4 day weekend and nothing to show for it

November 28th, 2004 · No Comments

ah well it was bound to happen sometime..you see, i have run out of fun projects at the fort. oh dont’ get me wrong there is a ton of crap to do, mostly involving painting trim, but all of the fun projects seem to be over–you know the ones that need the sledge hammer and the sawzall.  i hate painting trim, i really do. and that’s the bulk of what’s left. well there are big things, things i can’t do, that need to be done…but again, where does that leave me?

I went up do the home centers and pretty much didn’t buy anything, how sad is that? what do i do now?

i ventured out on black friday, the biggest retail day of the year, and well, it was bad, but not as bad as i have seen it. people were spending craploads of money though, i ended up at target, and cripes, people had shit literally falling out of their over stuffed carts. it was mostly crap to, i mean do you really need a frozen pizza oven, i mean do you really eat so much that you need a dedicated appliance? hell what do i know…

i did spend a fair amount of time and cash at staples…i finally gave up the dream and bought a fake aeron,  it just seemed like the right thing to do, and while it doesn’t tilt 400 directions, it isn’t all that bad, i guess. i’m thinking of getting myself a jack spade bag, as it was my other dot economy dream materialistic good, theyve come down in price, a bit, i guess that’s a funciton of being 3 years out of style. i guess iti’s time to grow up and realize that it’ll never be 1999 again, and i’ll never be that dot millionare, damn, that’s depressing.  i need mr. sapphire STAT, he always makes me feel like i could
end up as CEO somewhere.

well lets see whatelse, oh yeah, thanksgiving. it was very quiet and low key, which was nice. we took henry along with us to natty’s father’s house. what’s weird is he would only talk to me, and then pretended not to speak to the other people, i dunno, i guess maybe because we spend so much time together he trusts me. everyone keep looking at me funny when i was having conversations with  him… hmm very odd.

and so that about wraps it up, oh i could talk about my quest for the filter for our humidifer, and how it has taken me to 5 different Rite Aid’s, but hell you don’t want to read about that…. or i could make some comments about the college girls at the mall wearing their UGGS with their mini skirts, a fashion,  which was, i think, popular about 18 months ago everywhere else. but , again, who wants to hear about that…
