Somewhere between both jobs and slowly packing I found time to buy the ASUS WL-330gE. I plan to use it as a replacement for my Encore ENRXWI-G which broke on me a few weeks back. Actually I couldn't reconfigure nor reset it to work with my 360, so I tossed it across the room and that was the end of that. For a while the product had been ( Read more... )

The hours at both jobs have eased up a little on some days. At my worst I find myself working from 9am to 12:30pm with a short break in between then it's work from 1pm to 10pm (with a half hour break) at UPS. But so far those days seem limited to Mondays, but retail is a pain because of the constantly changing schedule. Fortunately, I believe I'm ( Read more... )

Working all day on Saturday is pretty damned tiring. I'm glad I don't have to work tomorrow but a follow up at PetSmart then a double at UPS is going to suck. At the very least the managers did honor my request to work fewer hours until the moving situation is cleared up. So hopefully I'll be working the minimum amount of hours until October. After ( Read more... )

This is definitely a venting entry, feel free to skip it if you wish ( Read more... )

Here goes another attempt to write in my LJ, shooting for several times a week. I hope this succeeds. Still, random updates are better than no updates, right?

I survived training at PetSmart, but the videos were shoot-yourself-in-the-head-possibly-Persona 3-style bad, as all training videos are. The only problem was instead of one or two old ( Read more... )

I'm off to Otakon. For various reasons we'll be making the trip in my car. It's a little strange to be going in July instead of August, but as a result the weather is a little cooler.(Although summer here has been unusually cool.) As far as vacations go, my time off from work has been the most stressful I can remember. Right up there with my ( Read more... )

I'm not sure if I mentioned it, but back in April I won a copy of the hard-to-find-at-a-reasonable-price Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2 on eBay. The seller shipped my package off on the same day that I won it, and I waited and waited for it to arrive from Texas. A month rolled by and the package never came. When I e-mailed the seller he ( Read more... )

Last week was horribly busy, and this week looks as if it might be more of the same. The only break I get is the fact that I don't have to be to work until 1:45 tomorrow for a double shift, and other than a trip to the eye doctor (my eyes have been bothersome lately) I can relax on Friday before work. At the very least, the highlight of the weekend ( Read more... )

In the end the people did come to see the house, they just happened to be two hours late due to the sudden rainstorm. And the rainstorm itself was like a gift from above, as it chased annoying neighbors and people back into their homes. So far the man who saw the house seemed to like it (though he was on his way to another house) and wants to come ( Read more... )

There's nothing quite like being woken up at 8am on a Saturday morning to find out people are stopping by to see the house later in the day. I suppose I really didn't need to sleep in, nor get on with my plans to do laundry and run some errands in the morning. At the very least, having people drop by motivated me to get dressed a tad earlier and to ( Read more... )
