Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.I had a really frustrating day today.The first phase of the day started when I tried to log on to my e-mail over on Yahoo but I kept getting a "That Page Can Not Be Displayed" message whenever I tried to access it.I tried numerous times throughout the day and still,the same thing.I also learned that I was not the only Yahoo customer experiencing the same problems.There were other customers venting their frustrations over this problem over on Yahoo questions.It seemed that a worm got into the Yahoo database and Yahoo only shut down e-mail access because they did not want the worm to spread into their customers e-mails.Apparently,a new worm was created somehow and using old weapons to spread it such as the phrase "New Graphic Site" were making their way into other users e-mail boxes.So,to be on the safe side,Yahoo temporarily closed off all access to e-mail until the worm could be immobilized and destroyed before it could be spread to computers all over the world.Again,it was frustrating.But Yahoo cares for their customers and they do not want anything to happen to their customers e-mail boxes nor their personal computer databases.I laud Yahoo for their continuing efforts to keep their customers safe from any harmful things that could ruin everybody's computer databases all over the world.I did manage to log on to my other e-mail boxes and there were no problems.
Last night,I did not get the chance to do any singing because the place I sing at were having dart tournaments all night until closing.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres lost thier third consecutive home game last night to the new Jersey Devils by a score of 3-2.
Aside from the frustrations,a little good thing happened today.I managed to find a 5 dollar bill on the ground and when I got to my computer,I registered the bill at Where's George and I spent it today on a couple slices of pizza.I also managed to buy a couple of movies today and that was great.I bought the DVD's National Lampoon's Vacation double film set,which consists of the first Vacation film and the sequel European Vacation,and Beavis And Butthead Do America.I also had to buy something for my mom,which she needed.
Tonight,I am going out again to sing.I hope that the night goes well.The next Buffalo Sabres game is Tuesday night when they travel to Pittsburgh to play the Penguins.I am hoping that the Sabres can start a new winning streak Tuesday night.
Not only that,last night,on the way home,my check engine light came on.Before I do anything,I am hoping that my mechanic can fit me inb so he can correct the problem.
That was my day and my hoped for night tonight.I am hoping that the new week will be better.FJ

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The day for me was not too bad.The rainy weather we were supposed to have was reduced to being a light rain shower.It was enough to make it warmer but the sidewalks were still a little slippery.Still,the weather was warmer and that was good.
Today,I helped my mother with her shopping.It was okay.Though I was hoping to so something for myself,I helped my mother out and the day and the experience was okay.After we got home,I took it easy for a while and had a decent meal.I even had a talk with a friend of mine tonight and he's doing good.
Tonight,I am going to be entertaining the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well.Though I rarely,if ever,have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.I am hoping to try out a few new songs tonight and I hope that I do them well.I love what I do.
Right now,the New Jersey Devils are leading the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 after two periods.I am still hoping that the Sabres will be victorious tonight.After two disappointing home losses,a win would be totally neat.
That was my day and my hoped for night.FJ

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.It was a mixed bag of stuff today.
The work day went by as smoothly as it was expected.I simply did my job and went home.After I got home,my mom told me that a music store called and told me that my special order came in and I could pick it up anytime.I simply went to pick it up after I turned on my computer and after it was fully on,I did a virus scan to start with,so I could see if there were any viruses or spyware on it while I was out.Before I did go to pick up my order,my mom threw one of those "spur of the moment" things on me about taking her grocery shopping tomorrow when I had plans to do more shopping for myself tomorrow.I simply had to make changes in my schedule and agreed to help her.I am simply going to do it on Monday when I will have a day off the whole day with no appointments and nothing else to do.I really do not like these "spur of the moment" things that come up.I know that these things can not be helped at any time under any circumstances.But if my mom needs me to help her with something,the least she can do is talk about it with me ahead of time so I can make changes to my schedule when necessary.I sometimes feel that nobody within my family really cares about how I feel.
The only really good thing to happen today was that there were no viruses or spyware on my computer.I picked up my order at the music store,which is "Weird Al" Yankovic: The Ultimate Video Collection on DVD.I am glad to have this in my library.I am still awaiting my copy of the movie UHF on DVD.I am hoping that it comes soon.
I am also disappointed to see that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Minnesota Wild tonight by a score of 5-1.Tomorrow night,they are hosting the New Jersey Devils at home.I hope that they can beat the Devils tomorrow night.
Tomorrow night is my night to sing for the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well for me.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 08, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.Today was a work day and it went by pretty smoothly.I had a pretty decent day on the job.It went by pretty well.I simply did my job and that was it.I even kept myself busy by reading a book about how to handle my problems with anger and I even read from my bible.It is good to have a goal to set and hope to be accomplished.I have been complimented on my progress and that alone encourages me to keep it up.
Right now,the weather is COLD.Though not as much as it has been lately.I am in the house and anticipating the next day.I am simply taking it easy tonight.This weekend,we're supposed to get warmer weather.I hope that we do because you never know when the gulf stream changes and the same old thing happens.So far,according to the National Weather Service,there has been no change except for the rain possibility.But so far,so good.I am hoping that we can say a fond farewell to this bitterly COLD winter we had this year and have a wonderful Spring.
Tomorrow is yet another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.Tomorrow night is another Buffalo Sabres game.They are hosting the Minnesota Wild.I am hoping that they can beat them.Than after that,it's the weekend.I can hardly wait for that.I will be entertaining the crowd yet again and I am hoping that the night goes good.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, March 07, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling really good.It was a wonderful day today.I had a lot to do and it kept me busy.I did my laundry pick-up today and I went home.I went to meet with my sexual abuse support counselor today and that meeting went great.It was a pretty good day.
Tonight,I went to my support group meeting at the church and that also went great.It was another wonderful meeting.The men in my group are really a swell bunch.They listen to every word I say and they always thank me for sharing my stories.It's great to feel accepted and being made a part of a group,especially when it's a group of men.I am feeling like I am a part of the world of men little by little.I feel like I am accomplishing something here and that makes me feel great.Yes it does.I am looking forward to the next meeting.I am hoping that the next meeting is as good as the last.Though they always are,I still always hope for them to be wonderful.
The only disappointing thing to happen was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Carolina Hurricanes tonight by a score of 3-2.But the Sabres played a great game and put a great effort into it.Their next game is Friday night hosting the Minnesota Wild in Buffalo.I hope that they can win that game.After tonight's loss,a win would be totally sweet.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes smoothly.
That was my day and night

Tuesday, March 06, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Today was another work day for me and that went by smoothly.I simply did my job and the day went by pretty fast.The only drawback was that the weather was bitterly COLD today.The winds were high and they were incredible.It was pretty sunny but it did little to help relieve us of the bitter wind chills.The wind chil at the moment is -9.We have not had it this cold in quite a while.WOW!The temperatures are really bone chilling.I am just glad to be at home.Tonight,we are still having COLD weather and I am hoping that it ends soon.
Tomorrow is going to be simply a pick up day.I just have to pick up a bag or two of laundry and drop it off at the work place.After that,I go home to get ready for my afternoon appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor and then I have my Wednesday night group meeting at the church.I am hoping that both meetings go well.I can hardly wait for both of them.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Colorado Avalanche in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Sabres victory.After the last two victories,another victory would be sweet.Yes it would.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, March 05, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a pretty decent day today.It was not too eventful but I did get a lot accomplished today.It was a day off for me today and I did enjoy it.
The first thing that I got done was that I filed my income tax return.I finally managed to get it done after a little over a month and that made me feel good.I am going to be getting a nice sized refund this year.It is also the first income tax return that I filed in a long time.I was actually happy to get that done.The second thing that I did was that I dropped a record album off at a friend's house.He called to thank me for giving that to him.The third thing that I did was that I had my last meeting with my anger management counselor.I am now going back to regular medication management and that is great.The last two things that I had to do was run a couple of errands for my mother.I got a lot done today and that gives me a feeling of accomplishment.
Right now,I am at home.The weather is extremely COLD with winds blowing up to 35 miles per hour.The wind chill is in the minus single digits and it's bitterly COLD.I am glad that I did not have to do anything after what I had to do.I just stayed home and took it easy.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.
The Buffalo Sabres are playing again this Wednesday night when they host the Carolina Hurricanes in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day today.FJ

