Times of the Unknown

RANT: In all my adult years, I have never seen the world so f^^d up as it is now.  Today (or rather yesterday), it has touched my life.  I didn't lose my job, but had this furlough thing happen.  Plus side, I get every other Monday off.  Minus I lose the salary I would of made on that day.  I love three day weekends, but not affording to have fun and to spend money freely really sucks.  This is my give and take.  I am contemplating my new Monday life... maybe I can turn this into a positive and go volunteer somewhere. I just need to think where it will be a good symbiotic relationship. We will see where this yr. takes us.  Hopefully, the end of the doomsdays are near, people need to go back to work and stop begging for money. 

Stuff...

FLIP

I own lots of Stuff, in fact, I purchased a flip yesterday. It is a mini video camera that takes short movies. It is about the size of a cell phone. It is pretty handy and maybe I will take it out and shoot numerous life moments of mainly my dog and daughter. We will see what happens. Like cameras, I need them to be in front of me in order to use them. Anyways, life has kind of been on hiatus.  I get depressed about the nature of our city, county, state and country.  It is this ugly trickle down effect. I just do my own thing everyday.  Somedays, I think to just get up and do what ever comes to mind which is frightening.  First class ticket to Paris please?

Rainy weekend

I love the sound of rain. I just don't like being in the rain. Hopefully, it will stop raining by the time I get up and do errands today. This weekend, nothing is happening. Last nt. I saw the Rocker on DVD and fell asleep to A GOOD YEAR with Russell Crowe. The Good Year DVD stopped about 45 min into the movie. This pissed me off so I fell asleep. Anyways, I may try again later by wiping the disc off with windex and then slipping it back in the player.

Out and About

So this week, i was out and about. On Thurs. Nite, I went and saw my long lost friend at the casba. It was a good experience, got to chat for a tiny bit about how we are doing, what we have been doing and just catching up in general. Great to see talent not go to waste. Lots of people were there, ran into a old french class mate and a couple of girls who were staying a the beach hostel even the Mayor. Travellers... to be young. Anyways, I am glad I went and realize I am too old to be staying up so late on a "school" night. On Sat. I went to a friend/neighbor/business associate's brithday party, All her friends were quite nice and I would totally hang with them again. Anyways, this week was 2 for 2, 2 nights of drinks, 2 nights with no vomit. Amazing. Note to self, Nightclubs/Bars are totally hilarious. I would never purposely hang out with one, but if thrown into the situation...take it with a grain of salt. Don't do it too often or you may end up broke. I know I spent $100 this week on these 2 places alone. Thats a lot of mac and cheese... Sunday, I went to lunch with Suzanne and her bf. The beach was warm and cozy..nice quick walk afterwards and then off to Ed's mom for dinner, where she got a new dog that I am not quite sure what to make of him. He's cute but still has some issues. Sounds like lots of people I know. It's February already!!! Obviously, spring is here already. It has been the 70's here in SD for the past week. Cheers..
