Hopes and habits

Coming up on another one of those anniversaries. Six months since I worked. I had a nearly 5 year period of this at one time. And it isn't for lack of trying to look. But how does one pass the time? Taking a nice hot walk, copy and fax a thin resume or two. A snack and a bit of video. The weather has finally dipped in DC so if I want to slum it in the park and play guitar for the lunch crowd and the winos, fine and not too insufferable.
Two things are pulling me through this juncture, well the Xanax helped at first but more importantly, my girlfriend Julie, who I know is reading this.. Hi baby, you looked pleasantly disheveled waking up. Messy bangs and all. Shortly thereafter, sharp and snazzy, fetchingly chamrming, n' purty. Courier of millions who have glaringly obvious questions to put to the leader of the free world. She gets to ask em, though W often wriggles out of them spots without providing a proper answer. Is this what we get for our very expensive democracy?

Adult Education

A couple of months ago this would have referred to my assistanceship in a "How to Shoot Your Own Adult Video" course.
But for those too lazy to pursue a real education I would recommend something more practical. Though any coursework that takes less than 6 months or 10K can't be bad. Today i begun my immersion on why Im breaking the bank with the start of my 10 day course in AVID. Myself and 2 (professional people) students sat with an instructer who flew in from Dallas just for this 3 day gig. I wonder how many true neophytes he comes across. First he nails me in one of my bouts of microsleep, then I get somewhat flustered at the speed and lack of facility I have keeping up with the mundane movements of work. After redoing my work a couple of times after the realization that sometime before I went to lunch i made several huge mistakes, I explained my conundrum. Perservered, I shall persist on, tomorrow.