Sunday, March 04, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling pretty good.It was a very eventful day today.I managed to go out and get quite a bit done today.I had to run a couple of errands today for myself and that went as well as expected.I had to pick up a few personal things for myself and I also managed to run into a couple of old friends at Wal-Mart,where I was doing my shopping.The day was pretty great.I got a lot accomplished and that was terrific.It was a very good day.I got out and I ran into people that I have not seen in a while.What more can a guy ask for?
Last night was yet another super night.I had a blast entertaining the crowd last night.Like last week,the night started out late but with a different circumstance.There was a special dart tournament going on and there was music playing on the jukebox repeatedly.There was a lot of people there and that was great.The more the merrier.It was such a wonderful night and I got a lot of compliments for the songs that I did,which really made the night worthwhile and FUN.
Tonight,I managed to call a friend tonight and he is doing good.He just got back home tonight and he and his girlfriend are well,which is good.I am glad that he and her are doing great and that they are okay.I even managed to talk with a friend of mine from New Jersey and he is doing great.
The Buffalo Sabres won last night.They defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 3-1.While I am overjoyed that the Sabres are winning back to back games,the only disappointing thing is that Ryan Miller could not get a shutout.It seems that Ryan Miller can not get a break while he is in net.Though he played a great game and he did a great job stopping quite a few shots,he just can not get a shutout.But again,the Sabres won and that also made the night for me.
Tomorrow is a day off for me.I have an appointment with my anger management counselor and it will also be my last appointment with him.After that,I will be going back to regular medication management at the hospital.I am hoping that the session goes well.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, March 03, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling pretty good and optimistic.I am looking forward to tonight.I am going to be doing my usual entertaining the crowd tonight.I am hoping that all goes well.I rarely have an off night,but I always hope for things to go well.I was practicing two songs that I am hoping to do tonight and I am hoping that I will be able to do them well.I always have a balst entertaining the crowd and singing up a storm.I do enjoy what I do.It makes me feel good to make the crowd feel good.Yes it does.
Today was a pretty eventful day.I went to a thrift shop to go clothes shopping and I found some pretty good things.They were mostly sleepwear for winter and I also managed to find another T-Shirt that fit as well.Next Saturday,I am going to another one and I am hoping to find some more stuff that will fit.Not only that,I also managed to find some really hard to find record albums and a few old 8-Tracks.It was a pretty exciting day and I enjoyed myself.Next Saturday,I am going to another one and I am hoping to find some nice stuff that will fit me.It wil be great to have some nice clothes whenever I need them.
Right now,the Buffalo Sabres are leading the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0.I am hoping that the Sabres can make it two in a row.They whomped the Montreal Canadians last night in Buffalo and I am hoping for yet another win.That would be totally sweet.A win by the Sabres tonight would make me really happy.Right now,Darius Zubrius has been penalized for hooking and I am hoping that the Sabres can kill off this penalty successfully and that Ryan Miller can still continue to keep the Maple Leafs scoreless.It's about time that Ryan Miller got a shutout this season.He really deserves one.At this moment,there is a scuffle going on between a Leafs and Sabres player but the referees are breaking it up.The Sabres are now back at full strength.Again,I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day and my hoped for night tonight.FJ

Friday, March 02, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It was a pretty good day today at work.The day went by smoothly and I done what I had to get done.It was another typical day and it went by as smoothly as expected.
This afternoon after work,I simply cashed my paycheck and ran a small errand for my mom.I also managed to get my hair cut.While I was out,I decided to do a thorough scan on my computer for viruses and/or spyware and there was a virus on it.It was called the "Downloader" virus and according to my anti-virus program and the site where the anti virus program originated,it was a high risk type of virus of the "Trojan Horse" variety and the program did resolve it.But I still had to get rid of it.After turning off my system recovery and restarting it,I managed to remove the virus from my database and deleted it from my files.After I did my e-mail work,I did yet another scan on my computer and there were no viruses or spyware in my database.That was a relief.I hate it when my computer gets infected with a virus or even spyware.But again,I am gald to have this anti-virus software on my computer.It's my insurance that I will know when there is something in my computer that should not be there.
The best thing about tonight is that the Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.They defeated the Montreal Canadians by a score of 8-5.It was a wild game.There were plenty of goals scored and it was like a shootout.But again,the Sabres came away with a victory tonight.
Tomorrow,I am hoping to make it out to another thrift shop in hopes of buying some new clothes.I am hoping that I will find something that fits.I am in need of some new clothes.I hope to find some.Tomorrow night,I will be entertaining the crowd once again.I am hoping that the night goes good.Though I rarely have a bad night,I always still hope that the night goes good.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 01, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.I had a very good past couple of days.Today was a work day and it went by pretty smoothly.I spent much of the day doing what had to be done and it went by pretty well.It was a pretty smooth day.Weather wise,it was a mixed bag of precipitation.It started lightly snowing then it turned to rain,which was a little bit freezing.But still,I got through the day and it was a pretty good day.
Yesterday,I made it out to the thrift shop but could not find really anything that fit me,with the exception of a T-Shirt.But I managed to find some oldie 45's.That way,I did not leave empty handed.It was a pretty exciting day yesterday.Last night,I went to my support group meeting at the church and it was yet another wonderful meeting.I am really getting an awful lot out of these meetings and they are working out.It is great to feel accepted by a group of men and sharing what's on your mind without being judged or ignored.It's great that these men are listening to me when I am talking and it is rewarding when you can talk and be heard and not having to worry about harsh judgements or even worse;rejection.But again,I am glad to have found out about this group and I am also glad to be attending these meetings.I am looking forward to attending the next meeting.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Montreal Canadians in Buffalo tomorrow night.Then after that,the weekend.I will be entertaining the crowd as usual.The Buffalo Sabres are having a rematch against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto on Saturday night.I am hoping for back to back wins against these two teams.
That was my day today and my day yesterday.FJ

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in feeling pretty good.I had a very good work day.The day went by pretty smoothly.I simply went through the day doing my job and it made me feel good.I still had to go through yet another day of coughing but I am feeling hopeful that I will feel better soon.I just started taking the medication and it takes time for it to work.Again,I am feeling hopeful.
Tomorrow is simply a pick-up day.I just have to pick up a load or two and drop it off at the work site.I am also hoping that I will be able to make it to the thrift shop so I can shop for new clothes.You never know when you're going to need new nice clothes.I am hoping to find something that will fit.Tomorrow night is a meeting night.I am hoping that the meeting goes well.They have been going well but I still hope for every meeting to go well.
The best thing to happen tonight was that the Buffalo Sabres kicked the energy out of the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight by a score of 6-1.It was a great game.Their next game is this Friday night hosting the Montreal Canadians in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Sabres victory.After they kicked the Maple Leafs out of Toronto,I am hoping that they can do the same thing to the Canadians.
The Sabres made some trades today.Martin Biron went to the Flyers for a second round draft pick next season.Jiri Novotny and the Sabres first round draft selection next season went to the Capitals.The Sabres aquired defensemen Timo Helbing and center Darius Zubrus from the Capitols.The Sabres aquired a back up goaltender from the Columbus Blue Jackets named Ty Conklin in exchange for the Sabres fifth round draft selection next season.A lot of activity during the trade day during the last minutes of the day.Tonight,it has been working because they won tonight.WHAT A GAME!
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 26, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Today was a day off from work and it was a pretty decent day.I had a doctor's appointment today and I got a prescription for my irritated throat and for my blood pressure.I am feeling a little bit better than yesterday.I am hoping that I continue to improve in my physical health.My irritated throat has been really getting the better of me and I am hoping that it can finally be gotten rid of.I hate having a dry scratchy throat where I am coughing a lot because of it.But again,I am hoping to be rid of it soon.
I was hoping to go to another thrift shop today but due to a bad snow storm,I put the trip on hold until Wednesday,which I am hoping is better weather because I hate it when an unexpected snow storm comes when I plan to do something.I know that it's winter and we have to expect these things.But this is over strecting the season a little.Again,I am hoping that it gets better for Wednesday.I would like to have some new clothes because you never know when you're going to need them.But I did get one thing accoplished today.I did mange to drop off some old clothes that did not fit me anymore to a thrift shop that I normally buy at,which made me feel good.I also managed to get a few errands for my mother done.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes by smoothly.There have been some pretty good to fairly decent days but I am always hoping for things to go by smoothly each and every work day.That is the only thing that I can do.Again,I hope that the work day goes smoothly for me tomorrow.
That was my day today.FJ

