Once a week my ass.

I’m terrible at this blogging shit. I’ve logged in so many times since my last post meaning to write shit and getting distracted or starting to write and then just deleting it.
Things in life are pretty backwards/upside down right now. Definitely not going according to plan or even how I pictured things would be 6 months ago.
Anyway, I am learning to knit now because I am the champion of doing meaningful things when it is way too late. Just so the women out there know, you make knitting look way easier than it is. That is all for this story I guess, I need to get my ass out the door and headed to work.

Failed String Theory

It’s been mad long since I have updated again. I should probably just stop renewing my domains since I don’t do shit with them anymore.

Anywho. Have you ever had that feeling where you wake up from a nightmare? Except you’re not actually awake, it is just another nightmare waiting for the fabric of reality to bleed away? Yeah, that is how my life feels right now.
After almost 2 whole years of unemployment and uncertainty I finally locked down a steady job, got caught up on most of my bills, and felt like things were starting to get better all around. No such luck though. My paypal account is still ~$800 in the negative due to getting scammed and I doubt that will get resolved, which majorly dampens my ability to make money on the side and makes it completely impossible to get paid for mobile apps I develop. Other than that basically everything else is coming apart at the seams as well. Seems that after a life full of disappointment and loneliness, the same is all I have to look forward to. Not even drinking or video games can dull the heartbreak anymore.
Well that’s me, I hope everyone else is having a better, more productive weekend.

Procrastination

It is my middle name or some shit. I guess last time I posted I Forgot to mention that my laptop had been sent home to acer for repairs, she came back all gussied up with a new hard drive and LCD cover and such. I miss my decals and stickers I had on the back but luckily I have spares although my spare large gunnars decal is black and not red like the other was, may have to use a smaller one this time.
Ended up staying in the same apartment for another year because everything else is too expensive and I like free electricity and hate moving. Got addicted to minecraft. Getting IPv6 addresses for all my websites cause dreamhost is the shit. Still waiting to hear back about a steady job and losing hope but what can ya do. So yeah, that’s been my life for the past month or so with the exception of some coding/projects and a whole lot of gaming.

I suck like no other at updating this shit still. Anywho Christmas time wasn’t all that grand. Got my self a new phone, this time an android one, bought myself a couple new games, Deadspace 2 being the latest. Waiting excitedly for a quilt my girlfriend is making me which pretty soon she can probably use as a birthday present. Other than that pretty much nothing is going on, trying to get some work to do so I can get some regular income coming in, and I have to move in a few months since the lease here is up. Yup, pretty boring stuff.

Oops

It’s been way long since I updated this and I can even remember 2 times that I logged in to post and didn’t, just updated plugins instead. I need to get a ghost writer for this thing or something.

It’s been mad long since I updated. Been procrastinating an epic lot.
Failed both New Years resolutions, posting pictures on dailybooth lasted a bit longer than the blog but not by much. Tried to do a NaBloPoMo in March and failed, so far I’ve only been able to stick through with the first one I’ve ever done which was in Nov 07 I believe. Anywho, life is pretty much the same as it was in the last post except I live back in Tempe now, have since April. Still unemployed and all that fun shit and pissed that the senate decided to tack unemployment on tax breaks for corporations. Presently I’m in the middle of working on stuff for the PodcampAZ website and trying to figure out what to do with some of my domains.
Lost my train of thought so yeah, thats it.

Saturday in the park.

Not really. I woke up hella early to go get my hairs cut before the lifeless aimlessly shambling creatures got a start on the day. Zombies or Senior Citizens? You decide. So yeah, I got my hair cut this is how it looks…
So yeah, that’s about it. Now I can return to listening to music and browsing the internets.

The draft the internet ate.

Xopher — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 23:45:18 +0000

I could swear I saved a draft yesterday afternoon to finish and publish in the evening yesterday. It is no where to be found so this post is for March 19th.
I did nothing but read all day… ALL DAY. Then I skyped it up a lot, I am really enjoying this week with no productivity. Not having a care in the world is actually making me think about things that I want to do next week when I get back to being productive. Lets hope that all goes according to plan.

Apparently my last two posts vanished into the ether. I could swear I posted one and drafted the other, but meh. Oh wells. March 18th post.

Been playing with the nook a lot, hacked it up so it now has a web browser and feed reader on it, I really enjoy that thing and it has gotten me back into reading for leisure instead of just reading to learn new shit.

FFFFFFUUUUUUUUU

Today gets to be another one of those two post days for catching up. I ended up falling alseep on skype lastnight, oops.
Anywho yesterday I bought a nook. I was on Amazon adding some books to my cart and was like “eff this” so I looked at the kindle, and then the nook. Since the nook allows more formats and I already have a rather large ebook collection it was a no-brainer. Happy with it so far, I have a feeling I’m going to be reading a lot more again now.
