IM NOT DEAD!?!?
Well, as you can see by this post .. I am in fact still breathing and able to form more than one complete sentence in a written form. Guess I should give you people (like any of you will read this anyway) an update on my life.
1) Since my last actual update the apartment experiment has dissolved and I am now living with my father and stepmother. Well, maybe existing is a better term. Basically between sleeping and working, I have time for a shower and to check my email for the most part. On the days I do have off work, I try to spend them keeping myself as busy as possible so that life doesn't catch up to me and spoil shit by making me face reality.
2) Work ... hmm, well, at least they pay me well. Heh, the severe lack of breaks is starting to get old, as is mandatory overtime. But then again, that OT cash is nice so I can't really complain too much about that. But the breaks, come on. Something is wrong when the sun is setting when you roll into work and you don't get a lunch break, or any break for that matter until the sun is starting to peak back over the trees again in the morning. More than once in the last month or two, I have either gone without a break at all, or sat in my truck at 6:30am speed-chowing on a 6" club on white bread. Maybe the damn place will get off it's ass and hire a few more people, or maybe they will just worm to death. Who knows .. either way, a decent 5 minute break here and there would be suffice until you can get somebody to my line to releave me for my thirty minute lunch.
3) Vehicle ... woot, no more crappy beatyer for the Rob! As most of you that might see this already know, I have a new truck. 2003 Chevrolet S10 Extended Cab 4x4. Not too shabby really. It had 5300 miles on it when I got ahold of her, a little over 6k now. Some asshole cut me off a couple days ago, forcing me to take the curb at around 20mph. The impact resulted in a bruse-bubble on the passenger front tires sidewall and a slightly bent rim. For once I have a nice vehicle, that I'm not driving like a complete ass with. And the general public takes advantage of me and treats me like I don't belong on the road. Oh how I wish I had thrown down the cash for the optional Howitzer. As for the Charger, motor and tranny is out and soon to be stripped down to the bare block. April 27th of next year is the deadline for the car. My birthday or bust basically. If the car isn't ready by then, it will be sold to the highest bidder as is, no questions asked.
4) Social life is the same as ever, dead. No clubs, no parties, barely any hanging out with the boys, etc... Really, at the moment my life is work and sleep with a few daydreams in between to pass the time. Hell, I have a $25 gift card to the AMC theaters in my wallet that will probably expire before I even use the damn thing. No I don't like living like this, but I don't forsee it changing any. So I guess my choices are limited ... keep hating it and be a bitter asshole or learn to deal with it and just be bitter.
Thats the basic synapsis of my life over the last few months. Exciting shit huh? There has been more than what I posted obviously. The days where I felt on top of the world... the days where I felt like my icon held all the answers to life. Good and bad shit every day, but I doubt that any of you that are actually taking the time to read this would really care to hear it. Anywho, comments are welcome but I do reserve the right to edit them as i see fit. ;)
