Countdown

  • Mood: Shame
  • Listening to: Newly loaded songs on my iPod
  • Reading: Generation Kill
  • Watching: Weeds Season 3
  • Eating: Taco Bell eats
  • Drinking: Mountain Dew
Only days away from my trip to the Philippines. I leave on Friday. Thankfully I have the entire Labor Day weekend to make my final arrangements. I feel shameful since I had to move back into a house that I own w/ my ex-wife[yes, finally she delivered the coup de grace]. I was only able to secure a month pass w/ a friend of mine. I truly hope that the 2.5 months of non-daily interaction w/ her will have prepared me for the 1.5 months before we sell the house. I just wish I didn't have to be here. I'll do my utmost to be out and about until bedtime each day. I'm sure that'll prove to be difficult. But I have several ideas on how to handle that.

RE: My promotion. I applied for a promotion at work, and received it! HOT damn, huh? I thought so. Many people in the company approve of the decision by management too. Odd. I still get a pat on the back or a congratulations + a "you'll do good" / "you'll be great". I sure hope so. It's been the one positive event in my life in the past 5 months.

RE: Eastside Camera Club. Awhile ago, I applied for the position of VP for the camera club I signed up for. I'm hoping that'll elevate my photographic skill set to another level ;) Eh - one can only hope, right?

Until next time, keep digging.

Let's Dance

The other week, I was driving to my 2 nd job at Malarky’s Sports Grill. Wednesday to be exact. I noticed a man standing at a bus sign waiting for a bus. I recognized the man right away. It was Kenny, The Dancing Wild Man of Factoria. It’d been a minute since I’ve seen him on the streets of Issaquah, I was growing concerned that something awful happened to him. I was thankful to find him once again, and within the same area I “met” him the first time… hilarious story. I remember distinctively. It was my first summer I spent in Issaquah. The sun was out, so relatively warm. I was bombing around in the Sapphire Sled [an arctic blue, 2004 Acura RSX Type S] with the windows down, the tunes up. I was stopped at the traffic light on the corner of Front Street and NW Gilman Blvd; the busiest intersection. From out-the-cuts, I heard someone screaming! I pull off my shades immediately. I whip my head around trying to seek out the source of the noise. I turn down the radio as I desper...

Manic Monday, Terrible Tuesday, Wonderful Wednesday, Throwback Thursday, and Finally Friday

What a roller coaster week I have had! To start off the week was a manic Monday. After work on Monday , I did a WinCo run with WCP. Always entertaining. Tuesday was terrible. Started off by being tardy for work, so I treated myself to Tully's before posting up. And... in my experience, when you start off a day like that, any attempt to speed up or make up that half-step, half-tick, never happens. For inexplicable reason, you are now out-of-step with the Universe, and like fucking hell you're gonna make it back up. Never. Fails. I was late to meetings, I was late to a gym class I'm regularly early for, and the list goes on. In fact, I decided on that day instead of seeking out my dream girl of a svelte body, superior intelligence, endless energy, and with a litany of characteristics to make any fairy godmother proud I made the wide-sweeping declaration that I wanted this instead. A 2-ton, yoga pants wearing, 45 year old, bitter, divorcee that is one more named cat f...

End of an Era

UPDATE: 1-17-2019 I purchased my own domain of Carlos Bayne, so please follow my blog posts by click on this link here . I was haphazardily introduced to another blog site, Tumblr, because a friend on Facebook moved a thread to an account titled: I Heart Gary. I am able to blog each component of my life instead of having one blog and having to search through it. I realize it's an end of an era, but it must done. You can find my posts now at ...
