Alpha male

I think every man is like a wolf. Pack animals have a pecking order and it is only logical that everyone wants to be at the top, however you may define that.

At some point in my life, I figured that I would never have any real accomplishments, and since I lived in a predatory environment (ghetto), my "top" was to become the person you'd prefer not mess with.

I grew up with every male figure in my life being honest to God bad asses. My grandfather, my father....even my mom and uncles were people you didn't cross.

I'm not a badass. At best, I'm a sheep in wolves' clothing. Hell, I write a blog.

the winter of discontent...2009

I did it yet again. Every Christmas I overspend and put myself in a hurting until March. I won't get a check for 6 weeks, or the first of February. I'll put myself on track with that check and my tax returns.

I need to do better, it's not just me now...
