March 4, 2010

This is the start of a new online journal. I've not kept a journal of any kind since 1999, before I moved to Athens. Make of that what you will. This is basically a record of the incredibly mundane events of my daily life and not for public consumption. So, if you find yourself here for any reason and decide to keep reading, good for you. I'm not one to judge. Because nothing on the internet ever disappears, I will use pseudonyms and codes for different things

To start, let's determine where we are. It's March 5, 2010, and I am 34 years old. I am still single, childless, and more or less lack direction in my life. I live in New Orleans on Dumaine St. in the French Quarter, and I've been here since December. I work at a French Quarter restaurant and, for what it's worth, I don't mind it, such as it is. My parents and the bulk of my family are still in Peaceful Valley, and my brother lives in Athens with his girlfriend. Anyhow, here we go.

Woke up around 10 this morning and actually got out of bed around noon. Draggier than usual today, probably because I stayed out until 3 a.m. the night before at Cosimo's. The bartenders know me now, which is nice. I suppose. Watched "The Edge of Destruction", the third serial of the first season of "Doctor Who" today. Wasn't bad, though Carol Ann Ford overacted horribly. Had work tonight with the Bossman and Snoop. Pretty slow tonight, and I spent the evening prepping jambalaya and ribs. I trained the New Girl, but she split around seven or so. Said "something happened" with her young'un. Way the Bossman talked, that's all she for wrote for New Girl. Oh well. Snoop was friendly, continuing that trend. Why, I don't know, but there ya go.

After work, I went to Cosimo's and drank a few while reading a chapter of The Templar Revelation. On the way home, I visited with a pair of beagle dogs in someone's front yard. And that's about the long and short of it.

 Yep.
