October 31st
No Halloween celebration for me, paying the bills and working every day is already spooky enough. Just the thought of putting in MORE effort to get dressed up, actually spending money to finish your outfit, and then going to X/Y party and/event to socialize ON A WEEKNIGHT, is a hard hard pass… But no worries,…

Instead of talking about other people, try wasting your time on social media or STFU
Every time I remember or confirm it again, I will repeat the exact same words: People who talk about other people are either leading boring lives (and/or hate what they do) or feel the genuine need to cause drama out of envy, jealousy, or good old-fashioned, wanting to screw with other people’s business. Unless, of…

Eat right, say no to fast-foods
I have come to the conclusion that no fast-food actually tastes good. It’s just junk food that gives your body some instant satisfaction once ingested, but ends up rejecting once it is assimilated. I have sampled almost all of them, over and over again, in an experimental and organized way. 1-2 times a month, I…

A [short] reflection on mistakes, time and money
![A [short] reflection on mistakes, time and money](https://bustibusti.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/bearing_weight.jpeg?w=1024)
Mistakes cost lives, money and time. Lives are the most horrible because when they are lost and, they never come back, causing pain to everyone near and dear. Time passes without being able to stop. Time that wasn’t well-spent does not necessarily mean time wasted. When you lose in life, at least you gain a…

To pizza or not to pizza; that is the question
A client left me a full box of pizza in the fridge. “Hey, we ordered two of them, and only ate one. Feel free to help yourself to the other one. We’re certainly not going to eat it.” Why?! Why would someone just offer me 8 slices of gourmet pizza? Is this a sign? Is…

Getting sick? No thanks, not even during cold/flu season
I get sick maybe 1-2 times a year with the common cold that lasts 1-3 days. If I’ve gotten the flu, maybe it lasted 3-5 days, and then I would continue as if nothing happened (although the first two days have strong symptoms). How do I do it? Easy: If I get sick: It could…

Writing hack UNLOCKED
After over 300 posts, I found the secret to always having something coherent to say/write and not make you suffer while reading my ramblings. Here it goes… When I don’t have anything to say, when it’s hard for me to express myself (wanting to do it, of course. The nights I don’t want to do…

Think it (or feel it), write it, do it every day, then again, and again, and again…
There is so much to be said.I mean, smart things to be said (or written).And I bet that more than 60% of my posts are rant-complaints, 30% are depressing personal content (and more complaints) and maybe, just maybe, 10% have some kind of literary value. At least I take solace in knowing they’re 100% honest,…

Strange, nice and productive Saturday
Almost any sleep last night thanks to inconsiderate neighbors. Had a nice big breakfast and hit the road. 250 miles driven, got shit done, and almost 8 hours after my first meal, I had a huge mexican banquet for dinner. Can’t complain. Now a nightcap and some more than deserved shuteye. Tomorrow is race Sunday!

Are we at the bottom yet?
Spent about 3 hours today (and a hell lotta money) balancing the embarrassment that is my current stocks portfolio. Did a good job (considering my liquidity). But It’s bad, and it keeps getting worse. Incredibly enough, I could have cashed out a few weeks ago and break even overall, turning profits on a couple of…
