So sometime near the middle of January, I will be unemployed. Media Play is closing down and not just one store but all stores nationwide. I found out yesterday and it came as a bit of a shock but it really hasn't sunk in yet. while i was on register yesterday there was a regular who I was ringing up that saw Lon pass and told him "i heard about ( Read more... )

sorry but i'm not real steady with this whole updating the live journal thing. i finally did a myspace, mostly out of pressure from the fans, so my journal kind of got pushed to the side. work is starting to get really hectic with christmas coming up. i've spent the past couple days training new employees which is starting to get on my nerves.

Gotta update update. more of the same. let's see, where to begin. bought some stuff over the past week. some tarantino DVDs, specifically the Kill Bills and Pulp Fiction and if you are reading this and you have some good recommendations for some DVDs to buy please tell me, I'm in the market. bought far cry instincts for the xbox and it turned ( Read more... )

they've bumped me up to 5 days a week now at media play and i'm not sure if it's a permanent thing or if it's temporary. i like working there but i don't know if i like 5 days a week. they really need to hire some cashiers already cause i'm getting sick of covering the register. the other night was quite funny though because i'm on the register ( Read more... )

Finally got the iPod yesterday. had more money coming to me from my paycheck then i thought which was pretty sweet. not really a ton to report other than work and the return of hockey. it's good to be able to watch the wings again on tv. got tomorrow off work which is good cause i hate working sundays. V & B thought they were quite funny today ( Read more... )

Today i had the day off of work and me and the v went on a quest. it started at media play where i hoped to use my employee discount but we were sold out. then the quest moved to best buy (the sworn enemy of media play) but they were also unable to provide us with our goal. next we drove to record time and as predicted they were out of stock.

the new carpet that v & i recently purchased is now soaked with water. we're not talking a little damp by the laundry room, we're talking the drain over in the main area backed up and my bedroom is now soaked. v & i are just sitting down here, he's on xbox and i'm on the computer and i turn my head and the carpet has puddles on it. in a way that ( Read more... )

I know i haven't updated in a while but there really hasn't been that much to talk about. mostly have spent the past week or so working and when i'm not working sitting around playing NHL 06. my alarm didn't go off on monday morning so i was an hour late for work which my manager mike murphy thought was funny. he wasn't mad that i was late he ( Read more... )

I was in some serious pain on saturday. after work on friday i came home and watched tommy boy with V & B and then went to bed around one in the morning. so i wake up at like five in the morning and the lower left side of my back is in throbbing pain. i have never in my life experienced pain like i felt then. first i tried stretching hoping ( Read more... )

So we're back from a couple days in caseville and overall it was a nice relaxing trip. some good moments like the shadow puppets, the creepy lions guy, the ehh backwoods sign and of course the flashlight. watched the VMAs at D's cott since gina's has no cable tv. a decent show. good to see some of the perfomances like g day and the killers and ( Read more... )
