Okay, so I just realized I haven't updated since November 3rd - 3 days before my girlfriend got here. Very possible that spending time with her took up a good portion of that, as well as bullshit college having gotten in my way. I had to make sure I got in at least one more entry before 2010 turned over on the odometer. Hopefully everyone's excited ( Read more... )

So there's finally a little bit of good news on the horizon! Namely, I'm getting this weekend off by request, since my girlfriend is coming down to visit me. I'm reasonably sure I touched upon this in past entries so if you don't know, look it up turkies. It also gives me the time to dick around and enjoy myself, along with the promising experiment ( Read more... )

I can sense it in the air. Could it be? Oh yes it could! At long last, I'm coming up on my performance review at work, and there are indeed talks of raises. Now there's a very strong urge not to get my hopes up, but I can't help but feel relieved I might not have to look for another job. Sure I hate mine, but looking for something new is such a ( Read more... )

It really does hold the chance to be a good month, between talkin' to the Microsoft rep about some "good things" that may come our way, the fact that once my store manager returns I might get a raise, and the ever furthering of the passage of time where I partake in and expect positive things as per my grand, ever-temporary plan. Once more I've ( Read more... )

So I've noticed that it's been about two or so weeks since I've gotten back and still no response. Not to worry people; I'm not dead or anything. Rather, I've just been trying to get back into the swing of things while still remaining in some sort of control. You see, I wasn't really kidding (if I had mentioned it) about not getting shit for rest ( Read more... )

Sounds like a pretty cool string of words, eh? Maybe it could be an album or a song title if ever I get the chance to make it bigger than the slums and dregs of retail and tedious, meaningless chores. Nevertheless, this is my last entry before I'm going on vacation. As I mentioned before, you probably won't be hearing much - if at all - from me ( Read more... )

It's not hard to see what the title refers to. I was tested in the challenge of whether or not I deserve to be a green belt, and the result was victory! It feels good...heavy, but not unbearable. The test went very well; probably one of the best I've had so far (but of course not perfect by any means). I hit hard, I did my forms with as few ( Read more... )

Unless you've somehow been living under a rock or large land mass (or if a fat person has hibernated atop you), I'm now officially 26! It feels...no goddamn different, except I got a few presents, some birthday wishes, and the opportunity to go to my dead-end job and put up with preeeeetty much the same things I put up with all the time. Dad sent a ( Read more... )

...at least until I go to sleep, that is. So I hope everyone had an awesome 4th of July - fun, fireworks, all fingers, toes, and sexual appendages still in tact. I personally saw several myself whilst driving around, since other than work that's what I've been doing. There is - of course - reasoning for this, that being that my dad's temporarily ( Read more... )

Those of you who've been keeping up with me know that we're only a day and some change away from my LASIK surgery. I can safely say I'm both nervous and excited for the "zero day" where evolution will bring me a step further. I'm still hoping and praying (to whatever higher power still likes/tolerates what I do in this human vessel) that it all ( Read more... )
