Hi Everyone,

Thought I'd take a minute to say "hello" to my myspace friends and give you a quick update on life in general.

Seem's like since November of last year, life has sorta beaten me up, but I'm still standing and doing my best to keep a positive outlook on life.

Alot of it might sound trivial to you, but for me, it's been anything but...it started with the San Antonio Marathon, where I stopped (for the 1st time ever in a race) @ 17 miles and just gave up.  That had never happened before and I've made myself a promise it will never happen again.

Then I got hit by a car while running in December.  I did more damage to the car than the car did to me, but it has kinda left me somewhat on edge when I'm running or for that matter, just crossing the street, since I walk so much wherever I am going.

I think the biggest trauma came in March (2009) when my Dad passed away after a brief illness.  I still don't think I've mourned the loss.  I keep finding myself welling up in tears, but I just can't seem to get myself to cry....I miss him very much and its left me thinking back upon the last several years and questioning just how good a son I was....or could or should have been.

My sister Terry has been very sick and hospitalized off and on the entire month of April, which has been mentally draining....especially coming off the death of my Dad...I suppose I can accept the death of my Dad, but I'm not willing to accept the grave illness of a sibling.  She is somewhat better, but it's still touch and go and every day it seems she is either better or worse.

Professionally, things are going very well.  I am keeping beyond busy running the Fitness Boot Camp for Dr. Peay and I'm also doing alot of One on One personal training these days too.  There was even a feature in a recent Dallas Voice suggesting I was one of "Dallas' Top Trainers", but I suspect it was only said because one of my Clients actually wrote the story.

I recently sold my Jeep and bought a new truck and I've moved too.  I'm in the same building, just moved to a different apartment, one in which I'm less than thrilled...big mistake, I think, but luckily I only signed a 7 month lease, so I don't expect I will be staying here after the lease is up.

Haven't dated anyone in almost 2 years and frankly, there is little hope on the Horizon that I will...the last "relationship" if you wanna call it that, left me with a very bitter taste in my mouth and I suppose, whenever I do meet anyone that shows interest in me, I look for every reason possible to drive that person away...though I find myself sometimes wishing I had a boyfriend, for the most part, I think I am better off alone and leading a life of quiet celebacy.  I've recently met someone that seems to like me and I think I like too, but when I look @ it from a rational standpoint, it would never work in the long-term, so I don't see the point in dragging it out any further...

As far as myspace goes....I rarely sign on anymore....actually the only reason I remain is because my friend Rhett won't join facebook.  If he joined facebook, I'd really have no reason to be here anymore.  No offense to any of you!

You can always find me here:

So that's about it....life goes on....

Til next time....

Billy
