An Old Friend Visits, and an Older Friend Returns to Collect His Due

A wonderful day has come and gone, I find it difficult to believe that when time is precious to us, we seem to pass it like an off colored brick in a wall. I use that metaphor to only bring a simple understanding that we should not focus on the future but the present, make the time we have "THE TIME I HAVE", and the journey's end worth every second of a bumpy road.


As you may have read before my good friend Chase Puckett came down to Orlando to visit and take a break from his students. Funny thing is he left his school of 2500 to visit Disney World which contains 60,000 screaming kids, too bad he isn't principal down here.
We ended up spending the day at Disney's Hollywood Studios, which was a great choice on my part. Notice that Puckett grew hair because he was so excited. No, really, that is his best Aerosmith impression after going on Rock n' Roller coaster. But about halfway down the street after going through 2 gut wrenching corkscrews and a dizzying loop, I realized that I had lost my wallet. Thank goodness that the g forces were strong enough to hold it in. The picture below is me with my more than weathered Velcro wallet, but I love it, and if you love something let it go.....ah you know the rest.


My mother heard that Puckett was in town and one of the first things she said to me once she knew that me and him were in the same area code was "don't ya'll go and get into any trouble now". Well mom I didn't go with him on this one so you should be proud of me. Funny thing...English teachers that can't read.


Here is a cool picture taken in Morocco. No not the real Morocco, but in this fake Epcot world of wonder we chopped carpet prices in half, hint the ninja like expression on my face. Aaron joined me on this little excursion through the many countries, and like true warriors, we wore headbands with Japanese symbols on them that probably say "fish shit" on them. We don't care, we Americans eat fish shit for breakfast..........ummm........nevermind that last comment, wiki just informed me that it is fish eggs, no wonder those people got swine flu when I was a chef.

But throughout all of the stories we shared with each other and all the catching up that was done, I realized that I miss home and the people I love the most. Hopefully you will enjoy all of the crazy pictures that we took while he visited. Maybe one day I'll post the videos of him screaming on The Tower of Terror.

Back to home, it's very strange to call it home because for years I begged for escape, now I'm missing it. Or am I missing the things that make it home. Family, a house, love, friends, and so much more make the place that I call home, "home", not the location. So I have a bit of a request since I am a lonely college student dreaming of home, I want all of my email subscriptions to send me an reply telling me why they call home, "home". Send pics, video and whatever you need to tell me, I would be honored to read them, and I'll even post and reply my favorite.


So send to (adrianrgraham@hotmail.com), Please guys I know a lot of you pressed the follow key on the right side of the page and it won't let you, I set it that way so the page won't look cluttered, I have let a few close friends join it though, but that in no way means your less important.


I have a video to post 2mrw, it is an oldie but goody, another funny moment to move the lonely sting of just words and pictures around. Also, I am going to begin to video blog a couple of times a week to make it more personal to you, since obviously my "VOICE" is important to some........Alli. I'm still flattered, if I weren't dark because of the Florida sun, my cheeks would be a rosy Santa color.


Still yet another update, a person that I figured was lost, suddenly got found. Intriguing chain of events these past couple of days have been. Wow I just sounded like Yoda!!! Anyhow, I will fill you in, but here are a few key words......Insane.........Answered Prayers......I Told You So.........


Don't worry you will understand soon enough. Also to my hotmail, please send videos in less then the allowing space, someone tried to send a big file and it took me forever to bring it up, 30 seconds or less please.

So now it is time to please some of the female fans. Now please note that I'm taken, but I do enjoy some of the emails I get. I have been asked "Do you talk as sexy as you write?", "Any shirtless pics?", "Would two girlfriends be too much?" and my favorite classic "Boxers or Briefs?"


Well I'm not going to answer any of those questions directly, but I will let my blog do my talking for me. here are some accidental pics I had in a folder of me and some friends going to play tennis. I have been working out and yes I am proud of it. And no I have no idea why a random scarf is around me, wait a sec yes I do, my roommate keeps it 61 degrees in the room!!!! So now you got your fix you pervs, go do something positive like lick magnets. Okay don't do that but definitely go tell your friends about the blog, and email me, reading makes a day here go by fast, scarf or not.

Your topless guy wishing it was okay with society for women to walk around like this.

P.S. - well when I say women, I really just mean the hot ones, sorry Rosie O' Donald
