Doin' my own thing
Well, summer is in full swing. I can't believe how fast its going. Right now I'm just workin some basketball camps and workin at Prosper (a marketing firm). Things are going pretty well.
So I've come to the conclusion that I seem to always just be "doin my thing". What I mean by that, is that I spend a lot of time doin what I do by myself. I really enjoy hanging out with and getting to know people, but I spend that vast majority of my day by myself, doin my own work, gettin done what I gotta get done, runnin my own errands, listening to my own music, etc.
I'm not sure how much I actually enjoy "doin my own thing" as much as I profess to. The truth is, I feel pretty lonely and would greatly appreciate some company. But at the same time, I do need time to myself on a regular basis.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Girls are the cause and solution to all of lifes problems. Dating just plain sucks. Its obviously has its upside, otherwise I wouldn't do it. There's nothing like it. Some how, some way, it is simultaneously the best and worst thing in the world.
I feel like I'm too picky, but at the same time don't. I really just want to be impressed by a girl. It surprisingly doesn't happen all that often. Is that too much to ask? I don't think so. I consider myself to be a very impressive young man. How could I expect anything less? I just think that it is important to be attracted to a girl both on a physical level and a personality level. And one without the other just isn't good enough. Then, when you actually find someone that fits that description, there is the whole thing of THEM needing to like YOU. That sucks more than anything else. Maybe I just need to do more to impress. I'm sure there are a lot of impressive girls that I don't recognize just how impressive they are and visa versa.
Well, enough about that. I could go on for years and truth be told, I don't think that anyone reads this anymore anyway, seeing how often I actually post on this thing. Haha.

Shoot, Gavin, I read your blog. I know what it is like to feel lonely. I live in an apartment by myself right now, and it drives me nuts not to have people around to talk to. Instead, I just read people's blogs in the middle of the night.
I enjoy that you compared Girls as the cause and solution to life's problems and Council Bluffs as the Cause and solutions to life's problems. Does that in turn make CB a girl. I vote that it does.
Not to worry your fans are still out there. The question is ...are you going to be able to pick up where Plaisted left off? We are hoping to see great things from you out on the basketball court.
Hmm that sounds like a modified Simpson's quote to me: "Beer. The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems." I think the interchange of "Girls" with "Beer" works appropriately here.
It's been a couple of months. How are things going???
I read your blog just now!
This is great info to know.