Sunday, February 25, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The day was a not to eventful one.I ran a couple of errands and that was it.But I did not have an awful lot to do.In my hometown,there is really nothing to do,especially when it is winter and the snow is falling with winds blowing it all around and the weather being cold.But I always manage to keep myself entertained.
Tonight,I had a couple of pretty good conversations with a couple of friends.They are both doing great.The first was a friend who lives in my hometown who is visiting his future in-laws.The second was a friend from New Jersey who I met nearly three years ago in PA.They were great conversations and I had a ball talking to them.Yes I did.It was not too bad of an evening.I am now at home relaxing.
Last night,I had another successful night entertaining the crowd.I did my George Harrison tribute and it was well received.I love doing tributes to my favorite dead artists and it is always a gas to do it for a very appreciative crowd.I always look forward to doing it every week.It gets better and better.
The only disappointment was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Ottawa Senators last night by a score of 6-5.I have to give the team some kudos because they did play a great game and yes,it was rough with a lot of fighting going on.But again,the Sabres played a great game.Their next game is Tuesday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto.I am hoping for a Sabres win.
Tomorrow morning is a doctor's appointment.I have a throat infection that will not go away.I am hoping that the doctor can do something about it.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 24, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.I am feeling much better than last night.I do not have that recurring headache that I had last night that just kept recurring.I am looking forward to tonight.I am going to be singing up a storm tonight.As I have previously reported,I will be doing a George Harrison tribute tonight because it is his birthday and I always do a tribute to Him and John Lennon when their birthdays come around.I really enjoy doing this every year when their birthdays come around.Then again,I always pay tribute to the both of them every time I sing one of their songs.It is always my pleasure to entertain the crowd and I look forward to that every week.I hope that everything goes great tonight.Though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for everything to go great because you never know what might happen.
At this moment,the Buffalo Sabres are playing against the Ottawa Senators in Ottawa and they are leading the game 1-0 in the first period.I am hoping that the Sabres can make it two consecutive wins over the Senators.After what happened on Thursday night,I am hoping that the Sabres can get their revenge on the Senators.A win would be really sweet.I am hoping for a victory.Thursday night's victory in a shootout was great and another win tonight would be totally neat.
Today was a pretty decent day.The sun shined today and it felt a little warmer today.We are supposed to be getting warmer next week.I did not do too much today.I just ran an errand and that was it.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, February 23, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by pretty smoothly and I managed to get done what I had to get done.It was not too bad of a day and I did get a lot accomplished.Right now,I am trying to get rid of a headache that has been recurring.Last night I had one and tonight,I got it again.I am hoping that it goes away soon.I did take something for it and I am hoping that it goes away soon.
Last nights hockey game is still the talk of the town.The big brawl that happened last night is still being talked about all over Western New York.The Sabres are asking the league to thoroughly examine the tapes of the game because the Sabres are trying to point out that some of the Ottawa Senators players started the scuffle.One of them intentionally bumped into Chris Drury and he's out with a concusion for a while.Each and every time the Senators come to town to play the Sabres,they are always starting something.Tomorrow night is a rematch in Ottawa.I hope that the Sabres can beat them again.Yes I do.That was baloney what the Senators did to Chris Drury and keeping him out for the remainder of the season.I hope that Chris Drury gets over his concussion real soon.It would be terrible if he had to sit out of the playoffs.
I am just glad that the weekend is finally here.I will be singing up a storm tomorrow night.I will be doing a tribute to George Harrison tomorrow night because it is his birthday tomorrow.I hope that it goes well.
Again,I hope that the Buffalo Sabres can defeat the Ottawa Senators in Ottawa.Another victory can show the Senators that you don't mess with the Sabres and get away with it.Once again,I hope that they can win another game over Ottawa.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 22, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.After a pretty smooth work day,I had to have a negative verbal scuffle with an unreasonable person.It was a misunderstanding over snack foods that were left around the social club when a person said that I could help myself.I did and what happens,this guy comes off the street after having a cigarette and gets apprehensive about it.Apparently,the food was meant for something else but when I tried to tell him calmly that somebody offered it to me,he still remained apprehensive.After three tries,I gave up and told the staff about it.It worked out pretty good.Fortunately for me,I had to go home because my work day was through.I did not let it get to me because I felt that the coordinator will do his job and everything will turn out for the better.Again,though minor,I did not let it get to me.My day was over and it was pretty smooth up to that point.
I also had to help my mother out today after I got home from work.After that,I did some work around the house and I also had to help my niece out.It was not too bad of a night.
The only really good thing to happen tonight was a Buffalo Sabres victory.They defeated the Ottawa Senators in a shootout by a score of 6-5.There was a really big brawl tonight at the game between several Senators and Sabres players in which even the goaltenders got in a scuffle.The big brawl lasted 15 minutes.There was also a shouting match between Sabres coach Lindy Ruff and Senators coach Bryan Murray behind the benches.What a night it was for the Buffalo Sabres and even the fans who were at the game.I just caught the footage on the news and it was intense.The only noteable thing is that it marked the debut of a hometown boy named Pat Kaleta.Plus,the best thing was Drew Stafford scoring the game winner in the shootout.Still,what a night it was for the Sabres and the fans.This game is truly one of those "unforgettable experiences" in the game.Ice Hockey can be a rough sport but it is always FUN and EXCITING to watch.
Tomorrow is another work day.After that,it's the weekend and I will again be entertaining the crowd as I usually do.I can hardly wait for that.
That was my day and night.FJ

Wednesday, February 21, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.I had a wonderful day and night.Today,after dropping off the laundry at work,I went and did a little shopping at a thrift store.I found some really nice clothes that fit me pretty good.I did not even have to try them on.I just went over to a ruler they had and they were my size.The vast majority of them did not fit me but I found a few that did,which was great.This coming Monday,I might go out to another thrift store and see if there is anything more that do.Not only that,I also managed to add a few more record albums and singles to my ever growing record collection,which was also great.
Plus,I had a great session with my sexual abuse support counselor this afternoon.She gave me a little bit more good advice on how I can effectively handle my emotional problems and not be afraid to write what I am feeling down whenever an old feeling of anger comes around and all of a sudden,I am wound up in it.She is showing me how to handle the rage of emotions properly and tactfully so I do not get wound up in it.That made feel good.
Tonight,I went to my support group at the church and that went terrific.I made up for lost time from the cancellation last week and talked about everything that I wanted to get off my chest and that made me feel good.I shared what my sexual abuse support counselor advised me to do and the men simply nodded to indicate that they were listening,which was great.Again,I am glad to have found this group and I am also glad that I am attending the meetings.It feels great to finally feel accepted and have other men listen to you,which is better than ignoring you.Ignoring others is the worst form of emascualtion.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Ottawa Senators.I am hoping for another win by them.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tonight,I check in feeling good.It was a pretty good day today and I had a very smooth work day.The day went by pretty well and that was great.I even managed to make it to a store to try on some clothes.The only disappointment is that they did not fit.But then again,what can you expect at times from a second hand store.Sometimes you will find something that fits and sometimes you don't.But it is fun wanting to try something on before you buy it.
I even talked to a friend of mine tonight and he's doing good.He and his girlfriend were watching the Buffalo Sabres hosting the Philadelphia Flyers in Buffalo.I had the game on the radio because I do not have the luxury of cable TV at the moment.But that can change later on.Right now,cable TV is expensive and even satellite,though cheaper by comparison,is also expensive.But when I can afford it,I would like to get it.But now,I will just have to settle on the old radio.
Speaking of the Sabres game tonight,they clobbered the Philadelphia Flyers by a score of 6-3.It was non-stop Sabres scoring the whole game that made it.It was like that they scored 2 goals a period.It was AWESOME!Yes it was.The Buffalo Sabres host the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night.I am hoping that they can close their home stand with a victory over the Senators.After that,the Sabres travel to Ottawa for a re-match on Saturday night.I am hoping that the Sabres can get two consecutive wins over the Senators.They did defeat them in Buffalo on the 7th of this month by a score of 3-2.Again,I am hoping that the Sabres can do it again.
Tomorrow morning is a pick-up.Tomorrow afternoon is my appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor.Tomorrow night is my support group meeting at the church tomorrow night.I am hooping that all goes well throughout the day.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It was a pretty quiet day and it also was a holiday.Nothing really to do on a holiday except stay at home and take it easy.I did manage to run a few errands today.I also managed to help out a relative who was quite appreciative in me helping her.I went home and I took it easy for the rest of the night.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the work day goes smoothly.They have been going better since I have made some changes to the way I do things during the day and that is making me feel better.I have been keeping my emotions under control and I have been complimented on my progress by my supervisor and my counselors.The compliments have made me feel good.But still,I am taking this one day at a time.If I go through one day without getting angry and/or enraged,that is good.There is always another day and that day has it's challenges.Not only that,I can not think of "never getting angry again" because I will get angry at times and when it happens and how I express it,I'll just have to cross that bridge when I come to it.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Philadelphia Flyers and I am hoping for a Buffalo Sabres victory.A victory would be really great.
That was my day.FJ

Sunday, February 18, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.I have a very eventful day.I had to run errands for my mom and I also helped out a friend tonight.That made feel good.He also thanked me for helping me,which really made feel great inside.It is great to help a friend out and have him show his appreciation to you for helping him.It also makes a man feel really good.I really like that.I am going to strive to help out people more often when asked.
Last night,I went out and had a ball.I sang the three new songs that I was planning and the crowd really enjoyed them.They said that it was wonderful what I did and they showed their appreciation in more ways than one.I really enjoy what I do.I also enjoy it when others enjoy what I do.It makes me feel good inside.That is why I do it every week because it makes me feel good to make them feel good.
The Buffalo Sabres lost in a shootout to the Boston Bruins last night by a score of 4-3.But the Sabres put a great effort in the game and for that I am proud.The Sabres host the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.I am hoping that they can emerge victorious after that disappointing loss.A win would be awesome.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 17, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a pretty decent day today in my neck of the woods.I took it easy for most of the day.I did run a small errand for my mom today and I also had to help my niece out earlier tonight.Again,it was pretty decent day today and I got at least a little bit done.It was still an accomplishment and it made me feel good.I am at home at the moment relaxing until I go out to entertain the crowd tonight.I hope that it goes well.Again,though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.I am hoping to try out a few new songs tonight and I hope that it works out.
Right now,the Sabres are playing the Bruins tonight.The Bruins are leading 3-1 at the moment but I am still hoping for a Sabres win tonight.I hope that they can win.Right now,the Bruins have been penalized for a delay of game.The Sabres are going to be on the power play for the next two minutes.I hope that they can tie the score.It is in the second period at the moment.Again,I hope that the Sabres can get another victory tonight.Another victory would be totally sweet.
That was my day and my hoped for night.FJ

