Update 60: Reflection…

June 26th, 2007 by The Reverend Menagerie

Between work and a headcold, I’m exhausted. At least this week I have a few days off thanks to a disaster of a trip the agency I work for is planning in a most half-assed way.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately, when I have downtime at work. I’ve decided I need a change. I’m already planning to move back to the other side of the state as soon as certain conditions are met, and I’ll be getting a new job. I hope that that will be enough of a change, but I’m not certain. I know I want to continue in the field I’m in. I like my job, I’m just not fond of one of my clients.

Alabama 3 - Mao Tse Tung Said

I’m going to repeat an artist this week. Mostly due to the fact that while on random in my iPod, these two songs slid beautifully into each other. I’ve been listening a lot to Busdriver lately.

Busdriver - Happiness(’s Unit Of Measurement)

Going back to needing a change, I feel that I have grown since the shitstorm that was my divorce happened. (I also feel that my ex-wife has turned into a petulant child, using my daughter as a weapon, but that’s a story for another entry). I’m no longer as childish. I have wants, needs, and a desire to fill them.

I also have some days where I’m moody as all hell. This happens when I think a lot, as well.

Cold - Confession

I’m enjoying my time off. I’ve played a lot of Oblivion (Xbox 360). It’s mainly the reason I didn’t update yesterday, as planned. Just started a new character, based more on the skills I tend to use often.

It relieves stress, and I sorely need that. I need less stress, less worry, and more fun.

Nirvana - Lithium

I’ve been thinking about when I move back…home, for lack of a better term. I burned quite a few bridges with people I loosely considered friends, and while I’m certain the old drug scene no longer exists, I’m not sure if I want to risk it.

Even I like being mostly sober, I wouldn’t mind a bit of err, smoke, here or there, though. I just can’t afford to do what I used to do, drug-wise. I want to relax, only. Alcohol does not help me relax, it just amplifies whatever mood I’m in.

I don’t mind being a happy drunk, but a sad drunk annoys the fuck out of me.

Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers - Jack Vs. Jose

I’m going to update again on either Monday or Tuesday of next week. Fridays are becoming too hectic with work lately. See you then.

Oh, and before I forget, I’ll have a new email for this site up shortly. In the meantime, comment if you like.
