It took me an entire hour to get home.
If I had made that statement during the drive, there wouldn't be enough #*%&#'s to contain my displeasure. I've determined that going home "early," if it's not before 4:00, is a complete and utter waste of time. Whoever's in charge of infrastructure needs to be sacked immediately. There's absolutely no reason for the county to start construction on all major streets from Lincoln to Grand at the same time.
The worst thing about all this? The roadwork started on the very first day of my job. What kind of awful timing is this? I seriously feel the urge to kill something because of all this latent rage that's been building up. I'm not even gonna go home anymore. What's the point?
I'm a man of solutions and that means I won't be jumping into this nonsense again. I think it's time to dust off the Vita and do some gaming on the go. I've been waiting for the perfect opportunity to whip it out because I sure as hell ain't playing it when the PS4 is next to me.
I've been listening to a lot of Christian rock lately. I tend to tune out the copious mentions of God and Jesus and focus on the music. Since I've been going to church every Sunday for the last twenty years of my life, my affinity for gospel sound shouldn't be surprising. I find a lot of it catchy, and more importantly, there's a distinct absence of club influence or dubstep. I guess autotune and religion don't mix well. That's fine by me. I always prefer legit instruments to whatever synthesized sound is popular these days.
There's still too many things I need to figure out, like the most optimal route to work and back. I'm playing it by ear. I've found a good solution for the moment, but I want to lock it down. I also need a go-to for lunch, because I'm not eating Panda Express every day. I need variety, cheaper options, and healthier choices.
I'll probably take hour long lunches from now on because I hate rushing through my meal and leaving thirty minutes earlier doesn't mean much when traffic is crap for two straight hours. My workplace doesn't have wi-fi so chilling around there doesn't make sense either. I spotted a Starbucks in the plaza near my workplace. Perhaps I should hang out there after work from now on?
I don't know. I probably won't lock anything down until after a month, and by then, I'll be too busy eating turkey for Thanksgiving to care. As long I've got enough time to ramble on in these Event Logs, I should be in good shape.
