Dream Theater have a new double rock opera CD out.

What was happening with me last time ?

On March 30th 2015 I got fired from Starbucks. I had to move out of my flat and move back to Wales. It was terribly emotional. Getting out of my flat was so stressful. The housing agents

wanted all sorts of things. Most of which involved them not spending a penny and me spending a fucking ton of money. Just to move out.

Anyway I moved back to the seaside just as the weather got warm. Took a driving test for a 125 motorbike so I can drive around.

Got a new job and a new flat in Wales.

Man it seems like employment issues abound for DTFers...hopefully everything works itself out.

It's a cafe and music venue in Cardigan Wales.

And you posted some cool live music from your work on Instragram.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4594 on:** February 21, 2016, 05:31:53 PM »

Dropping my daughter back to her mother's house is always the most painful and depressing moment of the weekend.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4595 on:** February 21, 2016, 05:36:26 PM »

Just remember how good it feels to pick her up the next time.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4596 on:** February 21, 2016, 05:42:14 PM »

I need a drink or four

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4597 on:** February 21, 2016, 05:47:10 PM »

Your daughter will smile ear to ear with your next visit.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4598 on:** February 21, 2016, 06:22:59 PM »

Thanks, King. I go through this on a weekly basis. I'll be fine.

On a funnier note:

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4599 on:** February 21, 2016, 06:23:52 PM »

Peyton would be the MVP again.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4600 on:** February 21, 2016, 06:31:40 PM »

heheh Indeed, he would be.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #4601 on:** February 21, 2016, 07:33:14 PM »

Evening dudes

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4602 on:** February 21, 2016, 07:47:18 PM »

What's up, Reap?

JayOctavarium · « **Reply #4603 on:** February 21, 2016, 08:01:45 PM »

So I'm planning on offloading my truck to whoever wants to make a offer, and I picked up a 94 Accord off of my buddy's girlfriend. Drove it around today. Best car I've ever owned. Lol

ReaperKK · « **Reply #4604 on:** February 21, 2016, 08:07:55 PM »

That accord is probably just being broken in, those things last forever.

Hyperplex · « **Reply #4605 on:** February 21, 2016, 08:12:05 PM »

Watching Forged In Fire for the first time...it's like Chopped for metalsmiths.

Seriously. It's got a couple issues. ABS light is on.... and it stalls at idle sometimes when the tank gets below 1/4. My friend's GF bought it off an old woman 5 yrs who had it parked in a barn and used it very sparingly.. It had 85k miles when it was parked (Odo is dead). We estimate probably no more than 150k miles on it now. Probably less. She drove it till she graduated college and bought a brand new Corolla (She makes big money now.. compared to me. Haha). Now it's mine.

Now I just need to find someone who wants to buy a shitty Rodeo with a possible blown head gasket.

I love chopped so I will definitely have to check this out.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4608 on:** February 21, 2016, 09:13:16 PM »

And I only just found out what Chopped is!

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4609 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:14:43 PM »

Sleep? Who fuckin needs it...

JayOctavarium · « **Reply #4610 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:22:09 PM »

lolsleep

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4611 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:25:56 PM »

Bah, sleep.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4612 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:31:18 PM »

There's too much that needs to be done to sleep so much.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4613 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:33:10 PM »

I know right? Sleep is such a buzzkill. Right when my brain has finally reached peak performance for the day, bam, I'm supposed to sleep, which today was 6-7am.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4614 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:42:52 PM »

Seriously. Sometimes I'm more creative in the middle of the night. My mind is much more relaxed at night. During the day there's too much noise around me.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4615 on:** February 21, 2016, 10:45:52 PM »

I'm the same. I come up with a lot of my best ideas while in bed trying to sleep, because my brain doesn't have an off switch. I often write down ideas on on my phone while lying in bed so I don't forget them, then the next morning I'll see them and expand them into something.
I think most of the ideas I'm currently working on I came up with while trying to get to sleep.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4616 on:** February 21, 2016, 11:17:36 PM »

It makes perfect sense. Our minds are much more relaxed when we're lying in bed. We're already trying to shut ourselves down so we can fall asleep. Though going a couple of days without sleep helps also. I ran into that problem last week. By the second night, I was seeing shit that wasn't there, having these odd thoughts and visions.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4617 on:** February 21, 2016, 11:55:07 PM »

Been there. Not fun.

I think also when you're in bed, it's like sensory deprivation, no pictures and noises coming from various gadgets, so the imagination is more free to do whatever.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4618 on:** February 22, 2016, 03:18:11 AM »

That's basically what I was getting at. All stimuli has been removed, except for hoping to have dreams with googley-eyed women.

Ironically enough, a few minutes after my last post I fell asleep with my hand on the keyboard.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4619 on:** February 22, 2016, 03:44:37 AM »

I wish I had more dreams about women, even the googly eyed variety.

Instead I dreamed I was failing at school, then went to some kind of mall to rent time in a tiny holodeck, then some people looked at my drawings when I didn't want them to, and I cried and it made the colours run and suddenly the drawings looked awesome.
Then I started singing a song in my dream, then I woke up and realized I was singing it to the tune of the Stargate movie overture.
