Journal - Monday, December 10th, 2018
Goals for today. Finish up budget. Get bonus cashed/deposited. Try to finish October writing. Laundry and clean. Stretch before bed. Read some. Play piano a bit. Clean laundry and spare room. That will be good for today. No weed after work to make sure I stay productive. I do want to get some coffee, so maybe I’ll swing up to Mothership and pick up a bag and a coffee. Nah, I’ll wait till the weekend. It’ll be easier. I can live without till then. I should swing by the store and get milk and yogurt. So I can make overnight oats for breakfast and some quinoa and veggies for lunch. I really don’t like the whole skipping lunch think. I like eat more that once a day. but today I will skip lunch cause I’m to lazy to get anything ready. Dinner will be left overs from Friday. I’ll have mashed potatoes all week I’m okay with that. they tasted delicious. Bob wants to make a space rock album together and I’m so down. I would be a lot of fun. Get it written then meet up somewhere and rent a studio for a weekend and get it recorded. It would be awesome! Probably release it under Stocksmile.

I was bad today and went to lunch. but its okay. Got some ramen and It’ll be delicious. Pulled and audible and come here instead of Cafe Zupa. I feel I just wanted soup and this is basically noodle soup. Michi Ramen is pretty tasty. Not quite as good as the place I went to with Luna, but still good. I still forget that I went to Japan/Philippines. It feel so long ago. It’s crazy. I’m definitely passing on the Bali trip and will go to Europe in the summer. Take a couple weeks

off work and travel around or pick a certain place and stay there or maybe just go back to Japan. I wouldn’t be against that. I should start planning it now. January I’ll start looking into Flights and stuff like that and a long weekend to Boston to see Bob and Emily. Probably around Marchish. We’ll see. I know I’m taking the two days to go to the film festival. I’ll pay her the money this weekend. have G-Ma stay with me and go to the festival together. Plus it’ll give Mom and dad a little break from her for a weekend. I have to hit up Marshall and then today and see if I can actually Play the show with them. Give him an easy out just so he doesn’t feel bad if he doesn’t want to do it.

I don’t want to get Dad a coffee maker, but I know if I get a nice one he will appreciate it and probably get Mel something else like a shirt or something. I’ll get that stuff order this week. Find something good for Makayla. I may get her possibly some anime stuff and then influence her to go in that direction in life. Like I have that much influence. there’s Tiff, Trav, Andy, Jake and Nathan. I can swing that ad dget them stuff off amazon and have it gift wrapped. I’m pretty sure I have her address in my maps. I’ll ask her for some gift Ideas. Probably get Travis a new pipe or something like that. I wander if this waitress really talks like that. Maybe its a family trying to make a business out here. Nah. I feel there’s enough people that they could just be from here. Learned the native language first? or they are here with a visa or something? I have no clue. I’ll definitely get this week done plus some more. Finish up these rails and then after work head to Costco. Get some stuff there. See if Gma wants to go. She might be down or I’ll go the store by myself for an easier time.

My quinoa tabbouleh may not turn out so great. I forgot the lemon, but I used some pickle juice in stead. Hopefully it’ll be all right. I’ll start heating up dinner after I get done with this day. I did get some stuff for the over night oats so I’m pretty excited about that. Got some maple syrup and banana and cinnamon! Should be delicious! I did pretty good today. Sucks I have to work Saturday but its a good excuse for taking it easy on Friday. I have to do something about this washer. This is just ridiculous. I need to ask my folks if I can take the set at G-pas. or just find a cheap washer at least then I can wash and dry at the same time. Something has to happen. I may go say hi to Vivian after the Skating Polly show. Would be nice to se her. I know she’ll be busy so maybe I’ll just go home after. I still want to ask Luna, but we’ll see how Friday goes. Maybe I will schmooze someone. I know I know I have a chance with Brittany. I’m just not stoked on her. So I feel that will be a lost cause on my end I’ll end up hurting her.

Leftovers should be good. the pierogies and stuff I’m down for. Cut up a couple slices of cheese. I’m down! I am only disappointing myself when I eat too much or do it do what I should be doing. Like how I’m sitting here watching it’s always sunny in stead of doing what I should. I’ll definitely clean the kitchen before I go to bed. I wonder if everything thinks I’m an alcoholic. Probably cause its right. I’m definitely not drinking a lot anymore. I have to be better. I will be better. I mean. I had 2.5 beers on Friday and and had 5 drinks all of Saturday. I’ll do even better this weekend. Friday I will have very little, I’m even second guessing eve going to the party. Maybe I’ll just stay home. Nah. I will go but I won’t participate in the gift exchange or I will. I’ll get a bottle of booze. Can’t go wrong there or maybe get something off amazon that's cool. We’ll see. I’m going and I’m bringing a gift. No drinking and home early tomorrow. I’ll get the Christmas cars and stamps and start working on the cards. I am excited to get them sent out. It’s going to be great. I’ll get the list of names all done tomorrow and get some addresses.
