March 31, 2017 (Fri)

Drinking - no.  "No" barely wins this time around, 16 to 15.  However, I am encouraged that this is Friday--traditional drinking day.  And it's been six days in a row.  Who knows?

Paid work - a bunch, lots of driving.  Good paycheck today too.

Creative work - nothing.  But I'm replacing the second desk--the one I have is small and crowded.  Maybe that will help.  Again...who knows?

See you tomorrow.

March 30, 2017 (Thurs)

Drinking - no.  All tied up.

Paid work - not bad. 

Creative work - none, but I'm starting to feel the urge.

See you tomorrow.

March 29, 2017 (Wed)

Drinking - no.  I believe that puts the score at 14 (no) and 15 (yes).

Paid work - some.  Not bad.  More driving than I really wanted, but there you are.

Creative work - nothing really.  Played with electronics, but no product produced.

See you tomorrow.

March 28, 2017 (Tues)

Drinking - no.

Paid work - quite a lot, lots of driving.

See you tomorrow.

Monday, March 27, 2017

March 27, 2017 (Mon)

Drinking - no.  I think this makes the score no (12) to yes (15).

Paid work - quite a lot, divided over the day.

Creative work - none.

See you tomorrow.

Sunday, March 26, 2017

March 26, 2017 (Sun)

Drinking - no.

Paid work - a bunch.  Very tiring.

Creative work - nothing really,  played with electronics for a bit.  Fun!

See you tomorrow.

Saturday, March 25, 2017

March 25, 2017 (sat)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - system maintenance, and some paid work for a friend.  Kind of hate that, but money is needed.

Creative work - just some more PhotoShop stuff, and playing with audio recording stuff.  Nothing really concrete.

See you tomorrow.

Friday, March 24, 2017

March 24, 2017 (Fri)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - almost nothing

Creative work - some PhotoShop stuff, hardly worth mentioning.

See you tomorrow.

Thursday, March 23, 2017

March 23, 2017 (Thurs)

Drinking - yes. 

Paid work - only a little.  Worrying.

Creative work - nothing much.  Some PhotoShop stuff, some watching Lynda videos on Maya.  Starting to feel the urge, so that's good.  Hope it goes somewhere.

See you tomorrow.

Wednesday, March 22, 2017

March 22, 2017 (Wed)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - some.  Not a lot.  But some.

Creative work - no.  Maybe that's dead now.  I bought some kitty litter.  I may be enslaved again soon.

See you tomorrow.

March 21, 2017 (Tues)

Drinking - no.

Paid work - no.  A bit alarming.

Creative work - not really.  An old synthesizer isn't working, trying to repair that.

Lost power last night from about 7:30 or so to 3:30 in the morning, hence this late appearance.

See you...later today.

Saturday, March 18, 2017

March 18, 2017 (Sat)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - nothing really.  System maintenance stuff, the same thing every weekend.

Creative work - just a bit.  Made a tiny bit for "Joy" part one.  It bothered me.  So.

Not sure it counts...yet.

See you tomorrow.

Friday, March 17, 2017

March 17, 2017 (Fri)

Drinking - yes.  Well, it had to happen.  Friday and all that.

Paid work - some, with lots of frustration, and lots of driving.

Creative work - nothing much.  In other words, nothing to write home about.

See you tomorrow.

Thursday, March 16, 2017

March 16, 2017 (Thurs)

Drinking - no.  Yeah, I was surprised too.

Paid work - a bunch.  Exhausting for the most part.

Creative work - nothing really.  Some PhotoShop silliness.

See you tomorrow.

Wednesday, March 15, 2017

March 15, 2017 (Wed)

Drinking - yes.  Cascading frustrations.

Paid work - not much, but some.  No worries, as they say.

Creative work - some PhotoShop stuff.  Nothing major, but nice to flex the muscles now and then.  I really hope there's no correlation between drinking and creativity.  I guess we'll find out.

See you tomorrow.

March 14, 2017 (Tues)

Drinking - no.  That means we're all even.  7 yes to 7 no.  A dangerous time.