Friday, February 16, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by as smoothly as expected and it was wonderful.I just did my job and the day went by pretty well.I had a good day and that was pretty good.
The weather is still COLD and the wind is blowing.I am at home relaxing as the wind blows the snow all over the place.According to the National Weather Service,we have to endure two more days of extreme COLD before it starts warming up starting next week.On Monday,it will be in the upper 20's before going in the 30's on Tuesday.There is nothing to do when the weather is COLD and there is no place to go in the area where I live.But I am not complaining.It is just the way of the season and I am just going with the flow.That is all I can do.But I am remaing hopeful that things will get better weatherwise and I also hope that the jet stream does not change and we get it COLD again.But again,that is the way of the season and I am just going with it.
Tomorrow night is the night that I go out to entertain the crowds and I am hoping for a wonderful night.The Boston Bruins are coming to town to play the Buffalo Sabres and I am hoping for another Sabres win.Regarding my entertaining the crowds every Saturday night,I rarely have an off night but I still hope for things to go good.You never know.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 15, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling a little bit better than yesterday.Yesterday I was depressed due to the fact that the weather was COLD and that the meeting that I was supposed to go to was cancelled.Again,I understand why they had to cancel and I respect their reason for doing so,mainly due to the weather.But it was still depressing.I was looking forward to the meeting.But again,I understand the reasons why and I respect them.There is always next Wednesday night and I am going to that meeting.I hope that the meeting goes great.
Today was yet another work day and it was a full day.It went by as smoothly as expected and that was good.I got a lot done and that made me feel good.Yes it did.It was a pretty good day.The weather was cold but not as cold as it was yesterday.Tonight,it is pretty COLD and the wind is lightly blowing.I can not wait until next week when it starts to warm up starting Tuesday.Until then,we have to deal with and endure more frigid winter conditions and some more bitterly COLD temperatures.Boy,I can not wait for it to get warmer.I know that it's winter and this type of weather is to be expected during this time of the year.But again,I still can not wait for it to get warmer.
Tonight,I am feeling better because the Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.The defeated the Edmonton Oilers in overtime by a score of 2-1.Thanks once again to Daniel Briere for the game winner in overtime.
Tomorrow is Friday.It is another work day and then,the weekend will be upon us.I can hardly wait to entertain the crowds again Saturday night.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, February 14, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.The reason being is that the meeting that I was supposed to go to was cancelled due to the snow storm that we are having.Don't get me wrong,I do respect the reasons why the meeting was cancelled and I understand that the weather is really treacherous at the moment with all the snowfall and bitter wind chills and travel would be dangerous in this type of weather.I was disappointed but it was for a good reason.It also saved me from making a phone call and it also saved me a trip and some gas.The only good thing is that there will be one next Wednesday night and I will be looking forward to that.It was disappointing,yes.But still,it is better to be safe than sorry.
Right now,the weather is COLD.The snow is falling and the wind chills are in the minus teens.But the snow is supposed to taper off by tomorrow early morning.I hope so.We are going to get another snow fall in the area Thursday night into Friday morning.We are supposed to get a break on Saturday but it will start again Saturday night into Sunday morning that will progress on into Sunday evening.The cycle of winter.Then again,we have not had it that bad in this neck of the woods this year,so far.By comparison to the rest of the state of New York,specifically the Southern Tier and Ski Country's,we have a light dusting by comparison.It has not been this bad in 30 years since the infamous Blizzard Of '77.But still,this snowfall pales in comparison and though the weather has been COLD,we still have a light dusting by comparison to the rest of New York state.Still,it's winter and we have to expect this.
Tomorrow is another work day.It will be a full day.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are playing the Edmonton Oilers when they come to Buffalo.I hope that the Sabres can beat the Oilers tomorrow night.
That was my day.FJ

Tuesday, February 13, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by as smoothly as expected and that was good.I concentrated on my job and the day went by pretty smoothly.It makes me feel a bit better.Tomorrow is just a pick up day.I am just going to pick up and go home.
Tonight,the snow is falling and it is COLD.The heavy snow warning that was issued was originally supposed to expire at 5:00p.m. tomorrow but that has been changed to 2:00p.m. tomorrow.I am still hoping to go to the meeting tomorrow night at the church and I am hoping that the snow is not too heavy for my half-hour drive to get there.I am geting a lot out of these meetings and I am enjoying them.The men in the group are a swell bunch and they are actually making me feel right at home with them,which is terrific.Again,I am planning to be there.I am going to get an awful lot out of the meeting as I have been.
The Buffalo Sabres are playing again on Thursday night when the Edmonton Oilers come to town.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 12, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.The weather is still COLD but I am hanging in there.We will have a Hevay Snow Warning in effect for my area from 5:00 p.m.Tuesday to 5:00p.m. Wednesday.But again,it's winter and we have to expect these things to happen.According to the National Weather Service,there will be heavy snowfall during the afternoon,evening and overnight and will taper off by mid afternoon on Wednesday.I hope that it does not get too heavy because I am still planning to go to my group on Wednesday night to get a lot out of what I am getting out of it at the moment.These group metings have been helping me a lot and they have been very awarding.Again,I am hoping that it does not get too heavy.I am still planning to go to the group meeting.
Today,I just took it easy for most of the day.I only ran a couple of errands for two of my members and that was it.Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the work day goes as smoothly as expected.
The next time the Sabres play is Thursday night when the Edmonton Oilers come to town.I hope that the Sabres can beat the Oilers.They have been doing great since February began and I hope that they can continue to do great.
That was my day and night.FJ

Sunday, February 11, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I am at home right now relaxing.The weather is still COLD with bitter wind chills in the minus single digits with no end in sight for the foreseeable future.February is definitely the coldest month in the winter and the weather right now shows it.
Last night,I went out to entertain the crowd and the night was yet another huge success for me.The crowd enjoyed my song selections and they did show their appreciation in more ways than one.That made me feel good.It was a wonderful night.I enjoyed myself and the crowd enjoyed me.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres won in a shootout last night over the Calgary Flames by a score of 3-2.Ales Kotalik was the hero last night who won it for Buffalo in the shootout.It was a great night with the crowd enjoying me and the Buffalo Sabres won.It was a wonderful night.I had a ball and that made me feel good.
Today,I had to run an errand for my mom to get something for dinner tonight.That went well as planned.The weather was cold but not as cold as it is tonight.But still,I got something done and that made me feel good.
I did have a talk with a friend from New Jersey and he is doing good.I had a nice talk with him and that made my night a little bit better.Again,I am right now relaxing and taking it easy.
Tomorrow is a day off for me.I am going to take it easy tomorrow and enjoy my day off.I am also going to get ready for Tuesday,which is a work day for me.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 10, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling a little bit better than the past couple of days.I have been feeling just okay the last couple of days/nights and now tonight,I can say that I am feeling a bit better.Tonight is my night to entertain the crowds again.I am looking forward to that with a lot of enthusiasm and anticipation.I am hoping that the night goes great.Again,I rarely if ever have an off night,I still hope for things to go good.You never know what might happen.Plus,after what happened to me on Thursday,I can now forget that and be where there are people who do indeed appreciate me and what I do.If the night's a success,I can say YES within myself and smile brightly.Why?Because my night was a success and those who like to put me down for my talent and show off how jealous they are,they actually know where they can go and what they can do to themselves.That is why I will be smiling.
Another reason why I am feeling better is this;I have now added a few more friends to my friends list over on My Space and they are entertainers themselves.It's great to meet other people who have something in common with you.I am feeling a bit better and that is great.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are playing the Calgary Flames in Buffalo.I hope that the Sabres can win another one tonight.It was wonderful finally seeing them defeat the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday night.Now tonight,I hope that they can beat Calgary.Another win would be SUPER.Yes it would.
That was my day and again,I am hoping that the night goes well.FJ

Friday, February 09, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went as well as expected.Not too bad of a day with nothing negative to write home about.I am at home at the moment typing up this post and sharing what went on im my day.Nothing really negative happened.I just did my job and when the time came to leave,I just did.Today was a bit warmer with some cold staying around.Right now,it is a bit windy.I have no place to go tonight and I am just going to stay home and relax.
The weekend will be here any minute.I can hardly wait for that.I am going to be singing up a storm tomorrow night.I always look forward to entertaining the crowds on Saturday night.I do not know what I am going to do tomorrow night,but I know it will be great.Again,I am looking forward to that.
Later on,I am just going to sit down in the living room and watch a movie.After that,I am going to go to bed.I do have the day off tomorrow and Sunday so I am just going to watch a movie and go to bed afterwards.
The Buffalo Sabres are playing tomorrow night against the Calgary Flames in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win tomorrow night.I am glad that the Buffalo Sabres are doing great this year.I hope that they continue to do great through the rest of the season.It would be great to finally have a world championship team in Buffalo.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 08, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by as smoothly as it should and it was pretty good.I simply did my job and let nothing get in the way of doing it.I also had to do a couple of favors for my mom today before I went home.When I got home,I simply took it easy for a while and did my personal computer work.It was not too bad of a day today despite a negative occurance that happened between me and some jerk who loves to criticize other people's talents because he does not have that certain talent.After I told him to "Go To Hell!",he simply left and did not return.It just goes to show that if you can't take it,don't give it.
Tonight,the weather is once again COLD.The winds are blowing and the wind chill is -8 below freezing.The winds are making it feel COLDER than it really is.But I am in the house and I am relaxing.The wind can blow all it wants to.I am just going to stay inside and get ready for the next day.It is another work day and I am hoping that it goes smoothly as the work day for me did today despite that negative occurance.But hey,that person was just showing off how jealous he was of my singing talent.I happen to be a respected entertainer in my hometown and I always look forward to doing that every Saturday night in front of the people who truly appreciate me.I can hardly wait for that.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, February 07, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in feeling really good.It was another wonderful Wednesday night for me.I went to my group meeting tonight at the church and it went great.I had another wonderful meeting with them.I really like going to these groups.They are really swell.The men in the group are a swell bunch.I have said it before.I'll say it again.I am glad to have found out about this group.It has been doing me a lot of good.I am looking forward to the next meeting.I hope that it's just as wonderful as tonights.
Tonight,I am also jumping for joy.The Buffalo Sabres defeated the Ottawa Senators tonight by a score of 3-2.This finally ends Ottawa's domination over Buffalo.Ever since this season began,the Senators have owned the Sabres.It was hard to believe that the Sabres eliminated the Senators from the playoffs last year in overtime.But tonight,the Sabres finally turned the tables on the Senators by defeating them on home ice.How sweet it is!Their next game,on home ice,is Saturday night when the Calgary Flames come to town.Tonight's game is the start of a 6 game home stretch.I am hoping for a third consecutive win Saturday night.Yes I do.They are in 1st Place in their division at the moment.That is totally AWESOME.A win Saturday night would be even more AWESOME.I hope that it happens.
That was my night.FJ

