After finishing my real life roofing project, I was planning on a relaxing day of painting.  Of course my silly human brain did not connect the dots on the things that would most likely keep me from getting anything done today as it is 12:41pm  and I have only been able to ship out a nunchaku order at the post office as my entire days worth of "things done".
It all started last night.  My knees and body hurt so much from the endless physical strain of being a one man construction crew for three weeks, that I thought it would be nice to make dinner on the grill.  Of course the chicken was from the food bank, as we are 22 days late on the mortgage and have not been able to afford regular food the whole summer. 
The problem with Chicken from the food bank is that you do not know how long it has been sitting around.  Lets just say that at 4am, my stomach was able to tell me.  I spent about 30 minutes in the bathroom trying to live through what I made for dinner the evening prior.  OF course I got up feeling like death and began my daily chores of making sure my wife has taken all of her medicine.  These require my phone to have timers set all day to make sure that each one is taken at the correct time.  By 8am, a puppy we have agreed to watch will then be dropped off.  Of course I'm the only person who can walk around as everyone else in the house is either bed bound by sickness or bed bound by laziness.  By the time I found everything to ship my order which took hours due to my stomach pains, misplaced office supplies and various other distractions, I noticed that the shipping quote seemed low.  Having spent 4 months getting the shopping cart to work as it should, I didn't find this surprising.  Every time someone buys something from the store, the store breaks.  Each time it is something different, and each time it is never anyone's fault.  This time the USPS was used to ship, charging $2.42 for shipping.  The cart said that it should have been $6.71, and of course when I got to the post office it was $8.42.  When I got back home I waned to simulate the check out process. You see, my silly brain doesn't know how to give up.....so i keep trying. (you would think this would be a great life skill and asset for employment, in reality it is a weakness) Of course now the USPS is not listed as an option for shipping.  FedEx, and UPS were, and bonus problem, they were shipping for less than the US post office, according to my site.  I spent about 45 minutes getting no where.  While all of this is going on, I also noticed that the VPS server was not letting me in.  All the sites were up and running, but the management was blocking me.   As this wonder news was discovered, my wife is now getting to the bad chicken part of the story in the bathroom.  She tend to be a bit slower with the metabolism.  It is now 1pm

Another wasted day, nothing done.  This stuff happens to me every day, every week, every month.  My life has been on hold for 6 years.  No matter how many things I fix, more break.  No matter how successful one day is, another comes along to wipe it out.

You can try to have a glowing Good Morning America attitude, but in the end it's always food poisoning, bills, or some ass climbing out of the woodwork to fuck you over.  I wonder, how do those fuckheads in time square have lives that enable them to get up at 4am drive into New York City of all places ,  ON TIME mind you, and have the time to scream and yell at the TV camera for 3 hours?  All happy, in new clothing smiling like the world is just the most wonderful shit storm ever created.  Who has a life that lets them do that?  I can't even go to the grocery store without some event screwing me for hours.

This is how my day goes as unemployed.  I can not imagine what would happen if i could get a real 9-5 job.  for me to be out of touch for 9 hours everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Holy crap on a stick, it could never happen.  My only option at this point is to go back to school to learn a new trade from scratch.  and that seems impossible.  I've already learned that computers and I will never get along.  I think to clearly for that.  If I could get money for the schooling, what on earth would I study? I've tried hard labor my whole life since I was 15 years old, I know that my body could never hold out or up long enough to get anywhere.  So what is left?  I have all day and have proven that I can not get anything done, ever.  I have no sense of accomplishment what so ever, and I try harder than any of the people I see around me.  I'm not tooting my own horn, I've been paying attention to this as it has bothered me for a long time.  IF anyone I knew had to go threw the flaming hoops that I go threw everyday not one of them would not give up.  So how does everyone else in life I know get things done?  We all have the same amount of time in a day.
