seem to matter at the time. oh well... at least i have some nice, new clothes! lol

traveling...

ok, so i have a couple of trips planned. i figure i have been working every day for too long, so i am going to enjoy myself a little.

a trip to hawaii will be first. i am looking at spending about a week there. it's hawaii. you have to go at least once, right? then, i'll be spending the month of september in england. i'll finally be able to make the trip! i'm excited about that. still working on the exact dates, but it's finally becoming real. then, depending on that trip, i might be going back next year in april or may. also looking at a trip to italy next year. so, we will see how that works out. also, next summer, possibly a mexican riviera cruise.

so, quite a bit planned out, and it should be a lot of fun. if anyone is interested in going with me, then hit me up! talk latter!

jaron and the long road to love - pray for you...

i know i posted the song before, but this song is just awesome! so i wanted to put the lyrics up.

jaron and the long road to love - pray for you

I havent been to church since I don’t remember when
Things were goin’ great ‘til they fell apart again
So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do
He said you can’t go hatin’ others who have done wrong to you
Sometimes we get angry, but we must not condemn
Let the good Lord do His job and you just pray for them

I pray your brakes go out runnin’ down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I’d like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you’re flyin’ high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know whereever you are honey, I pray for you

I’m really glad I found my way to church
‘Cause I’m already feelin’ better and I thank God for the words
Yeah I’m goin’to take the high road
And do what the preacher told me to do
You keep messin’ up and I’ll keep prayin’ for you

I pray your tire blows out at 110
I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend

And wake up with his and her tattoos

I pray your brakes go out runnin’ down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the head like I’d like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you’re flyin’ high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your car,
Wherever you are, honey, I pray for you.

a donut and a receipt...

ok, i think the title pretty much sums it all up. i will go into a little more detail, though, just to explain.

i bought a donut... ONE donut for 85 cents. and the dude gives me a receipt. are you serious? lol what in the world am i going to use a receipt for a donut for? is someone going to stop me on the way out of the store to confirm my purchase? you know, like costco does. lol am i going to be called upon to prove i bought this donut? or am i supposed to file the receipt with my taxes? "...and there's another 85 cents... oh yeah! take that, uncle sam!" i mean, seriously, it's 85 CENTS! not even a dollar. why is there any reason to bring ink and paper into this transaction? i'll just give you the money and you just give me the donut. makes sense, right? ok, i just thought that was funny.

anyways, things are going well for me. i have been working quite a bit, lately. actually, pretty much every day. i like the paycheck, but working every day gets pretty old pretty fast. i still enjoy my job, don't get me wrong. just working every day kinda sucks. just a couple more weeks, though.

all right, i'm tired. hope everything is going well for everyone. i will try to provide a better update soon. have fun! talk latter!

moving...

i am seriously considering moving... i think england would be a cool place to live. plus, they have really cool accents. i'm going to check into that.

my lights...

i installed these blue lights in both the driver and passenger side footwells. just in the front for now. it will be easy enough to just run the wires to the back seat when i decide exactly where i want to put the rest of the lights.

an update of my life...

it has been a while since i have given an update on what is going on in my life, and i have had a couple request an update, i figured i would let you all know what is new with me. in short, my life is awesome! however, i think you were wanting a little more than that.

for starters, i am now working three jobs. i have the two jobs in x-ray and just recently started working in mri. i really enjoy that. it's pretty chill, but there are so many things to remember and keep track of. at any given point during the exam, there is a minimum of six things going on at once. when i was first learning mri, the amount of information i had to keep track of was almost overwhelming. with repetition, it has become easier. i really enjoy working in mri. the paycheck is nicer than the one from x-ray too. lol that may also have a little bit to do with it. but, i really do enjoy my job. both in mri and in x-ray. i am glad i chose this as my career. and i'm glad i got it all done so quickly! i am done with college and have my whole life ahead of me.

so, with school out of the way, and now that i am working and making money, i have the means to do all the things i have wanted to do. such as, traveling to other places. i want to take a trip pretty soon and have narrowed it down to three places. i want to go to hawaii, england, and australia. i just can't decide which place i am going first. decisions, decisions... also, one of my friends is wanting to go to rome... so, i guess i should throw that in as well. rome would be cool, though.

i never really thought about playing golf before. i went about a week ago and it was actually very enjoying. actually, i should clarify. i went to the driving range. there was just something about hitting that golf ball and watching it soar into the distance and almost hitting the guy driving around in his cart picking up the balls. lol we were actually aiming for him. he was in his cage though, so he was fine. don't get all crazy on me. lol but seriously, it was alot of fun. i thought it would be like the batting cages, so i wasn't very excited about going. to clarify, i hate baseball. i thought it was going to be like that, but i really enjoyed it. i am going to have to go again.

i have told you before about my car. i have a 2006 acura tl. i love my car! lol lately, i have been doing some work on it. just a couple of things to put a little more of "me" into the car. i do have some pics i can post of the lights i installed. i will do that in a little. i have had the car almost six months now, and i still have no regrets. i'm glad i made the decision to get it.

i have two friends who are equally as awesome as me. lol with them, we are the three best friends the anybody could have. and if you know where that quote came from, you are pretty awesome as well. lol

i can't forget to give a shout out to my favorite girl in the world. i have only known you a couple of months now, but you are awesome! and when we go to england, you're going to have to show me around. flying first class, of course! lol

well, between work, chilling with all my friends, and enjoying my car and this beautiful weather we have been having lately, i am very satisfied with my life. i have to admit, it is pretty legit. so, i am out for now. talk latter! have fun!

one more thing: you created a monster.

now...

four words to choke upon: look at me now!

mistakes...

there are certain things in life, where you know it's a mistake, but you don't really know it's a mistake because the only way to really know it's a mistake is to make the mistake and then look back later and say, "yup, that was a mistake."

new post...

i was going to post something new, but i don't really have anything to say. so, i guess i won't post anything then.

more school...?

ok, i thought i was finished with all of my schooling. however, i am seriously considering going back. there is a physician's assistant program that takes 2 years. i would not be able to apply for this year, as the application deadline has already passed, so i would have to wait until next year. for the increase in pay, i think it would be worth another 2 years of school. this is not a for sure thing, just something i am considering. but, i figure, why not? i'm young and single... i can do these things. i would be 26 when i graduate and make some serious cash... something to consider...

my new favorite song...

ok, i just recently heard this song and i think it is awesome. so, i send this song out to all those i pray for. not to anyone in particular. and, trust me, this song is not what you think. so funny!
Jaron and the Long Road to Love sings Pray For You
here is a link to the song on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atBg9zLI2bA

whatever...

doing things differently leads to something exceptional in an absolut world. im that guy that did that one thing that one time, so stop being a punk and let me slam the door on your hand. also, i figured i would let you know just how difficult it is to say: "irish wristwatch."

have fun!

2009...

good bye, 2009. now that you are gone, it's easy to see the entire lie. i'm not even going to try to deny that i feel so much better now. well... now that you're gone forever. in this world around me, you've left nothing here and, frankly, i'm kinda glad you disappeared... and without even a good bye. although, maybe if i were awake at the time... oops. lol if you can't tell, i was not too thrilled with this last year. all in all, that is. oh well. so here is to a new year! may each day be better than the last. happy new year!
