Maybe they were super cheap ($2?) or free? Shit, I'd drink Heineken all night if it was that cheap, it ain't that bad.
It reminds me of skunks.Quote:

They're probably under the uniformed opinion that it is fancy beer.
What does an opinion uniform look like?
A room full of sad faces.
My sister asked me a couple of weeks ago if I could find her an old PC that she could give to my niece, since they live in a small town and I'm in a city where this shit is cheap and easy to find. All she needs it for is web browsing and iTunes, so I figured I could find something pretty fast for little or no money. Sure enough, yesterday I found a fully functional old PC (Athlon XP 3000, 512MB DDR400, 80GB HDD, combo drive, decent motherboard and PSU) sitting on the sidewalk around the corner from my house. I just had to wipe the hard drive and set up Windows XP and few drivers and programs, and now it's ready to go. I also have a really nice flatscreen CRT that I grabbed from the curb last summer and have no use for, so that's basically complete system for free.
what kind of sack of shit throws that out?
The screaming canine kind.
It wasn't in the trash or anything, just sitting on the sidewalk. People put stuff like that out on the street all the time here. If I hadn't grabbed it, someone else would have picked it up within half an hour. Every time I go for a walk in my neighbourhood, I see boxes full of loot to grab. The weather has been nice and it's the end/start of the month, so there's even more stuff than usual. A couple of days ago, there was a box full of audio equipment and cables, and some sort of photo enlarging machine a few doors down. I scored a few cables that I needed and took them to my house, and when I went back out shortly afterwards, everything else was gone.
It's great. Whenever I have oddball shit I don't want, I just put it out front and next thing you know, it's gone.
If I lived in your neighborhood I would jizz all over my stuff before I put it on the curb.
I am officially done working at Gamestop and leaving for Santa FE, NM on sunday. Pretty excited to be getting back out West and working at the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops.
I just made two beautiful fruit trays to incorporate into a speech I'm making tomorrow (today?) Will I bribe my instructor and class into giving me a better grade? You betcha.
Broken glass is a good deterrent as well.Quote:

To add to this week, I sold a 24x36 print to my ASM at Gamestop. Gave him a really damn good deal (100$), but nice to make the sale. Also sold a few 12x18 prints today at a small, local art show. Should cover at least have the gas I will need driving to Santa Fe.
Sure should.Quote:

It's been a hectic 3 days since I had to rush Gracie to the vet when she fainted and had a seizure, but she's doing great today. I just brought her home, gave her the new insulin, and she's pretty much back to normal - eating, purring, and...well, doing nothing. Usual day for my Gracie girl.
22 beers was a great idea. Maybe ai can make it 2 bakers dozens before I pass out.
You're disgusting.
We're coming up on 1pm here and I'm about to open my first beer of the day. It's been a long time since I drank while it was daylight out, and there really is something to be said for it.
This is the first time I've ever taken Hydrocodone when I wasn't so sick that I couldn't appreciate it.
Feels good man. Toothache abated and then some.
Come join me on my Odyssey. I'm going to lick the sky.
Yeah. That's about how I feel today.Quote:

I completed my first Autocross race event yesterday. I got a qualifying time, didn't place DFL (Dead Fucking Last) out of 80 drivers who have done this before, and cut significant time off of each run I did. I also got to see some pretty awesome cars tear up the course. Definitely doing this again.
I made it about 2 years between my last blackout drunk night and last night. I predict it'll be at least 3 more before the next.Quote:

I'm taking all of the sexual tension out on my wife tonight and she will love it.

So if you drink a six pack in an hour, you're a lot worse off than somebody drinking six beers over six hours. That dude is basically breaking even, where as you're a bit drunk.
I'm surprised if 13 Beers Brisco even got buzzed.
Nah, just realized.Quote:

Brisco the lightweight confirmed.
To be fair I couldn't do that shit nowadays and come out without a horrible hangover.
Not really buzzed.Quote:

I'm drunk and I'll be able to sleep at least 8 hours. This is very far from my current norm.
Drunk sleep /= Good sleep.
Sometimes it is, if I'm feeling nice and I lay down and the room feels like it's sort of spinning, I'll sleep like a baby. Any more/less and it's bad times.
It's fun. A LOT of fun. I only wish I had started sooner.Quote:

Oh, I also moved a queen size bed up a narrow ass spiral staircase. Productive day.
now sell me your music.
Am I gonna have to buy this one?
The 9 hours of drunk sleep I got last night sure beat the previous 12 hours of sleep I had had since Monday (the total for all three days).Quote:

If all goes well, starting in August I will be paying $250/mo in rent for a wonderful shithole of a house that is about 1600 square feet, which I will be sharing with two other people. Much more spacious than the 550 square feet I am sharing with one other person right now.
I'm using the bloody mary recipe Josh posted here a while back. Tastes good.
:tu:
Man, the music scene in this city sure does rule.
If my rent was only $250...Quote:

This was the first real settled-in weekend in the new apartment. Had good dinner. Found a nice component-supporting SD CRT for 20 bucks at Goodwill so I can play PS2 and light gun games again. Very relaxed weekend.
With these bills in mind, my wife and I pay nearly $1,000 each.Quote:

can't be too bad. I don't see bars on the neighbors house.
It looks alright to me. Unless there's frequent street drug dealing and shootings, it's not really a "bad" neighborhood.
Start my new job at the Santa Fe Photographic workshops today. Really looking forward to it, and am pretty glad to be working in something I really love doing.

Is that still in Gainesville? That looks like a Gainesville place!
First day at the new job was pretty great. Really great group of people and all we do is talk photography. Well, when the workshops start there will be a lot of responsibility and long days, but at least it is dealing with photography.
To make my day even better, I found out that at least a couple of my images from when I was in the workshop last October are being used in the upcoming catalog/brochure. not sure how much I get yet, but it is at least a couple of hundred dollars.
Give it a few months and that same post will be in the What's Bugging You thread.
Yes, it's in Gainesville. A few blocks from downtown, and within walking distance of the smuggest coffee shop.Quote:

I will miss her declarations of "Holy Moses!" and "Judas Priest!" whenever something struck her as being surprising, which was usually every ten minutes or so.

Great job BRi!
Just bought myself a new pair of blue sneakers. I was tempted to buy a grey pair and a black pair with blue accents but I reigned myself in. Gotta make it through the fall / spring with no income so I can't go too off the deep end on a shopping whim.
Why the lack of income? Is your employment seasonal or are you just taking off for that time? If I remember correctly, you have/had a pretty decent job.
Yeah, what's that about, drew?
Don't you run a bunch of side businesses too?
Sabbatical?

I made a cranberry vodka that's heavy as fuck on the vodka.