Tuesday, February 06, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went as well as expected.I am now at home relaxing and listening to the hockey game.The game,between the Buffalo Sabres and the Atlanta Thrashers,is tied 3-3.I am hoping that the Sabres can win this game tonight.It will be neat for them to win this game after two consecutive disappointing losses.Again,I am hoping for a Buffalo win.Right now,they are in overtime.
Tonight,the weather is COLD.The wind chill is -15 below freezing at the moment and I am in the house.Earlier today,when I returned to my vehicle after sorting out the laundry while my vehicle was still running,I saw that my coolant gage was in the middle,which was unusual.I drove to find a parking space and I turned on my heater and the gage went back to just before the middle,where it normally is when I am driving.After waiting a while after parking my vehicle,I went out to it around lunch time to check my radiator and I noticed that it was low.I filled it with a little bit of anti-freeze and closed the radiator.Later,when I went out to my vehicle to warm it up,no problems as I was driving it home.But still,I am going to have my mechanic check it out to be on the safe side because I have a group meeting tomorrow night and I don't want nothing to go wrong as I am going down or even coming back.I want to go to my meeting and I want to get what I am getting out of these meetings whenever I attend them.Again,I am hoping that nothing is really wrong.I am determined to go to the meeting.
Tomorrow is another appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor.I am hoping that the meeting with her goes well.
This just in,the Buffalo Sabres defeat the Atlanta Thrashers in a shootout by a score of 4-3.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 05, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I am at home at the moment.It is bitterly COLD out and there is nothing to do nor is there anywhere to go on a night like this when the weather is as COLD as it is tonight.It can be boring when there is a situation like this one.Yes it can be.But I am just going with the flow,staying home and getting ready for the work day tomorrow.I am hoping that the work day goes good tomorrow.
I had my couseling session today for anger management and that went well.My next session,which is next month,will be my last session with him and I will be going back to regular med management.My counselor is impressed with the progress that I have made in the last several months and so is my supervisor.It is a great feeling knowing that you are accomplishing something that you have been trying to accomplish for a long time and not getting anywhere.I have seen that I have come a long way since then.But still,I am taking life one day at a time and looking at terms of overcoming and controlling emotions as one day at a time accomplishments.If you suceed one day,enjoy it.But the next day will be different and it has it's own challenges as the previous day.It goes on every day and you can't let any good progress go to your head.You have to keep on,press on and take it,again,one day at a time.
That was my day.FJ

Sunday, February 04, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had to run a few errands today and that kept me busy.It was a bitterly COLD day today as I was doing them.Yes it was.But I was just getting on with my business and getting my errands done so I could relax and take it easy for the rest of the day.There is really nothing to do in my area with the weather being as bitterly COLD as it is at the moment.Right now,I am at home and it is COLD at the moment.
Last night,my night of entertaining the crowds was another success.The only drawback was that there was not an awful lot of people there last night due to the COLD weather but it was still a great night.I had a ball and the crowd enjoyed my song selections and that made me feel good.The only disappointment was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the New Jersey Devils last night by a score of 3-2.Their next game is on Tuesday night against the Atlanta Thrashers in Atlanta.I hope that they can beat them on Tuesday night.A win would be totally sweet and it would make me feel better after that disappointing loss to the New Jersey Devils.
Tonight,I am sitting at home relaxing.Again,the night is bitterly COLD and windy with wind chils in the -15 range.If that's not COLD,then I don't know what is.During the superbowl,my mom and I watched the Beatles movie A Hard Day's Night in my VCR/DVD Player combo on DVD and that was neat.It was wonderful to have this film on DVD and watch it on that format.It was a wonderful night despite the FRIGID COLD temperatures.But I had nothing else to do due to the weather,so it was a wonderful night.
The National Weather Service has already stated that there is no relief in sight at the moment from the weather we are having.The weather will continue for quite a while with no relief in the near future as far as the rest of this week and the next few weeks go.But still,that could change,though I will not hold my breath on it.
That was my day and night.FJ

Saturday, February 03, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I am right now at home taking it easy.I am getting ready for tonight.I will be entertaining the crowds again as I usually do.I am hoping that the night goes good.Though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.But again,I hope that everything goes well.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are playing the New Jersey Devils.At the moment,the Sabres are leading 1-0 after the first period.Two more periods to go.Again,I am hoping for a Buffalo win.
Tonight,at the moment,the weather is COLD.The wind is blowing and there is snow all over the place.For much of the day,the visibility was not the way it should have been.I was out driving today doing some personal purchases and the area that I had to travel to was almost zero visibility.In weather like this,you do have to be careful that you do not get hit or that you do not hit anybody.You do have to be careful.So,I am going to be careful tonight.
There probably will not be an awful lot of people tonight at the place.If that is the case,I just might call it an early night and hope that the next week will be better.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, February 02, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went as well as to be expected.It was a pretty good day.I also had to run a few errands before going home from work.The weather at the moment is very COLD and windy.I am in the house and I am relaxing.It is great to be in the house on a COLD night.In my area,there is really nothing to do on a COLD day or night.So,I just stay home and relax and get ready for the next week.
Tomorrow night,I will be entertaining the crowds again at the place where I do that.I always look forward to doing that every Saturday night.It always makes me feel really good to entertain others and the people always showing their appreciation.I am just overjoyed that the weekend is finally here.I can concentarte on the next week and hope for the week to go good.It was a great week for me this week.I hope that the next is even better.
I also hope for a Buffalo Sabres victory tomorrow night when they play against the New Jersey Devils in New Jersey.A third consecutive win would be totally neat.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 01, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.The day went by pretty well.I had a pretty good day at work as well.It just went by as smoothly as expected.I simply did my job and it was great.During my lunch break,I picked up a few things for the home so I could go straight home and relax.When I got home today,a DVD that I was waiting for finally came in and that was great.I even tried it out in my VCR/DVD combo and it works good.It was the classic Beatles movie HELP!,which I have been eagerly wanting to add to my DVD library.I now have it and that is totally cool.Yes it is.If only they would bring Let It Be to DVD.That would be "IT!"
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres were victorious again.The defeated the Boston Bruins by a score of 3-1.Two back to back victories over the Bruins is totally neato.Their next game is Saturday night against the New Jersey Devils in New Jersey.I am hoping for a third consecutive win.The Sabres already have a great record and it would be greater to add to it with another win.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes as good as today did.After that,it's the weekend.I will be doing my usual entertaining the crowds on Saturday night.I hope that it goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, January 31, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a very stressful day.After I got home from work,I got a rude awakening from my auto insurance company about my money being due.I never received a bill this month and when I called my company via their automated service,I was told that I owed no money until February.When I returned the call,they told me that my insurance was past due and it would be cancelled if I did not pay bu February 5th.Well,I did pay it and it's out of the way and I have nothing to worry about until next month.While it was upsetting getting that telephone call without knowing that there was a payment due,I was relieved that I was reminded about it and it's paid for until February.I also had to run another errand for my mother.
You know something,despite these stressful situations,I was surprised that I did not get angry or lose my temper over them.I must be doing something right.Despite this good progress,I am still taking life and my issues one day at a time.
Tonight,I went to my support group at the church and the meeting was awesome.I got a lot out of it and that was super.I always look forward to the meetings every Wednesday night.I am looking forward to the next one.I am hoping that it's as awesome as the last one.
Tomorrow is another full work day.I hope that the day goes well.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tuesday, January 30, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in feeling really good.It was yet another wonderful day for me.I went to work and that went as smoothly as it did.I simply did my job and everything just worked out that way it was supposed to.Yes it did.I had a great day.It was truly a wonderful day even though it was cold out and snowy.This evening,I took a drive out to a town in the next county and bought some more horror DVD's.I am hoping to watch them over the next few weeks.I am hoping that they are great films.I love a great scary movie.
Tonight,I am feeling good for another reason.The Buffalo Sabres were victorious tonight.They clobbered the Boston Bruins by a score of 7-1 tonight.It was a truly awesome game.The Sabres scored non-stop all throughout the game playing the game like they did when the season started.It was a totally awesome happening game.They are playing the Bruins again on Thursday.I am hoping for another win.Back to back wins against the Bruins would be totally neato.Yes it would.Again,I am hoping for a win.
Tomorrow is a work day.But I am only doing a pick-up and that is all.After that,I can relax and take it easy for the rest of the day until the evening.I will be attending my group tomorrow night.
That was my day and night.FJ

Monday, January 29, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Today was a mild day outside with only a little snowfall.There was also some snow melted during the mildness of today.I even managed to shovel up some snow and ice off and even sprinkle some ice melt to ensure that the mail carrier will not get hurt when he/she delivers the mail.It was another eventful day.I had to run an errand for my mom today and even got a couple of things done for myself.It was a great day out.I am right now at home relaxing and the weather is cold out.I am not going anyplace else tonight so I am just going to stay home and prepare for the work day tomorrow.Yes,tomorrow is a work day and I am hoping that it goes good.I hope that nothing negative happens to me on the job.I hope that it goes as smoothly as it can and nothing frustrating happens.
Today went by pretty fast.It was sunny,mild and not too cold.Right now,as I have stated earlier,the weather is cold but not too cold.But I have no place to go.So,I am just going to take it easy and prepare for the work day.Again,I hope that the work day goes good.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are playing against the Boston Bruins in Buffalo and I am hoping that they win.After two consecutive disappointing losses,a win would be totally neat.Again,I hope that they can beat the Bruins.
That was my day today.FJ

