Work, non-work work, speech work, and pimped out to the DNC work...work sucks

oh, and let's not forget. fuck taxes. Seriously, taxes are like being gang raped by the government. My tax money goest to the TSA. There is no fucking security in the transportation security administration. I swear to christ one day i will walk through an airport terminal buck naked just to avoid the hassles. no more taking off my shoes for security. I might lift up my balls, but that's about it.

work is keeping me busy. it's neat to have my hand in half a dozen things at the same time but it can be crazy to manage. trying to balance time properly is tough but a good lesson. I'm learning quite a bit. as part of it, i even managed to gain another semi-professional certification which is nice. but damn if i don't come home in the evening mentally tired.

physically, i'm definitely a night person. i can be exhausged during the day, but not matter how tired i am, 9 pm rolls around and the brain gets going again. usually on stuff like how much i hate TSA.

outside of work, the podcast writing is going relatively well. i'm kind of surprised how much of what i write is actually getting used. supposedly some of it will be pushed to book form which shoudl be interesting. it's a good way to keep my mind active and distracted from things.

i also picked up a new project which is sort of open ended. for the moment it consists of a few beta ideas and some demos but i'm going to try redesigning and updating the web presence for the hawaii democratic party. not that it's a sign of devotion to the party or anything, it's just a neat project. get them going with some new web site stuff, maybe a forum, a podcast if i can get a chearp, good mic, though given the content i've set up for PCH, they might not necessarily want to attach my name to this...heh. still it's an interesting project. so i've got a few weeks to setup a demo, show what options are available. should be fun.

also have a speech tournament again this weekend. third one in four weeks each fri. night and sat. so it's been keeping me busy, and sadly sober on the weekend. no friday afternoon bushmill's. oh well.

it's good to keep busy though. it's a distraction from the drugery.

Ryen has a thing at punahou tomorrow. second step in applying to the school, the give a little tour and show him around the campus. Renell is taking him. I kind of wonder if rick will be with them but at this point don't really care. it would be interesting though if the lady who did the interview with Ryen suddenly notices that hey, the guy looks like he aged a decade and a half in a couple of months.....WTF? except i don't think he has glasses so it would be hard to confuse us. funny thought though.

things feel, if not quite on track, at least, in development, i don't feel like i'm in limbo anymore. not that i necessarily feel like i have a purpose, more i feel like i have a project. a bunch of projects to keep me busy. and that's a good thing... hopefully... until i burn out and have a mental breakdown....or convert to moronism mormonism.
