.....and bad things are an apendex. Namely, my apendex. Thursday morning I get up with a horrible searing pain in my abdomen. I try to get out of bed, and it gets worse. I curse at this, try to reach my boss (but to no avail), curse some more, and for some odd reason, start getting ready for work. I just kind of figured I'd play it by ear. Well ( Read more... )

I'm really quite pleased with how this turned out, actually. I'm gearing to take my final about a month early, and it has a tinge of "take that, bitch!" in it. After treating me like the village idiot in the beginning, it's kind of nice that I get to throw that back in her face by finishing the class before everyone else (including the class suck ( Read more... )

Bet mine was worse! After a long, painful, and all around stressful day, all I wanted was to go home and crack open a beer. Instead, I was greeted by the sight of my mangled bumper, a thing at the back of the car that is usually A) attached to the rest of it and (B) sort of, kinda, not resting on the ground and (C) usually in one piece. My bumper, ( Read more... )

So after a bit of a hiatus from school I'm back again. Decided to go for an Associate of General Studies, as I can roll my certification classes into this degree, so that's rather win-win (mostly). Case in point, the only non-elective I have left is one (count 'em one!) math class (d'oh). Ok, so I enroll in one called Career Mathematics. I'm ( Read more... )

So I'm talking to my boss(es) the other day and come to find out that my labs computers did, in fact, get replaced. This makes me rather happy. For about the two seconds that passed in between that thought and her next one. The next question that follows is where did I put/keep a list of the programs I was running in said lab BEFORE the replacement ( Read more... )

So when the break first began, it was great. No work, sleeping in, staying up late, etc. Just generally pissing away my days at home doing nothing was great. At first ( Read more... )

My friend broke up with his girlfriend last night. Rather, she broke up with him LATE last night. While he was on the phone I was killing time waiting for the conversation to end (in another room) to politely excuse myself as I was tired and had to be at work the next day (today as it were). The conversation ends, he comes back into the room and ( Read more... )

So this weekend was, um, something. Day 1 had me going out to Denver to meet a girl (or such was the plan). It's not that I didn't enjoy myself as a whole, at least a bit, but it was disappointing that I didn't meet anyone. This was largely do to the fact that the people we were there to meet were promised to be A) gorgeous and B) single. Most of ( Read more... )

It's been bothering me for a bit now. I've finally pinned it down. I'm just down-right jealous of my friend. He has a new girlfriend. In the time since I broke up with my last one he's now had 4. Frankly, I'll admit I'm rather jealous of this ( Read more... )

I love that joke. It annoys people before you even hit the punchline ( Read more... )
