Wait, why are their achievements for not doing things? Almost makes me proud to live in a world with no achievements.

From my point of view, things are looking up! Yes, I realize you don't want to be single. But I think being employed is better than being in a relationship, especially when the employ isn't involving soul sucking retail...

BTW, it's your turn.

well, they don't ever have achievements that are worth negative points. but they do have achievements for not doing things! usually they are things that are bad to do (like kill little girls for money) or things that make the game way easier (like "shoot a gun" during HALF-LIFE: EPISODE 1: GUNSHOOTER).

I still say a good hug in the right relationship is better than a paycheck (even one with overtime AND Holiday Pay) but I see your point.

Well my hugs are free. But you cannot eat them so ... I think you should be happy with the paycheck.

Holiday Pay?!? They're not making you work on ... Labor Day?

good memories: check! true love: um.

I still have no personal evidence that true love can blossom in any situation other than one that is disastrous and doomed, but maybe that's why they call true love "passionate." you know... flames of love! like the flames that burn down apartment buildings.

(okay I probably do not know what love is exactly but I DO know the difference between love and an apartment building.)

the robot is still there. it has been upgraded from a million-dollar table that does nothing to a multi-million-dollar table with more wires on it that, um, can sometimes put stickers on things. so the only job it's successfully eliminated is the one that was too tedious even for far west employees (except for my friend Mikie who loved putting the stickers on, for fuck's sake). so hooray! we've staved off the robopocalypse by a good five years, at least.

You know, I know a couple of guys who could probably make the damn thing ... work / not work forever. But for as much as I love robots (even those that don't dance, walk, and go up and down stairs) ... people are so much cheaper.

Does this mean there will be post-its?

if you're living some groundhog year, does this mean i should be coming over for bi-weekly massages? because I didn't get that memo, and i'd hate to fuck up any system you have resorted back to.

im moving out of g-town soon... well... hopefully. I'm out of this place August 31st [so come abuse my hot tub while i have it!], and if i dont get the apartment I have applied for then I am going to be living in my car until we find a place. Either way, I'd like to see you again, friend.

Oh ack! I do not check my LJ often enough for it to function as a communication tool when time-sensitive issues are involved!

He said, using LJ as a communication tool. Er... I'll just text you.
