Wow. I haven't updated in a long, long time. Guess i should give some insight as to how my life is going...
Doin' pretty good.
I've quit my job full of suck ass coworkers. In fact, Thursday is my last day there. I was kind of hoping it wouldn't come to it, because the money is really good. But i had a talk with the doctor about it, and he seemed unmoved by what i had to say, so i gave my two weeks. Fuck it, i've already had 3 job interviews in the last week, and i'll probably wind up being an assistant manager at an EB Games for $12 an hour. For awhile, anyway.....
Because my plans for the arcade are in the stage i figured they'd be right now...getting the prerequisites out of the way. e.g.- Raising my property value. Essentially, i'm redoing a lot on my house. In the past couple weeks, i've signed contracts to build a deck out back and enclose my screen porch, i've dug up all the shitty bushes out front and reseeded my entire front lawn (the sides will be done this weekend, and the back next weekend). Next week i'm getting estimates from fencing companies about putting up privacy fence, and tree companies to trim/remove old ass branches. After that, i power wash/paint up the outside, redo some gutters, and tear down my old shed. Then i apply for a home equity loan based on a reappraised value of my house (which is already twenty thousand more than what i paid for it). During the period of time when i'm doing the house work, i'll get together a good business plan and apply for some grants. Hopefully i can raise up at least $30,000, which will be a good start on a business.
At least, i hope so.
Things with Kelsey are going....better. There has been a drastic change in her lately that i am concerned about, because overnight drastic changes are never good signs. Underneath all of this, i think that the Ireland trip was a bad choice (tactically), and it will have some serious long lasting repercussions on our relationship. We've got some work to do, and a lot needs to change/be rebuilt this summer. I'm not 100% about a lot right now. That probably sounded a lot more doom and gloom than it is.
Yeah.
In other news, i've been observing/reading/taking note about how people i kinda know or used to kinda know are living their lives, and additionally, who they're interacting with and how they're doing that interacting. I just don't like a lot of people, i've decided. Actually, i think i just don't understand the decisions a lot of people make. "Out of Step" sounds just about right for me. Maybe i really do need to head to China to train as a monk.
Overall, things are on an upswing. Give me a few more weeks, and i'll be crusing right along.
