Progression.
WARNING: Not really a Vegas post. Nothing to read here.
New year, time for a status update. Status: pretty damn good.
My job is good, I'm pretty inexpendable and more or less like the actual work. In 2013 I was actively looking for work, I thought my position was so dead-end; now that I'm in the inventory position it's truly bearable. I just passed 4 years in one job, which I think aside from my first Barnes & Noble stint is a record. I don't make a ton of money but it's enough to get me out on weekends and finance 3-4 Vegas trips a year.
My health, 6 years on from a heart attack, is also fine. Just got put through a bank of heart tests that I wasn't getting with Healthy SF, and came through fine. I'm more or less healthy, aside from a couple hips that are bugging me and may need work. I'm not getting any slimmer, but I may remedy that in the coming month or so (Soylent?).
Not much going on on the female front, but for the first time in a while that's by choice. I dated a girl recently, could have pursued it but just wasn't willing to put up with the disruption of my routines. I ghosted her. I'm still pretty invisible to females in the bars but maybe losing some paunch this year will improve that. I still see no real path to a "relationship", nor any desire for one. I'm not one of those "Men Going Their Own Way" retards but I really don't have much need for a female in my life at this point. I'm one of the few truly happy bachelors; the recent dalliance with dating confirmed that for me.
Still really don't have any friends, which is also fine. No friends = no commitments, no responsibilities, no hassles. I'm fine being a wolf pack of one.
Still in the same living situation, almost 7 years here. Landlords drive me nuts, but they basically leave me alone and my rent is obscenely low for the City, allowing me to hit Vegas so many damn times a year. I may do some room upgrades (carpet, paint, closet doors) if I come back from the Feb or May trips with some extra cash.
Not much else going on. I work, I come home, I drink on Saturdays, I get into a rut, I break out of the rut every few months with the Vegas trips. The trips continue to keep me energized and hopeful. I have the planning and saving for them pretty much down to a science to the point that they've just become a normal part of my life. I consider going elsewhere but when it comes down to it I don't want to go anywhere else. Vegas has all the stuff that I look for on vacations. It's quick, easy, inexpensive, usually loads of fun and there's always the chance something amazing can happen there.
So things are good, and I'm more or less happy.
Knock on wood.
