re: If You Could Change One Decision You Made In Life

I'd change a lot of poor decisions

Trying to decide if I'd skip my 1st marriage or 2nd one...I'll get back to you on that.

No because doing so questions gods plan he has for you in your life. Everything that had happened, is happening and will happen is exactly as it should be

Wish I had kept playing music. Band directors from 5th grade through 10th grade had very high praise for me. 9th and 10th were at BRHS in the lower level Jazz Ensemble. Best high school music program in the state, at least at that time. Director told me I had the chops to be the best trombone player he'd ever had and I could earn schollies if I applied myself. Just always hated practicing and didn't appreciate the talent I had. Frustrated the shite out of him. When I finally quit I said I wanted to play something else, like drums. Never did pick anything else up though. Dumbass.



It's either that one or the fact that I am nearly 100% certain that I could've nailed this hot younger girl one night some years ago, but for whatever reason I didn't think it all the way through at the time. Was hanging out with another female friend that night after work when the opportunity basically presented itself. The thought even entered my mind I think but I was too dumb to tell my friend "Hey, I gotta leave now."

Honestly I was trying to figure out if I should try to hook up with my friend I was already hanging with too. Wound up with nothing. Often think about what could've been that night.

That coach didn't leave me in during the State Championship game.

We'd have won State.

I can throw a football over mountains.

I have a ton of Regrats

Moved to Guam in the 1990's instead of up North continent US.

Just one? No way. That's too difficult.

1) "I don't know what to major in, but my girlfriend is majoring in education, so I'll do that too."

2) "Honey, I know we just spent our savings on buying a house in the middle of an economic downturn, but I think we should spend half of the $8000 Obama gave us on a vacation."

3) "Yeah, the baby's due in two weeks. By the way, I'm putting in my notice of resignation. I'll be pursuing self-employment."

4) "I appreciate you offering me an internship as a technical writer at one of the nation's leading engineering firms, but I'm going to have to turn it down. I'm going to pursue a career in academia."

5) "Look at all these choices of doctoral programs I have. I can't believe I got into so many. I think I'll choose the one in the most expensive town with little idea of how to really pay for it."

And that's the summary of my 20s....
