August 13, 2015

 Waking up at six o'clock this morning sucked major balls but I did it. And I ran on the elliptical for about fifteen minutes before I had to get ready for the district meeting. It was nice getting to see everyone again and I don't think the meeting was as bad as last year. I'd have to go back and read what I wrote about last year's meeting, and I won't, so I'm just going to assume it wasn't as bad. It was still longer than it should have been with too many personal stories and boring stories that I don't care about. It was also a literal pain in the neck because we were off to one side of the stage and all the speakers were standing at the podium on the other side of the stage. Happens every year but I always forget about it until we sit down and we're ten minutes in. Such is life. I survived.

After the meeting I cleaned my computer desk and the desk in my room. We'll see how long the desk in my room stays clean. It tends to be a place where I inevitably stack things. I did all that before lunch and after lunch I vacuumed the entire basement. People who vacuum on a daily basis have my kudos. It's a real shoulder workout.

That was the extent of my productivity today. Still not sure about the CDs but I do need to move all my tools up to the garage. Maybe tomorrow.

In my cleaning up I found the old writing tablet I bought years ago during one of my drawing phases. I hooked it up to my computer and I spent quite awhile before and after dinner using it to work on my new signature. It looks cool using the calligraphy brush in Paint.

Tonight I watched the Neebs livestream and made a wallpaper for my sister. She sent me a picture of a button that said “Hope you like my new recipe. They're called shut the fucupcakes.” I might end up making my own version of the button and giving it to her for her birthday but for tonight I just made the wallpaper. I found a light green background with little cupcakes on it, I downloaded a cute font and layered it a few times, and then I put a cute cupcake in the middle. I think it turned out pretty well. I liked it well enough that it is now the wallpaper for one of my monitors.


It is now almost midnight and I am watching the second episode of Daredevil. The first episode was good but all the bad guys were making references to big picture stuff and I had no clue what was going on. It almost felt like I had missed an episode. Or maybe I need to me more versed in the comics. I imagine as the season goes on more will be revealed but they definitely throw you into the deep end right off the bat. I'm going to finish the second episode and then I'm going to go to bed. And hopefully sleep in.
