• What do you want on your Tombstone…

  I’m not sure if you remember that commercial back in the mid-90′s but they were catchy… usually all comedy quickies, 30 seconds. But it would always end: What do you want on your Tombstone? Pepperoni and Mushrooms please…

  Reason I bring this up, my Mother talked with me one morning before I was going to work and she was going to work…. completely out of the blue:

  Mother: So I was thinking that I wanted; To live in the hears of those we love is never to die.
  Vx: Huh?!
  Mother: For my tombstone…
  Vx: um.. why?
  Mother: Well we went to a funeral home and decided to get them made, so what do you think?
  Vx: well, what else do you have?
  Mother: Forever in our Hearts; What we keep in memory is ours unchanged forever; Blessed are the pure in hear, for they shall see God…
  Vx: No on the last one too religious
  Mother: That’s not too religious… how about ‘The kiss of the sun for pardon, the ssong of the birds for mirth, One’s nearer God’s heart in a garden, than anywhere else on earth.’
  Vx: What are you quoting Shakespear? Let me write something then…

  So I came up with the following:

  Quote 1: Even though they are gone, they are always in our hearts.
  Quote 2: Even though they have left our side, they live on in our hears, always.

  Mother combined them for the following:

  No longer by our sides. Always, in our hearts OR
  No longer by our side. They will live on in our hearts, always

  She called me on my cell to tell me that she made these changes… I was charging  my cell phone and had to reach for it, I nearly went into a ditch…

  Vx: Hello?
  Mother; Hi it’s me… here I combined (see above) how does that sound?
  Vx: Um, good.. You realize that I almost went into a ditch getting my cell phone?
  Mother: Oh really? We’ll talk about this when I get home… loveyoutalktoyoulaterbye….
  Vx: love you too, bye…

  Glad to see that she cares

  Work, BWL, AutoCAD and class
  
  I’ve been actually doing a fair bit of work.. today was the busiest day that I’ve had in a very long time… Mainly because the Email Server was down because of corrupted Database, etc.. so I was answering phones today, setup a wireless connection, blarg blarg, honk honk later and got in some time at WoW (big surprise huh)…

  For the past few days, I’ve been designing a pair of tinted glasses that fold over someone’s normal glasses… which is cool I guess and I got it done, and it was a fun thing to do, but a pain in the ass lol… I mean I wasted good WoW playing time to do actual work … But you know what they say, if you don’t use it, it’ll rust.

  WoW was fun last week, ended up finally beating the first boss of BWL.  Now we beat him again, got my 2nd out of 8 pieces for my Netherwind… now onto Boss #2… 3min fight, unload everything you have on him and hope for the best….

  It’s been a week and I miss it…
  
  Class was a blast on Wednesday… I ran the warmup then a ton of breakfalls, throws and technical randori since our Sensei was on vacation. BigBen ran the class and it was fun, got thrown around alot, got in some fun ground fighting, but I miss the week to week class…So I push myself to do all the things that I can and learn as much as I can.

  Hopefully there will be a seminar in NS coming up that way I can see N again and have another kick ass time in NS. I might even bring a Camera.

  Not even sure if there are any movies on this weekend…

  Vx Out
