I had the weekend off and a hard, lonely holiday ahead of me. So since I was cleaning up my camping equipment anyway I decided to take it for a little spin across the state ( Read more... )

I just realized that not only have I not posted in ages, I actually haven't checked this Flist in so long I can't remember when. I miss daily LJ fixes and minor freak outs over outages. I sometimes even miss my internet addiction ( Read more... )

I really miss Livejournal. And a regular schedule of free time to waste on things I find fun and/or no exhausting ( Read more... )

I still blame Facebook. For some reason, the flood of people that don't seem to own a filter on the internet, with no discernable concept that the people they are spouting hatred and judgement at are their FRIENDS AND FAMILY, just rises higher and higher.

Seeing as the last article I sold was 2011 and made just about the same amount of money I'm thinking I'll go back to updating my resume and planning on a lot of depressing job interviews.

I am so tempted to friend a bunch of people on Facebook, most of whom have requested it at least once not knowing what they'd be getting themselves into, just to see how spectacularly I can piss people off. I know who they are, that's why I don't add them. You would think they know who I am, I don't exactly hide it. Why would they want to read my ( Read more... )

I would love to say I spent today in peaceful contemplation of letting go of last year and getting my house clear of negative feelings and regrets. I did take out the trash, so yay me ( Read more... )
