Boring drivel..

At first, I didn't think I'd 'get' to volunteer as I decided if other people nominate themselves, let that be that.

Turns out.. there was one more spot than people... so I did, indeed, take it.

Now I'm on some mailing list with people complaining about teenagers using the swimming pool. What the fuck is this shit? I suppose I knew what the 'board' dealt with... but really, is this what occupies people's time? Perhaps my way of life has more benefits than I originally thought.

No luck on doing something to make my life less sedentary.

On the plus side, I am sort of gearing my mind up to do one thing I promised myself I'd do this long weekend -- that's write something. I even toyed with the idea of buying the cheapest laptop I could find so I could it on the balcony and write.

This.. however, goes against my financial mandate -- I must spend less. I make more than enough money to buy such things, but I've got too much debit from when I was younger... so that goes first. Then I can do whatever.

In that same sort of vein... I wonder how much more money I'd have if I didn't piss around with poker. It's really the one 'vice' I have.. it's not like I lose tons and tons -- not more than people send in a month dining out or funding whatever hobby-thing they have. Still, I suppose.. that needs to end.
