I've taken to driving a cab a couple of nights a week for almost a month now. The investments are not paying and I shouldn't deplete the capital anymore. All toward toward expenses, which still add up even though the house and car are paid for.
Consequently, the working hours - from 4 pm to 4 am - has me defaulting to that schedule through the week. Quite the homebody, reading and watching videos. Except for the coffee places, haven't gone out at all, though not much beyond the tedious happening.
I've thought about blogging on driving - the people encountered, maybe ask for a photo - but can only imagine the complications. Had a thought too that getting around might afford opportunity to take pictures; not really - much focused on being dispatched and making money. There's not much beyond the tedious there as well. Nothing interesting about inebriates.
That's the floor I'm staring at while sitting near the "cage" waiting for a cab. I like it, driving, despite the risks and the hit or miss of a busy night. Most are quite lucrative. I really don't want to work for anyone and certainly have no desire to involve myself in business.
So the social life revolves around a coffee place open until midnight. Use the WiFi to download movies and keep up with breathtaking events. That's one of the expenses I can entertain now (or soon), getting a plug-in modem and buying wireless myself. (On dial-up; the premium paid for speeding it up by compression not worth a shit.) Just trying to factor whether I should give up the wired phone too. Combination of the telephone and ISP accounts is the same cost as the WiFi service. Not to mention saving on all that coffee. Did get a nice shot of an unfortunate tree outside of one of the places.
