DAY THIRTEEN (Tuesday 11/27/12)

Took a while to get caught up after the Thanksgiving weekend, but we're up to date now.  Thanks to everyone for all of the support and feedback.  Yeah, the last couple of days were brief and boring, but such is life.

1 - Wake Up @ 6:00am

Alarm goes off.  (Did Rachel leave for school yet?  Can I go back to bed without anyone noticing?  I'll give myself a stupid RED light for sleeping in.  It'll be worth it.  Shit, she's still here...guess I'll get up)

2 - Scottish Shower

I feel like I've been bathing myself in a Siberian snowdrift for over a year.  It's only been thirteen days.  I was a little hesitant getting in the shower today.  Had to give myself the ol' "You're a man damn it!" pep talk.  I still feel refreshed as heck after getting out, but since it's gotten colder outside/in the house, it just makes me hesitate a little bit before taking the plunge.  Rachel knocked on the bathroom door the second I got out of the shower.  "My car won't start."  Yup, dead battery.  Jump-started the scholar and she was off to school.  I'm sure she was freezing her ass off watching me charge her battery, but I was really comfortable.  If you haven't noticed, I really love the cold weather now that my body temp is all whacked out.

3 - No Television

All day long I've had the same South Park scene running through my head.  Chef's dad and the Loch Ness Monster..."What do you want from us, Loch Ness Monshter?!?!  And that's when he said, 'I need about Tree-fiddy'.  I ain't givin' you no Tree-fiddy, you gol'darm Loch Ness Monshter!!!"
I had been quoting this episode all day.  Rachel had never seen it before, so to prove I was sane, I had to show her that episode over the lunch hour.  It's only 11 minutes, but it was on Netflix.  Yes, I'm not supposed to watch Netflix, but I figure I could've completely cheated and watched it on Youtube anyway.  I'll give myself a YELLOW light so it doesn't look like I'm changing the rules.  I did it to prove a point and to entertain my girlfriend...it's not like I was subjecting myself to mind-dumbing waste like Storage-Pawn-Toddler-Amish-Housewife-Swamp-Auction-Toy Hunterbattlewarstars.

4 - Clean My Room

Room is clean = Ethan is happy.

5 - Write A Song Every Day

I spent a significant amount of time tonight tweaking my audio software (about 3 hours).  Hopefully I'll have all of my ones and zeros in order and be ready to lay down some tracks tomorrow night.  I did take a little chunk of time to make sure I wrote something for DAY THIRTEEN as well.

6 - 30 Minute Workout

Got my workout in this morning.  Feeling pretty good about myself, but I really need to figure out a way to work in some more cardio.  It's too cold outside to bike or run.  Gym membership is probably coming my way after payday.
