i've been having some difficulty getting used to an overnight shift, but i've at least made some progress on the electrical.

no transcript yet, so i guess i'm not going anywhere tomorrow.

i got my other pair of airwalks in and they're actually new shoes, so i'm going to have to call sport check in the morning to return the first pair as damaged.

my led lights should come in this week.

i'll need to make a number of calls tomorrow, but everything else is pretty much on hold until the transcript comes in. so, hopefully i can get some work done overnight, without falling asleep.

what it smells like is pepper.

i've never been pepper-sprayed, but it's kind of what i imagine pepper spray would be like.

and, i guess it's having the kind of reaction that pepper spray would have, too, isn't it?

it should be absolutely obvious that this is not my site, as the interest list is not remotely similar to anything i would demonstrate an interest in. stated bluntly, i absolutely despise everything about hip-hop. i think it's the personification of the decline of western society, and i'm never going to change my mind about it.

insofar as youtube is concerned, deathtokoalas is a dead handle. i will not be resurrecting it. if you see it jump up elsewhere, be confident in realizing that there is almost no chance it is actually me. and, if it is me, you should be able to link to it from this page, somehow.

surely, i must be typing on youtube somewhere, secretly? i'm not. and, the reason i haven't been utilizing youtube as a platform recently is because i don't like the interface anymore - something i was upfront about when they separated the interfaces. when youtube cross-linked to google+, it made sense to use it as a social networking platform, because comments by heavy users like myself would crosslink back to a profile that could likewise link out to a store (in my case, bandcamp). now that the platforms are no longer integrated, commenting on youtube is like typing into a black hole - it's just another anonymous comment, buried in the thousands of others. it's a waste of time.

nor am i easter-egging - i'm centralizing this because i want to make it easier to find my writing. i want everything accessible from one place so that nobody has to wonder whether it's me or not; i don't want this ambiguity, or these question marks.

but, i had somebody steal my handle on twitter, too, and i really don't get it. why do people feel the need to steal handles or set up fake profiles? get your own fucking handle.

so, i'd like to make a public request that whomever set this profile up either delete it or change the name on it, please.

i'm going to have to write something or other, but i'm going to put it aside for a little bit.

see....if i write the review, it's going to be dated to right now. today. and, i am going to be writing old reviews of shows, starting around mid-2017. but, i want to be sure i haven't lost it before i start writing it.

so, it will be at the top of the list of unwritten reviews - unless i find it, or otherwise get a better understanding of why it doesn't exist.

i noticed this afternoon that running the hot water in the kitchen really improved the air quality. so, i've put a pot of hot water out in the bedroom, and it seems to be making a difference. this is indicating to me that the primary reason my throat is sore is due to a lack of humidity. i'll have to keep experimenting with that, and keep trying to separate the aridity in the space from any second-hand smoke from upstairs or outside.
