some of things i've done since i've been unemployed:
- done a lot of laundry. utilized my clothes line to save $, now it's a necessity for now because i knocked something into the lint trap of my dryer and now i'm afraid to use it.
- put some photography stuff i don't use for sale on ebay/craigslist. i haven't had much luck with that yet.
- went to a beer festival (and a bar afterwards) in harrisonburg. i still believe that harrisonburg is a bizzaro blacksburg.
- shot and developed a few rolls of film. almost completely ruined one roll but got some really wonderful pictures of dundy from it.
- pretty much gotten my fill of stuff streaming instantly on netflix. glad to see adult swim finally got the first seasons of aqua teen & venture bros. on there so i don't have to dig out my dvds.
- repotted my "work plants."
- annoy my cousin during her work day on gchat. (excerpt below.)
me: i'm sitting on my porch feeling disturbed because there are bees all around me
Kelly: Is it that warm out?
me: and some honeybees are building a nest in my bamboo windchimes. i've lost that zen-like feeling they give me
yeah it's like 65
Kelly: SOB...it does say its 60ish
LMAO...kill em all
me: i'll have to creep in all ninja style after the sun goes down
Kelly: HAHA...can you kill them with spray?
me: or i could burn my windchimes
i don't give a shit
if i let them go the honey's just gonna start oozing out of them
Kelly: WOW...hit that dark period already today
What are your plans for today
me: eh, it's my nature.
well i was gonna start writing my resume
Kelly: YES...do that:)
me: i bought a camera and ate some arby's yesterday
now i gotta go find a battery for it and feel like i wasted $17 plus the cost of the battery when it doesn't work
Kelly: it doesnt work, or you dont know yet?
me: i dunno yet. some idiot left the batteries in it and they leaked a bit which is usually not a good sign. but i thought i'd give it a go anyway. i like taking apart shit and never putting it back together
i had a dream last night that i was still working for my old company but on a different construction project that was a lot like the one i was on and it was my last day at work. in the dream i couldn't remember the name of the company i worked for when asked by some of the other trades working there after i told them it's my last day. i remember feeling really stressed out because of that and also because i was given the task to plant a bunch of other "work plants" that were going to be in the new tenant's offices & outside (at my former job i was not a landscaper, btw.) when i had all this other work i had to do. sleep stress!
well, open office has been installed so i guess i better get started on that resume...