Sunday, January 28, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It is a very cold night.I am at home right now resting comfortably and I am anticipating the coming week.I am in the house because there is really no place to go on a cold night like this.So,I am staying home tonight.
Last night,I went out to entertain the crowd and I had a great time.A friend that has not come out in a while actually came out and we both had a great time singing up a storm.I just love to entertain people.The night went by well and it made me feel good.I am looking forward to next Saturday.I am hoping that next Saturday goes as well as last night.I always have a ball entertaining the crowd and it makes me feel good when they feel good.
The only disappointing thing is that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the New York Islanders by a score of 4-3.Tuesday,they are playing the Boston Bruins.I am hoping for a win.That would be totally neat.I would be overjoyed if the Sabres can beat the Bruins.
Today,I ran a few errands.I got everything done that I had to get done and that gave me a sense of accomplishment.I even had a talk with a friend of mine fron New Jersey and that was great.It was great to hear from him.
Tomorrow is a day off for me.I will be taking it easy and prepare for the work week at the same time.I hope that the week goes by smoothly and I get everything that I need to get done throughout the week.You never know what might happen.
That was my day and night for both nights.FJ

Saturday, January 27, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.At the moment,the Buffalo Sabres and the New York Islanders are tied 3-3.I am hoping that the Sabres can win tonight after that disappointing loss on Friday night.It would be truly neat to see that they win tonight.It would make me happy to hear that they won tonight.I am hoping for a victory tonight.A victory tonight would be totally sweet.Again,I hope that they can win one tonight.
Tonight,I am going to be singing again for my friends and I am hoping that it goes well.Though I rarely have an off night singing and entertaining,I still always hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.Again,I hope that things go well.
I had a pretty good day today.The weather was a bit warmer today and some of the snow melted.I also shoveled a little bit for the mail carrier so he/she would not slip and fall.The minute that I got done and went back in,the mail carrier left a little mail.I also ran an errand today for myself while for most of the day,I had the place to myself because my mother went shopping.It is now evening and the temps have dropped some and it is kind of cold but not as it has been over the past couple of weeks.It will be back in the 20's when the new week begins.Again,I will be looking forward to entertaining the crowds tonight.I am hoping that everything goes good.
That was my day and what my night will hopefully be like.FJ

Friday, January 26, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Tonight is bitterly cold.The wind chill factor is -12 below zero.It is COLD.This has been the coldest that it's ever been all winter.Tomorrow,we are supposed to get up to the 30's again.The roller coaster ride begins again.We have had it cold the past couple of weeks and now,we are going to back in the 30's tomorrow.WOW!Pretty topsy turvy weather we have been having lately.One minute it's COLD.The next minute it warms up a tad.I guess the atmosphere will be topsy turvy for a while.
Today was yet another work day.I did my job and that went as well as could be expected.Nothing really negative to write about.It was a pretty good day.When I got home,I simply went upstairs to lie down because I was tired and mainly,my niece's kids were over.I just needed some peace and quiet for a while.So,I layed down for almost an hour and it was good.I also had a headache as well so I needed some peace and quiet to get rid of it.I felt better later after having dinner.I am in the house right now relaxing.I am just happy that the weekend is here.
The only disappointing thing to happen tonight was that the Buffalo Sabres lost tonight to the Columbus Blue Jackets by a score of 3-2.
Tomorrow night,I will be singing for my friends.I am hoping that the night goes good.Though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, January 25, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.It was yet another wonderful day for me.It was totally awesome.Today was another work day and the work day went by smoothly.I got a lot done with no trouble at all.I am simply paying more attention to my job and paying less attention to what is around me.I do pay attention to when my supervisor tells me something and that is all I pay attention.Again,the day went by well and that was rewarding in itself.Yes it was.
I also had to run an errand for my mother when I got home from work.After that was done,I stayed home and took it easy.It was yet another bitterly cold day today with blowing and drifting snow that seemed to never end as it got a little worse.Yes it did.I managed to make it home today even though it was storming a little.It takes a bit longer for my vehicle to warm up when it is really COLD outside.Then again,it's the winter season and that is what's to be expected.We did have some nice warm weather for a while but the arctic blast that we got brought us back to reality.Again,it's winter.It is what the season is all about.
Tomorrow is yet another work day.After that,it will be the weekend and I will be doing my usual singing for the crowd on Saturday night.I am hoping that my work day goes well and that my night of singing goes well.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are back on the ice.They are playing the Columbus Blue Jackets in Columbus tomorrow night.I am hoping for a win.Though the Eastern Conference All Star's lost 12-9 to the Western Conference All Star's,I am glad that Daniel Brieire won the All Star Game's MVP award.That in itself is better than nothing.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, January 24, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in feeling really good.I had a wonderful night.I went to my group and it was yet another wonderful meeting.We talked for a little bit about what was going on with us and how our weeks were going so far.I shared my story and that was great.It is great and rewarding to have some men who are listening and actually caring about you at the same time.Yes it is.I am looking forward to next weeks meeting and talking with them again.Yes I am.I am going to continue going to these.It is truly amazing.
Today,I went to see my sexual abuse support counselor and that went well.I had a wonderful talk with her.We talked about the usual stuff,with part of it being about the harsh time that I spent with my father when I was younger.I have said it before and I will say it again.It is rewarding to find caring and wonderful people who are there to listen to you without being judgemental alongside ignoring you for no reason.Again,it was a wonderful day and night overall.Yes it was.
Tomorrow is yet another work day.I am hoping that the day goes well.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tuesday, January 23, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a pretty frustrating day today on the job.I,once again,had to pick up after those people at the rehab center where I pick up laundry every week.It was not a big mess but I had to back a lot of loose dirty laundry that was on the shelves in the laundry room there and it was frustrating because this took time off of my schedule and I was hoping to be right on time.But I wound up picking up after people who can actually pick up after themselves without having to be told what to do or shown how to do it.I hate it when that happens.I hope that the rest of the week goes by smoothly.The work day,despite a couple of minor mishaps,went by superbly.I did my job for the day and went home.I did have to run a couple of errands tonight and now,I am just relaxing while preparing for bed.
I finaly heard from a friend of mine that I have not heard from in a while.He is feeling better and we are still hoping to get together in the near future.I hope that it does indeed happen and we can finally patch up things between us.It will be great to do so.I have had some problems with him in the past and again,I am hoping that everything goes great.Yes I do.
Tomorrow is an appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor.Tomorrow night is another group meeting.I hope that both go well.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, January 22, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.It was a wonderful day and I got a lot done.I helped my mother out today.I even managed to get some personal stuff done myself.It was not easy due to the bitterly cold weather that we have been having but still,I got a lot done.It was a nice day despite the freezing temperatures.But I got a lot done and that gives me a good feeling.
Tomorrow is another work day.I hope that the work day goes by well.I am also hoping that the week goes by well enough as well.After the frustrating work day that I had on Friday,I am going to need a great week to get over that.Again,I am hoping that the work day and week goes by well.If it does,I will feel a bit better.
The Sabres are not playing until Friday.They will be playing the Columbus Bluejackets on Friday night.I hope that they can start off their first post all star break game with a win.It was very depressing that they lost to the Montreal Canadians in Montreal on Saturday night.Again,a win Friday night can make me forget about that disappointing loss.
Wednesday afternoon is when I will be meeting my sexual abuse support counselor.It is my first meeting with her since the new year began.I am hoping for a wonderful meeting with her.I have a lot to tell her.I hope that the meeting goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Sunday, January 21, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.I had a wonderful day.I ran an errand for my mother.I even checked up on a friend of mine and he's doing good.I even had a nice talk with a friend of mine from Jersey and he's doing good.Plus,I just sent an e-mail to my new friend in California.Everything is good.Yes it is.I am feeling good and that gives me a wonderful feeling.Yes it does.I feel great and that feeling is better than nothing.
Last night,I sang up a storm for my friends and I had a ball.It was a truly wonderful evening for me and it was wonderful that everybody enjoyed my song selections last night.I came home with a smile on my face and had a wonderful nights sleep.I had no bad dreams and that was wonderful.
The only disappointing thing was that the Buffalo Sabres lost 4-3 to the Montreal Canadians last night.They have the week off for the all star game before resuming play on the 26th against the Columbus Blue Jackets in Coulmbus.The best thing is that three of the Sabres are going to play in the all star game.They are Daniel Briere,Brian Campbell and Ryan Miller.They will be playing on the first team.It will be an interesting game.Lindy Ruff is also going to coach the team that Briere,Campbell and Miller will be playing.Again,it will be an interesting game.
That was my day and night.FJ

Saturday, January 20, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling really good.It is Saturday night and I am looking forward to singing up a storm tonight.I hope that the night goes by well.Again,though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.Still,I look forward to singing tonight and I am hoping that the night goes good.
Today,I got a lot done.I managed to get to the drug store to pick up my medication and I even took a friend to work today.It was a pretty good day.The weather was bitterly cold and it was a little bit icy and freezing.Despite this,I managed to get a lot accomplished.Again,I look forward to entertaining the crowd tonight and I hope that everything goes well tonight.I enjoy entertaining the crowds every Saturday night and it always makes me feel good when they feel good.Yes it does.
Right now,the Buffalo Sabres are playing.I am hoping that they can win tonight.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, January 19, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.It was a wonderful day.I worked a full day today and it worked out pretty good.The day did start out frustrating as I had to pick up an unholy mess in the laundry room over at the drug/alcohol rehab center that I had to pick up the laundry from.Fortunately for me,I had a couple of helpers helping me to pick it up.After that,I simply put the laundry in my vehicle and went to my work place to start my job.The day went by well.I did my work and the day went by pretty fast.I had a good day.It all worked out and everything turned out for the better.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres were victorious again.They beat the Vancouver Canucks tonight in a shootout by a score of 4-3.The Sabres travel to Montreal to play the Canadians.This will be the Sabres last game until the All-Star break is over with.I hope that they can win another one again.
I will also be singing tomorrow night.I am hoping that the night goes by well.Though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for everything to go well.You never know what might happen.Again,I also hope for another win by the Buffalo Sabres.
That was my day and night.FJ

