Got an very empty bank account since the social security agency has "misplaced" my files. Good fun.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Spent too much time abusing people on Reddit. Now have to go do errands with my mom.

I drank a bit too much last night and ended up with a bartender's phone number.  Awkward.  I think he just wanted to be a guest on my podcast though.  :p

 

This morning I am planning on cleaning the house, and I'm hoping to get the kids to do their fair share.  That would be a Christmas miracle.

why'd you call the man "the prettiest princess", again?

I honestly don't remember

 

Was alcohol involved? If so they shouldn't hold it against you. 

 

Nope just family. He was the one who said he should be a unicorn.

After spending 3 hours on the phone with different agencies and services, it turns out my ****ing boss has'nt told the social security agency that I've been sick. Mother****ing ****sucking little ****, I'm going to pressurecook his balls while they're still attached to him and then force feed them to him. :banghead:

I got all my wifes presents wrapped and under the tree today while she was at work. I feel like I did good this year being more creative with her gifts, and I paid for everything I could in cash so I didnt leave an electronic trail for her to follow in our banking app. :lol:

Downloaded and converted a lot of music (videos) to MP3s and had it on a USB stick plugged in my car. Driving along and a whole heap of Bad Lip Reading songs were playing and I had a big grin on my face listening to the lyrics. After a few songs, my girlfriend said, these songs are pretty good, they're happy songs. I asked if she was listening to the words and she was like, no, but the music is good. :lol:

I need to come up with a decent logo for my History of Hops podcast so I can make business cards.  I'm thinking about an open book with a hop vine around it, or something.  Or maybe a tap pouring knowledge, although that may be out of me abilities as an artist.  Actually I have no abilities as an artist.  Hrm.

I drank rum and took a nap.

But why would you try to do something that is not your skillset ?

 

Why not ask one of the Art teachers to assist or give ideas around creativity ?

I've just read that Carrie Fisher died. 2016 still has a few days, I guess.

 

****! ;_;

My backyard was getting pretty overgrown, so the neighbor brought over a couple goats.  They are fun to watch.  The dog is having a blast trying to live out his herding fantasies, although he has learned to keep his distance from the one with horns.

Sister got me a Rogue One coffee mug that changes the design when it's heated. Turns out it cracked when hot water was put into it. I guess there was a hidden flaw in it.

Started getting a cold on Monday. So had a couple of nights of fever dreams. These are kind of fun, for certain values of fun.

 

First night I couldn't even form coherent thoughts as I tried to sleep. No words, just pictures that could be best described as what a fly would see if half its eyes wandered.

 

Last night was a bit better. I had a fantastic dream were I was some sort of world renowned AI researcher that people wanted to get back into the business, but I completely refused, trying to tell them to do it themselves. Somehow this lead to a Starcraft teams tournament, where I had the absolutely brilliant idea of rushing the enemy with a swarm of weak enemies. I felt this was very clever. Though apparently in my dream, matches start with all your units already built, so the opposing team blew themselves up killing my units. At this point I started to panic because I was sure this was against the rules. However, all the audience does is complain about that's why Blizzard doesn't allow large maps and some debate over Bryce Dallas Howard's acting ability.

Even though I cancelled my leave for December its been fun and interesting staying in JHB this week. I work a few hours each day but then I can do my own thing in the afternoon. Today I have been at Hooters which is always festive, shooters and chickens wings were rife

 

And I still get to take this time off as leave later  :dancing:

Vacation journal, day 6: I feel myself going quite mad from the boredom...sights and sounds just on the edge of my perception. The NFL channel has been playing in the background for the last ~54 hours and there is no more internet that can possibly be clicked. I should buy a slip in the marina for my boat.

I'm going to turn the soil in the garden today. There is nothing growing there now. It's just waiting for spring. I have a project in mind this year that requires planting corn. So at least half the field is being dedicated to corn this spring.
