Nepotism might get me an interview for a manager position that I'm fairly confident I'm underqualified for.
Have to send a couple emails tomorrow and see what's what first, kinda shook

Do you mean like you know somebody involved in the hiring process or like actual "my dad owns the company" nepotism? The prior is normal and treat it like another interview..... the latter is well.... its not really an interview its just a nice conversation where you talk about your winter plans with your cousins and figure out your salary.....,

Person hiring hasn't interviewed anyone yet, has known my aunt for decades. Was told if I'm interested just to stop by for an interview but its all but guaranteed.
Why are you shook
A manager/ management position is all about common sense and being a likeable person. If you can do that the rest of the job will fall in place.

One of the worst things about having parents that are older is health concerns.
My dad's going though chemo yet the dude is taking it like a champ. The man is almost 80 and you wouldn't even notice he's on the hard drip. Compare that to my cousin who died last year. He was 50 years old (yeah I am the baby in my generation. There's like a 35 year gap between me and the oldest in my generation) and the chemo ate him alive.
It makes me wonder how I would do in that position.

I was feeling super shitty and wallowing in self-pity earlier, but this gave me some perspective.
Hope your dad pulls through dude. Keeping him in my thoughts.
My wife asked if she could quit the job she's working now because she's miserable doing unemployment like fast-food style, when she thought she would be helping/providing a variety of services for those seeking employment like seminars on MSOffice or resume building. But in this small down that nobody has heard of, nobody does anything but file for unemployment.
So she put in a few week back. Friday is her last day. Meanwhile, she had put in for a different job in another department on Jan 2nd, and they just now called her in for an interview. They loved her, and want her in for a second interview next week.
I think she's a slam dunk. She has infinitely more charisma than I do and is almost overqualified for this job. Full time, government job. It's in Southgate (suburb of Detroit) and if she got it, we would move out of whiteyville, Mi.

By reiloI need a W.wut. a win? a woman? a wittle boy?

In my world, I'm really sad. my best friend is moving to ohio on sunday, and tonight was our last night chillin. it was a good night. lots of fun. but no one does it like we do. it's gonna be tough doing shit without him. hopefully we see each other one last time on saturday but his conniving cunt ass gf is gonna try to stop it for sure.
honestly, i feel like there is a giant void ahead of me and i need to fill it with something besides sadness or i'll go crazy.
this might seem kind of weird but its not like he's my boyfriend. just my best friend in the world. it fucking sucks that he's leaving.

Don't worry you'll find new friends.
The guy that was my best friend growing up as nothing to do with me and my friends back home anymore. Every since he got his doctrine he just stopped talking to us.
I was mad for awhile but then I realized people are like the tides. They come and go at their own discretion.
If you and that dude were meant to be friend you'll be friends years from now.
Real talk out of my whole crew from high school I only speak to 1 person. There was like 10 of us at one point. When I came back from the Army a lot of them just wouldnt speak to me. The problem was I changed for the good while they stayed stucked. Shit, they're still stuck. Dudes have multiple kids but want to act like they're in high school.
You'll be find. Either you stay friends or you don't.

Oprah said (lol) "Bite off more than you can chew, then chew it"
You'll be fine.
By DY_nastyi think so. A couple more group hang outs and I am in there.By YamabroI'm in love.lol
that whole set-up thing actually worked out?
By reiloI do work bro. I knew she was game once we started talking about jellyfish and novels.By YamabroI'm in love.I ugh what? How are you so fucking lucky goddamn lol.
Me: I love your tattoo. I thought it was a Jellyfish at first.
Her: That's what it was going to be but the guy in Thailand said he couldn't do it. Too complicated.
Me: that sucks because a Jellyfish tattoo would be awesome. they're the coolest sea animal.
Her: do you really mean that?
Me: Yep Ive loved them since the first time I went to The Monterey Bay Aquarium.
She stares at me and smile.
Her: I studied Marine Biology because I fell in love with jellyfish at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Me: really?
The conversation gradually changes to novels.
Her: B said you read a lot. What are you currently reading?
Me: Tender is the Night.
Her: you're shitting me right?
Me: why would I make that up?
Her: I just bought that book this week. I've only read The Great Gatsby recently.
And the rest of the night was one great conversation getting to know each other.

