Dateline 8-18-2016

Last night ended up being an out of the blue fun night. First I received a surprise invite to dinner by my mom to meet up with my uncle and his girlfriend. I haven't seen them in a while so it was real nice to get caught up. I ordered an amazing Ahi tuna dish and washed it down with a couple peanut butter stouts. 

Since I've significantly slowed my drinking, I was thinking that I could pull off having a couple drinks with dinner and calling it a night but on the way home I could sense the insomnia that sets in when I only have a drink or two so I requested a stop at the store to buy a big bottle of wine to finish off the night.

I spent the rest of the night drinking alone and ended up having a blast in the process. I listened several old episodes of my favorite podcast as I plotted out my next Wicker Breaker project. I'm not going to go into the idea now and am not sure if I will actually follow through with turning this plan into a reality but I had fun traveling down a very convoluted road and if you know me, there is nothing I like more than a convoluted project.  

At one point I was genuinely contemplating throwing caution to the wind and jumping into this plan full steam ahead. The problem is, my plate is already full, between work, this project and the latest course that I signed up for. 

I think I was more excited by the enthusiasm I was feeling than the actual project I had in mind because I awoke to stereotypical document that was much more ingenious with an altered state of mind. That said, I still want to give it a shot but I'm going to have to wait until I'm done with my Android course. 

In general, I feel like I am in a much better mood since starting this course which seems to trigger overall ambition. Now it's time to get back to work.

Talk to you tomorrow,
