Well, I had thought about posting a couple weeks ago, but what was happening was too difficult to think about at the moment, much less talk about over the interweb. It's still not behind me, but it's not quite as close ( Read more... )

There's honestly no other way to put this--earlier this morning, before I got to work, somebody jizzed on one of the chairs at the public computers. No one saw it actually happening, but when the next person in line got over there, they noted a disgusting looking substance on the chair. When the other people in my department looked at the chair ( Read more... )

I can't believe I waited this long to watch it, but I finally took Stephen Chow's film Lawyer Lawyer for a spin earlier tonight and I definitely enjoyed it. It was a bit uneven at parts and not nearly as funny as The God of Cookery or Shaolin Soccer, but still very memorable in parts, especially the part where a man takes a chicken leg he had ( Read more... )

Well, I'll get the first part out of the way first: the weekend went fine. Either my boss was in a good mood or now I've just managed to get used to her.

Well, I have admittedly been distracted with trying to get settled into my job but I've let my fantasy team slide way too long and I'm paying for it. And actually, I like the people I have in my team. Unfortunately, I managed to get three that are hurt--Tracy McGrady, Shaquille O'Neal, and Amare Stoudamire. They would be putting up some big ( Read more... )

I'd use this space to summarize what I do and do not like about my job, but to sum up: it's fine. There are some annoyances from day to day, but it's generally pretty pleasant work that I can deal with. I do want to get a full time job eventually, but for now it's nice to be able to go in at noon and have a day off every week ( Read more... )
