being that guy since 1982

Just found out that this site looked terrible in Internet Explorer. I fixed it, get Firefox.

Oh buddy dude mang. I am exhausted and three quarters. I just got done shooting some hoops with Tommy D. I haven’t played basketball in a very long time. I can’t remember the last time.  Tommy showed up in his cutoff shirt so I in turn put on my mesh cut off shirt and we headed out. We started off shooting around and missing every basket possible. Then after we shot around we played a game to 11. I started off scoring a basket and then made a 3 pointer. Then Tommy basically laid waste to me and scored all the way up to 10 and then I finally made another basket, giving me 4. He then finished me off. After that we were pretty well winded and got some water and shot around a bit. Then we played a game of PIG. I lost that pretty quick only coming up with a ‘P’ for him. We then decided to play another game of 11. Tommy immediately ran up the score to 10, but then I came back and got 4. Then he finished me off. We then had a 3 point contest that I started off winning, but Tommy came back and finally won. 6-5. Then we played a game of 7. We were both so extremely exhausted by this time that Tommy just shot from the 3 point line and kept sinking them. He won that game 7-0. What makes me feel good about all this? I elbowed the shit outta Tommy’s nose. OFF MY COURT SON

So here’s a little bit about how my morning went.

I woke up at 6:30am and immediately said fuck that and hit my snooze button on the alarm. 6:45 came around and I decided that it’s still not gonna happen, so I hit it again. 7am finally rolled around and I said, ok I better do this. I decided it’s not going to be a shower morning so I looked at myself in the mirror and said, Hey Jon I love it when you’re hair sticks up like a freak show. I watered it down and made it look less horrible. I washed my hands a bit and got some juice and a protein bar. I put my nerd outfit on and received a call from Ernest who was going to ride with me to the meeting. I told him previously that we need to meet up at the Lee’s Summit Best Buy at 7:20 am so that we can make it on time to the 8am meeting off Quivera.

NO ONE WANTS TO LISTEN TO JON! Anyway, he calls and tells me he’s lost and I have to tell him how to get to the Lee’s Summit Best Buy. So I arrive at the LS Best Buy at 7:20am. Ernest arrives at 7:25, and then I wait for another associate that was going to ride with us until 7:35 when he finally says traffic sucks and he’s just gonna ride out there himself. So I peel out of the worst parking lot ever created and get on the highway. The traffic sucks ass, but seeing as I used to drive this stretch everyday when I went to Rockhurst HS, I kinda remembered the ways and it wasn’t all bad. HOWEVER, we arrived at the meeting at 8:05 AM. 5 minutes late! If people would have just listened to me, we would have been on time. So as it always happens when people are late, we enter, there is no fucking chair anywhere close to where people are sitting around a table and everyone stares at you. So Ernest and I take a seat in the back and then the other guy who was gonna ride with us finally shows up another 5 minutes later.

Anyway, the meeting carried on. The district manager was talking at this time. He’s a pretty cool guy. He definitely knows how to pump up a group and make them feel like they are worth a damn and can actually make a difference. He even does it in a way that you think you might actually be doing it for yourself and not to help make a company millions of dollars. Anyway, I was told to listen closely to his speech on what makes a good leader. He states to be a good leader, you have to have energy, be energetic, have edge (more like be decisive), and be able to execute. I feel as though I have all these qualities, that’s probably why I rock so much at what I do. Hmm.. We shall see about this SSM nonsense.

After he left, it went into the routine everybody talks about what everybody can do better piece and the meeting completed. So Ernest and I go check out the store that we were at since he has never seen it before. He pretty much gets blown away by anything, so he was happy. We leave around 12:20pm and I fly home. We then went to go check out the Lee’s Summit store since he has not seen it before. While there, I talked to a lot of my old Lee’s Summit friends. I do miss all those people. Anyway, then we left.

I came home and here I am. It’s just a day in the life of Jon Mossie. Tommy D is coming over now and we are going to go shoot some hoops. Don’t you worry there will be an update describing how I slaughtered him later.

Alright, I leave you with this:

18

And I updated my about me section.

As history shows, there will probably not be many more posts so I might as well go nuts today and write a whole bunch.

Here’s what I did today:

• Woke up around 830-9am
• Watched Shawshank Redemption. It’s a good movie and I enjoy watching it.
• Talked to ole about scuba diving. He is just starting out with his g/f and I am already a certified diver. There is a lot of jealousy fuming off the mass population right now, I can feel it. I have not scuba dived since I last went to Belize. It has been a very long time and I miss it. Ole is going to get certified in the "open water" aka Beaver Lake (it’s around Arkansas – does anyone else say R Kansas when they are spelling it out in their head? Is it just me?) in mid June. I would really like to go with him, just so I can get in the water and practice some of the safety measures and make sure I still have everything down. Talking with him today, all the terminology came back rather quickly and it got me kinda excited. More than likely I will not be able to go because the man is constantly keeping me down and away from fun activities on weekends, but I will try. Oh, will I try.
• Worked out. Today was shoulders. Before each workout with the exception of my leg workouts, I do 20 mins of cardio. Usually it’s on the bike. I hate starting, but I feel amazazing when it’s over. Kinda like I’m about to fall over because my legs are about to buckle underneath me, but energy to do the rest of the workouts.
• Ate lunch with my g/f at Chipotle. I barely eat here anymore. Before I started eating better I would eat there about every single day when I was at work. Someone told me that there is like 50 billion calories in 1 burrito. When I go, I get as little as possible in there. I get rice, chicken, corn salsa, hot salsa, cheese and lettuce. Surely it’s not so bad when I get just that. Molly got hers with just rice, beans, salsa and cheese. That would probably make me hurl a bit. This dude likes his meat.
• Worked on jonmossie.com. I was sick of not having anything on my JMPFilms.com website anymore and decided that I wanted to start writing something again. Ole writes his bloggings and I thought, hey there’s times when I want a website that will never get visited by anyone except me and twill to know how I’m feeling as well. And here I am, telling it how I feel. And you Twill. And you.
• Ate a lean cuisine. So… These things are OK. They aren’t super filling, but that’s probably why they are lean cuisines. The taste is what you’d expect out of a boxed meal, but that works out for me because I’m not really a super picky eater.
• Blogged the shit out of this place. BLOG BLOG BLOG BLOG BLOG

Hey! Not too bad! A rather lengthy post! What usually happens when I make websites is I get frustrated half way through with the layout of a website that I just stop working on it and no content actually goes up. So today, even though the layout is not where I want it to be, I say fuck it and will continue to blog my life away. BLOGGERS UNITE!!!!

So I’ve been jacking with this shit for the past few hours while I have been listening to my headphone jams. I’ve played with about 120938120938 themes and I’ve tweaked this one enough to not make it horrible. The color scheme works for me.. for now. But I will be adding some sections shortly. If you have not figured it out yet, I’m trying to be exactly like my brother Nick. This is the only way I know how. All I want is your praise, ole.

Hey there fans,

You’ve wanted it since the beginning of time, and I have delivered it to you! Jon Mossie.com is here. You may ask yourself, “Jon why did you create another website?” I’m glad you asked me that because I want to give you my reasons:

1. I love wasting money
2. I need to give Twill something to read while he is at work
3. Ole blogs the shit outta the place and I wanna be like him
4. I decided that since my xanga days, I have not written much about my daily happenings other than the super cool surveys I do on myspace
5. JMPFilms.com is about the worst website URL ever. So I have eliminated it and will host everything through jonmossie.com
6. I plan on starting this website and neglecting it within 2-3 days

You are welcome world.
