Good Saturday morning to you!

This week, and last week have been very long weeks. As you might have noticed, I have not updated my journal since the 12th… That is because my business partners and I have been working on a huge project with an impossible deadline. I have only had an average of 4 hours of sleep a night for the past two-and-a-half weeks.

But, as is my style, we finished it. Maybe a couple of minutes late, 85 to be exact, but we basically reached our deadline. Now you might ask, “why should I care?” That is a legitimate question.

This project was and is very important to everyone, not just us. It is going to revolutionize the way the world will interact with the internet. It has been two years worth of work and dedication just to develop the technology and structure to the point where we could present it to the powers that be.

We set an internal deadline for tuesday the 20th to finish. We are now in the process of filming a short clip about the technology to help explain it easier to investors and partners. This will help us get the proper funding and support to put the networks in place and change the world. We are very excited about it.

I can’t tell you quite yet what it is, non-disclosures and such… but I am very excited.

Now on to other things.

I relax by doing art. Either by photography, image manipulation, or traditional painting-drawing stuff. I Also have a psychologist whom I go to, not because I am nuts and have issues, but because I like to stay clear and healthy mentally.

Now I have a friend in my life who is not mentally healthy. She does not want to be honest with herself and ends up directing all of her anger and frustration at people who did nothing wrong. I really feel bad for her. She does not love herself and because of that she cannot truly love anyone else.

I have to make a decision soon as to whether I can still be close to her as a friend, or if I need to put even more distance between us. I have become far away from her already, but some times you just have to say enough…

It feels very childish for me to have to go through these emotions, to decide to “dump” a friend. I have not parted ways with someone I cared about like this for a very long time. I like to think I choose good, quality friends. Oh well, I guess we’ll see.

Today, Feb. 24th, in 1917 - During World War I, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom is given the “Zimmermann Telegram,” in which Germany pledges to ensure the return of New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona to Mexico if that country declares war on the United States.