Paid work - a bunch, with a lot of driving.  Exhausting, but good for the finances.

Creative work - nothing.  Thinking about sound work, but as I said yesterday, thinking is not doing.  Still, I would rather not be drinking than creative.  And tonight, the final "drinking movie," "Man of Steel" was watched sober.  I think that was the last of them.

See you tomorrow.

March 13, 2017 (Mon)

Drinking - no.  Sometimes it's easy after one dry night.  But it always comes back.

Paid work - a bunch, with a lot of driving.

Creative work - nothing.  Just haven't felt the urge, and all current projects are in a state where I don't want to touch them.  Some thoughts on abstract videos, but thinking isn't doing.

See you tomorrow.

Sunday, March 12, 2017

March 12, 2017 (Sun)

Drinking - no.

Paid work - no.  It's Sunday.

Creative work - nothing.  Took back the mixer I bought.

Saturday, March 11, 2017

March 11, 2017 (Sat)

Drinking - yes. 

Paid work - no.  It's Saturday, so no.

Creative work - did some work on the self-portrait thing.  Also bought an audio mixer and did some testing with that.  Tried to set up a nice audio workstation, and so far so good.  In other words, nothing much.  Listening to a lot of Nico records, they are very depressing.

See you tomorrow.

March 10, 2017 (Fri)

Drinking - yes.  Hell, it's Friday.  Tried to resist, but this is really the only day I can.  We'll see what happens tomorrow.  I am hoping the bit of resistance I mustered will come into play.  On the other hand...

Paid work - Eh.  I've had worse. 

Creative work - not much.  Working on a "self-portrait" for the group.  Keeps me going.

See you tomorrow.

Thursday, March 9, 2017

March 9, 2017 (Thurs)

Drinking - yes.  Gotta figure this out.

Paid work - only a bit.

Creative work - some thinking, but nothing produced.

See you tomorrow.

Wednesday, March 8, 2017

March 8, 2017 (Wed)

Drinking - no.  That makes 4 yes, 4 no.  Making this kind of a dangerous time.  Funny, I decided to watch a movie that I always drink to, and stayed sober.  We'll know more tomorrow.

Paid work - some.  Not much, but some.

Creative work - none.  No juice in the pipe.  Not worried too much.

See you tomorrow.

Tuesday, March 7, 2017

March 7, 2017 (Tues)

Drinking - no.  One more day of this and we'll be tied, 4-4.

Paid work - a lot, an entire day in fact.

Creative work - none.  Just not feeling a yen for anything.

See you tomorrow.

Monday, March 6, 2017

March 6, 2017 (Mon)

Drinking - no.  As I've said, I don't know the whys.  I even went to the grocery store at night, even went through the beer aisle, and wasn't even tempted. 

Paid work - yes, quite a bunch.

Creative work - none.  The Flash project drained me, so I'm not worried about a few days off.

See you tomorrow.

Sunday, March 5, 2017

March 5, 2017 (Sun)

Drinking - no.  First time this month, I believe.

Paid work - nope.

Creative work - I think I'm going to put the Flash project to one side.  I wrote a script for the rest of the story, but that was all.

See you tomorrow.

Saturday, March 4, 2017

March 4, 2017 (Sat)

Drinking - of course, what did you expect.

Paid work - system maintenance.

Creative work - nothing.  I need a new project.  The Flash thing, the Current P_project, is killing me.

Don't know what to do.

Maybe tomorrow.

See you then.

Friday, March 3, 2017

March 3, 2017 (Fri)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - a bunch.  Rather tiring, but the money should be good.

Creative work - nothing.

See you tomorrow.

Thursday, March 2, 2017

March 2, 2017 (Thurs)

Drinking - yes.

Paid work - a little.

Wednesday, March 1, 2017

March 1, 2017 (Wed)

Drinking - yes.  Great way to start the month, yes.

Paid work - a nice chunk.  Not great, but not bad.  More tomorrow, it is hoped.  Last paycheck was fine, but I need better than fine.

Creative work - nothing.  I'm starting to think that the latest project is draining me of my will to proceed. 

See you tomorrow.
