Got up and made the coffee. Finished Jeffrey Gitomer’s Little Black Book of Connections. I will save you the time: Do things for a ton of people for free so that some of them do stuff for you. Started “What Color is your parachute. Got #1GF! off to work.

11 AM

Lifted weights and rode the bike. Put a 4 GB card into my phone to make it an Ipod and tried to load 3 Gb of music onto it. I spent the three hours that it took to load the music looking at historical photos of Hull. This was partly due to boredom, and partly because I’m fascinated with uncovering what might have existed before the things that exist today.

3:30 PM

The bank didn’t bother calling me back like they promised, so I called them. They said they couldn’t go any higher. That didn’t bother me as much as them not calling me back. I called my mortgage guy to tell him I quit my job. He didn’t seem fazed by it. This could be because we have planned for this, or because we made our first offer on a house almost three years ago. Agreed to take a second look at a house even though I don’t have a job. Called myself a wuss for not taking calculated risk and got with the program.

Looked into Father’s day deals and coupons.

Went to take a second look at the house. We all got locked out of the real estate office on our way to put in an offer. Didn’t take it as a bad sign. When asked why I quit my job, I offhandedly told my real estate agent that it was because there was no way that I was going to make a million working there. She replied by saying that there is no way to make a million when you’re collecting a salary from someone else. I found the point debatable, but reasonably true. Ate dinner at a local restaurant to celebrate/keep people on the street from staring at my giant balls.

9:30 PM

Watched an episode of “So, You Think You Can Dance?” and spent the time making rude comments to #1GF! in the voice of Shane Sparks and bitching about the lack of breakdancers. Realized that I don’t see the point of watching anyone dance who cannot make themselves move like a robot. Went to bed and slept well.
