Well, I'm tired.

I started the day off (after my exercise routine, of course) fixing a bunch of misspelled tracks I downloaded a while ago. Doing stuff like that sort of used to be my job, so it wasn't too much trouble. Besides if I didn't do it now, it'd probably keep bugging me until I actually did something about it.

Later, I spent the better part of an hour helping clear ice and snow from the roof of my house (actually it's a small apartment building, but whatever). It was almost covered in a thick coating of the stuff, which was more than a little worrying because of all the added weight to an already kind of weak roof. My arms are a little tired after all that but it's nothing I haven't felt before.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna spend some quality time with Bravely Default.

Ok, bye.

My dad used to be the handyman for my brother's rental properties in exchange for free rent. I was his handyman's helper on weekends. Did a lot of roof-clearing, ice chipping, and he taught me how to plow. All of those things are exhausting.

Snow detail sucks. I should be immune to the cold because of a partially Germanic/Icelandic heritage but the truth is I'm a sissy! I love looking at the snow and waking around in it but I HATE laboring in it!

Good thing you got at these things. 

Were you an editor before?

Data entry actually, spent a lot of time staring at databases and filing-in/correcting information.

I think I'd like that job, a lot of what I do at the station is similar.

A lot of labor especially after exercise. Props to you for getting it done. I'm not a fan of heights so that would have been a no go from me. 

Are those mp3 tracks you were editing? If so I hate it when bands do that especially with mixtapes. One of my little peeves when it comes to my iTunes library.

Yeah they were. Picked them up when De La Soul gave away most of their music catalog for free download on Valentine's Day.

Damn they gave away music on Valentine's Day? Can't believe I missed that.

I had to do that once two years ago when we had our epic snow storm. it was a pain but I'd rather have that pain than have a roof collapse.