By reiloToo good to be true. She probably served jail time for cutting her last boyfriend's dick off.
I know man. Things just don't work like this for me. Something's up. The world is getting ready to take a dump on me.
I understand where you're coming from. Because I came out to Hawaii thinking I was about to bro-down and money up only to find out that my best friend was actually just me talking to myself.
So that girl is probably somewhere between NK spy and Suge Knight's daughter

Saturday night gym escapades...
I get to the gym around 8pm or so, not too many people in there, but it's not dead either. I walk in and grab the nearest bench, thinking to myself that how nice it is that the half of the gym I am on is completely empty. I really dislike the gym when it's busy because most people are extremely inconsiderate.
Within about a minute of thinking to myself the aforementioned, a proper dime just walks on over and starts working out not even ten feet in front of me. Not the worst thing in the world I think to myself...
Jinx.
Since us men are a bunch of lemmings, it took only about another 90 seconds for the area that was once completely empty to pull in a near dozen or so men to do some completely random bullshit work out around this girl that they could've done at home. The thirst was very real.

I hate this shit.
Went to a party/hiphop show in the shitty part of paramount.
Fucking glad my family bounced before I entered the school system there. The atmosphere was so damn tense the whole night.
It was BYOB, the group I went with brought more beer than was there when we showed. Friend went to grab a bottle of what someone else brought and some chick flipped her shit. Could not be calmed, way too fucking old to be pulling that shit, even brought her boyfriend over for who the fuck knows why, poor dude looked at her like 'why you doing this' I swear she's gonna get him stomped the fuck out sooner than later.
If she was a dude she would have been a portrait on a RIP T-shirt years ago.

That's some shit. I'm glad none of my friends are stingy pricks about alcohol at parties. In fact, they offer whatever is available. If it's a group I don't know, I usually ask, but I have never encountered someone getting mad. It's completely counter to a good party.
Best weekend in a long time. Met the girl of my dreams. As a Niner fan watching the Seahawks choke was a beautiful thing. As a California resident that fucking hates the Raiders and their fans watching the Pats win another Superbowl puts a smile on my face. I get to see my son in a few days.
Oh and depending on what happens during the week I might be getting a Camaro. That's still up in the air. 2015 is looking better than 2014.

This thread covers everything lol
Just cracked 12% bodyfat yesterday. (The good way) Once I hit 11.5 or so, I'll straight sprinting again and playing 5/5 full court.
I may actually a post a before/after video of how I rebuilt my jumpshot since I got here too. Feels amazing man. ;_;
Just got offered a position protecting your favorite country's interests - in Kabul, so that's something to think about today
And I forgot how much I love reading the absolute cheese that William C Dietz cranks out. Legion of The Damned is a very entertaining sci-fi/mili run straight out of the 80s and I KNOW that these prequel books are worse but I can't stop reading lol
Oh, and this redhead approached me at 24 hr fitness. She works there, so I'm doubly sure to never come off as 'that guy'.gym version - I liked the attention though. Cool that so many people have kinda given me a shoutout or headnod for working so hard at this basketball shit.
Things are still a bit hectic, but my other roommate (the girl who's done a fuckton to help me decompress after the Texas stuff), is trying to convince me to start up a blog once things settle down so more. Might do it.

By YamabroI remember when I was sub 12% body fat. It was so long ago.We're getting old. Invest in some thermogenics man.

Over the last two weeks I lost about 10 pounds by just eating healthier and drinking more tea and less soda.
^cut out soda about two years ago. its a damned good decision regardless of your goals or lifestyle
By reiloTry not to play ball on pavement. Your knees might explode. Stick to a gym if you can.i'm not even going hard yet (actively avoiding pickup ball is the only way to prevent it) but yeah... i'm finally seeing the benefits to being patient on this one.
