Day 365

So, we have finally come to the end. I started this project one year ago and today is the day I finish it. Some things have changed over the past 365 days; some better, some worse. To be honest, there are plenty of things that have stayed the same. Life isn't as bad as it could be, but it certainly isn't as good as I want it to be.

I've spent far to much time contemplating life, my own future, what success is and how to find it. I've become distant from some, which I'm saddened and disappointed by. It is regrettable. But I have met new people and learned new things. I've reconnected with some and gotten closer to a few others. Some days life continues to confuse and frustrate me. Other days I take what's given and do the best I can.

Anyway, here we are at the end. Maybe I'll do this again. Maybe I'll try something different.

I could say "So long, and thanks for all the fish!" But instead I think I'll just say that some things in life are bad - they can really make you mad. Other things just make you swear and curse......

Day 364

One day, whenever that day may be, I will own a house. And that house will have a deck, or patio, or back porch, or whatever. And on that deck/etc. I will have a grill. And it will be good.

Day 363

No, sir. I don't like it.

Day 362

Well, this whole year long experiment is almost over. I think I should cut my hair. Besides, if I don't, I run the risk of my hair going full blown Mel Kiper Jr.

Day 361

Big money! Actually no money at all. You can make all the crazy bets you want when you play for free!

Day 360

This is one of about 20 pre-made meals that were brought down a while ago. I've been eating them ever since, and I still have a full freezer.

Day 359

It's Interstellar Towel Day! Why? Here's why!

Day 358

A tuna pita. Tuna is probably the only fish I eat. Most likely because I make it with far more mayo than it needs.

Day 357

The best candy bar. Ever. It's not really all that misogynistic. It's really more like solid milk chocolate.

Day 356

This was my favorite part of campus back in college. But now they're destroying it to build a big new building. I suppose there's no standing in the way of progress. And I suppose there's no reason to attend any Queens sponsored events or give them any money. Ever.

Day 355

Hold on a second... Elephants aren't dinosaurs! What are we teaching the children of today?

Day 354

Air hockey? Yes.

Day 353

Ha! Frank Lloyd Wright has nothing on me!

Day 352

A friend made some ice cream. It's dark chocolate and rice crispy treats. And chipotle peppers.

Day 351

Usually, I only want Chick-fil-A when it's closed. That's usually on Sundays.

Day 350

I found out where the beef has been all these years. It's what's for dinner.

Day 349

A nice home cooked meal. And it wasn't one I had to cook myself. This, and a lot of other good things, was all due to my parents being in town.

Day 348

Doing lots of work on the truck. So long running board.

Vaya con dios window motor.

Day 347

Blogger decided to stop working for a few days. Still waiting for day 345 to come back. If it doesn't, then it's probably staying lost. Starting to understand why professional bloggers back-up everything they do.

Anyway...here's a picture I had laying around.

Also, it's Friday the 13th. Not to be confused with Friday, Next Friday, or Friday After Next.

Day 346

Pile of junk ready to be thrown out. Feels good to clean out some stuff.

Day 345

I could drink cherry limeaid every day.

Day 344

Picture by one of the busiest people in the business of arts, crafts, & general awesomeness.

Day 343

Somehow, I doubt that...

Day 342

From summer to winter and now back to spring.

It's also Mother's Day, so make sure you give her a call.

Day 341

This is the game that nearly broke me. The clunky controls. The (intentionally) poorly designed save system. Spending more time in load screens & pointless cut scenes then actually playing the game. I could go on, but wont.

Day 340

Putzing around at a movie theater. Also, I'm getting very close to throwing my phone into a wall.

Day 339

Night sky.

Day 338

A nice pot of mixed veg.

Also it's May 4th, or May the fourth. And, if you're so inclined to do so, you could say, "may the fourth be with you."

Day 337

When you're a kid and say things like, "When I grow up, I'm going to have a root beer float whenever I want to, because I'll be an adult." Well, I'm having a root beer float because I'm an adult.

Day 336

Working behind a desk. What's that all about?

Day 335

You'd think that by now I would have learned to get Mother's Day earlier than a week before Mother's Day. You'd be wrong. Off I go to Hallmark...along with half the city of Charlotte.
