A New Leese on Life

This will be the first weekend in a LONG time that I will get to work on racing stuff. The primary goal for the weekend is to clean out the garage, determine which things are trash, which parts need sold and which parts I need to protect for storage (like engine blocks).

Also part of the weekend’s agenda is to determine how my goals for racing the car, money and my goals for building a product that is tied to racing, all converge. Lots of goals, limited money means we need to take baby-steps toward getting things done. At the same time, I want to build momentum, so I will be figuring out how to snow-ball the whole thing.

I know everyone hates it, but i have been immune for the last 9 months, and really, basically immune for the last 6 years. You see, i realize now that I HATE TRAFFIC. Now that I have to sit in it everyday, and wait for incessant minutes and hours on end, I realize that I don’t enjoy the process. And who can help but think about all the money going out their tailpipe while performing the wait. Its exhausting (pun intended.)

So here i am, committed to a job, committed to serving the family by working at a full-time job. But my own sanity is being challenged by the sheer frustration of getting there and coming back. Over dramatic? Yes. My reality for the time being? Afraid so.

Anyone else need to vent about traffic? Anyone live in heaven where there is no traffic?

I don’t mean to, but my wife pointed out to me that everytime I sip my coffee, I slurp. I spent 9 months at the house drinking coffee any way I wanted and now that I work in an office, I am getting a complex wondering if I slurp or not. It is not fun. Actually, its kinda fun.
