steak

You know what's tasty? Steak.
I had one last night.
You know how it was?
Tasty.

My morning was met with rime covered clouds, sprinkling me with bits of frozen water. Sounds like all of Texas is going to get some frozen precipitation. AND THEY SAY CLIMATE CHANGE ISNT REALLLL.

It's funny because I do think we should be attention to what we're doing to the planet. Very much so. But on the other hand, we pretty much know the climate has changed and drastically before; You know, before US.

The second part of this is, and perhaps the one that makes the most sense, do we really have legitimately accurate weather models to even know what the fuck all this data means? My case in point is the weather from the local news. Those dudes can't predict shit.

Throw in some tin foil hats and a bad scientist or two, and we have ourselves a controversy!

My coffee is getting cold, so I'm going to go put it on the spotted owl burner. ttyl

"expresso"

So I got something I really wanted for christmas, an "expresso" machine. My yuppie-dom is complete. As this seems to be the most popular way of pronouncing the word, I will now begin saying it like this as well.

New Years.
Do you have resolutions? I had some last year, and I think I did a good job on them.
1. Lose all negativity.
-well, shit.
2. Pursue Graduate School and a business that you love.
-check.
3. Pursue new love and new friends.
-check on the friends part.
4. Define your limits to others.
-I think I've become better at this, this was most applicable to the situation I was in at my last job where I was just being too complacent, and not voicing my concerns. So check.
5. Be a best friend, brother, uncle, son, person you can.
-I believe I've done better. I've tried to make sure I keep in touch, and spend more time on or with people I care about. I'm not sure I've made myself a better person, but yeah.
6. Do not wait for the perfect time and do no doubt yourself.
-Well my job change certainly wasn't the perfect time, though I probably still doubt myself more than I should. Semi-check

I may carry over a couple of these are they're pretty important in how I perceive myself as the person I should be. Overall, I think last year was a successful year. I grew a lot as a person and I'm happy with where things are now. I'm loving my job, and am looking forward to starting school again this next year. I'm spending a lot more time with family and friends. I pursued interests and passions. In addition to focusing more on my health, as I felt I had begun to neglect my person.

So, next year's resolution probably won't look too much different, but maybe good resolutions are goals where you strive for perfection knowing you may never be able to achieve it.

I still need to wrap my presents. Though I'm just generally not a fan of wrapping. It's really all kind of wasteful ya know?

So much to learn...

Man I have so much to learn. Working on this new project at work.
I'm effectively trying to implement WiMax on a USRP drivin' by GNUradio. By myself. :-(
I am of course learning a lot, but there is just so much to take in. These books I'm reading use WAY too many acronyms. It's like every other word...

Dear drivers

Stop looking at the accident on the other side of the road, and drive. You stupid fucking monkeys.

I guarantee everyone in the traffic jam north of 1604 on 35 this weekend was pissed that they were in traffic. But, then everyone that got up to the accident had their fucking necks craned. I know because I kept looking ahead, on the road.

So why didn't I look at the accident?
BECAUSE I KNOW HOW THE GOLDEN RULE WORKS.

jerks.

Shopping.

I just finished most of my Christmas shopping last night.
Still have a few things to pick up, but I know what they are.

I don't want to work today... :-/

Guy from work lent me one of the Warhammer 40k books. I've always been interested in the game, but have never taken the leap in getting units and rule books and such. It's a rich-man's game for sure. But, I suppose that's really no different than Magic, or D&D to an extent. I really think the biggest hangup is the lack of peers to play the games with. I'd love to get back into some games just to have the social group to hang with. I've not made a whole lot of friends in San Antonio yet. I hang out with a few people from work and some of their friends by association, but no one on my own... I need to work harder on that.

Going to College Station this weekend for my best friend's wedding party. Should be fun, looking forward to it.

4am

The past two nights something has woken me up in the morning. Mind you, not at the time I WANT to wake up in the morning; In fact, several hours before. "What is waking you up?", you ask. Well I wish I could tell you.

But, if I found out a person is making this noise that startles me awake, I'm going to stab them in the fucking ear.

Late

I woke up really late this morning, for no good reason. TAKE THAT "THE MAN"!

Sunday night I was very disappointed in Cartoon Network. I had my DVR setup to record Venture Bros, but since CN was running some holiday spots during every break shows were running late. Suffice to say, my recording of Venure Bros only included half of the actual show.

Dear Cartoon Network,

Please stick to your schedule. Dicks.

<3,

I haven't finished my Christmas shopping yet. I really need to, I always put it off. STOPSTOPSTOPSTOPSTOP.

Just another manic monday...

I woke up early and with a headache this morning. What an awesome way to start the week! Think I was just dehydrated, happens to me easily.

So I took a bath this morning.

I like to play a game in the tub while taking a bath. As the faucet continues to drip, I like to catch the drops with my big toe. The drops form in three places, and tend to drip at a very constant tempos. Though, each drop has a different one. I keep my foot as far below the faucet as possible, but above the water.

I haven't given this game a name.

Lazy McFatty Cheeks

For a while I was doing a good job running. I haven't hit the track in week now... and, AND I had chik-fil-a last night for dinner. Damn I love some chik-fil-a though...

I'm being lazy at work today too. Perhaps this is because it's nearing the end of the year. It gets cool outside, everything slows down.

I need to visit my apartment office, there should be two packages for me there. A motherboard, and 4 gas masks...

awesome.

Easy tiger...

I had a "case of the Mondays" yesterday. So I decided to pay someone to touch me... In a totally legal and masseuse kind of way. This is the second time I've even gone for a massage. Both times have been at the same place, that is apparently a training facility for "massage therapists".

This last time was, perhaps, not as good as the first. Given that the lady felt it necessary to find the knots in my shoulders and GRIND ON THEM LIKE A FUCKING MORTAR AND PESTLE.

You will ask, "Did you say anything? You know, tell her that it kinda hurts?" Of course I didn't.

"Why?", you ask. Because, I'm an idiot.

It's colder today. I heard on the news that there was snow in El Paso, and that the town collectively shat itself.
