Conversations With Myself: The Past......

The past. Something that is over. Done and buried. Yet sometimes the past can come back and haunt you. The past can be a series of memories that are happy that you'll always cherish, and sometimes the past can be an absolute nightmare. Reminding you of hurt and pain that you suffered. Stuff that you just want to forgot ever happened. If only the plot devices in movies like "Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind" were real. Sadly, you can't just have stuff wiped from your mind. You have to face the good and the bad that came from your past. Deal with things, become stronger, and hopefully a better person. Consider it a learning process. Usually, I do ok with this. That is until stuff begins to throw itself in your face, in the most painful ways. Reminding me of the pain put onto me by others in the past.

Pints and Ponders #1, 3/22/16: The End Is Near

Hop Grandslam, Courtesy Of Bell's Brewery

One of the many perks of my job (and there are many), is the ability to stop downtown to the pub after a long hard days work, and enjoy what's called a "shifty". Basically, what that means, is a free beer (any choice and any size) after the end of my shift. And I don't know if anyone reading this has been to Bell's beer garden, but it's beautiful! So here I sit outside alone in the sun, enjoying my brew, and I suddenly get the urge to write. Plus let's be honest... "Pints and Ponders"? Yeah, that was too clever to not use, so I'm going to just go with it!

Happy Birthday ChunksTM!

Today's blog post, is a special birthday shout out to one of my best friends, and a long time dedicated MvM fan, ChunksTM!

MvMTube

I wanted to touch on something that I very briefly mentioned in an earlier post. Posting videos on YouTube. For that to happen (and it will soon), I will be starting a brand new YouTube channel. So what videos will I be posting? Read on for more......

Itchy Face

Just a very short one today, but I'm really not sure about this Movember stuff. Not shaving for a whole month. I'm giving it a go, but one thing that doesn't help is that I can't grow a beard. I have spots in my face that do not grow hair, due to acne damage from highschool 20 years ago. So we shall see what this fuzzy beast looks like at the end of the month. I'm just doing chin and mustache. Or as my best friend Jason said, I'm doing it Joe Dirt style lol! Only 9 days in, 21 to go, and itching like crazy...... this is going to be a hairy month. Yes, pun intended lol!

As Always, Game On!

The Lucky Birthday

November 7th, 2015. A very very special day for myself, and my family. It was my dads 60th birthday, and definitely a day to be celebrated! Not only was this a milestone, but also a birthday some of us thought we would never see......

Friends

For today's post, I just wanted to write a quick bit to expand upon the end of yesterday's post a little bit more. Friends. The ones that mean the most, and the ones who are more than just friends...... They're family. This post will be a small collection of my random thoughts and feelings......

The 7 Day Stretch

Sorry I got behind a few days on my posts. So I thought I'd just do a 7 day wrap up to catch up lol! Time to cover kids, a birthday, car problems, gaming exploits, and friends. Let's get started with today's post!

Under Construction

A lot of things have happened to me in my life, both awesome and not so awesome, in the last 53 days since my last post. I probably should've posted more lol. But I'm here to let you know what's coming......

The Journey Begins

While it may seem like a bit much to chart, my special birthday happens in the year 2020. Just 5 years away, or starting from today (6/25/15)......1,925 days to be exact. And what makes that 2020 birthday so special? Why I turn 42 of course. ;)

I'm Back!

I have many idea's for a blog post. So many things I want to say. So many things I want to talk about. It's been a few years since I really sat down and took writing blog posts seriously, and I felt now was the time to finally get back into the swing of things. However, before I start posting everything I want to talk about, I feel it right to introduce myself to those who aren't old school and long term fans (you know who ya'll are lol), and are new to the world of MvM.

My name is Robert, but from here on out, call me MvM. It has been my Internet handle and name for 15 years now. I love all things geeky and nerdy, I am an amateur video and music producer, web designer, and registered comic strip artist. I love music, comic books and video games. I have a passion for life, fun, and everyone around me. And since this is sounding like the start of a damn dating profile, I will stop there lol.

Seriously though, I am glad to be back and have a more detailed web presence. The layout of the blog so far is a work in progress, and will become more colorful and better as time moves on. I will be writing about things that I love, matter to me, or just based on whatever mood I am in. And that's where you will all get to know me better. ;)

Thank you for stopping by, and please comment to the posts on my blog as well as subscribe to my blog. I would really appreciate it!

More to come very soon!

Game On!
