finding something to do

i dont have a lot going on. my time is mostly spent finding something to do...

february 17th 2014: (not) feeling this

i slept downstairs today. it was not great. kinda hurt my back and it was a bit warmer than i expected.

catching up on the trial of jean grey and watching the walking dead. i remember back when i got into it and was going hard with the netflix. looking at the episodes now, i cant see me doing that. its pretty much come down to me watching just because ive been watching.

having lunch and spilling some on the precious moes mat. while cleaning that up i get a call to play some music today. i didnt spring into action like i usually would and it was for the best. once i got to work we sat for a while before actually doing anything. and when we did start up, something was off and we couldnt get into it. even the walk over to get food didnt go well. first, i didnt have money (for food i didnt even want) and second, the place was closed. on top of that, i missed out on some borderlands.

not great.

finishing the night with wedding crashers.

 

february 16th 2014: fake ass nigga

waking up from a dream about running around with a few dogs. reading spider-man. listening to the bosstones.

grocery shopping. on the way back i saw two dogs just like the ones from my dream. im like madame web up in this bitch. the only difference was that i only saw two, but my dream had three. rethinking my dream i never actually saw three at once, so maybe i really only dreamt of two...

napping. i should review my diet because i shouldnt be so tired so often.

making burritos and watching tnt. thats interrupted by jed to play a little guitar. i walk over to meet him and we get to the office, but the power is out. we missed the warning email that went out friday...

we went over our options and the first one, acoustic at the galaxy club, worked for us. we had a whole room to ourselves which was pretty nice. i made some good progress on learning some of his songs. around nine we had to shut it down and move on

back at home and finishing my tnt. sarah made an announcement that 941 would be her last episode and will be anchoring the later edition of the show. the way it was brought up, it seemed that it was a last minute thing.

with all the disdain over how the show has been going since january i am curious to see what happens with it. i am sure there will be a drop in views, but what will happen to deal with that? mike's going to have the show format he wants, but if the bulk of the watchers dont want it...

over the day d'nac and i had been going back and forth about dc movies and wrestling. seems that he missed my off-roading fiasco after judgment day 2003. i should find/watch that sometime...

february 15th 2014: rough rider

earlier in the week i found out about a new chris jericho podcast, talk is jericho, and started my day with that. it was only the first edition so i cant say too much about it, but it was good so far. laid back, casual conversation. good stuff

between the gym and lunch, my bike chain fell off. my first thought was that id be walking for a while. things worked out, rather quickly, and i was off to get an expensive lunch at the dining facility.

i had gone through my downloaded shows to see if i was missing any and i was. watching an episode of new girl that i had missed from a few weeks back. it had prince in it who had just been in london over the last few days. if id seen the show maybe i wouldve looked him up and seen the dates. 

waking up from a nap and catching up on big bang theory. that show isnt so great right now. at least not compared to how i used to feel about it. 

dusting off the ps4 only to be destroyed in fifa. a sad moment... tomb raider was nice though. the redesign really shows.

more tnt and net surfing. vaios are going away soon and that kinda bothers me. but i do have a new pedal coming in. so thats nice.

i get the email about the kickstarter hack. it was a little quicker than other hack related emails as of late so good for them... it still sucks though.

ending the night with free energy

 

february 14th 2014: it's the same band...

it had been a while since i actually posted a blog so i took the morning to catch up on that. its so much more difficult to remember everything despite having my 'notes.' i had mystikal and jimmy eat world to make things go by a little better. id rather have been on my way somewhere for the 4-day weekend, but didn't know with enough time. i checked meetup for potential things and realized im not great at navigating that site...

i bought a few reel big fish albums, did my bi-monthly email cleanup, and went off to the gym. i went up all around on back/bicep day so that was a good feeling.

getting back home and catching up on tnt with a little fall out bird. and naturally that turned into a nap before getting back to more tnt and online toy shopping. narrowly being defeated by sideshow's po box rules on my way to ordering a joker statue. 

looking over bass pedals while i watch tom merritts tech show. i stumbled across a nice looking svoboda fretless acoustic in the process. while watching tom, he mentions a collectiondx patreon so i look into that for a while. he also brought up the free de la soul albums. justin and i both mistake them for other groups, bell biv devoe and pharcyde respectively. i also somewhat mistaked pharcyde for arrested development...

ethan interrupted my online buying and what not with a jam session so that was convenient. that ended up going from about 11 to 2.

ending the night with a brief call to jerrod. apparently my calls come from hollywood, south carolina. i didnt even know that was a thing

february 13th 2014: never answer the phone

as it turns out i was supposed to be in class at 7. who knew...

shockley: ...and where were you?

me: last thing i heard was 7:30

shockley: but i changed it to 7 and i asked if you heard that and you said, 'yeah'

me: oh. i didnt.

after work i hung around for a while talking to brandon about bands and festivals. that guy's all right.

somewhere in the im passed an important phone message from a guy i dont know about a guy i dont know and a number that i cannot call. a winning combination...moving on.

maushart started going on about reel big fish and new songs and i had to correct him on that. he's one of those guys that tends to speak as if he's spouting facts but rarely is. at least thats what i see when im around him. a thing i try to limit.

talking to brittenny about trips and work related things. that seemed to go on for a while, but it was productive. at least for her.

killing time on amazon. ghetto fabulous by mystikal dropped to a point that im fine with so i picked up that. looking at toys  and purchasing the power ranger figures. the tmnt stuff i wanted wasnt at a price that i cared for. "add to cart"

eating a hot pocket and listening to will hoge while i wait on the other bands members. ethan and i got some good work on his acoustic songs. jed seemed to make a lot of progress on his recording. its a lot of last minute stuff, so im curious to see if this battle thing will happen. im feeling like it wont.
