Diet Coke
I’m always drinking a Diet Coke with my lunch and I mentioned to one of the guys in my new-hire class how I don’t really like drinking Aspartame, but it’s addicting and I crave it. He told me I s...
Can't Sleep
I gave into the urge to take a nap after work today and now I am wide awake at 12:45am. It’s week 3 of the 8 weeks of orientation classes that my new job is making me go through and it’s wearing ...
Home
I opened the door to my house and stood there for a minute with my mail in my hand. It was so quiet and desolate. A car passed by behind me on my residential street with a slight muffler leak and...
Socks
I’ve made attempts in the past to try and standardize my socks. Eventually different types of socks start to trickle back in. That’s okay though. It’s nice to have a few different styles to choo...
Brain Things
I may have had what might be considered somewhat of an epiphany today. Another day of not being very productive has left me continuing to ponder: What has gotten into me? The past month and a hal...

F*CK
I love reading self-help books. Even when they don’t pertain to the type of help you’re seeking, there always seems to be some valuable insight that you can apply to your life. There seems to be...
Steel
I completed my first course on edx.org today. It was: Introduction to steel, which is super relevant to the type of work I do. It was a short course. It only took a few hours to complete, but the...
Better Sleep
About a year ago I started wearing a CPAP machine to bed. I didn’t get it from a doctor. I could tell I needed it without any sort of medical evaluation. Besides the incredibly loud snoring, peop...
Traveling Solo
The better I get at traveling - the more traveling by myself has seemed to change from a ‘last resort’ to my preference. I remember my Dad was in between jobs once and he spent almost all of his...
Being Unemployed
I was laid off from work a couple months ago when the plant I was working at closed down. This experience has really changed my perspective a lot on people who are unemployed. If you’re single l...
