So I think I'm going to take a Warcraft time out. The entire game is just pissing me off. I'm not thrilled with the guild, and most of the time I'm playing it I feel like it's more of a chore. I've also recently discovered that I still know next to nothing about the goddamn game. Since something that makes me feel retarded is not fun and I only ( Read more... )

I guess it's been a week since I updated. The snowboarding day with Zbegner was pretty fucking awesome. We hit the slopes of Sawmill around 10:30 a.m. The drive up was a bitch because it was snowing and the roads were bad from previous snowfall, so it was a good thing he defied his parents and took the truck. I was originally worried that I'd ( Read more... )

Another week gone by. Today was the best day of work ever. Restraint and CPR training at the main office. The best part was, I've never had CPR certification in my life. I feel like they're supposed to pull out dummies and show you how to do the chest compressions and breathing and such. Nope. They assumed we'd all had CPR before, so they ( Read more... )

Last week was a new adventure in the chronicles of trying to help children, and it was an interesting study in the effects that biology can have on behaviors. My God, what a crazy week. But at least we got to sit around at supervision, talk about nothing that involved work, and best of all get paid for it. I totally love my job. I feel like I'm ( Read more... )

Ultimately, everything worked out as far as my work-related woes were concerned. Or rather, that particular problem area. My hours have changed, so I now go to school half an hour later and I've picked up five hours with him a week in the home. The problem is actually setting those hours up. There is a new and exciting problem from the week so ( Read more... )

...require that I only say this about my day:

AW FUCK.

Quote of the day: Are you fucking serious?

I guess it's been three weeks since I've said anything here. Not a whole lot is new though. I love my job. Most days I feel like I'm making a difference in a positive way. The remaining days are more of a struggle--it's frustrating to know that there's only so much I can do. There's so much I can't fix, and sometimes I feel like I'm on the ( Read more... )

It was quite an eventful year. I brought in 2007 in Beech Creek playing Flip Cup and dancing with the original Fab Five, then sitting on the couch eating the best Sheetz hoagie I've ever had while the DD chased the runner across the Jay St. bridge. This year, the Fab Five were different, but just as good. And of course we were at the Saloon ( Read more... )

My birthday party was every bit the shit show I dreamed it would be, and more. Despite my being a bad friend and forgetting about Heather's graduation party (she's a teacher now--yay!), when I left her house (I made it, but late) she even sent me home with macaroni salad, cheese, and the blessed, blessed barbeque ( Read more... )

Supervision was not interesting at all for the most part. The only thing worth mentioning is that no one ate any of my apple crumb pie. I don't know if it was just unappealing (I thought it looked awesome) or no one felt like it or what, but I was kind of sad. Next time we have some kind of office anything, I'm going to say, "Fuck that shit" and ( Read more... )
