Still living, jerkasses.
I've finally taken the vacation I always should have. It only took me three months of unemployment, a month in Japan, and an untold amount of brain cells MURDERED by hockey(and)booze. At Nationals in Florida two weeks ago we had numerous conversations about how we're becoming dumber by the drop. I'm okay with this, it feeds into doing stupid shots with stupid college students from Cincinati. Who are really good at hockey.
Job hunt continues apace, concusions do not. A real interview this coming Thursday. Hoo-ray! Anybody else pysched about this? I know I am. This dude, this dude needs a job. If for no other reason then to get Haji to shut it. And, for the first time ever, I have no job and everyone else I know does. Insanity!
I play WoW a lot now. It kinda eats my soul. I am sorry big sister! It turns out Finoran is an alt. But I working on it. Oh, I am working on it. You'll see.
And now Theresa, one of my bosses, is in town for dinner and letting me know what she wants for code. And yes, I STILL have several bosses even though I don't have a job. How do I do this? I do not know! But, it is my lot in life.
And no, I'm not selling it for a damn thing. Fuck you, vultures, trying to buy my property.
btw, the vacation was sitting in my room, listening to music, playing video games and writing code. I guess I am in the right field after all.

I believe I have a concussion. Thankfully, it isn't effecting me except for headaches and general fuzziness about the world. Which, since I forget about the headaches until I smack my head on something(often), and the world is generally fuzzy anyway, its pretty much normal over here.
Except for the new 'contours' on my forehead. Those could go away real fast.
How did I get this newest brain wound? Underwater hockey, of course. The best part? The dude who did it was using my stick when he shot the puck.
HILARITY.
Of course, I know the puck sails high of that stick, so I make it point to aim low. I guess dude knows now too. I am always a fan of education, no matter the cost. Hello advil, welcome to my pity-party.

The move was tiring and enjoyable; San Francisco was fun but exhausting and now I am getting ready to go back to Beverly so I can wake up early and help my cousin move tomorrow morning at 8 am. And just think, my biggest worry about being unemployed was staying busy. Amazing how you can fill your time when needed.
I imagine I'll have something more interesting to say on Monday. Brian is coming to town and there is a party for somebody this weekend. Well, two maybe. I have no idea. Life is crazy and I'm not writing anything down, so I am constantly surprised. Being surprised by life is fun, but tiring. I guess I should sleep more. Or spend less time getting rocked.
I still don't have a job, but the dudes in San Fran are awesome and they gave me stuff to do. We shall see what happens there.
And underwater hockey nationals is in two weeks. Eep! So much training to do. And ride finding. And housing finding. Guh. Stupid logistics, no wonder those dudes make billions of dollars, its hard stuff.
But I am in Chicago full time for two weeks, gimmie a ring if you live 'round here.
