twhat was on my mind

not a typo. just now i was tweeting things that were on my mind. wasn’t expecting to do a whole monologue. i felt it would be appropriate to make a blog post for it, so….here.

first: holy shit, 12 days passed since my last post already? jesus christ, where is the time going? maybe it has to do with my fucked up sleep schedule, i don’t know. i need to fix that somehow if i even want hope of getting a job.

and now, the twitmonologue.

i’m listening to a spin doctors album “turn it upside down”. for some reason, it makes me remember things from over 10 years ago. grade school. i hated those years. especially during school. in fact, i’ve mainly blocked out anything to do with school (other than shit i’ve actually learned). i remember more of the things at home, than anything else. even then, it was kinda “meh”. not saying i hated it there, too (though at the time, i probably did), it wasn’t terribly eventful.

what i do remember is playing myst, since it was one of the only good games that ran on my computer. there were also some good DOS games and Windows games. though, i couldn’t use the floppy drive. it was broken. the computer before it got infected by a virus.

another thing i remember from that time period was a dream i had in 1999. this touches somewhat on my spiritual side, which i’m not going to get into with this post. it centered around a “pink eevee”. i was in class at school doing a word search puzzle, where that was one of the words. then, we went on a field trip to go see this “pink eevee”. turned out it was a pink fox. or that’s how i remember it now, anyway. either way, it wasn’t an eevee, and it was pink and foxlike. there was also a flying creature that was a half-evolution of biyomon and birdramon – like, it was halfway through the evolution. and there was fire. that’s about all the relevant part of the dream.

now, i don’t know why this band in particular brings back memories. perhaps it was one of the few things i listened to back then – not having many CDs at my disposal or anything. other than that, i listened to Radio 104 (modern rock) or Kiss 95.7 (pop). though, i strayed from rock for a while, and i regret having done so. though, i’ll admit, Kiss 95.7 played some catchy tunes, and i probably would never had known about some of the good techno bands that i do today.

anyway, that should be all. i pretty much repeated everything i said on twitter, elaborated on it some. i need to catch myself next time.

blah humbug

so, the year is almost over. what have i accomplished? well, i got fired from my job, and moved to another state which i actually enjoy more than california.

i still have yet to find another job. and right now, a job would make an excellent christmas present. i’m currently living off of the money i make off of the GPT sites you see to the right. it’s not much, but is enough to get me some food to eat. hopefully soon, i will find work.

i’m not going to worry about making new years resolutions right now. it’s pretty obvious what they are. i need to find work, and maybe actually start school. slacking on my projects is another issue i need to fix, and i’m already starting on that now.

i’m out of here!

At some point in November, I will be moving to Indiana. This decision has been made because I have been unable to find any work for the past three months, and I am almost out of money. I don’t know which day in November I’ll be making this move. It will probably be on the 15th. The plan is to go on some sort of road trip with a friend. He will drop me off at my destination and head to his destination. Yes, I’m going by car.

Right now, I am preparing for the move – packing up my stuff, and figuring out what I can take with me in order to reduce shipping costs. I’ll have to figure out how much my friend’s car can hold. Once that’s done, I’ll need to think of how to deal with my furniture. Obviously, I can’t take it with me. It’s more of a timing issue -when I should dismantle it and possibly sell it or donate it to Goodwill (which is kinda funny, considering that’s where I bought my desk).

You might be wondering why I chose Indiana. Not only do I have a place to stay there, but I also have a possible job opportunity. I also feel that it will give me a chance to turn my life in a new direction. Once I’m financially stable again, I plan on starting school, and doing some of the other things I said I was going to do at the beginning of this year.

Things might have turned to crap over the past couple of months, but it’s given me something to look forward to….a fresh start in a new place. Let’s hope I don’t fuck it up this time. :D
