JUNE 2016

Late this month....this should be the last month that I slack like this... BECAUSE I AM DONE WITH SCHOOL.....forever! I am now equipped with a Master's Degree in a particular sub-area of Civil Engineering, so I guess in a way, I am a "somebody", even though I do not have my professional license. I don't want to THINK about advancing the career, possibly for a better paying job or something like that.  I just am tired of starting again....like the song "Best of You" by the Foo Fighters says. It's OK - the current status quo isn't bad.   By the end of the year, I will think about possibly looking for a better job, and studying up on things to maybe take the PE exam in 2017 or 2018.   But for now, I just want to relax, enjoy some things, possibly try to build some semblance of a social life...maybe get laid some time, which would be great.  Last winter, I actually did get some action.  I hated the idea of an online type of hookup thing - but ...

APRIL 2016

Am I eligible for sainthoood?  There must have been at least three times a miracle prevented me from ripping their head off with all the noise they make.  Apartment living at some point becomes not a bohemian joy but a drudgery. But yes, it has its advantages. Busy with school - one more fucking month left of grad school.  I am eager....so eager.... That is all.   Little interest in music as my chart shows - not a lot of movement for this month.

Adele is so cool. I am swept away with the two songs I know from her. One of those songs - well, see below! The other I only heard recently, and was so moved by it. I guess that I like her modesty. She's not arrogant, maybe a tad shy. I tend to not like vocalist performers, but Adele - wow, I never would have guessed how much I'm inter her right now. How y'all doing? I'm OK, I guess. Still chronically underemployed, and no closer to choosing a long term life path. There are things I'm getting into, like music and acting, but those things aren't worth mentioning until/unless they become viable, real things, and not just hobbies. Enough said about that...As always, it's fun to look at the charts from a decade ago. I actually wrote to Michele Crispin, telling her how interesting and cool her cover of "Rapture". She actually wrote back! That song by Linkin Park is the only one of theirs that has charted on my Top 5. I just don't like them that ...
