Manners Maketh the Man

Hello world. Just checking in briefly then off to some video games, working on gunpla, and winding down for a relaxing weekend.

Some fun things happened today. First, instead of getting lunch on my own, I ate lunch with a coworker of mine(and true juggabro), at a Chinese restaurant. Since we both valued our time, we got our food to go and headed back to work. After chowing down on some good food (for a great price too), we got our fortune cookies. Typically, they are supposed to have fortunes written in them. Mine did not!

I was worried at first. Maybe it meant "bad luck and misfortune will infest your soul for all eternity," but nah, it wasn't. (A fun reference for all the 90s Nicktoon kids). It actually meant this:

"If there is no fortune in a fortune cookie, it is a sign that something good will happen to you soon. (Because fortune-cookie-fairy owes you one fortune.) Source: We created this rule as a solution to one of frequently asked questions." Source: eatfortunecookie.com/rules

This was fun. I guess I'm owed something good in my future. Hopefully it's soon, dang it! haha.

Next, I left work before 6 p.m. today! Woot! This is a big deal for me because I usually stay until 6 p.m. every single day and I feel like garbage when I get home. Just super tired and not wanting to do anything. It was nice leaving before sundown for once.

In addition to that, I'm starting to get my second wind again. I took this entire week off from working out to relax, recharge, and just focus on my own necessities. Now that I'm gaining strength again(besides a still pestering headache) I am going to move forward, stronger than ever with my creative endeavors and projects. I expect to have a lot of things to be proud of in the next few weeks.

For now, I'll enjoy this weekend. I got some Kingsman: The Golden Circle planned and just meeting up with some friends to brainstorm some creative projects we could all work on.

Not sure yet if Foo Fighters, Wizard Con, or HvZ are within reach, but I predict 1/3 things will be visited, but the other 2 may be passed. Time will only tell.

I end this post with another wonderful quote from Kingsman: The Secret Service:

The true originator of this quote is Erenest Hemingway. I respect that they used this in the movie and it makes sense. The only person I should be competing with is myself, no one else.

That's true nobility.

Good night world.
