Decisions, Decisions

Usually once a week or so a wrench is thrown towards the cogs that is my life. Of course in most cases I am the one throwing the wrench as I've come up with a new idea, scheme, whatever you want to call it. The latest one is something near and dear to me, well, quickly getting there.

A friend of a friend who's quickly becoming a friend (like that? thought so) is looking like she's going to need a place to live and raise her daughter in a better enviorment. When I was looking at housing I offered to buy a bigger place so that this wonderful person could live there virtually rent free, so that her darling girl could be raised in a loving enviornment. The problem comes when you look into the future and see my plans for the next year. As the main force behind the house payment, losing my income would basically kill the housing, and having her move here only to move again in a year makes little sense.

However, I am working on a plan to help that plan go through...should it need to.


Damn I should've been an evil genious :)

More Desserts!

So I stepped on the scale this morning and I found out that I weight 12lbs lighter then I had been weighing in at. That is really shocking, I definately don't feel any thinner, and by my eyes, I don't look any thinner. And yes, I'm constantly looking at myself in the mirror, and not just when I'm squatting over one.

I'm not disappointed by this, I think I can definately use it to my advantage and put on some good pounds of muscle, but I do wish I would've lost some in my stomach, 6 packs are incredibly hard to attain.

Cause I Plan To Be A Cool Kitty

It feels like my head is spinning. The ideas, thoughts, and things that need to be done are bouncing off each other like excited electrons. Often times it's this excited feeling that helps a tired body through the day, all I know is that I need to make one of these stick. I've been tossing things against the wall for so long, I'd love to actually finish a project and get it running.

How do I balance when I'm afraid to choose? Do I persue this and neglect that? How can I run a tv show? Why can't I finish writing that book? Do I put all my projects in a raffle drum and let the spin and pick decide? Do I try to do them all and explode into a pile of hairy goop?

I think Charlie Brown said it best when he said "aaaarrrrrrrggggghhhhh"




PS: Like most of my titles, this is a line from a song, kudos to whomever (you know, both of you) gets it right.

Ciao

In meno poi un anno vado a Italia di studiare gli affari internazionali per un'estate. Non posso attendere di prendere lontano. Per prendere lontano da questo lavoro, prendere lontano da questa città, all'esperienza giusta un mondo che non ho mai saputo. Non posso attendere realmente.

Going Postal, it's not just for postmen anymore

"the computer is doing that thing it was doing the other day"

I wish that was a joke, but it's a direct quote. I thought of sarcastic comebacks "you mean: processing? showing the keys you push on screen? printing?"

Who am I kidding, I'm nice. "Just hit 0 then enter until you get to the main login screen and then re-login and you'll be fine."

"I already did that"

"I'll be right there" I hang up the intercom. I'm pissed, most likely it's visible. If he already did it, then the problem wouldn't be there. He either didn't do it, or closed the program and restarted it, like he's prone to do, which I've told him not to do many, many times. I get in his office and see the obvious, he didn't do what he said he had done. I repeat my instructions in person and walk out of the office.

How do you mis-type when you type 5 words per minute?!

When you wish upon a star

Not sure if I've used that title before, it sounds really familiar, but it could be because I'm always singing Disney show tunes.

California's Mega Millions is up to $225m, I could use that. I'd put it to really good use, I'm sure I would. :)

I often daydream about what I would do with money like that, it's those dreams that help pass the time at work. It's fun to think like that, but truthfully, that kind of money ($100m after taxes) would probably be an incredible life changing event. But it'd be fun!!

with a hint of Oregano

So I get into work today only to realize that they are doing work on our next door neighbor's roof, which means that the entire place (inside and out) smells like tar. I've been at work for 40 minutes, and I have a killer headache. Lovely.

I wish I was anywhere but here. x2.
