What is Chris Doing?

I know, it is the question we all ask ourselves daily, some of us hourly.  So I created a website.  You can check it out at www.whatischrisdoing.com and have all of your questions answered.

This blog will no be only as an archive to the new blog on the webpage.  I hope you enjoy it.  I have some photos up I have taken over the years and will get some artwork up there soon.  

Take care.

I'm on the Interwebs.

Not sure if I am on the Google or not, but I'm on the Interwebber.  When I figure out how to move the blog, I will, and I will let you know.  

Nothing new today, but Tomorrow looks promising.  Why?  Its Friday and all of you knuckleheads that have to work will post on your Facebook something along the lines of , "Sweet Jesus Can't wait for 5 pm so I can get hammered, get up and get hammered again on Saturday, and have brunch with whomever on Sunday."  Nothing wrong with that, I just can't wait to do that myself.

Enjoy your Thursday.  Its nice out, I know, I went for a walk to Harbor East and back today.

I got a new computer and got heckled for it.

I know I updated my FB and such today regarding this, but since I am not being paid for the endorsement, I am going to refer to this new computer in a descriptive manner you will read about below. I was gently nudged to start drawing again by a pretty amazing person and have been on a rampage lately.  Not so much as putting things on paper, but more so in my mind. The old version of Illustrator and Photoshop no longer work (as well as I would like) on the Magic Box (its actual name and server ID). It is full of updates and such and to use more than 2 layers, and Im limited in the size of them as well, is a pain.  I wiped the thing clean twice, but hey, its now a back up.  

Anyway, back from my aversion of telling the story, I was heckled at the Mall for carrying a giant white box with a piece of gray fruit on the side.  I was, I am not making this up.  It was while I was riding the escalator to the second floor near the Verizon stand and the pretzel stand.  I parked in that lot (that is amazing to find a spot there as well, but I have a Bat Cave spot people don't think is a spot, but it is.  Thats what working at Sbarro in high school gets you) and a guy who is looking at phones at the Verizon stand said, "Someone thinks he is hot shit."  My reply was simple.  It was not to gloat my purchase, but rather to cause this guy whom I had absolutely no contact with to mull over this for the rest of the day.  I simply got off of the escalator, stopped, faced directly to him, and showed him all four sides of the box. I smiled and walked out the door to my car.  

On my way from Towson to White Marsh to return a pair of shoes, I realized that there is a crap ton of mold in the air and its about allergy time.  My face was divided in half with pain and tightness from my sinuses.  So bad that I went home, still motivated to run, and laid down.  I ended up napping for 2.5 hours.  Im still feeling like crap, but better than before, but my equilibrium is a bit off and makes standing suddenly a lot of fun.

I am building a website.  The domain name is www.whatischrisdoing.com and will be up within the week.  I registered with godaddy.com, so you will see that site until I have it up or part of it up or maybe just a picture of something.  I think Ill do that instead. I am transferring things over from the not so Magic Box which takes FOR-EVVVV-VER, but over time I will get it up so that you may contribute to it as well.  If you want to.

I haven't ranted about anything in a while, but here you go....
Tagging me in Facebook things like a collage of pictures so I will tag you.  If you want to know which stupid picture I would associate you to, ask me.  I will be honest, I will pick the most insulting one, simply because it would be funny.  As convenient as it may be or cute as it is sly, it is a pain in my ass.  I have the application on my phone, which I removed today, and I have email.  I HAVE 34 MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE I DO NOT KNOW COMMENTING ON PHOTOS THAT ARE OF JAPANESE CAT CARTOONS WITH MY NAME ON IT!!!!!!!  I will get you back, and it will not be a flattering photo.  Check my FB page and see which photos I add and PLEASE comment on them like 6 different times referring to something I have absolutely no idea as to what it pertains to.

So long Teeing off, hello suiting up for work.

Well, it is sooooo freaking nice out, I had to go to work today. I know, you all are thinking, "Ah, so do I," but I was off for six weeks. Six weeks! I want six more! Bush Tax Cuts are awesome, but the president wasn't, so go figure that as well as that is what I would have lived off of for another 4 months.

Everyone new was about 24-25. I felt old. Then I remembered to shut my mouth, keep straight, as I am going to crush them in numbers, cause that is what I do. I will save you money on your car insurance, so in 3 months, lets do lunch.

At lunch I ordered an Italian cold cut and asked for hots, lettuce and tomaters. I got fried onions and mayonnaise. Mayonnaise kills me, like knots my upper intestine and gives me pain kills me. I don't know what it is, the combination of oil and egg yolk maybe? I wiped the bread clean, the meat, scraped off the onions.....but it doesn't matter. Just a tiny bit gets me. That's why I fancy Miracle Whip. I go the lite version because it has less sour cream in it, less of that tangy zip, but vital for tuna salad sandwiches. So now I can kiss this beautiful day away and have to wait until around 5 or 6 so to run, thanks to some mayo. I know, TMI, but guess what? Its my blog, I'm writing it. And why didn't I just send the sandwich back? I tried. I even walked to the kitchen and asked but no one wanted to look my way. I guess being a foot taller than the tallest kitchen worker maybe be a bit intimidating as well.

I also want to recommend the Perfect Pull-Up. You can do like 35 exercises if you get creative with it and you understand the principles of lifting and such. Alright, going to walk to the grocery store.... as I can now afford Organic milk again.

Do you remember when....

...you last played this game.
http://www.virtualapple.org/oregontraildisk.html

You are welcome, especially since you are at work. Oregon Trail is the tits. I made it all the way, first time ever. I even got a Top 10 score.

Its my buddy's birthday today, so that means bowling. Bowling parties are way cooler when you are older. You can drink. Although when you were a kid, you had Street Fighter and Pinball games as well. You don't seem them anymore.

I will be working on Monday, my funemployent comes to a close, but not worry, since I will be in front of a computer more often, I will blog more. I promise.
