Day 392 of 365 More.
So today I started filling out preliminary paperwork to start at what I’ve been calling job #2. Next week. I guess you could say its a done deal. But its not. It’s like at 99% certainty, but if life kicking me in the ass repeatedly over the last 33+ years has taught me anything, its to live in fear of that deadly 1%.
But anyway, in all likelihood, next week I’m back to full time work. Which means the end of sitting around all day in shorts. In celebration of my last days of bumness, I present the most ghetto self portrait I’ve ever taken. Let’s hope that I’m not actually wrong and this continues.

this is a really nice photo!
Oh Baby! This is indeed GHETTO! What’s all that stuff on the porch behind you? Oh well, get it out of your system 🙂 I’ll wait until next week to say congrats 😉 Wouldn’t want to jinx ya.
Anyway, where ya homies at? Looks like you’re waiting for them to show up with a 40 oz.
where is the brown paper bag for the beer?
@one daaaangerous easter egg: hah… you think so? Thanks.
@lrayholly: its stuff that we need to recycle plus building supplies from when we were redoing the house. But I like the Fred Sanford/James Taylor appeal it gives.
@Mikey aka DaSkinnyBlackMan: dammit! that would have been perfect.
Really great shot. I love it. Good luck with that new job.

@*~fer~*: thank you… keep your fingers crossed.
That is, in fact, ghetto as hell.
Bah ha ha! You are awesome. This is too fun.
And yay! on the job. I’m very excited for you.
New challenges, new opportunities, and most importantly, good old fashion CASH. Hope it works out.
i like this one. it’s "real"
and i’m really excited for you…i’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for you and another of my friends that’s in a similar situation and hopes to have a job offer on monday at his 2nd interview!!!
@MegaBee: yep. pretty much.
@jessi.: thanks, hun.
@DeHoll: we’ll see. Thank you.
@pi c’s: thanks. I’m hoping for the best.
Tried to copycat you… I just loved your’s so much.
I’m sure if that beer was a 40 of a less tasty brand of beer you could be way more ghetto. Here’s hoping it never comes to that, eh? 🙂 I’m keeping my fingers crossed to ward off that evil 1% from you.
@mickeysacks: it wasn’t worth it to go out and buy a 40. But yeah, that would have been great.
Good photo. Looks like "dammit I need a job BUT I’m gonna miss this freedom" Best wishes. Just recently started viewing your work, it’s great.
@Beemoe: something like that. Though honestly, this particular job sounds nice in a lot of ways.
No no no, you’ve gotta bust up those steps a little and have a Colt 45 in your hand!
Goddamn bum!
@phlewght: I did think of that, actually. It wasn’t worth shopping for. 🙂
The total-opposite copycat: country-club clothes, white Panama fedora, golf shoes w/spikes, large stemware with red wine, a cigar; sitting in a fine restaurant patio surrounded by like-dressed people, laughing at someone’s stupid joke….
