A week and a half ago, I got an abscess on my side from an ingrown hair. I saw the ingrown hair and thought I had dug it out and cleaned it out real well. I guess I hadn’t and got a fucking quarter sized abscess on my side. It was pretty gross. Spewed nasty blood and puss for a week straight. I’m finally on the mend now. Almost healed up. Not sure if it will leave a scar. Sorry no pics.

I’m debating on whether I should keep going with my business or shut it down and get a full time job. I can no longer afford health insurance. I can’t afford to move out and get my own apartment, noless an office or retail space somewhere. Central Maine might not be the answer for me. I guess I’ll keep toughing it out.

Here’s a pic for your enjoyment:

So I saw Mushroomhead, Soil, The Autumn Offering, and Brand New Sin last Friday at Ushuaia’s in Orono. Was a good show. I was allowed to bring in my camera, so I took a bunch of pictures. Here are the best ones out of the lot:



The second picture is my favorite. In fact, one of my favorite pictures I’ve ever taken. I took it with a Canon S500 point and shoot camera. The club was dark with a smoke machine. So I could not use my flash. However, I like how the camera focused in on the face of the lead singer in the foreground. Plus how I got him in the photo. All in all, third time seeing Mushroomhead. Probably my favorite out of those three shows.
In other news, I ordered and had Verizon DSL installed. The dynamic ip business package for $49.95. So far so good. Much less latency than Time Warner and so far more stable. I’m happy with it.
