A few more things

I hate my accounting course. I cant wait to get back to things that matter. Such as, well, not learning anything! I really only enjoy learning when it's connected to a hobby. Something that I want to do as an amateur.

Professionalism has never really been my forte. I am starting to wonder what I am good at. This is almost certainly the beginning of an early midlife crisis.

Here is a list of things I am bad at:

Sports - All of them. As much as I want to be athletic, I just dont have it

Maths - I am shuddering at the thought of having maths be such a large part of my everyday
life. My father in law laughed whent I told him I couldnt do long division. I realy can't

Playing guitar - If I played a song and someone said, that sounds good, how long have you been playing? If I told them the real length of time I had actually been playing, I think they might just laugh out loud.

Driving - I am a terrible driver. Whilst I always use my mirrors, never stall, am always under the speed limit, I have awful aggresion when I get behind the wheel. I want to punish everyone else's mistakes. I think this comes from years of being a Yugo passenger.

Blogging - Lazy, workshy, Blogger. That's me.

Good things

Procrastinating - Seriously. If this was an Olympic sport, I'd be on a cereal box in China.

Laundry - I am on top of the laundry. WORD.

Taking a bath - Can you be good at bathing? I think I am.

Now if I could find employment that harnessed my skills, I think I might be on to something.

Adventures in Professional Sporting Events.

At the request of Stav, I decided to have a little blog in between periods of hockey.

I managed to see the San Jose sharks twice this month! I got to seem them hammer St. Louis, and pull off a dramatic Over time win against Dallas last night. One of the new guys at my work is a huge hockey fan, so we got tickets and cruised on down to the shark tank.

Last friday we got given tickets to see the Golden State Warriors play the Houston Rockets. Whilst I'm not a big basketball fan, I had an awesome time. We had great seats! Mandy teaches one of the assitant coaches for the warriors kid so he got us great seats.

Infact, tonight I had tickets for the a preason game between The giants and the A's, but we decided to give it a miss. The giants suck this year. That reminds me, how are Telford getting on I wonder?

Did you see this video?

I'm making a bunch of these to sell. I had a friend design me some ZX Spectrum themed graphics for the casing. Although, Spectrums never hit the states, so I'm not sure why I decided to go with that motif.

Also, I managed to fix this awesome vintage synthesizer a friend bought on ebay that didnt work.

What else has happened? I was in a band for a while called the Atomic Love Bombs. We played a couple of shows, but I wasn't a good fit for the band. Plus some of the guys were really not great musicians, but they had the money to fund their hobby.

Mandy started painting again, and I really want one of these for my birthday:
