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…

Round and round, we go; up and down; we go
Almost reached my limit this week. Had a few things already brewing after an intense weekend, and a couple of surprise freeze warnings threw me completely off my game. AND IT’S NOT EVEN WINTER YET! Fuck… Looking back just a few days ago, what a difference between the today, yesterday and tomorrow. Sometimes all you…

What to watch? Easy, go to “My List”
The comfort I find in rewatching old series and movies is unparalleled. There’s no other feeling like it. In the (almost) infinite amount of content to stream at the touch of your fingertips. I can’t just start watching what the algorithm recommends me, what all other people are watching, what I think I may like…

Untitled [winter in autumn] Tuesday
![Untitled [winter in autumn] Tuesday](https://bustibusti.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/2013_2.jpeg?w=862)
Maybe reaching creative rock bottom is part of the next phase, sort of destroy to create, and from nothing something started and became all. The truth is, it’s a full blank canvass, and there’s not a single thing in it, just emptiness. I’m guessing it’s yet another stage I have to suffer through before being…
