failure
I ran out of money in Salt Lake. It was a gamble that didn't work. I had jobs I could have started this week, but I wouldn't have gotten a full paycheck till mid June. I am at a brother's house in Penna now, after 3 days on a return Greyhound bus. At least I can stay here rent free for a while. I have a job lined up through a friend here, nothing great, but I am going to keep a low profile, save up money. And, I do have a exgirlfriend in this area, now that I'm back in town, she told my brother to tell me she's still single, so its not all bad.
Hope everybody elses week went better! Later

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
It was not a failure Blue.
That word is a bit harsh.
Maybe it happened for some reason we just don't see yet.

Hang tough Baby!

Blue...an adventure to add to all your life experiences. That is what makes us the people we are! I could look back and name almost all of my journeys as failures...but I believe that they have added to the total of the person that I am today. And I believe that is what each journey you take does for you!

You will not ever have to ask yourself "what if", now you know. That is a good thing! Destiny has returned you to your brothers...I am sure it is to prepare for the next journey!

Mary

I hope everything works out for you there!

Ditto all the above comments too. I couldn't have said it better than anyone else, especially Mary's comments (geckomary).

thanks dudes, I just got the local bus schedules, I'll be in town for a while. I am going to a free music festival on Saturday with some old friends, and I have a job interview on Tues. Because of you guys, instead of moping, I am being pro-active!

You are doing something that most people never get a chance to experience! You just GO- and I think its fabulous!

Very cool that you have all these brothers around too! So is this brother married w/ kids also? How many do you have?

You had the courage to try something, and it "didn't work." But I think Thomas Edison said something like "I had to find 99 ways that the light bulb WOULDN'T work, before I could find the one way it WOULD!"

So you're just a little closer to finding what works for you!

Never use the word "failure"... say I had an "experience". Sometimes the things we consider the most painful in life are the one's that give us the best learning experience. You're doing fine!

thanks dudes, you guys are truly the Best in Midwest, East, South, and North! I have 4 brothers, only one has kids, the one in Virginia. We are spread out, don't see each other sometimes, but when need be we back each other up. In school, no bullies picked on any of us, he knew four other dudes would straighten things out!
Brothers:
-youngest, single, US Air Force Acadamey, Colorado, the REAL hardcore health nut of the family, can bench press in excess of his body weight, gung ho military, did not consider regular colleges
-next oldest, single, Penna, own house and landscaping business, volunteer firefighter, most "downhome" of the five (I better keep an eye on my Hank Jr and Charlie Daniels cds!)
-Middle brother, married, no kids, Chicago, good talker, sales jobs, Gulf War vet (I use his indestructible giant military duffle on cross country travels!)
-2nd oldest, DC area, techno geek,married, two daughters who love Uncle Nick (me)!
-me, the oldest, most nomadic, considered the most mellow and laid back by most friends and family observers
