Music Soothes the Savage Beast.

Hello,  It’s 3am on Friday night, well Saturday morning.  Ever wonder why the beginning of the day happens when most people are sleeping?    Then a good 7 hours into the day is when most people wake up, but those same people upon awakening think to themselves, “what a lovely start to the day, I think I’ll have a banana.”   Not, “oh crap 7 hours of the day is already gone, I better get going.”   Strange.  But I digress.   It’s 3am and I am about to go sleep,  I got home at about 1:00am from a fireworks expedition to Cocoa with Matt.   I call it an expedition beacuse we had to break camp a few times before the mission was accomplished.    Julie was already sleeping when I got home, I assumed as much due to the fact that I called her phone at 12:20 to let her know that I got back from Cocoa, and will be driving home after smoking one last smoke in the driveway.   Anyway, I got home and brushed teeth and kissed my wife on her forehead whispered, “good night” and got comfy on my side of the bed.   Then I realized I was very hot, and steadily getting sweatier as time past.   So I got up and decided to cool off.   How was now my question.   I got the idea to lay on the brown couch, you know the one that’s right under the AC vent (freaking sweet),  and listen to some music with headphones and relax.   Which brings me to the point of this post.   Listen to music people, not while your otherwise occupied, not in the car,  just close your eyes and listen.   I had forgotten how great that is.   So, I am cooled off and relaxed now, Good Night.

Frugality Punished.

In an effort to reduce the cost of cleaning my house I have a few things I have been trying.     First of all, I realized the cleaning chemicals present in  many name brand cleansers are quite simple.  Bleach, ammonia, vinegar, salt, & olive oil can handle most cleaning jobs.   All of these are available cheaper than say, Windex.   Spray some vinegar on the glass and wipe it off with newspaper.   Better than Windex.   In relation to this post, the key word in the previous sentence is spray.    You still need to spray the damn vinegar on the glass.   I purchased a very impressive looking empty spray bottle from the Hom depot for the same price as a spray bottle full of Windex.    I justified the purchase by thinking to myself, “This bottle looks a lot tougher than the Windex bottle, it will work for a long time.”   I take it home, fill it up, and a couple of months later the impressive looking spray bottle wore out.   I would say no longer than the Windex bottle would have lasted.   Now, I know what you thinking, It’s a fluke, the big impressive bottle will last longer, I just got a dud.    I got news, it happened again, and again.   Rip off!   I have to retreat and find a better plan of attack.   Any ideas?

Career Paths

I have been thinking of becoming a massage therapist lately.   Decent money, and it will get & keep me in shape.  I enjoy making other people feel better because it leads to them enjoying life too.    I have seen what massage can do.

There is also the possibility of becoming a sales weasel.   Marketing comes naturally to me, and I enjoy it.  Even if I don’t make enough money,  marketing skill will be valuable in the having a private practice and/or retaining clients for massage therapy.

On the whole, the most important thing is that I am doing something I enjoy and making enough money to raise children with Julie.  Without becoming a workaholic, absentee father.

That being said, I am embarking on a marketing job with Techquility.   Shouldn’t be hard, good product, good people.

Good Night.
