I just randomly hit the "post" button, but I didn't really contemplate what I was gonna write. Needless to say, Facebook has taken precedence, and I barely wanna sit down and write in here. Probably because in the back of my mind I still wanna write about all the mundane details of my life, and it just seems overwhelming. Also at this point, I feel I make this disclaimer every time I update, heh. Somehow it's been almost 3 months... whoa.
Anyway... I guess time has just been going by. Life it pretty routinized. I go to work and deal with being home during the week, I head out by Becki on the weekends. That's pretty much how things go. This past weekend was Lollapalooza, which is always a fun time although I think I'm getting too old for it. It just wears you out as the weekend goes along. I really want to look into the idea of getting a hotel downtown for next year, because I feel that would alleviate some of the annoyance. It's just a pain to be up and about all day, and then have to travel back somewhere. Don't get me wrong, it's still an awesome time, but I just feel the need to tweak my experience so that maybe I use my time better. I always end up eliminating bands as the day goes on, and I kinda regret that.
I also had my big Washington trip last month, which was a lot of fun. Becki's family was nice, and I got to check out tons of cool historical stuff. I'm totally down with things like that, so I enjoyed it. It was just nice to have a little trip, even if it was an active weekend. I really do wish I could just get a day to do nothing. Ever since the schedule change at work back in March, I knew I wouldn't get that chance this year. Maybe things can plan out better next year, but we'll see. We could always get screwed again. Sometimes a dude just wants a 3 day weekend. Is that so much to ask?
As always, plenty of pics and write-ups of the trip and concerts on MySpace and Facebook, so feel free to check that all out. My baseball results haven't been so hot this year. I've seen plenty of wins, but I've also walked away from the ballpark several times scratching my head wondering what happened. An article in the paper today compared this year for the Cubs to 2004, which is kinda sad but possibly true. So many expectations, and just an utter inability to follow through. Meh... I am getting excited for football season and fantasy football though... Woot!
I seriously need to refocus on moving out again out of absolute necessity. My parents might be getting rid of the house, and I don't think their next destination involves me in the plans. I just wish everything would have worked out when I searched a couple months ago. I guess I felt sorta defeated when a place I felt was perfect was taken out from under me. I just haven't wanted to look again, and it would only be me and Eric now. Financially it's not as an impressive option for me, but I might just have to do it. Man, a few more dollars would sure be nice to work with. Maybe I should think about jobs again. It's kinda taken a backburner the last six months due to lack of time and just the idea of looking for something different in this climate didn't make sense. But, I guess things are slowly turning around. Adam surely should buckle down on all that, but there's that defeatist attitude again. When you belong to my family, you dread any job search because it always lacks results.
Anyway... I think that's all I'll give you this time around. Maybe I'll remember to update more... hahahahaha.
