Yes!

I'm such an idiot -- I should have taken a little Blog Stroll around the old E-Neighborhood and seen what was going down. I could have bypassed the whole "Jesus Christ I have a Boring Life" post (see previous) and put up my OWN "Four Things" list.

I'm working on it...

Yeah, that's right. I'm working on it.

Trying to come up with something interesting to say on this here old blog. Truth be told, I'm having a hard time coming up with anything.

I lieu of anything truly interesting or entertaining, here's a quick rundown of the "recent" happenings (in no particular order, other than by which they came to mind):

1. I worked.
A.) At the paper. (Nothing new at all to report there).
B.) At the bar. (Nothing of note there, either).

2. I went on one, single, solitary, lame-ass trip. To Spokane. Where I was victimized by cruel hotel lobby staff, pushy bums and uppity bartenders.
It was not entertaining and nothing came of it.

3. I got numerous interesting phone messages from friends who are actually out in the world doing interesting things. The most notable being from a bar in Chicago. The friend in question was drinking bourbon with blues legend Buddy Guy. His recommendation to me: "Ha! Feel jealous. Feel really, really jealous." He is on an Amtrack trip around the country.
I was very jealous.

4. I enjoyed the holidays.
A.) I got a terrible cold/flu right in time for Christmas and spent much of the holiday laying on people's couches.
B.) I worked at the bar on New Year's Eve.

5. I consolidated my student loans. Well, half of them. Yet I was still late in paying them.

6. I ate meals; smoked cigarettes; drank water, soda and alcohol; listened to music here and there; breathed; drove a vehicle; watched movies; went to dinner parties; checked mail; went to bars; drew cartoons; and generally existed without much incident.

So there you have it. My Life In A Nutshell. More to come in the near-ish future (God willing).

Bah.
