The week ends, the week begins....

Its some 95 degrees outside and the Hogg is sitting inside, working a job that he doesnt like, but he is so broke that he has to struggle through it in order to get to the next step..... Which is still China, it would appear. Although I am getting a little concerned that all of the ducks are not in a row and that I should try to just get something here that I enjoy instead of going halfway around the world, but if it becomes a reality, then I am just going to have to go.
It's just that simple.
This job makes all of it so easy to make the decision to actually go. Seattle is just not where I want to be at this point in my life. It is great right now, with all of the nice weather and warm sun--but the fact of the matter is that there are not the kind of jobs that I want here and I dont see much change coming that is going to make a difference.
Sad to say, but I would eather live in China for a year and come out and see what my opportunities are going to be with everything. I get this feeling that everything will be okay if I can just get the right visas, get cleared with my physical. Everything seems to happen for a purpose-- and this job really seems to have happened so that I figure out sooner than later that this is not where I need to be-- I got bigger things to do.

Anyway, I have to go back to the man, who by the way, wanted me to take 13 minutes off my timecard because I needed to take a private call that was important. Ummm, yeah.....
More tonight.... Read more!

100 POSTS

On April 27th, I discovered blogging. Now, Aug 2, I write my 100th post. About 123 days later, I type my 100th entry into this journal and i feel quite content at what this has produced thus far. Not perfection by any means, but enough information for me to feel like I have attempted to keep somewhat up on journaling the online experiement.
I feel so rushed, rushed to go to work, to come home, to do chores, to sleep. Nothing seems to really get accomplished, just more chores to do--more places to run to in my slight time off....

To think that in some moments from now, in just a matter of weeks, I could be typing this blog from the other side of the walls of communism-- a type of government that I have always supported if only greed could be eliminated from the equation.

China will be the utmost experiment of living in a non ideal situation for the betterment of society. The need for travel far outweighs the need to continue in the capitalist community known as America.

Anyway, the Historian is playing at it is getting engaging--when this book gets good--its hard to pay attention to writing when such addictive prose is being whispered in your ear.

Hope your all well. Read more!
