Hail and well met
Well as the title says I am bust, broke, nearly penniless. I just got paid and after making sure I have gas money for the next two weeks to get to and from work I have not much left. I have had to push off paying some bills and just got an email from Stand Up about my account being past due.
Yeah it sucks and I am feeling a little down on myself at the moment. I mean what good is it to be employed if you still are broke and unable to cover your bills.
Meh I really don't want to get into that here. I did it years ago and basically bored myself and everyone else to tears. Life sucks and that is that.
I could go on for hours and pages on my view of the world right now. Again it is pointless and futile.
Well the real suck news is that I will have to curtail most of my trips to Lansing. So you won't be seeing me for the next couple of weeks. I do plan on making it out to Supers on Sunday and I am going to squeak out getting to Transformers on Monday, after that I will be going to work and then sitting home.
Yup that is my life in a nutshell. Just like my father before me. Work, eat, sleep. Yes just live to work for someone else. As far as dreaming is concerned I am going to take a hint from my sleep and quit it. What is the point. In my experience they are good for is wasting a lot of time and effort to try and make them real only to have them ripped away and torn to shreds in front of you by bastards that don't deserve to breath let alone live.
Damn it I wasn't going to rant. Sorry but I am going to let it stand. Forgive me for wasting you time.
Whatever

Matt-Man flies high
Hail and well met
Wow things have been running past at break neck speed and I seem to be in like neutral or something. I know this move thing is driving me crazy on some levels cause no matter how hard I try I just don't seem to be getting ahead. Also I have some other brands in the fire but now the wood is running out. Stupid jobs and not giving hours. The more I try and get done the less gets accomplished. I don't even have 4 different campaigns this summer and I still seem to be lost, in a haze.
On the plus side I have more energy then usual and don't find my self getting tired as much other then the lack of sleep. That can be addressed though. I am feeling healthy and not having as bad a allergy season as I used to.
I do miss swimming though. I need to get over to the pool at least once this season.
OH just to let people know that are going to be around this weekend Terri is coming down either Saturday after work or Sunday in the morning. She is bringing Grizzly down so we will be limited in what we do but she did mention doing the pool ;) Yes I do have a sick mind. Anyway if anyone is around I don't know what is going on for sure but keep me in the loop so I can make adjustments to whatever we are doing.
So I went and saw Rise of the Silver Surfer. I liked it as a sequel and thought it was decent. No it was not a perfect depiction of the comic book...but how would that even be possible? I mean really if they were doing a literal depiction then it would have been the Mole Man and not Galactius in this film. Oh yeah that would have been worth seeing, like the most lame villain in the marvel universe even with his recent return in ...I don't know what the story line is but he is still lame. I for one am glad they did decide to tackle the Surfer and I believe they did a good job. And with the pop up at the end of the movie we can rest assured that he will make his return and possibly even of Galactius. I had a good time and like it so that is what matters.
I am looking forward to Transformers and the Golden Compass. I still want to track down Black Sheep and see it.
I also want to get the Supers Game off the Ground better and move the story forward. I do have to talk to you Ben and get you the information on the Freehold. Also I have to find out which ones of you may be considering joining or not. I know Archer is in but what about the rest? I know all of you don't have access to this blog but spread the word amongst those that don't and let me know. I will also post something on the boards.
Ok well I am done blogging right now. I will see everyone tomorrow if Fading Suns is going on otherwise I plan on getting wet...IN THE POOL YOU SICKOS!
May the Force be with you
Excelsior!!!

So Who is this Matt-Man anyway?
Hail and well met.
Have you ever had a moment when all the fragments of reality that you thought you understood jumped up and came together for a split second to give you a tremendous "STUPID IN THE HEAD!" (a blow across the back of the head by a loved one for doing something really detrimental or plain dumb) . Well that happened today. I have to say that for maybe the third or forth time I got pulled up by the short hairs.
Now I really don't feel ready to completely explain the circumstances around this event but I can express the meaning of this event. Yeah it sounds vague and cryptic but that is what makes it fun :)
A series of events today forced me to reevaluate my outlook on life and the way I am living it. Well there was a GIANT discrepancy between the two. I did something that made no sense. I take things in my life seriously and devote the time I need to them. But time and time again I find I come up short when deadlines come. I had one of those things happen today and I really didn't want this situation to pass me by because I failed to live up to my obligation. As I thought about it I came face to face with the truth that although I take these things seriously, I don't take my life seriously at all. I don't have much respect for my life or the time I have been given. I didn't put it together that I had to manage my time so I could do the things that needed to be done, do them right and not just focus all the time to get something trivial done right now. In the end no matter my intentions I fail to accomplish the things I have to set forth to get done. It also follows that at the end of the day I am unreliable even though I really did intend to get things done.
Well I have decided to respect my life a little more and as such do more to manage my time to accomplish those things that I have promised to do by the time I said I would do them. I will spend the time to prepare for those things that I am going to do.
I know that it is not going to be an easy road and it will up to me to do what is needed to be done.
I have to give thanks to the universe and the creator for giving me that little bit of clarity. Now I have to do all that I can to make the most of it.
I cannot wait for certain events to come to fruition so that I can share what is going on. Some may think I am crazy but trust me I am wide awake and my eyes are wide open. But anymore would give it away.
I thank all of you for being my family, friends and more. I love you Terri!
May the Force be with you

Matt-Man is Matt-Man- Except No Imitations
Hail and well met
Yup I have decided to re-commit myself to being the superhero that I am. No this doesn't mean that I am not feeling the feelings that I spoke of in my earlier post. What it means is how I am choosing to deal with those feelings.
I am thinking like a superhero! I am going to overcome them in a spectacular way that proves my wits and skills are a match for anything I face. That is what being a superhero is all about.
Lets face it, Super Heroes are not just a cape and powers. There are any number of heroes out there that don't even have super powers to speak of. What really separates Super Heroes from mundanes is how they think. When Spider-man realized he had powers he did what any normal thinking person would, how do I make money with these. Well we know that in the story he didn't stick with that game plan. Instead he decided to do something crazy and insane. He put on a costume and fought bad guys. Now someone out there is going to say that it is all a comic book and has not standing in everyday life...
BULLSHIT!
If you think that is true then ask yourself this. With no powers at all and only the limits of mundane science would you fight crime? Well everyday men and women get up and don their "costumes" and do just that. They are called Police officers. Hey what about running into a burning building to save someone? Yeah firemen.
What about going against the universal belief that something cannot be done. So ingrained in the world is this idea that every top person in that field denounces it as impossible and seeking to do it is grounds for commitment into a facility for the criminally insane.
Well that one has several different answers. The Wright brothers, Thomas Eddison, Alexander Graham Bell just to name a few. These people all did exactly the opposite of what the common consensus was. More importantly they succeeded!
You see this is why I believe in championing imagination and creativity. I don't know how but I am going to make it and make it BIG.
Get ready out there cause I am putting on the Matt-Man costume and kicking some villainous evil stinky ass.
May the Force be with you