Thursday, January 18, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.It was a very good day today.Though I had a disappointing work day where I only had half a day,I managed to keep myself busy with some stuff.My mother and I got some much needed grocery shopping done.I figured that since I had the afternoon of,why not use it to my advantage.I got a lot done today and that is wonderful.Yes it is.I had a great group night last night and today,I made a new friend who I met in an online Yahoo forum.It is a young lady who's from Hawaii and lives in California.I am communicating with her via e-mail and through other means.She is such a sweetie.I love her as a person.She is truly nice.I like her.We have a lot in common.She likes the same type of movies that I do.Yes she does.It is great to meet new people and make new friends.I am feeling good about that.Yes I am.
Tomorrow is another work day.It will be a full day this time.I will be glad about that.Yes I will.Next week,it will be back to normal as I will now be working full weeks,except when there is a holiday during the week.
Overall,a pretty good day.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, January 17, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling better.I had a wonderful group meeting tonight.It was awesome to let out some more steam.It was a great meeting.The weather might have been cold tonight but it did not dull the mood of teh men who were meeting.It was yet another wonderful meeting.I am looking forward to the next meeting.Yes I am.I always look forward to all the weekly meetings.I am hoping that the next meeting is just as great as the last.Yes I do.
Today,I got a rude awakening.I learned that I will only be working half a day tomorrow.I was a little peeved at this because I was planning to work a full week.I am going to lose a little bit of money and that is disappointing.But I am going to fill it up with something.My mom and I are going to do some grocery shopping.It's going to be cold over the next few days and we feel that it's necessary to do that.At least,I will have something to do.I will be keeping my nimble self busy.It will not be on the job.But it's better than nothing.I was angry that this is happening.But I was surprised that I did not lose my temper.I am normally not very good at keeping my cool.But I have been doing good in that area as of late.WOW!
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres defeated the Boston Bruins by a score of 6-3.The Sabres three game losing streak is over.It is totally sweet hearing that my #1 team is a winner.It is also sweeter that they are doing great.Their next game is a home game when the Vancouver Canucks come to town.I am hoping that the Buffalo Sabres can win another one.Two consecutive wins at home would be totally sweet.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tuesday, January 16, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.I am very disappointed with myself tonight.I am really feeling torn apart at the seems and I feel like I am unworthy of a lot of things.Earlier today,I wound up masturbating again.I felt bad about this.It is the same old pattern again.I was once again having those same old dreams about being surrounded by naked men and feeling powerless.I was trying to take a nap today after I had a hard day at work and I weakened.I feel so dirty right now.I want to overcome this terrible SSA that I am going through and it is really bringing me down when I failed today.I did ask God to forgive me for giving in but I still feel guilty.I know that I need to learn to forgive myself after asking from forgiveness from up above and even though I said to myself,albiet mentally,that I forgive you FJ as well,but I still feel miserable.I need all the help that I can get.I want to stop this stuff and I want to overcome SSA but I am having a hard time.I am going to have anothet talk with the Lord in Heaven again before I turn in for the night.I hope that I feel better afterwards.I am feeling depressed as well as angry with myself for falling short.I know that God does not expect me to be a "Superhero". He knows that I am imperfect and will fall short.Plus,I know that he is merciful and forgiving.I am still trusting in him to accomplish my goals but I am still feeling guilty.Again,I will have another talk with him tonight before I turn in for the night and I hope that I feel better after doing so.I still feel miserable.But again,after another talk with the Lord,I hope that I feel better.
Those are my thoughts and ramblings.I would appreciate a few prayers.Thanks.FJ

Monday, January 15, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling disappointed.Why?Because due to the weather we had today,which was a lot of freezing rain,I could not go to my appointment because I had a difficult time trying to get ice off of the driver and passenger side windows of my vehicle.I had no problem getting the ice off of my windshield but those windows were a pain.I tried everything but everything failed.So,I poured Prestone windshield de-icer fluid all over my windows to loosen the ice.It worked but not in time for my appointment.I had to cancel it today and I had it rescheduled for next month.I was hoping to terminate the counseling but I now have to wait another month.Oh well!Mother Nature really let ys have it today,didn't she?The only thing that I get accomplished today was that I had to go to the store to get a couple of things for the home.That is the only thing I did.
I actually fell back into the old thought patterns.I gave into temptation when I kept playing with my genitals.I was also having verbal daydreamed styled fantasies of my past sexual relations with other men.I was also talking to myself on top of it all.I had to say,in my brain,"STOP!THIS IS NOT YOU,BOY!YOU ARE NOT HOMOSEXUAL!YOU JUST HAVE THOSE DESIRES BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH THROUGHOUT YOUR LIFE!YOU'RE A HETEROSEXUAL/STRAIGHT GUY WITH A HOMOSEXUAL PROBLEM!"I had to say a little prayer for the lord to forgive me in this because it was wrong.After I done that,I felt better and I listened to some spiritual music to clear my head.I will be listening to it again before I go to sleep.I hope that I can sleep well.I did weaken last night a few hours after posting and I masturbated.I also asked the lord to forgive me for falling short.Plus,the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Boston Bruins in a shootout tonight by a score of 3-2.
We have a winter weather advisory in effect tonight until midnight.I hope that we do not get any more for tonight and a while.We escaped the full brunt of the storm system,but still,anything can happen.
That was my day and night.FJ

Sunday, January 14, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling a little bit better than yesterday.I had a ball last night entertaining the crowds doing my tribute to Elvis Presley.They all enjoyed it very much and even got some Thumbs Up from several young ladies who were Elvis Presley fans,which was wonderful.I also had a nice conversation with a friend of mine in New Jersey and that also was wonderful.It has been a very nice night.I am feeling better tonight and I am hoping that the week goes by good.I did receive some news from the National Weather Service that there is a Winter storm WARNING in effect from 1:00am Monday morning to 7:00pm Monday evening.I am hoping that we can escape the full brunt of the storm and only get a little bit.We are supposed to get FREEZING rain and that will cause roads to ice up and make travel difficult.But I am hoping that it will not be that bad.If it happens,It happens.If it don't,It don't.But again,there is nothing wrong with hoping.
The only problem that I am going to have is with my appointment tomorrow.It is downtown in the city that I am living in and if we get the worst of it,I am going to have a hard time getting to that appointment.But maybe,we might escape the worst.
Regarding my appointment tomorrow,it will be my last meeting with my anger management counselor and after tomorrow,I can terminate it.I will then go back to regular medication management.I am feling pretty good at the moment and that is a wonderful feeling.
That was my day and night last night.FJ

Saturday, January 13, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.Today was a day for me to get some errands done.I had to go pick up a couple of things at the store for the home.I also picked up a few things for myself and even had a light,but late,lunch.I even managed to check up on a couple of friends and see how they were doing.They were doing okay and that gave me a litle bit of happiness.It is reassuring to find that certain people are okay.I actually missed them last week when I went out to entertain hoping to see them but they never showed up.I learned why.It is because one of their relatives was sick.I was disappointed but felt relieved that they wre doing good and their relative was doing good as well.
I managed to get that one thing accomplished today.I did pick up a couple of get well cards for the people I was supposed to get together with yesterday and that made me feel good.I hope that they appreciate the cards.
The only disappointing thing is that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Tampa Bay Lightning tonight by a score of 3-2.
Tonight,I am going to do my usual entertaining the crowds tonight.I will be doing an Elvis Presley tribute because this is the week of Elvis' birthday.I hope that everything goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, January 12, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in with mixed emotions.I had a pretty decent day on the job.Nothing really negative happened at work today.I simply did my job and I went home.Nothing to really write home about.
The disappointing thing to happen today was that I was supposed to go over somebody's house for a get together but he and his wife were sick.They were both battling the common cold and were taking medication.They called while I was on a long distance call with a guy who I do business with.It was disappointing.But I am going to buy them a couple of get well cards tomorrow and I hope that they both are feeling better soon.It is a shame but they did not want me to catch what they had.Apparently,his wife got it first and he caught it from her.Again,I will be buying them each a get well card and hope that they are feeling better soon.
A DVD that I have been waiting on had finally arrived.I was on my way out to the bank to cash my paycheck and the UPS delivery guy handed it to me.I opened it and it was the DVD.It was an episode of the classic educational show Big Blue Marble.I watched it after I arrived home from the bank and it was wonderful.I will be ordering another one real soon.I am looking forward to getting a few more in the near future.
The weekend is finally here.I will be going out tomorrow night to entertain the crowd and I will be taking it easy on Sunday.Monday is a holiday.I have an appointment with my anger management counselor.It will also be my last meeting with him.After this,I can terminate it.I will go back to regular medication management after this.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, January 11, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It was a pretty good day today.It was a typical work day and that went fair.There was no laundry for me to pick up this morning,but I still had some laundry to do in the basement at work.I did it and I went home.On the way home,I picked up a little something and I dropped off a prescription.I went home and relaxed a bit.Tonight is pretty cold out tonight and I am hoping to sleep well tonight.
The only disappointing thing to happen tonight is that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 4-2.They will be playing again on Saturday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning,which will also be in Buffalo.I am hoping for a win.It will be great after that embarrassing loss to the Leafs.I know that the Sabres can not win every game but it is still disappointing when they lose.
Tomorrow is another work day and I am hoping that the day goes better than today.The weekend will be here and then I can take it easy for a couple of days.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, January 10, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling really good.Yes I am.I had my group tonight and it was totally awesome.We had yet another nice discussion within the group and that was neat.I am already starting to fit in with these guys.It's great to finally have some men finally listening to me rather than ignoring me.WOW!I am glad to have found out about this group.I am now looking forward to every meeting with them every week.Yes I am.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres won tonight.They defeated the Chicago Blackhawks by a score of 2-1.It's wonderful that my hockey team is finally doing great.Yes it is.They will be playing the Toronto Maple Leafs in Buffalo tomorrow night.I am hoping for another win.That would be totally sweet.Yes it would.
The first two days of the week went by pretty well.I had the day off on Monday.I just took it easy and ran a couple of errands.Yesterday,I went to work and even that went well.Nothing really negative to write about.It worked out pretty good.Today,the only thing I had to do was a laundry pick-up and that went by pretty easily.Nothing to pick up off the floor.It was all bagged for me,which was super.
That is my report of the past few days.FJ

