When people say it's all downhill when you hit 21... they weren't effing kidding.

Kids..your life is gonna suck the minute you either pass college or become an adult.

Here's my wonderful schedule:

1) Wake up at 5:30am.  Hit snooze.
2) Wake up at 6:00am.  Try to hit snooze.. but I somehow realize that I'll be late for work.
3) Take a shower and run off to my car.
4) Get stuck in traffic for 40 to 60 minutes.
5) Get to work at 7:30 or even later depending on traffic.
6) Come up with ingenious ways of quitting my work.
7) Deal with very arrogant co-workers.  I try to ignore them by listening to online radio.
8) Lunch time comes around 12:30pm.  I usually spend this time smoking 6-10 ciggies.
9) I go back in and work. Find stuff to do.  Twiddle my fingers..
10) Work comes to an end at around 5pm.  I get back in my car.
11) I sit in traffic for another hour.
12) I get home and it's roughly 6pm or 6:30pm.
13) I scrounge something to eat.
14) I smoke a cig or two.  While I'm doing this, I reminisce about where I fudged up.
15) By then it, it's 11pm. I know it's time for sleep.
16) I close my eyes and drift into nothingness.
17) I wake up at 5:30am.  Hit snooze.


This wonderful cycle will hardly change.  There will be times where you'll be inundated with family errands or obligations.  Sometimes you'll get wonderful surprises like, paying for your car registration or even car insurance.

I remember my mom telling me to enjoy my childhood.  I never understood that.  As a kid, all I wanted to do was grow up and become and adult.  I hated being a kid.

Looking back now... I miss it.  I miss it a lot.  


I hate it when my mom is right.

Do you have co-workers...

That always seem to need to say the last word in any situation?

Whether if it's in a meeting or a phone call.

That's one of my most biggest pet peeves.  I have co-workers who literally will talk or shout over the speaker just so they get their point across.   Every time I see that, I just want to throw some baseballs at their faces.  For chrissakes man!  There's effing etiquette behind having a conversation.


Also, another crap that is annoying is when people want you to pronounce their full name.  Let's say your name is.. oh I don't know, Maximilian.  We all know it's a long name. Not only that, it's annoying.  IF I had a name like Maximilian, I would hate to be called that.  I'd freaking shorten it.  Like.. oh I don't know.  MAX seems like a good short name.  IT still gets the point across.

I have a co-worker that will literally correct you that his name is Maximilian and will get royally pissed if you call him Max.  Isn't it usually the other way around?!

MLM's bother the bejesus out of me and also a big thank you to twsketchaday

So while I'm sitting there miserable at work wondering when it'll be all over.  I got a text message from an acquaintance. 

Just to give you a bio about the guy:
-I knew him in high school.
-We talked every now and then.
-He found me on Facebook.
-WE never chatted or hung out. If we did, it was usually in a group setting from mutual friends.

So anyways, he's been calling me like crazy.  One of his voicemails kinda started like this:

" Yo, Mr. Smith.  Long time no chat bro!  I haven't hung out with you in ages.  I've been doing good man.  I've been making a crapload of money.  Since we're so close, I wanted you to be a part of it as well.  This XXX (MLM company) has been taking care of me, bro.  I put down a 100 bucks and I've been making money like crazy bro. WE gotta hang out man.  The sooner you give me a call, the sooner you'll get hooked up man. BIG TIME BRO! I'll give you a call tomorrow night and see what's going on bro."

...

So.. uh yeah. That message drew out to be a three minute voicemail on my phone.  What a freaking cumquat...I hardly know this guy and he's called me like ten times in the past three days.  I plan on calling him and kindly letting him know to f*ck off.  We'll see how that goes.

And why the heck is he saying bro so much?!

In other news, I was honored to have twsketchaday draw me something pretty dope.

Check em out twsketchaday and give him some props!

Sorry. Sorry...

Oh boy.  Lots have happened.  Lots has changed.

Thanksgiving went by.  Christmas went by.  New Years went by as well.  

Found a job. (Yay, go me.)

But then... here's what follows:

1) I'm not happy with my job.  I don't see any room for growth within the company. 
2) My co-workers are very "cliquey" so it's hard to gauge or engage anything.
3) They watch me like a hawk. I swear they monitor when I go to the restroom or when I step outside for a cigarette break.

I know I shouldn't complain.  But.. it's just really awkward. I'm sociable by nature, but I've turned into a loner within the past month or so.

But, I won't ever make the mistake of quitting before finding another job.  3 months of.. just sitting there. Applying forjobs.  Going into stupid interviews.  Answering the same dumb old questions over and over.


In other news, I finally watched a TED show on David Blaine and how he held his breath for 17 minutes.  This guy is a freaking pimp.

Dear Jimmy Wales..

STOP ASKING FOR EFFING DONATIONS.

Every effing year, you ask for money.  A plea from Jimmy Wales.  A plea from Wikipedia.

BLAH BLAH BLAH.

I've donated in the past and honestly I did it because I felt bad.

But seriously, Jimmy.

You're not broke.


You have money. Do you really think "founders" only get chump change?  I'm sure you're hitting high 6 figures to low 7 figures.  Honestly, in a perfect world, if it's a not for profit corporation, it would be ideal to see how much you really made.  It would definitely make people look at things differently.  Seriously, I think you could do it out of your own pocket.  Be like Warren Buffet.

I'm looking at your overall spending and I'm just flabbergasted at the bs that I see here:

CLOSE TO $1 MILLION IN TRAVELING EXPENSES?!  Jesus Christ Jimmy and (staff/friends)... where the eff are you going?  Was there a meeting you absolutely had to go to in Zurich?  Was there some yummy benets that you just absolutely had to try in Louisiana?  Or was it the lame brain meeting you had to "attend" in Japan?  Trust me, Jimmy.  You don't need to learn Japanese... it's a dying country.

You probably live in a nice house valued at over $1 million dollars.

You've probably kissed a koala bear.

Probably shmoozed with some celebrities and ate some finger foods.

SO Jimmy.  Please forgive me if I don't.  And, your image is getting tarnished bro.  A plea??!  What the hell is wrong with you?

WE'RE FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING AND IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY, THEN EFFING LEAN YOUR STAFF AND COMPANY. I've noticed that you've done a lot with contracting,  why don't you hire some more contractors and cut off the staff.  Almost $9 million in salary?! You know effing well you could shave that be forty to fifty percent.

Jesus Jimmy.  You sound like a medicine man selling some snake oil..

There's a reason why white people don't live in Oakland...

Chaffed nipples.. yikes.

This is why I don't exercise.

I kid... I kid. I have been exercising and it's been extremely painful.

What else can I do if I can't pass the time...
