it has been a very, very long time
there are absolutely too many things to write about over the last 3 months. quite honestly, november and december were pure utter hell. january is a blur, and now into february, as the clouds start disappearing and the sun slowly comes back out, things will be better. so with that, let me bulletpoint a bunch of developments/thoughts in my life.
- issues with the g/f. some self inflicted, some not. i could write about 20 pages of things that transpired here, but honestly there’s not point. it is what it is right now.
- money. money is always a pain. recession sucks, housing market sucks, stock market sucks. my parents live up here which is awesome though. my moms been great at helping me organize my property management crap and other financial ickyness.
- some talentless ass monkey broke into (ok the door was unlocked) and jacked all my shit so i have to replace it all. most importantly, they stole my pool cue which is just not cool. that did however lead to me buying a new cue which i’m very happy with.
- resolutions. you know this is the first year in, well the life of this blog i think that i didn’t post resolutions on the 1st. frankly bullet point 1 caused a lot of shit in my life and i refrained, but with that, i will go through my short list now.
- buy new camera and take more pictures! seriously need to do that more.
- buy video camera. i want to video blog. no, not cause i have something important to say, but i want to have some video of me for posterity.
- buy new sunglasses because of said stolen shit from car
- work out. yes, actually go to the gym. this one fails ever year but i feel the need to keep including it
- poker. goal is to bankroll myself into the WSOP. that said, its already feb and i haven’t made a trip to vegas yet. very behind schedule, but still something to shoot for.
- remodel house. there are a bunch of things i want to do, but too bad point 2 above makes that very very difficult.
- mortgages. i didn’t lump this with money above cause i think its absolutely stupid that i’m never late with my payments, and i make plenty of money, yet i can’t refi any of my places because of all the idiots that screwed up the housing market by buying crap they can’t afford, on loans they didn’t understand. i love how people like me that knew what they were doing, and played by the books get fucked while the rest of the world gets a bailout.
- jess moved out here from rhode island. that’s probably one of the best things that’s happen lately.
- things that have been fun in the last 3 months (in no particular order):
- 2 vegas trips! … given, there was more drama ensued than one cares to remember, it was still fun.
- leah and callies bday shindig at teatro – cool show
- seeing lenka with lindz, angela, and ryan at the triple door (best venue ever!)
- nye was a blast. pics are up somewhere i think.
- deck the hall ball. death cab + the killers = ftw! plus everyone drank a bottle of vodka in the car on an empty stomach. too funny.
- pink party. cause i wore pink
- bacon party. cause i made stuff to eat heh
- fire festival. ok this wasn’t all that exciting, but i got pictures of it so linking it ;)
- oh.. and whats up with 3D? superbowl 3d ads? chuck in 3d? my bloody valentine in 3d? pffft!
oh well that covers my ranting. someone drop me some email or something. or i guess the thing to do now is just to find me in facebook cause facebook can replace actual human interaction. peace.
