finding something to do

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

march 14th: the soreness

the internet was back. im not sure how i feel knowing that the first thing i noticed in the morning was the connection icon on my desktop.

that was a nice start to the day. that was offset once i got up and all the gym pains had settled in. not great.

a bunch of something was going on around work today. that was unwanted to say the least. and it lasted all day. late in the day i was still barely even able to make it through the annual issue of superior carnage. things came to a close around 4ish

talking to brandon about movies and how hard it is to do things.

back at home i caught up on the shows id missed thanks to bts impeccable reliability. even modern family couldnt carry community and the big bang theory this week.

back to work with stokes. pulling together new songs is always nice. though i really need to take some time to come up with some bass lines. gotta start practicing/memorizing theory things too. 

march 13th 2014: once is never enough when it comes to the gay bar

in the morning i saw that the internet was still down. thinking about how long it took my internet to be fixed last year im not expecting a quick turnaround. 

i had to use my phone to look at my email. not a huge fan of that.. somewhere in there was an email from comic con saying that registration would be this weekend. well, isnt that just peachy... (yay for korny jokes). time to start weighing options..

there was some pretty intense fog out today. working out. hearing fuel. they have a new album so theyre fresh in my mind. i noticed that id been doing more weight than planned on bicep day. not a bad thing.

work. listening to music. savage garden. ace of base. electric six.

looking up options for free wifi and investigating service outages. seems that a lot of things are out...in a lot of places.

sending an email to sideshow about tracking military packages. those are some pretty helpful people, but i wanted to point out that they arent quite accurate sometimes.

an email came in about prime prices going up. itll be 100 per year now. given that i probably make at least an order a week, this is still fine.

id thought about going to see wilhelm scream at the waterfront. instead i hung out with stokes.

wrapping up around 9.

a little sore from things. spaghetti. drawn together. 

bed.

march 12th 2014: the spectrum analysis

i woke up to an email about my finish line order being cancelled. it seems they didnt like something about my card. i missed out on these shoes before, but they had come back in stock over the weekend. luckily i was able to get my order in...again...with paypal this time.

today i received a couple packages. the new st. vincent, the deluxe edition of the dark knight returns, a claptrap, and a harley quinn. interesting enough, and somewhat expectedly enough, the joker was missing from this line up. the tracking number for him had never worked so i figured something like this would happen. 

at work, jordan sent me an odd message out of nowhere. his wife is trying to setup her friend with some. most people would say this can end in a lot of ways. theyd be wrong. theres only one...and its not good.

after work i got home and saw that the internet was down. unfortunately this was going to take more that a reboot. i called bt and they needed my phone number to look up my account. since i dont have phone or a way to look it up online i was not going to be helped at all. apparently even if all you have is tv, you still need a phone line... eventually i found a bill lying around and it had all the info i needed. turns out theres a "problem" with the line and theyre going to get a technician on it.

that whole thing ate up more time than i wanted to. i had planned on going to gymnastics tonight, but wanted a bit of a nap first. i was able to pull that off and made it out to bury spectrum.

things went all right considering my lengthy break. i landed, not nailed, my first front tuck. back tucks were like a flash back to 2003... they got cleaned up eventually. and trampolines still get the best of me. but there were some cool people there and im thinking ill make it a weekly thing.

back in va, id asked chris to get with callwood about picking up my ratchet and clank for me. he sent me a skype message to let me know he came through. its nice to have friends sometimes. just enough and in the right places of course.

home.

still no internet.

 

march 11th 2014: 311

works pretty nice right now. most people are gone so its quiet. thats always a plus.

watching an episode of new girl over my lunch break. it was one of the better ones lately.

i got word from amazon of a new 311 album and i had my doubts on how good it could be. the reviews on amazon seem to be pretty positive. a number of them said that it was a reversion to the older transistor/blue album days. i didnt quite see that. however, i only listened to one song briefly.

hanging around after work... talking to grier about shows. music with ethan.

home

march 10th 2014: ive been wonged

i had today off and pretty much spent it doing nothing.

i took in a bunch of house of cards and caught up on some facebook stuff. being social is time consuming...

eventually i left to go to wong's for lunch, but they were closed. i ended up going with the other place which isnt bad, just not what i wanted.

back at home i finished house of cards and watched a bit of wrestling.
