So basically, fall had a lag spike and just decided to up and arrive outta nowhere, like a fart in a crowded elevator, over the course of one night of solid rainfall here. It's really goddamn weird, but I'm reasonably sure that the season otherwise known as autumn is upon us, and it pisses me off. It's not so much the weather as it is the fact that ( Read more... )

That essentially translates to "school eats up my fucking time", which would explain why I'm a little late in writing this. It also has a little bit to do with the fact that I've gotten my "tech itch" back, so I've been looking at laptops and PC components again. Obviously, I'm not gonna be buying a goddamn thing, but it's usually fun (and free) to ( Read more... )

Not only is that a fun phrase for a shirt (like the one I just got), but it's also handy fuckin' advice for karate class. Praise Jeebus I was wearing my cup, but damn my honesty for admitting it to a second degree brown belt. The favor was returned, and it turned into a pretty funny after-class conversation, but that's just a small occurrence in ( Read more... )

Turns out my Metallica CD was rather useful in a business deal I was technically forced to make. One of my managers, who's a HUGE fan of the band has this pen, right? It's a wicked sweet $40 steel-cased pen - the Excalibur of pens, pretty much. Turns out that because my copy of Death Magnetic is simply in a hard case, he wants to trade me. I ( Read more... )

And still, they're probably the most bought-up stuff, unless you count people who do the online download thing (NOT pirating, as that doesn't require money). I myself took a $10 risk and got the new Metallica album. I'm not a huge, "have all the albums and seen all the shows" fan, but I like them as a band, and this new CD seems to be pretty good.

It's rather true. Between work, school, and karate I think I'd most enjoy being at my martial arts. School isn't actually that bad - in fact, having no Biology homework, and enjoying my Theatre and Public Speaking class, it's going rather well for the moment. Work...well, we all know the bullshit that brings along. I'm gonna try desperately not to ( Read more... )

Sorry for the overabundance of optimism, but I can't help but feel a little bit unsure of how this semester's gonna go. So far, I've only got 2 of 3 classes, so I've gotta try to orange card on Wednesday. Fucking figures that the one to round it out wasn't taught at the campus I'm going to. Either way, there's unfortunately no way to reverse time, ( Read more... )

Well, the good news is, I'm still on vacation. The bad news however, is that this is the last week of vacation. As you all know, work had robbed me of that first week privilege, but the re-good news is, I found out that for Christmas break, we get three weeks and not two like I'd previously thought (a though which, in itself, was wrong; last year ( Read more... )

So, my people...what is up!? For me, I've finally gotten to the point where I intended to take something of a vacation. Did I get it offhand? No...of course not. What the hell would ever cause you to believe that somehow, people remember when I request things and expect them to respect such pleas? Surely not the law of averages! Sarcasm aside, I ( Read more... )

So yeah...for some reason, when someone had commented on my last entry, I thought I'd forgotten to put in on Monday. What's worse is, because this past week was finals week, it didn't take much convincing on my part to make myself believe it. Nevertheless, that wasn't the case, I'm here, and I'm fucking free!!! Yeah, it's only for three weeks, but ( Read more... )