Sunday, January 07, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a wonderful time entertaining the crowd last night.It was totally awesome.I had a ball entertaining the people and I had some talks with a guy who I have been trying to make amends with.Our time together was great.I loved it.I had a wonderful time hanging out with him and his wife.We were laughing,smiling and joking.I think that our reconciliation is going to work out fine.At least,that's how I am feeling at the moment.I am going to take this one day at a time and hope for the best.It actually took my mind off the tragedy that happened on Friday.I still feel sadness that it did happen and I hope that the poor guy's spirit find peace and contentment.It is a shame that it happened.I wish that he were still here right now.I have accepted the fact that he is gone.I will always miss him.Yes I will. The only really great thing to happen last night was that the Buffalo Sabres defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 4-3.
Tomorrow is a day off for me as it always is on Monday's.I go back to work Tuesday and I hope that it works out okay.Things have been so-so at work but I hope for better days.I managed to get a little bit of shopping for the home done today and I even managed to see if a friend of mine is okay,which he is.He and his girlfriend were supposed to come and habg out with me last night but somebody in his family got really badly sick last night and he chose to help them rather than go out.There's always next Saturday night.
That was my night last night and my day today.FJ

Saturday, January 06, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling a little bit better.I am not on edge as much as I was last night.But I am still being careful.I do not want to do anything that might ruin the evening for me.Though I am a bit calmer and not feeling as angry as yesterday,I still have to be careful.I do not want to do or even say anything that I might regret later.I am going to be careful on what I say and do.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres were victorious.They defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 4-3.Their next game will be against the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday night.I hope that they can make it two in a row.That would be sweet.Yes it would.
I am still feeling a little sadness over the tragedy that happened yesterday.It was truly a shocking thing to happen.I am always going to miss him.It's sad.Even though death is a part of life,it should not happen too soon.The person I knew that died was 33.
I hope that tonight goes well.I am going to meeting a couple of friends tonight where I am goingto be singing.Again,I hope that the night goes well.
I did get a lot done today.I had to do some laundry and a little bit of personal shopping.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, January 05, 2007

Tonight,I check in once again with mixed emotions.I am feeling a little at edge at the moment and I am also feeling sadness and depression.Today,I received some distressing news over the television.A person that I have known for 10 years died early this morning in a house fire.Apparently,he fell asleep with a lit cigarette in his hand and he did not know what hit him.The first tragedy of the year for me involving somebody I knew.Him and I were not the best of friends but we did talk about a lot of things whenever we ran into each other.Now he's gone.The news really hit me like a ton of bricks when I heard about it this evening on the TV news.It was shocking because I had just talked with him a month ago and he was in good spirits.Again,now he's gone.I am going to miss him.
Today was yet another work day and it went as well as it could.Tonight,the Sabres lost to the Penguins 4-2.They play tomorrow night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.I hope that they can win that game.
I hope that tomorrow will be a better day.Tomorrow is Saturday and I am hoping that the day goes good.I am also going to be singing tomorrow night and I hope that this also goes well.
Well that was my day.FJ

Thursday, January 04, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.I had a so-so work day.Nothing negative happened but I just felt depressed for no particular reason.The Sabres lost to the Ottawa Senators 6-3 last night in Ottawa and I actually misplaced a newspaper that I picked up during my lunch break.I looked all over the house for it but there was no trace of it.I went out to pick up another copy.Fortunately,it was a free newspaper.Right now,it is raining outside and there is really nothing around for me to do.I do not know what is wrong with me.I have never misplaced anything where I could not find it anymore.I am feeling depressed for no reason at the moment.I do not know what the problem is.I am hoping that I feel better in the next few days.Maybe when I go out Saturday night I will feel better and I am also hoping that tomorrow,which is a work day,goes well.If it does,hopefully I will feel better.I guess that I am still feeling down about what happened to me on Tuesday regarding my tire.Every time something bad happens to me,I have an anxiety about the rest of the week and I always hope that nothing bad happens during the week.Again,I hope that I am feeling better soon.
Those are my thoughts and feelings.FJ

Wednesday, January 03, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling really good.I had a wonderful meeting tonight with my group at the church and that really made the night.I told the men about what had hapend to me yesterday and it was great to share this woth them.It made me feel better to talk about it with them.It was wonderful.The men in the group are a really swell bunch.It is great that I found out about them.I have been going to every meeting and every meeting has been doing me a lot of good.I am going to continue going to those meetings.I have been getting an awful lot of them.Ever since I have been going,I have not been losing it lately.I mean,what happened yesterday made me angry but I did not lose my temper nor did I shout curses at the sky like I have done previously in the past.I guess going to that group has been helping me.Yes it has.I have not been at edge as much lately nor have I lost my temper as of late.I feel a great sense of accomplishment coming over me.WOW!It seems like only yesterday that I was a guy who always was at edge and was ready to explode when somebody said the wrong thing or when something happens that should not have happened.But I am still keeping on guard because I could fall short anytime when I least expect it.But still,I feel that I have accomplished something.
Tomorrow is yet another work day.I am hoping that all goes well tomorrow and the rest of the week.If nothing negative happens during the rest of the week,I will really feel good.Yes I will.

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.The day that I had started out promising but would take a turn for the worse later on.I did my job and the first half of the day went by very smoothly.The second half of the day not so smoothly.The afternoon started when I was moving my vehicle to another parking space and was surprised to see that my passenger side rear tire was flat.It appeared that it was slashed.That really made me angry.Tires are expensive nowadays.I had to pay over $70.00 for that tire,including maintenance.The new year started out positive with the Sabres winning and then this happens.The reason why I was angry was not just because this happened but there was no police patrolling the area.If there was enough police patrolling the area,this would not have happened.I remember back in the years before,there was adequate police patrols.Police were on the streets 24/7 and the crime rate where I lived was scarcely low.Now,there are hardly any police on the streets and the crime rate is so high that the elected officials are doing little if nothing to bring back the adequate police protection that we need to keep the rate low.This year,we need to elect a new mayor in my hometown so they can bring policemen back to the streets.Playing politics with law enforcement is not only wrong but it's unacceptable.We need to get politicians back who care about public safety and who will never take public safety for granted.It stinks.
I hope that tomorrow will be better.I have to do a pick up of laundry for the Wednesday afternoon person.I am hoping that tomorrow goes by smoother than today.
Well that was my day.FJ

HAPPY NEW YEAR,EVERYBODY!
Tonight,I am checking in feeling pretty good.Last night,the New Year's party was an awesome success.It was truly wonderful.I entertained the crowd and they were very appreciative.It was a truly awesome night.Yes it was.I did eat a lot of food but that is part of the holiday celebration.I am looking forward to the new year with a lot of optimism and enthusiasm.I am hoping that the new year goes great.My resolution is to continue working on my emotional problems,such as my problem with anger.I have been doing well,so far and that makes me feel good.Again,I hope that the new year gows well.
The Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.They defeated the New York Islanders by a score of 3-1.That was truly the event of the day.Yes it is.I am happy that the new year is starting off on a promising and positive note.A Buffalo Sabres win to start off the new year is something.Yes it is.
Tomorrow is another work day.The post office and other government agencies will be closed for a day of mourning for former vice president/president Gerald R.Ford.The mail delivery will resume on Wednesday.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight is New Year's Eve.In just under five hours,we will be ringing in another year.It will be 2007 very soon.I can hardly wait for the new year to start.In under five hours,it will begin.I will be doing my typical entertaining on New Year's.I will be celebrating with my friends and singing up a storm for them.I know that it will be a fun night.I always have fun singing on New Year's Eve and helping to ring in the new year with everyone.It is always a BLAST.Yes it is.
The Buffalo Sabres defeated the Atlanta Thrashers last night 4-1.It was truly a great game and a great way to ring in the new year with a big bang.With this win,Lindy Ruff is going to be coaching the All-Star team when the All-Star break comes.That is really AWESOME.I hope that Lindy Ruff does a great job in coaching that team.
I am looking forward to the new year and I am looking forward to the party tonight when I am going to be singing.It will be a fun night.Yes it will.
