I'm really glad this week is almost over because I can't take much more of it. One shitty thing after another, nothing seems to go my way..
I woke up this morning nice and early, ready to go downtown and get some work done. I checked my account ballance online and it read -$300!! WTF!! I hade a $500 cell phone bill, not the usual...

I'm at my fucking wits end! That bastard who's website I've been working on for months now put a stop-payment on the check he sent me last week. I found out about it last night when I called him. He did it because of some stupid little detail I could have fixed in 5 minutes!!

When I'm there I always stay with one of my best friends who lives by Midway. I think the area is called Garfield Ridge or something. I loved the area because it was all Irish and Polish people and everyone embraced their heritage so much and being Irish I felt at home. There was always this strong sense of family even with friends. Everyone took care of each other without even trying to or giving it a second thought and I think that's the main reason I miss it.
Oh and all of the good food. Chicago restaurants are the best.

The highlights of my trip were:
El Gallo, this shitty looking little Mexican restaurant, but had the best chicken burritos ever.
Portillo's, solely for their chocolate cake shakes and cheese fries.
Falco's, for their pizza.
And the Pick Me Up Cafe for everything.

This week has certainly turned into a clusterfuck of epic proportions.. NYC was a waste of time, mostly because nothing really got done.. I am now absolutely certain that I will no longer be doing custom home theater!
I tried using the RF widgets for the pronto remote, no luck! Tried using IR repeaters and CFL friendly IR receivers, still no luck! So at this...

I've been smoking way too many cigarettes and drinking way too much coffee over the last few days.. This is due to the insane amount of stress I'm under. I've finaly decided to stop doing custom high end home theater systems as a result of this last couple months of absolute fucking nightmares! A friend of mine who is also a professional geek and owns...

I think your friend is on to something. maybe then you can just do audio//theatre systems on your own terms, and just every once in a while?
There's good news and there's bad news.. The good news is a good friend of mine is coming out here to visit me from LA. The bad news is that she's here for the funeral of a dear friend. Seems like everyone is going through hard times lately...

I found a client willing to buy the site for $10,000.00 if the other guy won't pay me by Tuesday! I know this sounds strange, but I've been screwed by a few web design clients before, so now I do...

I rescheduled with the client for Saturday, but he's a little pissed at me.. Oh fucking well, I just don't give a flying rats ass fuck! I'm...

You need some help my friend. Hire some bitches to do your dirty work.
Well, I've done it again.. I've managed to run yet another company into the ground! After looking at the $8,000.00 in accounts receivable and the amount of progress i need to make in order to collect final payment on 3 of these jobs, I see that I have a snowball's chance in hell of making it happen. I have a $3,600 credit card bill to...

Today got much better around 4:30 when I finished work and went down to South street to see if the pawn shop had any digital cameras in. I didn't get my camera, but I did leave with a new guitar! I figured I need to treat myself once in a while and the price was certainly right. So I hung around the Bean for a...
