Tuesday, 08 January 2008 |
Happy 08 to everyone! I'm sitting here typing this blog semi-bored out of my mind as I'm sitting @ a city council hearing over a "code compliance" violation on my house. Don't worry I'm not going to jail lol! t was a formality I had to do as I was hooking up my sewer/water @ my house. My city has this requirement that makes you hook up to the city sewer and water as they go thru and revamp Cape coral w/ city/water. Its a bit frustrating in a lot of ways because not only do u have to buy ur house and all the stuff that goes into it.. Then they slap u w/ a 5-10 thousand charge for doing this... Sorry for ranting, but I feel bad for all the people that are struggling financially and having to get smacked w/ this also. As I'm sitting here listening to them call up various peoples to give there stories on why they did/didn't pay there code violations. I've realized that its a tough time for the economy and you start to see how people are struggling w/ paying there bills.. This trickles down to so many things and really makes me want to make sure I'm being wise w/ my finances. I'm very grateful that myself and my wife have taken the time out to put God first in our finances (tithing, not spending on dumb stuff, having accountability financially etc..) But maybe its time to cut down on the starbucks trips? Hmmmmmm.... Anyway here is my observations for this week:
Cds/cd players: As I was cleaning out my garage this week and was tossing out a lot of junk that's been sitting in there too long.. As I was listening to my ipod I came across all these old cds and my old walkman cd player.. The funny thing was how outdated having a ton of cds and a cd player felt.. It felt like I had a such a relic from the past! Even though we in the music biz complain how no one is buying albums anymore I realized I'm just as caught up in the new way the music biz works.. Is the cd/cd player going the way of cassettes and walkman? Is the new thing ipods and single song purchases? I don't know... But let me pnder this as I go and listen to my new 80's song I just dled off the itunes store... Ha ha. Nice rims/bad car: I never, ever ever been able to understand this one..... Why do peeps go and put hot rims on a jacked up car? There is something wrong when your rims cost more then your car! Down here in sw fl dudes love to put ridiculously huge rims on there cars (like 30 inch plus...) But when ya muffler is dragging off the back maybe u should fix that first? That to me is the definition of being "hood rich" lol. Wearing shorts w/ a skully hat: Whether u call them skullies, toboaggin's, touques or a snow caps... I can't understand why people rock these w/ shorts and a t-shirt. I'm saying this in the context of living in florida when its 85 degrees out! Meaning if u wearing shorts and a tank top to stay cool why do u have a ten pound knit cap on ur head? To stay warm? Lol.... I guess when ur a slave to fashion I guess u just gotta do what u gotta do.. But sorry its not fashionable to have a sweaty forehead! That's all for now.. I'm about to get called up! Finally! -tweezy
