With wars in different time zones, political unrest, and ebola.
How's life?
How's your life?
Anything you guys want to change?
Frig, i'm coming up to a crises in my life and i'm starting to get bored.
I've traveled a lot the past 4 years, during my travels i've seen some crazy shiznit, that material items, homes, money, don't matter much to me (they matter, but it doesn't bring as much joy as it once did). Only my health and my family really matter, as well as awesome experiences.
So wtf should i do? I mean, life is good. But after a while of doing the same thing, what do you guys look forward to?
What do you guys look forward to these days?

Nothing too exciting for me, but life is good. My boys are growing up fast. I love seeing them grow up and learning new things.

Life is good, just now getting my hands around being in Corporate law, and feeling comfortable with the way the machine moves. There's a lot of differences from my previous career, most notably that everyone spends money like crazy, drinks too much, and tends to sleep with one-another on the regular.
On that note, my personal life is completely fucked, I think (note that I said "good" not "great" above). What started out as a rollercoaster of awesome has given way to a blur of women; none of which I particularly like, despite their appearances. I've "dated" 15 girls in the last 12 months alone. Most are lawyers, doctors, or waitresses at the pricey joints near our office (I know, I know… a walking cliché). Met a girl last week on a flight though, she's a flight attendant, so maybe this will be a different situation – I'm cautiously optimistic.
These days I look forward to simplicity – and so I'll take a bit of that boredom if you're selling, OP. Maybe I'll learn how to fly fish or something.
Yeah, I'll say I look forward to learning how to fly fish; that and a flight attendant might allow me to report back with "great".....at some point.

^crazy, sounds like shit straight out of Suits lol
Brother, in the last few years I've gathered some stories that would knock you back. I've toyed with the idea of an anonymous blog or something. Maybe an Out There "day in the life" thread would be a better call.
Hah, one of these days. You'll have to slap a *warning* on the thread though - this is CSI afterall.
Battle armour.
first thing I thought of. Good to hear, but sounds miserable as fuck. @realbenzo, when you went to manitoba/saksatoon/wherever it was out west, I could've sworn you were in a decent relationship...what happened to that? Or am I old and my memory is all fucked up? 
It's not miserable, I don't mean to mislead, far from that. Everyday is an adventure in some aspect or another (I've become accustomed to helicopters, front row seats, and of course the plus one's which go along). But, it's definitely not a deep or meaningful lifestyle - so that's what I'm looking for now.
Definitely did have a fiance at the beginning of this voyage. That didn't make it very far. Learned a hard lesson early: If a woman isn't in your corner, it doesn't matter what she looks like, the hassles will mount-up to the point of diminishing returns.

Allegedly.
As an aside, Flight Attendant came by the condo last night, made my favorite breakfast this morning while I suited-up for an early Closing. This thing might work out after all.....
