Y2 D72

Finally finished re-arranging my front room yesterday. Took most of the day. Had to drill a hole in the wall to re-wire the sat dish, had to move a couch into my bedroom because it doesn't fit in the new spot in the front room, and almost threw my back out, but the end result was worth it. The front room looks cleaner, more efficient, and more importantly I stopped picking up interference on my stereo from the neighbors downstairs. That was probably the biggest factor. Ever since I moved in here I have had this faint static coming through on my system. Normally you don't notice it, but if you're watching a quiet movie, in the background you here whatever bad music the neighbors are listening to in the background. Very annoying.

Side topic - when did it become acceptable to send people message in the middle of the night? Is it just my industry or what? I am getting very resentful at people expecting that I work 24/7. I am getting to the point where if it is after 5pm, I don't answer the phone and I am turning off email at 10pm. I mean come on. Between 10 and 1, I had 7 emails come in from four different people. That's ridiculous.

The kid helped yesterday with the room rearranging. More importantly she started packing. Today I am on PTO and we are running off shortly to one of the area's amusement parks. A full day of roller coasters and crappy food. By the time we get home we will both be so drained packing will be the last thing on her mind. She doesn't know what time her mother is getting here Saturday, so trying to rush pack then would have been a mistake. The best part? She decided on her own to start packing. Shows me she is thinking things through and becoming the adult I need her to be.

I talked to LO a little bit last night. Nothing deep, very superficial, but whatever. We are friends, nothing more. Maybe at some point I will go back out there and see her, but who knows. Given all the headaches it's caused, I am better off letting it die.

Another side note - If I see one more goddamn match.com commercial telling me how wonderful they are and the "real" date footage I am going to scream. I don't know where the fuck they are getting their matches, but I am certainly not finding it. Feel like I have wasted money on all these online things. Better off alone anyway.

No one understood my facebook post yesterday - July 6th 2018 11:59pm. It's a counter. A deadline. A way to measure when I will be done...
