Weather

The weather never seems to cooperate with my free time.  Was going to location scout of sorts for a place to try and take pictures for a poster.  No Dice it's raining and it's the kind of rain that you know even if it stopped the mugginess would just be completely unbearable.

So then what to do today?

I'm thinking I'll be watching a bunch of DIY GoPro vids  perhaps attempt to make a couple different rigs in the coming months?  Really depends on the budgeting and free time though.

Also need to make a decision regarding the route I'm going to take I'm really thinking the North is the way to go, though I wonder now if maybe there isn't a third even better route.  Either way I grow more concerned about my car.  I'm pretty sure it's just me being paranoid, last night there was apparently a faint skunk odor as I was headed home but I was swearing up and down it was my car making the smell.  Stupid things like that keep gnawing at me. Then there are of course the real car issues.  The crack in the glass, is it going to grow randomly while I'm driving forcing me to fix it on the road?  It's got a patch on it so that should be it, again paranoia.  The transmission doesn't work in OD, it's an 00 Mustang it starts with OD on and you have to manually turn it off or at some point the Check Engine light comes on and it'll rev freely (like in neutral). Transmission repairs are expensive and I've no desire to put that much money into this car.

Yeah guess this is kinda important too.  I've passed all of my required classes, gotten all of my required credits so unless there is another clerical error I'll be graduated a week from now.  A clerical error was already brought to my attention some bureaucrat had me scheduled to take Fall classes, why I do not know.  I have no interest in the pageantry of the thing though I won't be walking.  My Grandmother wouldn't likely be able to make it, or remember it.  I feel like my Dad and brother wouldn't really be into it.  Maybe my sister would? I don't know.  Seems like a waste of time.  I had no desire to walk for High School seems like a lot of money down the drain actually, the only reason I did that was for my mother.  She's not here so no need to walk, I think I can spend the money better on other things.

One of my buddies was talking about Thank You notes and I was kind of wondering the point there too.  I mean I have two professors probably that I think really deserve thank you notes, maybe three.  Other than that the only people that deserve them I feel I should wait until I leave for L.A. and even then it's a small number of people like under 10.  Most of those ridiculous card packs (don't see the point in those either I can buy a decent stock paper at Staples and the sentiment is the same) come in sizes far to large for the amount of people I'd need to thank.  I mean sure you thank people for support and advice (again a small number for me) but I did all the actual work.  I think I'll thank the people here in no particular order (as well as elsewhere and in my own way); Jeff Redefer, Don Flournoy, Roger Cooper the teachers who really helped me get in and advised along the way. Thom and Marianne Williams, Angie Marks, and Key for the money and time spent with my bitching.  Adam Wetzel for giving me a second job which is allowing me to sleep a little more comfortable for the next 4 months.  Lolo, Jason Flood, Corey Strunk, Alan Donaville and Steve Brodbeck for letting me vent, encouragement, and contributions to The Road Ahead.  My family for making sure I never went hungry, got evicted, or run out of gas.

Well work is getting in the way so I gotta run as always Like, Click, Share
