Faceplams: It's a pretty intense one so far... Newbies vs. veterans. Six new comers are going up against six former contestants. I'm not telling you who they are or who's gone home yet. You'll just have to watch.Originally Posted by rhet

Chatted a bit with lady on a dating site, seems pretty cool. Not sure if it'll go anywhere but it was an unexpected bonus to an already pretty good day.

Pimped out my beautiful expensive road bike with crosstop brakes and clipless pedals, so now I can go faster and feel safer.

Damn! I get going pretty good on mine doubt anywhere near that.
Down, but not out.
Being punctual, as it helps me become more productive and responsible. I still need to work on this like several other aspects of my life though, and I can also say that it really is one of those things that makes me feel like a good person.

I love being on time or early for work and professional engagements..I feel so much much less stressed and it gives me time to prepare for the day and organise my thoughts.

^^^ I so agree. I used to work out at 5:30 in the morning and have more done at work before 10 am. I don't do that anymore and feel less focused with to do lists never getting completed.
BUT - I came here to note that I am cheered by the fact I am actually checking things off the list and it makes me feel like I'm getting things done. It's best when it's both personal and professional to-do's.
Oh, and I hit 1,000 post count. I need to get a life but I enjoy so many little things about this place I just can't put it down.
Down, but not out.
Getting some Burger King with an iced coffee after buying Hesitation Marks at Best Buy. Both locations were fortunately in Flushing, NY, which is close enough to Bayside. This will be the second best day to the actual NIN concert I'll be attending in Brooklyn. Heck, I'm going back to Burger King after the NIN concert too, since it's along the way home for me.
(I try not to eat and drink so much before attending concerts anyway.)

It is Friday - only 2 days from Breaking Bad. It is Friday - just that alone cheers me up.

I work weekends and no longer know this joy (I did for a little bit, it was great.)
But! Free burlesque show tonight or something.

We got rained out at work so we put in a shop shift doing some equipment repairs. I feel mechanically adept.

Haven't laughed as much as I did the last days for quite a while. Took part in a meeting of a city magazine that will get me on the guestlist for several concerts this year while I only have to write about half a page for each gig. The people were amazing and after we finished planning the next issue we got drunk as hell. Made some good connections and most important potential good friends. That's no good work environment for me, but kicks up my hobby of writing (about music) to professional level and keeps me active on that. Yay!
So that's what happened and I finally catched up who Grace Helbig is. So I'm having fun at home in front of my computer too. :P

My parents put our dog down today. I'm sad, for sure, but at the same time, I'm really glad he's not in pain anymore. Coincidentally, my siblings and I all just randomly decided to go home for a couple days at a time over the last week or so (All but one of us is living away from home), so everyone happened to get to see him one more time. That helps, because I feel like it'd be harder if we didn't get to see him one more time while we were all busy with our on-goings.
He's been in bad shape for a while, though. Fuse vertebrae in his back, on-setting paralysis, cataracts, deafness. He was even having trouble leaning his head down to drink or eat from his dishes, so we had to set them on top of a shoebox. We've had him for 14 years, so it was about his time. I miss the little guy, but at least he's not suffering anymore.

Bought a kick-ass pair of Dayton biker boots off a coworker for $150. New they're closer to $600, I think? Whatever, I don't even care, all I care about is a cheap pair of well made leather boots that are gonna last for fuckin' ever and drive the ladies wild! Now I need a motorcycle to go with them...

FUCK YEAH! @icklekitty just pushed my kickstarter over the finish line! I get to spend the winter months trolling the deserts and painting abandoned buildings.
That, and I'm also looking at getting my red card (fire training cert) so I can go out on the fire line and shoot.

My Bookkeeping class was just unexpectedly canceled for the whole week, which gives me a four-day weekend, and we were supposed to have a test this week. That, and on Friday I get to go to the mall with my mom and sister, and the new Legend of Korra season premiers that day.
Huzzah!

My life has been turning around lately. Work has been getting busier which is good since 75% of my income is commission. I recently auditioned for and got a gig as a live guitarist for a local band. That's been pretty fun. I've been attempting to get closer to my family...I've been out of touch for a while. But things are looking up. I feel good going into the fall.

We kicked the last two shifts right in the teeth. Started a job last night, came back tonight and fucked it in the stinkhole. BAM, well trundled, 7 hour shift, no lunch because it would have derailed the trundling, just Redbull. Made us feel good, and we needed that because there's been some crap shifts the last couple weeks. And the next three days might be rough.

There's an Indian cleaner at the place I'm doing freelance stuff for. He sings Indian songs all the time to keep him happy and sane while vacuuming the floors and collecting mugs and shit. When no one's looking I join him in the hallway and we cheerfully dance for a bit while I try to sing along to the best of my abilities (of course I don't speak a single word of his language).

Got a tip for a french dip I made last night, really makes me wonder when people say "its the best____ I've had in a while." I'm guessing its more that's just what he really wanted. Also asked a girl out I've been crushing in for a bit and didn't get laughed at.
