Dateline 12-1-2016

Damn it, now my schedules all out of whack.

Now that I've lost my day job, I have no routine that I have to stick to. Sure, there is a routine that I would ideally like to stick to but until I find a new job my entire day is completely optional as to what I have to do.

Last night I finished another section of my Android class so now it's time to switch to assignment mode. Usually, when this happens I like to take a day to take in what I learned and ponder my options for implementing ideas to fulfill said assignment.

This is a practice that I got into back when I was writing screenplays. First, an idea would strike, then I would contemplate whether or not I was serious about wanting to commit the efforts into writing the first draft. Once I was committed, I would do nothing but think about the story for at least a day. Inevitably, late at night, as I tried to fall asleep the answers to the questions that I pondered throughout the day would just seem to come to me from the ether. I'd then wake the next day fully enthused and ready to write.

I don't know if this method equates to the same type of superstitious logic an athlete might use when they credit something like never washing their socks for a winning streak but I've worked it into a routine that at least seems to work for me.

The only problem is, now that I don't have the day job, this post will be the only productive thing that I do today that is all that productive. I am a little bummed about my job loss, maybe I'll just consider today a day or mourning or maybe I'll clean my room and focus on a couple personal needs that have not been met in quite a while. 

I was up pretty late last night taking my classes and did wake up way too early for having nothing to do. Maybe I'll just nap on it and see what I have energy for when I awake. We'll see what happens and as always, I let you know what that what is when I check in tomorrow.

Talk to you then,
