Work was hell today. Lots of heavy lifting and hot, hot weather. It’s over though, so I am just relaxing, catching up on some tech news and slumming around the net. My Ex Boss stopped by the store today to pick up the last of his things. It was good seeing him. He looked relaxed, maybe a little sad, but that’s to be expected. I don’t really know how i feel about this new place I am in. I have been working in NPR for several months, and I’m fairly familiar with the place, but I always feel lost. Good thing I didn’t follow that whim to move to Seattle a few months ago, I don’t know what I would have done there. Just saw that a band from Tooth and Nail records is coming to my old church, being presented by Fire Escape. Yeah, I take a little pride in that. Like a child has grown up. Too bad organized religion and myself aren’t on speaking terms. I’m listening to Sage Francis’ “A Healthy Distrust” album tonight, listen along if you’d like.

Moved out to New Port Richey today. The net is hooked up, and its good to be back on the grid. There is going to be a lot more to do around here, but I’ll probably spend most of my time at the library and bookstores. I’m updating windows right now, and catching up on old episodes of Geek Brief TV, Systm, Diggnation, TRS, and others. Feels like I am visiting old friends.
Kinda sad though. Don’t really know what i am doing out here, or where my life will go. Everything happened kinda quick. Oh well, I guess if you can’t roll with the punches you need to get out of the ring, which is something that I can’t let myself do.
Here’s to a new day.

Moving out today. Going to get over to NPR, about 3 minutes away from work. Freaking awesome. No more one hour commutes. No more $55 in gas a week. I can walk if I want to.
just sucks that I have to pack everything back up.
My mom came in to my room crying and gave me a hug, she said that she would miss me.
I’m gonna miss her too.

I went to Brian’s house last night for his “get together.” Started off with some Sparks that I bought on the way there, moved on to more than a few glasses of Gin and juice, and somewhere along the way did a shot of the Captain. I drank a lot. All I can remember is taking off the devil’s mask that i was wearing and then waking up to my phone’s alarm clock at 7:30am. Sometime in between those moments I took a lot of pictures i don’t remember, I vomited on myself, texted Brian, and passed out in the bath room. After I woke up I left and drove home and went back to sleep. Even though i was sober in the morning, i have no recollection of the 30 min drive home, which is scary to say the least. Oh well, back to work tomorrow.

Just got off of work. Glad to find out that I misjudged my new boss. He’s a cool guy. Had to stay extra late tonight because we had to make sure that we hit our numbers. Maybe one day I’ll explain what that means. For now, accept that it means we couldn’t do our job right this week, our fault or otherwise. But, thats an hour ago, and this is now, and I’m going to go take a shower and get ready for a party tonight. Can’t wait to get some gin in me, make this whole week disappear. Until next time, remember, stay black, die black.
-doug out.
