Lunch

We went to Buffalo General Hospital today. Pretty good food. Including what was apparently an 18" steak egg roll.

Flu

I thought my stomach was tied up in knots due to stress, turns out it's the stomach flu. If only all things were as easy to solve as just waiting a couple days.

Freaking Out

I'm forcing myself to take today off. I was so busy all week, I've got 100 unread messages in my inbox and a million things to do, but I'm refusing to do anything today. Trying to relax. I used to party and slack off and stay out all night, and that was about it - the entire story of my early 20's.

Now I freak out about everything and can't stop to take a day off from work and am always panicked about not getting enough done. Lame. And counterproductive, I just get burned out and can't work all day every day anyways, so what's the point of going to extremes? So I'm sitting here trying to breath and read a book. And posting on (e:strip). Wish me luck :)

On another note thanks for stopping by the pot luck everyone! I didn't do much except pick a date, and you all come through with delicious food and some great conversation. You all are the reason for its success. Cheers!

jameslindley.com

Wahoo!

I just bought jameslindley.com - someone let it expire! I've had jimlindley.com for a long time but jameslindley.com was tantalizingly out of reach.

Actually it expired a few weeks ago and someone snapped it up before I could, and then asked me to pay them $250 for it. But I declined. And they must have cancelled their order, because tonight it was mysteriously available again. For just $10. Yippee!

Holiday Dinner: in Two Days!

Don't forget that Thursday is the (e:strip) holiday dinner / pot luck, this Thursday at around 7pm! 24 Linwood right off North Street in Buffalo.

Don't sign up on this journal, sign up here, on the official news journal about the potluck. That journal's comments tell of what others have already signed up to bring. It's OK to come last minute, and if you don't know what to bring or if there is some problem with bringing something just send me a message and we'll work something out, don't worry.

Previous (e:strip) dinners have had 16 or more people show up, so it should be a great time. You can also sign up for the (e:strip) secret santa at the dinner, if you haven't already. I'll also have a box out to collect canned goods for the food bank, if you think to bring some to donate.

Cash Money

I never have any paper money on me anymore. Just always use a debit card. If I have $20 in my pocket, it's a rare thing. But, last week someone paid me for some work in cash.

If I got a check for $500, it would have been totally unremarkable. Just put it in the bank and not thought about it, but seeing all these 20's, 50's and 100's is kind of shocking. I don't think I've ever carried this much cash in my pocket at once.

I went and deposited it this morning, I was so tempted with thoughts of going wild, out to dinner, out shopping, etc, etc. Or go buy drugs or hookers. It also made me feel like I'd done something wrong and was going to get arrested. Weird psychological reaction to cash. Glad it's out of my pocket. Now it'll go towards the gas bill, rent, and food like it needs to so I don't end up homeless :)

metalpeter writes at 10:38:13 12/09/07 - Comment #29043: On a serious note about money for a second. Yes banks are good and are safe and insured. That being said everyone should have some cash stored some place that only they know where it is, for the just incase something something happens that prevents you from getting money from the bank like say the Hoover dam and the falls power plant are both taken and we lose all power or something along those lines. The thing about debit cards is that they are great but they also increase spending. First of all you can spend 24 hours a day and don't have to worry that if you run out of cash how will you get to the bank. But what they also do is change the feel of having money. When you work a week and are handed cash or a check that you cash. You are more careful with that money. I drop $500 in the snow next person who comes along it is theirs. Now with a check they can get it cashed but that is breaking a law or two. Also when you hand that money over for a PS3 and maybe a game, it like wow I did a lot of work for this so it makes you think about it every time you buy something. But with checks being direct deposited you never feel or smell that cash so when you spend all that money you don't even think about it really. But there are some places where you really do need cash like drugs, strippers, and hookers. Hey maybe I should find a nice stripper do date who doesn't do lap dances but still has lots of cash. Oh Forgot one other place you need cash in Rap Videos.

It was great!

paul writes at 11:05:23 12/08/07 - Comment #29033: I love cash more than more than checks or electronic money. One of our tenants pays there rent in six $100 bills each month. Its fun going to the store 6 times and whipping out a hundred.
