I'm not gonna lie, time is whizzing by and I suck at writing consistently. MUST RECTIFY. Other than that not a whole lot interesting. Well, that is a lie, there is a lot interesting, but I am feeling lousy at work so can call little to mind.
Work is BORING. And yes, you may say that for everyone, but there are tasks in this world that are not boring to do. And by that understanding there must be work out there that isn't boring.
I wonder if I can get Meds to no be bored. I am finding myself SO bored it has stopped making sense. I sit watching a television show AND playing a video game AT THE SAME TIME, and I am still VERY BORED. It has stopped making sense. I used to be able to play a game and be entertained for hours, but now I play them to simply, grudgingly, pass the time. Granted there are things that entertain me. Some friends and I play unusual board games on occasion, and that entertains me. Interesting that Video Games don't so much though. Perhaps it is the social aspect? This will be an interesting concept to consider and experiment with. Perhaps I need social interaction to not be bored. The girl tells me she thinks I am an introvert, and I had thought to believe her due to her logic, but upon reflection with this information I am not so sure. I am bored by myself, and not bored around people. Hmmm. I intend to audition for a musical in the coming month so I feel that that might give me additional insight into what keeps me entertained. I do not recall being too bored while being in shows in the past. A bit listless while you must wait in the wings, but not bored in the "don't really have anything to do to entertain me" sort of way. Oh well, I find myself rambling a bit.
Tires. This is the current bain of my existence. Tires cost a TON of money. To get the pair I would ideally WANT would cost over 600$. TOO MUCH. And that is for 2, count them TWO tires. I only need 2 to pass vehicle inspection at this time. And granted there are alternative options. I have shopped around and the cheapest locally I can get them is about $280 installed from Costco. Not horrible, but still not so great. I could order them online, but after shipping and paying someone to install them for me it gets close to that $280 mark again. Especially since I am getting all weather tires, what with crazy uber snow this past year. Blah.
The other option open to me is getting USED tires. Now you may scoff, and I must admit my own skepticism initially, but I called them up and they said that they had the tires I wanted and could have me in and out the door in 20 minutes for 100$ flat. And they were the good tires too. I must admit though the person I spoke to spoke next to no English so some of this may have gotten lost in translation. I also called a different used tire place that quoted about 120$ in and out, so this price range holds relatively steady. Now granted I will swing by and check the tires myself to see how they stack up, but think about it. This was the logic presented to me and I am expanding on it. This is a rich area, so people would not necessarily think twice about getting 4 new tires if they get, say, 1 flat. Or perhaps they never rotate their tires on their front wheel drive car and consequently burn out 2 tires while the other 2 remain essentially new (as is with my car). So I will give it the benefit of the doubt and check it out tomorrow and see how it all stacks up.
Aside from that, been working out as usual, though I must say I feel as though I have been metaphorically lapped by my wife. She is doing, needless to say, a GREAT job with her regiment with serious results. So now I am re-evaluating what I had desired with my gym time, and think I need to create a better structure to get to the gym more regularly and hit certain machines in a repetitive nature. Also a little online research would not lead me astray.
Well, I guess back to work. This bi-week has not been the worst, but it has felt the longest. Blah. Off I go!

Boredom is not caused by external factors // its up to you to make the most of the present moment // supplementing with artificial distractions like video games and movies is just empty fulfillment, i think that the audition and potential play is a positive and wise direction. cheer up man :)
