Work Time Already?


I don't really know why I like Teach: Tony Danza so much, but I look forward to it through the week more than most shows, which is interesting. I think it has something to do with just how vulnerable he is in that situation and it brings a lot of human issues and it's interesting to watch.

Today kind of felt crappy, it was slow, uneventful and dull. I did the laundry, but not until late in the afternoon, early evening. I watched Coraline... I didn't really do much else. Played a bit of StarCraft 2 with Ben during the early afternoon, then after dinner (pizza) the internet went down for a couple hours, so I just talked on the phone with Ben and watched a bit of Criminal Minds. Eventually the internet came back up, and Ben and I played a few more games until around 11:30 when I realized that I had to work tomorrow, and I should probably wind down, since I was pretty wound up from the games (they were pretty intense).

I slept in really late today, until maybe 12:00pm or something, pretty late, but I had stayed up until like 5:30am yesterday, so it was expected. I took a sleeping pill a half hour ago, so I don't really feel it right now, but I also have a headache, so relaxing isn't really an option at the moment. I'm just watching Teach, trying to feel tired and feel like I want to sleep.

I'm not really sure what's in store for me tomorrow at work, I know Rickman is in, I know that Jeff is in... but I don't know what events are on, or if I'll actually get off work on time to get to the grocery store or get home to eat a normal dinner and feel normal and okay.

I could go on but... specific topics are escaping me at the moment.

super edit @ 12:16am

So like I've mentioned previously here, I've been really wishing I had a project to work on, something to work on for a long period of time when I'm not doing anything, like playing SC2 or watching specific TV shows. I like to have something to code, specifically, at times, because it helps me feel focused and accomplished.

I've been thinking and thinking of different things I could do, even talked with Ben about working together on a game programmed in Java, and have gone over all the old projects I've done to see if I'd want to rewrite them or anything. Recently I redesigned the layout of this website, and in the end I didn't even prefer the new design and just use this old one (the legacy version). So I will eventually need to re-write this page, but keep the layout, which is a huge project, and it's not really tickling my fancy.

Writing this longish entry made me think that working on this specific aspect of the website might be an option. It's a portion that none of you ever get to see, it's where I log in to and actually write the entries. It works well enough, so you may ask, why fix what ain't broke as they say, well... because I wrote the code for it like... five years ago, so it's sloppy and not designed well, and I know I could rewrite it to be much better. I'm not sure if there is anything I'd like to add specifically, but I may think of a few before I commit to actually fixing it up.

I've also been brainstorming tons of Java applications as well, but none have really excited me too much. I wanted to create an application that Ben and I could use to trigger a "available to play" status that only him and myself could see and use. I've thought about making a program that would download my whole exrambling database and have all my entries offline to edit and update and look through, and there are more.

Think that's about it for now, feeling really tired.
