I was sitting here at 1:13 AM thinking, and decided to start journaling again. I took some writing classes in college and really enjoyed them and found theraputic value in them.
This blog is about me, my life and my thoughts at any given time. I will try to keep it real, but I aint (yeah I said aint) keeping it that real. A human being has to keep something personal.
So here are my thoughts for this evening. I was thinking about a childhood friend tonight, Jimmy. We both moved away from home in the mid 70's. He enlisted in the Navy, and I enlisted in the Airforce about 6 months later. I got in touch with Jim a while back after not seeing him for close to 25 years. I also spoke to Jim a couple of months ago shortly after my 50th birthday. He and I are the same age, but I am a little older.
What brings this relationship to mind this evening is a new consulting gig I started yesterday. The company I am contracting with licenses and collects royalties for digital images submitted by the professional photographers.
The last time I talked to Jim, he told me his mother has retired from years of working as a nurse, and she is doing volunteer work in Africa.
So I'm thinking now that's cool. I wonder if she can send me some pictures?
