Weight Loss

So I've decided to focus on my weight loss for the next year. From what I've heard and read it's healthy to aim to loose 2 pounds per week. Well if that is so, that is 104 pounds per year. My goal is to get down to 200 pounds which my doctor doesn't believe is possible for my body structure but it's worth a shot any way. One of my co-workers gave me quite a bit of inspiration on Friday. I found out that a couple years ago she weight 350 lbs then started dieting, and working out. She is now very fit in my opinion. She still works out several times a week but her body looks very good. This inspired me quite a bit. I now just have to "keep my eye on the prize" and focus. I'm also trying to quit smoking at the same time. Both habits are hard to change but I know that if I keep my mind strong I will succede. Thanks for listening to my dull mind vomit for a few moments.

Oh brother

I've been thinking a lot about my brother lately. In previous entries I've talked about not being very close to my brother. This is something that I believe that I will regret for my life time. I wish that we had a closer relationship. I wish that whenever we are together. He wouldn't have that un-easy feeling around me. I wish he knew that he can talk to me and share with me what's going on in life. I wish that I could do the same with him. He knows I'm gay, but I have absolutely no clue what he thinks about me. I don't know if he hates me and just puts up with me. I don't know if he's ashamed of me. I don't know if he loves me the way I love him. As distant as the relationship is between my brother and I, I love him so much. I don't know if he will ever know how much. My brother is VERY religious, he's attending a bible school in Montgomery Alabama. This is part of the cause for not being sure of what he feels toward me. I fully support him going to bible school as long as this is his dream. He seems to be enjoying what he's doing which I'm very happy for. He's doing missionary work for the church which opens up so many new learning experiences to him. I'm even somewhat envious of the traveling he's been able to do. I'm proud of my brother and what he does. Okay, I'll stop sobbing like a 3 year old. Just wanted to get that off my chest. Love to you all...

Houston Auto Show

I forgot to let everyone know that I got to attend the Houston Auto Show last Thursday. I had a great time with my friends Ellery and Hugh. I don't get to spend a whole lot of time with them but I do enjoy the time I do get to spend! Damn, late for work.

I've uploaded some pictures from the show to flickr. Click here or click a photo from the photo display on the right ---->

Welcome to www.rustycooper.com!

Well I got bored the other morning and decided to register rustycooper.com. I figured it's a little easier to remember the spelling to rustycooper.com rather than dizfunkshinal. The site name shall stay the same however rustycooper.com, at least for the time being will point to dizfunkshinal.com.

TTFN!

Sept. 11th Conspiracy Video

If you have an hour to kill, check out this video. I'm usually not a big conspiracy theorist, but this video presents some pretty good information to gnaw on for a bit.

Another Birthday Complete

Well I have achieved another yearly milestone in my life. Let's make that two yearly mile stones. On January 27th I celebrated my 25th birthday. That's a quarter of a century old. I've done a little reflecting to see what I've accomplished in the past 25 years and I'm not all that impressed with it honestly. I will strive to make the next 25 years of my life much more meaningful and hopefully more interesting. There's dozens of things I want to accomplish in my lifetime and I haven't even scratched the surface. Some of these include becoming an private pilot and visiting New York City.

I mentioned that I was celebrating two milestones this time of the year. Well the other milestone is not so happy. On 02/02/2002 I attempted to commit suicide. I wrote a short note to my friends and family explaining my intentions and went up on the highest bridge in Corpus Christi and intended to expedite my existence. Whilst I was up there I thought about plenty of things like why it had come down to wanting to end my life and what I was accomplishing by ending my life. I decided that it wasn't the answer. I came down off the bridge and went home. That night....oh that night. My family, after hearing about my mental state, gathered at my apartment to visit with me, they all wanted to know why I was so depressed and what was going so wrong in my life that would cause me to want to end my life. I was then taken by police to a mental health facility for admitting. I refused care and told all involved that I was okay to leave the hospital that I would be fine. I was fine, I had a new outlook on life killing my self would have been the easy way out. I was ready for a fight, I was not giving up that easily. Life is no easy road and I was not going to puss out on it by quitting.

So while I was being taken away by police to the hospital, my family asked my roommates at the time (Adam and Rudy) what was going on in my life and why was I so depressed. Adam told my family, "He's gay, he has no one to love, and no one to love him back." You see, my family didn't know me. My family knew me as the computer nerd of the family. My family knew me as the chubby kid that didn't like sports like the rest of the family did. My family knew me as the not very religious one. But, my family didn't know me as the gay one. My family to this day doesn't "like" Adam. I will forever love Adam, with all my heart. Adam opened up a door to my family that I may not have ever been able to open myself. My family now knows me. They may not approve of the way that I live with because they believe that I've made "choices" in my life. Well this is me, Rusty Cooper, take me for what I am. I have no facade no mask I am me. My life my not be the most lucrative by any means but I have love in my life. Just take a look at some of my pictures. Tell me I don't have the best looking friends in the world! God has blessed me with some of the best friends in the world. Rudy, Adam, Marty, Mike, Courtney, Ellery thank you all for being such wonderful friends. I love you all so much.
