got sent home early today

we were badly overstaffed at work and I volunteered. Then I did some wicked sick napping for like 5 hours, it was great.

Hit 70!

and 2/3 of the way to 71, I feel like a champ.

still pluggin towatds 70

don't know when I'll make it.

turkey saps all energy...

So tired, going to hit the hay... Stuffed with poultry meat.

I am ready to eat some damned bird

OH YEAH. Making mashed potatoes and PIES!!!! Just a few more days and it's on.

I don't know what the cause is

but I am not feeling well today, I think it's the last vestiges of illnesss working their way out of my system. Not going to play any WoW or fallout tonight. Just sleep and maybe a scalding hot shower to perk me up.

In other news: My team's "shift bid" happened and it's like 80% people on the team keeping their same schedule, that includes me.

The post that would have been here was not possible due to firefox being on crack.

It crashed my computer literally every time I clicked on it. I finally got it fixed.

Twilight was very good

The movie did tend to center close in shots on peoples noses which, besides the soundtrack, may be my biggest complaint. They also chopped things up a bit and some detail was left out, but it did not detract significantly from the overall film.

Overall rating 7.2/10

still not 70+

fallout ate yet another evening of my life.

Speaking of eating, I am so looking forward to thanksgiving.

It's hard to get motivated

there seems to be no energy left in me, just enough to putter about and barely function. Probably from being sick lately.

fallout 3 is soul devouring

I woke up today and just stopped playing, it is hard to stop.

Shooting for that level 70 moon

I guess it's more like skylab now, but still. Hope to be hitting that shit by wednesday night.

Something topical goes here

Almost the weekend, plenty of reading, fallout and WoW time to use. Just got to get through monday.

Fallout 3 is bloody fantastic

I ended up playing for like 5 hours straight. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty straightforward and fun, also very visually appealing.

Quantum of Solace...

MORE LIKE QUANTUM OF FUCKING AMAZING. It takes off from where the last one ended (or not too long after), sets up at least another movie after it AND is enough of a self contained story that you could have missed the first one and it would still both make sense and be freaking awesome.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Really sick

Been Very, sick, so sick I had to leave work early.



EDIT: Apparently this didn't post and just saved, wierd

WOO DEATH KNIGHT!!!

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wrath of the lich king

It IS NIGH!!! Wednesday night, after 10pm I will be at gamestop waiting in line. YAY!

I have no impulse control when it comes to cute things

I have a ferret now, his name is toby.

Do you know what the best part about throwing up at work is?

The answer is: Being able to leave early and get no objections from managers or supervisors at all. The worst part is throwing up in a place that is marginally more comfortable than a doctor's office. all corporate and beige.

I got a new video card for my pc

But it needs a special adapter to work, so it'll have to wait to be used until I can get that.

tired

so very tired, maybe not do anything after work tomorrow.

er morgen ist paytag

YAY for PAY!! I'm so going to powells tommorow.

cleaned house

it's cleaner than it has been in a while. hope to keep it that way for a while.

WHOOOO!

Obama takes it, with nearly twice the electoral votes as McCain.

McCain's concession speech was pretty damned good. I look forward to big changes on the horizon. Big changes for the whole country.

election day

Gonna have cake and something on election day. I like food.

I need to get less grumpy

I'm starting to piss myself off with how crotchety I have been lately. I don't know what it is, other than a convocation of unrelated events that is causing it. But I know it needs to stop.

I also know that I'm probably pissing my friends off, so to them I say "Sorry Guys". To my sister I also say "Sorry for being a prick for no reason".

Fortunately for myself, and those around me, I feel a positive change on the horizon. I think that good things are coming everybody's way in the next couple of months, and I really think it will be possible to escape the bizarre slouch everyone is in.

In Political type stuff: My official prediction is that McCain will gain no more than 43% of the electoral vote. Which is pretty good considering I don't think the republicans are trying to win anymore. If you haven't yet, GET your ballot in. If you didn't get one, then head to the election office and have them give you a new one there. It's important.

Gas Prices continue to drop, with the lowest I have seen so far at $2.39 a gallon, at this rate we may be sub $2.00 by march. I, for one, do like getting around 4 gallons when I spend ten dollars.

In my job type stuff: They have eliminated the Helpdesk that they were cramming us into instead of our chats. This seems to be due to it being a violation of our contract with sprint. Which means the company is likely going to be penalized just like the last time this happened. To give you an Idea of what a penalty might look like, the last time this happened we lost more than I make in a year, before taxes.

Oh, one more thing. I'm getting a newer video card from a coworker, it's gonna run me $50. So why not.

Enough typing, it's bedtime. Goodnight everyone.

TIME TRAVEL

It is nigh upon the hour of the day. Soon we shall traverse rearwards through the unceasing chronological river, arriving a full 60 minutes before we departed. Chrononauts in every sense of the word.

Yay for 1 more hour of sleep tonight!
