I got my fed. tax returns friday, which came pretty quickly. like 2 weeks, and I filed by mail. So I spent a little too much money this weekend. But it is fun every once in a while. I need to pay off the doctor bills next month, my original plan for the money. I still need a new bed. My parents are suppose to give me their king one of these days, and that bed is soooo comfortable. Not a top priority for them since they have a nice bed. But I am going to have to get something to hold me over in the meantime. I slept like complete shit last night, and ended up on the couch, a contributing factor. I get one good night of sleep due to the fact that I am tired as hell from one crappy night of sleep. It keeps going on like this.

There is a new family guy series starting May 1st. I was never much for TV, cartoons especially, but I have gotten to liking it the last few months. (what I am watching now)

I have started playing the violin more again lately. I need to use the little free time I have doing something I enjoy. Be it that I teach 30 students music every week I should play more. Some time soon I need to get my cello fixed so I can play that too. But after I get it fixed I think I am going to sell it and buy a new one.

I came to the conclusion over the weekend that since I am unhappy in general doing the crap (work) I could give a fuck about I have got to work on getting the hell out of here and doing something that entails my interests more. While teaching music is better than not doing anything with it, I have been teaching for 8 years now, and it is ok, but mostly I am tired of never having my evenings free.

Ohio has some of the most toxic nasty air in the country. (acid rain killing trees in PA, we contribute to that). Not to say the air quality world wide is much better. But it just stinks here, especially Columbus. If you go outside for even 2 minutes you come back smelling like some funk ass. Maybe it is my over sensitive dog like senses, but I don't notice the same nasty smell other places I go. When we were out in California they air quality was much better. We we also near the ocean so it was pretty windy, which helps, and they have emissions standards which also helps. I didn't see too many cars or trucks with thick nasty black smoke coming out of the exhaust. In the summer hear you can see the nasty smoking particles in the humid ass air. It is a wonder we are advised not to exercise out side certain times of the day and times of the year.

I liked my cousins idea of everyone just being bused everywhere. Like instead of all of the employees of a company driving to work, they go to the bus stop where the get picked up to go to work (like when we were in school). Each company could have its own busing service. That would be fun.
I guess we could take buses now, but our mass transit system is THE worst here in columbus. Just the worst.
