We all know that, in The Empire Strikes Back, Leia tells Han, "I love you," and Harrison Ford famously improved the line, "I know." What we don't know are some of the improved lines that didn't make the cut. Until now. Enjoy ( Read more... )

Yesterday Becky and I went to C2E2(Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo). It was a big convention in Chicago that mainly focused on comics and webcomics. We got to meet some of our favorite webcomic authors and get some cool original artwork from a couple of them. We also got to meet George R. R. Martin, one of Becky's favorite authors, and ( Read more... )

So for anybody who doesn't know: I am now living with Becky. I've got all of my stuff here, I have my own set of keys, and aside from cleaning and one or two non-critical items, I have no reason to go back to my old place. It's about as official as can be. Unless you count a lease.

Cuddles every night is awesome.

Yesterday I did a little reading about the health care bill, and on top of that I got two calls at work where I had to listen to people who were on the OTHER side(read: WRONG side ( Read more... )

I am square in the middle of my first week on the call floor at Captel. So far things have been going pretty good, though something funny happened the other day ( Read more... )

Today I went in to talk to my boss about my schedule this week. Turns out it was the result of a miscommunication. Somebody's going on vacation next week, but they thought he was leaving this week, so they only gave him one day. When they realized this, they let him rearrange the schedule and he took some of my hours. I didn't have a lot to ( Read more... )

So you all heard about how I got a new job and quit Shuttle. Well here's how the owners reacted when they couldn't convince me to stay. My schedule for this week: Monday 5-10, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday off, Sunday 5-9. I've got nine hours for the whole week! And I could see that they originally had me on for Monday and ( Read more... )

Last Friday Captel called and officially offered me a job. I'll be starting training on Jan 4th at $8 an hour(which is what I'm making now), and when I'm done with training I'll get $9.50.

Lately I've been getting sick of Pizza Shuttle. At first it was nice, because I was on mornings, which meant that I woke up in the morning and went to bed at night and got to see daylight and hang out with my friends when they were actually up and about like a normal person. Also, I almost never had to work a 12 hour shift ( Read more... )

The other day, Becky and I decided to have a movie night. She wanted something with lots of explosions, so we got Die Hard and Robocop. It was a good night.

Yesterday we went to my dad's place for a nice dinner. He had a bunch of seafood shipped in from Boston. We had clams, some clam chowder, lobsters, and brownies. So much food. So
