Well, another day off and I did a lot of relaxing things.

I slept in until 7:30. Saw the moon in the morning sky and took a really good picture of it. I had a really good breakfast from the package my parents mailed to me! Yay for waffles and bacon, with blueberry syrup! I went out and got postcards for another Dailybooth.com postcard exchange. I finally got the chance to sit (or stand?) and play on the Wii. I took more photos outside and uploaded them to Flickr. And I helped one of my best friends, with help from her boyfriend, out with her video problem.

Then Christine came home. We had a small argument that got me depressed, but we worked it out and we’re fine. Took me a little longer to get out of the depression, but I did it! I’m writing and relaxing after catching up on DB and uploading pictures to Flickr, and she’s exercising. Things are going better for us with counseling and we’re communicating better.

All in all, a pretty decent day. Not the best, but certainly not the worst! Let’s hope things continue to get better, shall we? =)

Not much in the mood to write, but I have to since I promised myself a blog post a day.

Yesterday and today has been kinda interesting. Last night, some repo guy came to our house to repossess a car I never owned. What a shock this was! This is courtesy of Fireside Bank, whom I’ve dealt with a few times on mistaken identity. I’ve never done business with them. They’re famous, I guess from what I’ve researched, for doing skip tracing and trying to get money from anyone they can. Well, this guy showed me the paper. It had my middle name wrong and the wrong social security number, so they accepted my explanation. I’m still going to call that bank tomorrow and pitch a major fevor with them. Get me off that list!

Work is going stressful, but not as bad as it could be, thank God! Going through some rough times, but they understand that I’m just one person and I’m getting help where needed. Still, some work is piling up for the sake of other duties and it sucks when you can’t get everything done like you’re used to doing.

On top of all this “meh” feeling, I had a conversation with a great friend that unexpectedly hurt their feelings. And that hurts me very much to know that. What is wrong with me lately!? I’m just batting 1.000 here, aren’t I?

Anyways, I’m going to try and eat dinner. Tomorrow is another new day, right? At least it’s a day off for rest.

Today was a draining day for me. The other days before this were draining as far as personal drama goes. None of that happened today, thank God! Today was only draining as far as work goes. I’m under a lot of pressure right now, this time of year. I’m taking it well (sometimes venting to Twitter, hehe!) and at home, I always take some time to de-stress and think and be alone with my mind for a bit before doing anything productive or online. Photography always helps me with stress lately. So, here I am, with another attempt at a portrait pic.

The pic was shot with a Fuji Finepix S2000HD, edited using iPhoto on Mac and PhotoFX iPhone app.

My 365 Project is going well so far. One picture (anything relating to the day or whatever), one short video, and one blog entry. Sometimes, two of any of these keep me in the habit. You can see my progress here: http://chrisw357.tumblr.com/

Speaking of photography, check out the collection of pics I did in the last two days: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisw357/collections/72157623140974758/

If you want to, tell me what you think. Give some criticism, or whatever.

Pets can sense when something is wrong with who they love. When Thommen saw me laying here, he sat on my chest and looked at me closely. He only does this when he knows something is wrong. Yes… This whole day was just wrong. :(

My wife snapped this pic today. And she’s a sweetheart for doing so.
