I hate to think I went in for nothing.

I always back up my interview files to both an external drive I have and my Google drive. And somehow this one wasn't in either place. I set up a time to talk with the person again this week.

Oddly enough, I ranted about stuff for like 20 minutes and then was able to center my thoughts again.

Sometimes inspiration strikes.

I actually knew a few people there which was pretty of cool. You can see the 'Desk jumpin'!' video I'm talking about on my YouTube channel. https://youtu.be/khqKgi14mQs .

It seemed like the day didn't really happen if that makes sense?

I can't remember the last time I actually played video games.

I drank coffee all day and ate five candy canes, maybe that was it? I don't know

When I do finally get things I'm working on running the way I want, I get super happy. The time before that just seems wasted until it happens.

I think he calls her first most of the time.

I always have to go out and get Christmas presents at the last minute because Merijoy snoops.

I'm just gonna through the shoes away I think.

I figured he would be ok because he wears his pants so low. But I guess not.

It was a big open field and it kinda looked like that old footage of Bigfoot walking through it.

The requirements to upload video to Amazon are pretty thorough. I have to add closed captioning for them too which also takes up a big chunk of time.

We ain't buying some silly snowman sweater for work.

The panda suit really confused me though.

I have a tiny little car. The back of her car is just so far back!

I was happy I could suggest it to him.

When the person on the phone helped me I was still responding loudly. I wasn't supposed to be done getting angry so soon.

Feeling much more functional after my cold relapse yesterday. You can see the 'Desk jumpin'!' video I'm talking about on my YouTube channel.  https://youtu.be/khqKgi14mQs . I was also much larger back then it seems when I look at it.

I thought I was getting better yesterday.

I give away a lot of stickers at the event too. I'm always curious who remembers me afterward.

It's really interesting how much I use my phone to create things these days. Here is a collage of the different phone postcard drawings I made.

This is a good example for when people ask if my Amazon Echo is useful.

I didn't really think about that until I got there.

It just couldn't stay running for a few more weeks could it!

During the winter I become a huge germaphobe and it's the only environment I don't have any control over. I just picture them touching everything.

It's not a bad thing, I just get so impatient when there is stuff I want to get set up. And building websites takes so freaking long. You can check out the page I made for the book at book.americanbandito.com

I even remember the book. It was called Body & Soul by Frank Conroy .

It was fine.
