Tim: On the effects on not working and instead sitting at home watching too much TV and dreaming of the job that he thinks he may have in the bag. So, I've been battling off the 'ole depression bug for the past week or 2. I've had bouts of happiness,...
It was the most uneventful weekend ever this weekend. Friday was Kouri's, as per usual, and we got there at a bit after 7:00 and took a seat inside because all the outside tables were taken. We sat there, waiting to give our drink orders while being...
A few notes about today: 1. My boobs and my arms hurt because I've been working out. But I'm seeing results. 2. I'm bored an awful lot. 3. Getting back on a first-shift type schedule sucks. 4. I'm having a hard time not thinking about the possible job I...
I think I need LJ friends who post more often. It's a shame that I haven't added anyone to my LJ friends list for like 2 years. Maybe later today I'll just add every single person on LJ who I've met in real life. That seems like a good way to waste some...
Oy! So, the interview was good. It lasted 2 hours. It was a really good interview... not a lot of silences, and a good dialogue about not just work, but also hobbies and some joking around. We got along well. It was good. They said my "body of work" was...
So Pudik Graphics just called again, and moved my interview up from September 10th to tomorrow. The lady I spoke with asked if I could come in "Tomorrow. Or possibly the next day. As soon as possible." Is this good? Is this bad? Does this mean absolutely...
The weekend was pretty rad, yo. We kicked it out hardcore on Friday like a mother, partying it up with the brothers Polk, Brandon, Captain Jim, and Planet Schwa. I was broke as a joke, so Bryan J. played my sugar daddy, jumping in with some cash for me and...
A big shout out to my dawggy dawg rad_jose for treating me to dinner and drinks at Kouri's tonight, and not even expecting me to put out. Even though I totally would have.
So I don't forget: 2nd Interview at Pudik Graphics, September 10th, at 10:30 AM with David Smit and several others. Yeah, they just called, which is freaking awesome, awesome, awesome. David told me that I wouldn't hear about a 2nd interview until...
Thank heaven for piracy. AKA - Goodbye, TV. AKA - Hello, temporary financial freedom. So I was all bummed out because I can't ever afford to do anything anymore and after writing all my checks and paying all my bills yesterday, I realized I was going to...
I was supposed to go to Madison today with Mullens to help him "set up" a Verizon store up there. That basically means hanging signs and mounting shelves. I helped him with 2 of the stores in Peoria free of charge, but for this one it would be a paying...
So, Winnie has found a way outside of the yard. I don't know how she did it, but it's annoying. So now she's an inside dog until I figure out how she got out and how to stop it. I wrote a follow up letter today. The first of my entire life. Correct me if...

So, the freelance world for me has fizzled and died, and I find it increasingly more difficult to spend the time it takes to actually get the jobs. I'm really banking on this illustration position working out, so if it doesn't, I'll probably have to go...
The auction people picked up my fish today. So, my fish chair for chair-ity is o-fish-ally fin-ished. How's that for punny?
No Kouri's last night, but instead, one of the most fun nights I've had in a long time. For some reason. It's Fabish's week off between semesters, so he's been rarin' to go out after a long, long time of never being able to do anything. On Thursday he...
Last night was the 20th, which meant 20% off everything at Hooters. Me and Alan went and ate a lot of wings (a LOT of wings). Then we went to Hoops and met up with Angie, Brynn, Carissa, and some guy. I don't know his name, but he had stupid hair. Today,...
Long post time, so either brace yourselves or skip. Whichever. I just got back from my interview. It lasted more than an hour and a half, which is really encouraging. Another encouraging thing was that the guy I was interviewing with (the creative...
I sure do love Fridays at Kouri's, even when they happen on Sundays. Tonight it was me, Atomic, some kid I think was named Kevin, Polk, Rachel, Dana, Brandon, and Joshy T. It was good times, and super cheap for me because last week was so expensive. The...
So, I just got back from seeing Freddy vs. Jason and let me just say that it was the world's greatest movie ever made on the face of the whole entire earth (right after the Evil Dead movies). With the exception of a cheesy "Jason hates water, Freddy hates...
