Day 394 of 365 More. Steph and I barely saw each other this weekend. I dropped her off at her parents yesterday for her bike thing, and then I was gone to a wrestling show by the time she got home today I was already gone. So I left watching the season opener a little…

Day 393 of 365 More. Woke up crazy early this morning (well, ok, 8am, but its a fucking Saturday) to take Steph to her parents house so that she can do some kind of charity bike ride. Sixty miles over two days sounds insane until you realize that her father and sister are doing the…

Day 392 of 365 More. So today I started filling out preliminary paperwork to start at what I’ve been calling job #2. Next week. I guess you could say its a done deal. But its not. It’s like at 99% certainty, but if life kicking me in the ass repeatedly over the last 33+ years…

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 387 of 365 More. A friend of mine has an annual Labor Day party where he hires a karaoke DJ. The last couple of years its turned into a Karaoke competition. "Karaoke Idol" he calls it. I did some of my standards, Soul Man, Golddigger, You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling (duet with Steph) and…

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 384 of 365 More. I tried to do this shot back on day 251 of my first 365 days project. I couldn’t make it work out right then. Honestly it’s not totally how I envisioned it this time either. In any case, there’s an interesting thing about pinball. I can spend the whole day…

Day 382 of 365 More. Not my initial idea for today, but I just didn’t have the time to get done what I was planning. Saw a bobblehead doll on our bookshelf and decided it might be cute to make myself into one. Personal note to myself. Save early and often. Even when you’re just…

Day 381 of 365 More. So I had my job interview today. I think it went well. I’m going to try not to jinx it. After I got home I dealt with some bills and then decided to soak in my hot tub to soothe my joints which have been aching a lot lately. In…

Day 380 of 365 More. Spent the morning watching Ninja Warrior with Steph and then went to a BBQ at her sister’s house and played some Nintendo Wii. It was a nice way to spend a Sunday. Need to get up REALLY early in the morning tomorrow. I have a job interview at 7:30, so…

Now, lets find out who’s tough enough to become the next NINJA WARRIOR! I think I’ve been going it all wrong with this seeking…

Day 378 of 365 More. Look, I’m not in my studio. Impressive, huh? A friend of mine had a birthday celebration today and had lots of his friends over for dinner. Some people I hadn’t seen in years. Some people I’d never met before. But it was nice to sit around and discuss politics, games,…

Day 377 of 365 More. Mirror mirror on the wall Tell me mirror what is wrong? Can it be my De La Clothes Or is it just my De La Soul What I do ain’t make believe People say I sit and try But when it comes to being De La It’s just me myself…
