Day #22, Lazy Friday.




I was exhausted from yesterdays debacle with my car that i really didn't want to do much. Once i came home my oil heater in my house needed service and in turn there was no heat in my house.

Not only was i already freezing and wet from standing out in the snow i couldn't take a hot shower and just go to bed.




I called the Oil company and spent the better half of the morning watching the guy work on it. Went to see how my nephew was doing, right before i went to get a High Definition receiver for my new television.




Adam called me to see if i wanted to watch the, "Green Hornet". It was pretty good, i love watching any 3d movies.




Cameron Diaz is not aging well, but who am i to judge?

I'm no fucking spring chicken myself either.

I was supposed to go to China Blacks Birthday at the Penny, but i just didn't feel like going out tonight. I just wanted to spend some time alone.




Here is a picture of my lunch today:




Mussels, string beans, mushrooms, and some eel sushi. I don't know as to why i like Chinese food so much after a night of drinking.

So that's pretty much it for this Friday. I'm learning how to edit my videos now with a few programs i have hopefully its becomes more interesting to watch.

Day #21, Adam comes to visit, I get stuck in the snow.



Adam came back to Long Island on leave from the Marines. We went out for a few drinks around town and then went to get something to eat afterwords. It started snowing while we were eating and while driving home i lost controll of my car and crashed it into a snow bank.

Day #17, Be safe and Learn Everything or My Cubicle Sucks (and i want my stapler back.)




















My baby sister left for College for the spring semester over at Wagner college today, she had a nice winter break. I just hope she is making wise decisions and even with the wrong ones i just hope there not too bad and that she learns from it.

They also moved my work station from a shitty work station to a even more shitty place.

"And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire..."

Day #13, Snowblowing then Dinner with Old Friends.




The storm brought over 15 inches of snow and it didn't go all through the day as was expected. I was surprised to see sunlight when i woke up this morning. My brother used the new snow blower, it works pretty well and cuts the work a considerable amount of time.

Met up with Kristen and Erin for dinner. Its nice when i get to see them. We all have different schedules and its difficult for all of us to get together.

Day #12, The begining of the Storm.



Wanna see me clean my car off? Yeah, OKAY!

This was the beginning of the second snow fall of the season. It supposed to be a big one, up to 25 inches is expected. I don't mind the snow. I love the cold. I like coming in from the cold and the comfort the sensation of warming up. Being snowed in watching movies, never needing a cooler for beer. The accessories like jackets, hats, gloves, sweaters.

I like the silence Winter brings. As if the the whole world is asleep.  

Day #11, Happy BIrthday Mikey B.



I went to the Penny to celebrate Mikey B's Birthday. Hes been a permanent fixture at the bar longer than i can remember.

I also talked to Tristan for a bit.

Day #10, Wake up, George!



It was pretty Lazy sunday today. In the Video i wake up my Co-Worker before i left  work. Once i got home i started to cut out more flyers for the podcast. So far this video project is going fine. At least i am still recording something everyday. Hopefully as the time goes by, I'll get better at it.

I don'tknow if i am learning anything from this. I don't know if its beacause i'm not really showing some honesty or any real footage beyond the mundane routines throughout the day. Hopefully, as the days go by i can capture something more in depth.

One week into the New Year and it went by so fast.  I think as i get older time seems to just fly on by.

Day #9, Going Out for Sushi.

Day #8, Happy Birthday or Footloose and Fancy Free



Went out tonight to Painters to celebrate my friends Birthday. There was a live band playing some old blues and classic rock. A man in the red shirt would dance all crazy like throughout any song. He might of looked crazy and ridiculous, but i guarantee he was having the most fun than any other person in the room, I envy that courage to be free and to let go like that. All footloose and fancy free.

Day #7. Dinner with a friend. Or how I have to hide from other shit.





I had dinner with my friend Kristen. She's been through allot this year, life threatening condition where she had around 5 major surgeries and a recent breakup.

She invited me over for dinner tonight. But she was kinda shy when I asked her if I could tape her for my video entry for today.

My little brother is having a few friends over my house, and I didn't feel like being there cramping his style. So I headed over to the Penny to drink a few and wait it out.

Gave China Black some shit about his upcomming birthday. There's talks about some more snow tomorrow.I'm glad i'm off

day #6. Comic book day and Nerd Rage.




Its comic book day and while visiting my local comic book store, a Girl walks in trying to sell her Magic the Gathering cards. When she hears that they do not buy them back she gets a little nerd rage and tries even harder. I also played a new game at work, "Hemp Tycoon".

Day #5, Podcasting and How I suck at Mega-Millions.



Today after work I headed over to Elvis place to record a new episode for our podcast. I also bought a lotto ticket today for the mega-millions. It was up to $355 million dollars  so far and it has attracted allot of strange people.

Day #4, I rule at playing Tetris.



Nothing really to record today. Got breakfast before going to work. Goofed off playing tetris for a bit. After work, drove down to the Half Penny Pub to meet up with Elvis and Kate. Pretty much it for a monday.

I need to try to get some sort of video editing software soon. I'd like to experiment with something like that. Tomorrow Elvis and i are going to be recording a podcast so i'll show the behind the scene of our show.

Happy new year! Day #1 and Day #2 Ryan says Hello

Happy New Year! 2011, a new start. I'm going to start a new project here. I decided to record something about myself everyday for a year. I want to see what can happen within a year and how it looks through my cameras eye. A little social experiment, and hopefully i can learn something from it.

Here is a little get together at my friends Mike and Jess's place:





This afternoon. my Brother brought over my baby nephew for a visit. Here he is with my mom:
