Funky Screens

Before I go, here are the two funky screenies I just downloaded in the past day and am currently swapping between. I'll try to link the sites below; though, I'm new to this "Hello" program I'm using to post these.

Screwy Day...

Tough day at work.

Well, it was stressful anyhow. One of those days where I try to fix something, and everything seems to fall apart in my hands. In the end I got things to work right, but it took way, way, way more time than it should have. I ended up finishing up about 2hrs past the end of my shift.

Though, I did make a 7-Eleven run afterwards, on my way home, which helped make things better.

Pepperoni, Chips, Slurpee and a Scratch Ticket.

Sugar, fat, and starch... MMMmmm... Stress food.

I did a lot of driving today, and I had a lot of time to think. I figured I should make a list of things I need to get done in my life. Yes, another one.

You see, when I can't get things off my mind, am inspired, or purely need to sleep, I like to make lists. I don't make them every day mind you, just every few weeks to a month. I've purchased numerous pads, and notebooks, purely to empty the contents of my head onto a page. Unfortunately, I've also filled the first few pages of the many sketchbooks I own with lists, which makes them even less desirable to draw/sketch in afterwards.

I also have issues with sketching, or doing art projects, but that is best saved for another blog session.

Enough of my rambling on, to "The List"!

Things I Need to Deal With in My Life

  • Exercise - Find a routine of sorts that fits me, and stick to it!
  • Food - I eat too much junk food, I need to eat healthy.
  • Fat - I need to lose a lot of it and gain some muscle. (See above!)
  • Organizing My Life - Schedule my life a bit better, too much wasted time.
  • Organizing My Home - Clean and organize the crap in my house (such a mess). Perhaps get rid of a lot of things. Slap together a routine that perhaps even I could follow.
  • Deal with Health Issues - Need the bumps on my head looked at (removed), need my eyes checked (small blurred scratch or something), need to harp on my dentist for that nightguard (nighttime teeth grinding), get a few teeth capped, visit a dermatologist for a few skin issues, maybe even visit a nutritionist?
  • Career - Figure out where the heck I'm going. The job I have pays ok for what I do, but is in no way fulfilling, and push me internally to do my best and progress. More schooling, perhaps something in Visual Art, or Design areas.
  • Unblock Myself - Creatively, and artistically I've been blocked for many years. I have a conte crayon drawing that has been sitting on my easel in my living room for two years. That being spawned out of stress and frustration.
I'll be sure to expand this list in the near future, or at the very least, make it a bit more specific in some areas.

Off to play a little RE:4 before I hit the sack.

I need a good bonk on the noggin...

Its 7am and I'm still awake.

These insomniatic habits are slowly killing me, day by day. I've gotta stop this crap.

Yesterday, I slept through the first third of my shift. Neither the phone or pager rang all day long. Easy day at work I guess, *sigh*.

Browsed the net, fiddled with my blog page a bit, and spent most of the time playing Resident Evil 4 on the Gamecube.

I wasted sooo much time...

Other than the wasting time part, I'm frankly amazed how good the game is. I'm not really used to playing "Shooter" games on a console, as I handle them much better on the PC with the good ol' keyboard and mouse. The only part I don't like, or rather I suck at, is the carnival style shooting gallery mini-game. I can't aim perfectly for crap with a controller.

*Stares blankly at the screen*... *blink* *blink*

Damnit, I don't feel tired enough to sleep...

Where Do I Start?

Guess this is where I put my obligatory "Why am I here?" post.

I'm going to try to use this place to put my thoughts in order, and as sort of a pushing off point. Pushing off my big ass that is.

I feel like I've had blinders on for many years, moving forward on a path of nothingness, always missing the upward path.

Anyhow I think that is good for now, I'll add more later.
