in college I would have enrolled years ago.

Daughter and me are going to visit Pops today since he just got out of the hospital. 80 deg F and sunny, so a nice day for a road trip.

Yesterday I was hiking in some mountains near Breckenridge, Colorado. Near the top it was about 30 degrees and I made snowballs. Today we drove about an hour north to Denver and it's 90 degrees. Colorado's a cool place

My day was not exciting! it started at 8.30 am with an 11 hour shift at work, selling sofas and hoping to make some commission! i did serve a sooper cute soldier who was also a sweet guy and liked his coffee black ( just like me, war time cha) i had a dance off with the guys from work, i did not win as my shapes were not the best. i drank 5 cups of tea and ate 3 biscuits.

that is aboot it! i am now being boring on a sat night and sitting in, trying to buy birthday gifts, for someone who's birthday was yesterday! i am a bad friend!

i am eating a twirl tho, so not all bad!

Monday I rode my bike four and a half miles to the video game store to replace the cord to my XBox 360, in weather with a heat index in the hundreds, only to find out the ******* at the store gave me the wrong cord. So today I went back to the store to replace the replacement, only to find out that they didn't have the one I needed. But a nearby Gamestop did. Now, given the distance I'd have to travel to get to this store, combined with the distance I'd already traveled, I'd normally have said **** it and waited for someone to give me a lift, but I was so fed up with the bull**** that I just decided to go and get it over with. Now I'm back, after riding my bike for what I calculate to have been at least seventeen miles in all. At least. Thankfully about halfway through my journey my ass became numb, cause before then it was starting to feel like it had gone twelve rounds with Liberace. But my 360 now works! So now I'm going to ruin my new found good mood by playing my new copy of Dark Souls. FML?

ugh

today started off good.

Woke up, made banana bread and applesauce with some leftover fruit that was starting to spoil. Decided I should get some new shoes and maybe a haircut- just a trim. Went to the mission, got stalked by some sketchy mother****ers. Scratch that. Went to the Haight. And then I remembered everything that makes me hate this city. It was like every single person on Haight today was just some stereotypical transplant with the same ****ing generic, superficial, disengenuous attitude that I'm just so ****ing sick and tired of being around. I swear I graduated high school, really, I thought I did. But apparently I didn't. Either that or so far being in your early twenties is just as cliqueish and boring as being an adolescent. Even the freaks and weirdos are just... rich kids from Walnut Creek and LA, reliving the hippie and/or gutterpunk lifestyles of yesteryear. Don't have enough money for that speedball? Better hit up gramps and grams at the retirement home in your Sunday best. Tell um you need it for uh, books. For college. I feel like that dude on Family Guy that calls everyone a phoney- I wonder if I'm just an ******* or if I'm actually right. Either way I need to find a way get the **** outta here. Job hunt is bust, apparently I'm either unemployable or no one is hiring.

Build yourself a resume and print it on some decent paper.

Find a place where people are kind of like you. I learned this the hard way because there have been times where I've decided to bullshit my way through a job interview and ended up on a job where everyone's really stuck up and not worth talking to (and the boss was a cunt).

Aggressively pursue that shit until someone takes you seriously.

Cruise newspapers, Craigslist, Indeed, LinkedIN, stripmalls, whatever. Enlist in temp agencies if you have to (sometimes they're good, sometimes they're not so good, but I've seen their services are more favorable toward those who are outwardly male and therefore apparently capable of manual labor - Temp agency logic doesn't make a lot of sense).

If it's a walk-in establishment and not necessarily a corporate setting, be a customer. Introduce yourself to the manager before your transaction is through. Tell them they've got a great place. Butter that shit right up. Give them a copy of your resume (walk around with a folder if you need to - that's what I used to do, and I looked slick as hell).

There are ways to get your foot in the door but the best time of year to go job searching is in August and September - the youth are going back to school and establishments are losing their summer staff (most of the time) to some degree. Hell, move to the suburbs if you have the opportunity.

Anyway.

I've spent most of my day in bed. I feel quite ill. My bones are aching and I have the strangest toothache in a place where a wisdom tooth used to be (what the hell, seriously??) so I'm a bit worse for wear.
