Wow. I've been finding it exceptionally difficult to get motivated about anything lately. I have successfully switched from PM workouts to AM workouts; that's cool because I don't feel pressured to do anything important when I get home from work (even when I actually do..). I've been spending the day with DVDs playing the background while I continue to settle in... handing picture frames and stuff, slowly putting everything away. Man I have way too much crap. I've been making a box of stuff to give to Goodwill, but I'm still having a hard time letting go of all my useless stuff.

The clock project is starting to look more difficult than I thought; I'm going to need a drill press, and a lot of time. A TON of the pieces are uncut, so the most important first step is to make many copies of the plans so that when I screw up the first few times - I still have one or two leftover to get it right. But the instructions are easy to follow, and it looks like about the simplest clock one could have - so I think it'll be a cool project. The apartment is starting to look like home; cross your fingers and I might actually finish tonight.

Work is going better and better; I'm slowly getting a grasp on what the job is all about. This should be a nice easy week. Firstly, I get Wednesday off for Independence Day, and I'll be taking Friday off to get to Spokane on time. Unfortunately - I need to make up the 8 hours this week in 3 days. That means a long haul for the few days I'll be there this week. Good news: I'm finally getting paid at the end of this week. First paycheck, here I come :) Also, Sage Francis is playing Tuesday night in Columbia, MO. It's a ways away - so I may or may not go. We'll see.
