Alright, it's Monday!!! Time to get to work... okay, the Monday part sucks, I don't really know why though because there is no difference between Monday and Friday to me as every day is the exact same to me anymore but I am still mentally conditioned to goes a bit easier over the weekend making Monday a ramp up to regularity day which I guess is the answer as to why I still have unfavorable feelings toward the start of the week.

Yesterday ended up being a pretty good recovery day and now I feel like I'm back on my game. I started the day, still feeling a little out of it with twinges of pain from what I think is my first case of food poisoning. I may have had food poisoning in the past but I always thought of it as a BS self-diagnosed illness one uses to get out of work. In this case, however, four out of the four people I shared dinner with all ended up with the same stomach symptoms.

Alright, I am feeling much better today, I wouldn't say that I'm feeling 100% better but at least I can now sit at my computer without feeling like I'm about to die. I spent all day in bed yesterday, only getting up to move to the couch to lay for a spell in order to relieve some of the pressure point pains that come from not moving for hours.

Oh my god, I am feeling like crap today... not run down emotionally like I normal gripe about when my energy levels are this low. It sucks because I woke up nice and early ready to face the day. Then when I stood I felt woozy and instantly collapsed back into bed.

Alright, I'm finally feeling like I am back on the ball. For the past, maybe, five days I've been feeling frustrated because I haven't been completing my daily tasks until around 4:00 or 5:00 in the PM when used to wrap things up around noon. These extra four to five hours of effort left me feeling frustrated that this was going to be a new normal that wouldn't allow me the time to get to all the other things that I need to get to in future when I add a steady job to the mix.

So, yesterday was technically my birthday, which happens to be the technical birthday I prefer to celebrate on non-leap year years. That said, today is also technically my birthday and is probably the technical birthday that is more valid being that it is the day after the 28th just like the 29th would be.

Well, today is sort of my birthday. Maybe this is why I've been feeling a little weird lately. Though I haven't openly been thinking about getting older and not being happy with where I am in life at this age, there must be some sort of Pavlovian response within me that's been draining my energy since the start of this last weekend (when I would have planned my birthday festivities if I still had friends.)

I don't know why I get to this point from time to time, where I will be chugging along just fine feeling like I'm on a roll that cannot be stopped only to hit a wall when I feel that I'm getting comfortable. This time, I spent about a week and a half feeling like all of my blogging activities were coming to me effortlessly and I was back to being proud of my work. Then for some reason, Saturday struck and now I just sit here staring at my monitor. 

Dateline 2-26-2017

Alright, today is going to be a quick one because I'm feeling a bit burnt out. Not burnt out in the onset of depression way but burnt out nonetheless. It's just another one of those days where I don't really have anything to say after a week of feeling pretty happy with the content that I've been putting out and now I'm left with nothing to report on.

If I could make a living doing what I what I did yesterday, I would be a very happy man. First, I woke up early but not too early, I actually felt like getting out of bed over just giving up on the idea of getting more sleep and opting to start the day. 

Dateline 2-24-2017

Well, now I can add learning to play bass to my list of things I'm putting off until I have more time and/or financial security to focus on!!! Actually, this is more of an added step to my earlier midlife-crisis goal to learn to play the guitar.

I don't know how much I like this new early morning life that I've been living for the past couple weeks. Though I really like getting all of my (self-imposed) blogging obligations done hours before I would normally be awake, it screws up my timing for the rest of my day. 

Dateline 2-22-2017

Yesterday ended up being pretty productive, not quite the way I envisioned it but productive nonetheless. After "publishing" my Daily Breaker post, I had to write a review for the episode of SNL that I watched the night before in order to stay ahead of the game. Now that I've got a system set up I can get all of my blogging (self-imposed) obligations done before noon.

Dateline 2-21-2017

Alright, I've taken about a month off from taking my classes and now it's time to get back to work. I can't start my next stretch of Android Development courses until I find a better job that's more stable or if I land a nice one-time gig with a big enough payday to cover my classes for at least six months.

Dateline 2-20-2017

As I warned yesterday, today I feel perfectly fine. My moment of self-pity was just a passing thought and once I noted it, it was gone. Yesterday ended up being a pretty good day that I feel is setting me up for a pretty productive week. I'm now far enough ahead of my SNL reviews that I can get back to focusing on my regular life.

Every once in a while I feel like every single person that I know has unfollowed me on social media. Part of the problem is that I'm not all that active but most of my posts are met with silence, especially when I'm trying to say something that I take seriously. Then every now and again I post a quick pop culture joke and am instantly rewarded with reactions.

I don't really have all that much to say today so I figured what better time for a garden update. I've been so lucky with the weather in San Diego this year because it's been a couple months since I've had to do more than a little spot watering. Other than that, nature's been in control of most of the water duties.

Dateline 2-17-2017

Yesterday ended up being a pretty good day and now I'm on top of my game again which has me feeling great. If for some reason you are reading this and are unaware of my latest Saturday Night Live challenge, greetings, and I've been watching at least one episode of SNL every day and plan to keep at it until I watch every episode ever made.

I think I've gotten enough distance from working on movies to finally rekindle my relationship with film and scripted television. I used to love any moving pictures on any sized screen which is what lead me to want to work in the industry. This is why I chose stagecraft over sports in high school despite the fact that I was naturally the size of an NFL lineman.

How are we living in a time that is so technologically advanced to have so many products designed without using all that much foresight? Is it the fact that everything's so disposable now to where features are purposely overlooked to allow for double dipping into our pocket books with ever upgrading products?
