Day 411 of 365 More. Damndest thing. Overslept. As best I can tell, it was something like 100 years. I woke up in a desolate future. The world I knew gone, I walked the land, against the wind. A world I did not know. A dark world where a man’s worth was judged by the…

Day 410 of 365 More. So, I have this pattern the last couple of years. Around February or March I start looking in the mirror and become disgusted with how out of shape I’ve become. Then I spend five or six months working out like mad to get in shape so that I look good…

Day 404 of 365 More. If a photographer posts in the middle of flickr and there is no one there to see it, has he really posted? I kind of feel like no. So we’re now past 24 hours of me being marked moderate on flickr and casual viewers not being able to see my…

Day 400 of 365 More. Wow… 400 days. I can’t believe I’ve been doing this for 400 days. Today was wooble’s daughter, Zoë’s first birthday. Steph and I went over there for a birthday bash of cake and beer. I wonder if I had beer at my first birthday party. Anyway, Zoë is a big…

Day 399 of 365 More. One week down, 32 years to go. Oh good god. Actually, it really wasn’t that bad. I’m just tired. Hopefully, I’ll get used to this soon and get back into the swing of things. In the meantime, I have the weekend to hopefully get over this cold and do my…

Day 395 of 365 More. So today I made the decision to accept an offer from what I was calling company #2. I was holding out a bit for company #1 to see what their offer was, but they still weren’t ready to make me one yet, and I like company #2 better anyway, so…

Day 391 of 365 More. So I had a second interview with company number one today. I guess it went ok. Supposedly they’ll be getting back to me by Monday. I need to call company number two tomorrow. So hopefully I can make a decision about things. I just hope I’m not getting ahead of…

Day 390 of 365 More. Let the cards fall where they may… Won my poker game this evening. It’s been a while since that’s happened. In fact not only did I win, I pretty much had a dominating chip lead the entire time. Maybe my luck is turning. I have a second interview with one…

Day 389 of 365 More. Actually had a pretty good job interview today. I’m pretty sure that I have a job there if I want it, which takes a lot of the pressure off for Thursday’s interview. Of course I’ve been wrong before, so I’m not out of the woods yet. But I do feel…

Day 388 of 365 More. I’ve been in a dreary mood today. I have no idea why. Honestly it was kind of a good day. Had a Labor Day BBQ with various friends from complete different social circles, which always makes for an interesting evening. Finally found out yesterday that I didn’t get the job…

Day 385 of 365 More. Happy birthday to me. Ok, yeah, I know it was almost a month ago. But on my birthday, my mother gave me a gift certificate to Best Buy. I wanted to wait to use it until there was something I really wanted. Today was that day. Earlier this week the…

Day 383 of 365 More. Gentlemen…we can rebuild him. Bigger! Stronger! Better in bed! I actually initially had this idea about a week ago when watching a commercial for the new Bionic Woman series that’s coming out this fall. Then when I talked about all of my lifelong injuries the other day I figured I…
