130 Days to #vanlife

Shout out to my dude James for giving me the inspiration to start this.

My plan for this blog is for it to be a place I can dump my thoughts, record my days, express ideas, and eventually be a place to document life on the road.

Today is Friday and I spent 10 hours in a small conference room at a car dealership for work. I have been sitting in small conference rooms for the past two weeks at various dealerships. This will continue for the following couple weeks before I am back into my cubicle without any windows for the remainder of tax season. I hate to complain about because I am doing better than most and I worked really hard to get to where I am. I just can't shake the feeling that I am wasting my life sitting in a cube all day. There is so much more to life than that. I have plans to solve this and it all starts with the van life. I just need to be a little more patient.

After working all day I went to the gym and ran 3 miles. It felt great but I have been extremely tired this whole week and motivation is hard to find. I haven't been sleeping much either, I think this is because of my long days. I want to unwind and do the things I enjoy when I get home, but I am not getting home until 7-8pm. After making dinner and settling in its already 9 and then a couple a tv shows later its 11 or 12. 6am comes fast the next day. Maybe my body will adjust to less sleep, otherwise I may have to start making some sacrifices.

I have been reading (listening to audio books) lately. I've been working my way through all the Witcher books and almost done with book 6. I also recently finished "To Shake the Sleeping Self" which is about a guy quitting his job at age 30 and biking to Patagonia in 16 months. It was amazing and very inspiring. It got me way too excited for the life I am planning.

I ordered UberEats tonight because fuck it, its Friday and I am tired. No regrets.

As I type, James and I are talking ourselves out of doing a half iron-man and I am so happy we are lol

I am going to finish my night with some TV shows. I recently finished both seasons of Sex Education. It was a weird but hilarious, I enjoyed more than I would like to admit. I think I am going to start watching The Clone Wars TV show.



Here is a pic of Tammy right after I got her.
