bathtime

so today was fun! i went over to robs place, and gave his stepson Cullen the lego dark shark boat to go along with his black baron bi-plane he got the other day. the kids gonna be so spoiled!!

rob asked me to be his best man at his wedding up in Denver, whenever he moves there. He also asked if i wanted to move up there and work for him... that would be just about the greatest thing in the world!

anyways, its late and the po-po's tailed me half way home and im stressed about my expired tags... down with the law!!

peace and love.

Number two


so, today, I think im going to drive up to Roswell to go get my wheel and tire from my friend Rob. He very kindly mounted one of his old tires he just replaced, onto my rim thats been missing a tire for about two months now. this is a great way to get a free, or cheap used tire, if you cant quite afford a brand new one just yet.

thanks rob, I owe you one for takin care of me in my time of need!!

on another note, i jsut got done building this lego set. Its set 6066 and its been about... 12 years or more since the last time i put it together... wow. this is like, one of my first ever lego sets i believe, and its been in pieces for years, until i got instructions and put it together late last night. its missing some pieces, but oh well...

i wonder if when lego designed this set, they had robin hood in mind, because the resemblance is uncanny! haha, maybe its just me, but i like the way the Lego company in the past, would make a not-so-obvious homage to movie and film characters without actually "selling out" and licensing the product with the film company. I miss the days of blatant representations of fictional characters without credit necessarily being given to the character its emulating. Im all for the new lego, but come on... spongebob, indiana jones, batman??? thats kind of lame...

what do you think??

Hello, hello. Welcome to my blog!

So, here I am... its 2.19 in the afternoon and Im here, creating a new blog.

just to give a little background here...

My name is Marc, and I am unemployed... sort of. This blog is going to be my jumping off point to share with you everything (good and bad) about being unemployed and trying to make a living "off the radar" so to speak.

I, like most of us web savvy people out there, am out of a job. I dont particularly enjoy working for other people, nor do I feel " a part of something bigger" working for a big money-hungry corporation... so Ive chosen to sell my life away on ebay... not literally, I actually sell mainly Lego and other miscellaneous items for a profit. Why Lego you ask? Well, I have a lot of it, simple as that.


Asside from that, I like to spend my time working on my car, enjoying my new found hobby of golf, and occasionally, actually going out and socializing.

now, you may be wondering... why am I reading this blog? well, Ill tell you why - its because you probably stumbled across this, and now have been sucked in by my majestic ways... yea right! I promise though, if you hang around, Ill give you something to do with your time, and maybe, just maybe, you can pick up some "off the radar" tips, or simply just learn from my mistakes and make your own life of unemployment a little bit more bearable.
