…a long day living in Reseda…

Today seemed to drag on like no one remembered to feed the Hamster that keeps time moving along. I had to split my time between two clients today which allowed me to be out driving in the beautiful sun more than usual. However, problems at my first clients office kept me there until such a time that Chupacabra’s was packed and I had to drive while the Stupids were out in force.

m’eh, I got over it.

In other news, my new wheel for my bike (from Cambria Bicycle Outfitters ) will be here on the 8th. Hooray for new wheel! Boo for taking so long!

Jackie’s coming down for Independence Day! Less than 48hrs until I can giver her a hug for real!!!! I’m excited! And we’re going to get to hang out and do things! HOORAY Jackie!! I just wish that my wheel was here and she could bring her bike. Oh well, we’ll just have to be sure to go to Chicago for fun instead. We’ll be going to the Garfield Park Conservatory (I hope) on Sunday. That will be nice. I hope I can borrow a camera from someone so that I can take pictures too. Mi camera sucks, and I need all the help I can get if I don’t want to look next to Jackie’s pictures. 

and on that note…*disappears to bed*…

What.

Hooray for medicine and daily cleaning! Geordi’s ear is doing much better, and he hasn’t tried to kill me in my sleep yet. Both are very exciting accomplishments.

And now…..To work!

Say What?

So, here it is, a Saturday night and I’m posting in my blog.
What’s that you say? Why aren’t I out partying or doing something else exciting?
I respond, what’s not exciting about blogging? There are some similarities between the two, and even advantages to being here and blogging rather than out partying.  But, since this is the second or third time I’ve had to type most of this entry, I’ve decided not to list them
On to other things. An update for those whom wish to take the time to read it.

(more…)

Ok, so thanks to stalkerbook, I ended up at a site called Ctrl+Alt+Del and have subsequently spent the last two nights reading the comic. I’m addicted I think.

Stupid First Generation Razr

I have a new Phone number and my old phone is dead (as in non functional) so I can not retrieve my Contact list. If any one wants my new number, it’s on my Facebook Profile. I don’t have any of your numbers any more, so if you would like me to have them, feel free to share them via text, IM, email, or what ever.

also, you should check out the new chat functionality they addd to LJ HERE.

Baruk Khazâd!

So, I’ve been in IL for over 3 months now. It’s time for a status update.

It’s been a long three months, there’s been lots of driving to and from work sites, plenty of traffic, and more road construction that anyone should have to deal with every day for so long. I swear, sometimes it seems that the road crews take entire weeks off in order to not finish early. But of course if it weren’t for the construction, I’d probably never most of the sites I pass every day. Such as, the speed boat on a pole, or the building with the guide wires like those on the roof of a circus tent.

Work itself has been going well too. I’m working as a technology consultant and service provider. I currently focus on two clients, both of which manufacture lots of goodies, and their respective retail stores. The employees are mostly friendly, and the hours I’m working are centered around Traffic avoidance, thereby limiting some of the stress we have to put up with in our already stressful lives.

Since I don’t get out much, I’ve had to find ways to entertain myself to keep from getting stir crazy. Predominantly, I’ve been playing Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar. It’s a lot of fun and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes Lord of the Rings and/or MMORPG’s. It’s based on the lore from the books (The Hobbit, Fellowship of the Ring, Two Towers, and Return of the King) and does a really good job of staying true. I’ve also began playing Command and Conquer 3 which is also a very good game. I hope to try the multi-player some time with people I know, like we used to do with Generals Zero Hour. I don’t know however, how many, if any, have a copy which can be played online. I must say, that despite how good the game is, I still prefer C&C Generals ZH. I also open up my Sims 2 every so often. I even still have Sims characters in the works for many of you. If I didn’t take mug shots of you and you would like me to make one, All I need is a mug shot and profile close enough to get general details. When I get enough of them done, I plan on putting some kind of a photo album together on Facebook or LJ. I’ll post about it as it develops. For that matter, I can post as I create Sims, that’ll give me something to post about and it won’t seem as much like I’ve forgotten about the people I call friends.

In other news, I got to go skeet shooting for the first time ever. For that matter, I got to shoot something bigger than a .22 for the first time ever. It was a blast (pun intended). My hit miss ration was poor, though my first shot (with the gun that “hits hard”) was spot on. I’m happy I got to go, and hope to go again with Jackie sometime.

I’m also getting a new computer within the next week. The parts are all ordered and should be arriving this week or early next week. What I haven’t decided is whether to dual booth with Vista/XP or abandon XP since I’m already familiar with Vista. for anyone who might be interested, this is what my PC will have hardware wise:

New PC Parts

And on that note, I’m going to bed because despite the fact that I stayed up late, I still have to work.

Jackie:

Not sure as to where, but MTU, NMU, Penn Tech, and PSU. Major would have been Computer Science or Computer Engineering.

Next to you. Loving you.

Pleaser

I aim to please as an initial reaction. It’s who I am. Those of you whom were previously unaware of this, now you have been made aware. Those whom were aware and used it to your advantage, know that I do reflect on everything I do and if you are found to have been using me, your time will come.
You are reading my post. You are on my friends list.
I am tired of lame excuses.
If you are on my friends list, I hope you are actually my friend.
I am hungry. I get cranky when I am hungry.
If you see that someone missing from my “friend of” list, please have them check and add me.
I do not make many idle threats. If you feel threatened, then you probably are. If you are not sure, then you probably are not.
I long for a grapefruit!

10 Things

* List ten things you want to say to people but know you have not for one reason or another.
* Don’t say who they are, use people only once.

1. I think you and your daughters are psychotic, and guess what, so does everyone else.

2. I once thought that it was mean to wish death upon you with the passion with which I was doing so, but only because people told me. Now that you are actually dying, I don’t hate you, I just don’t care.

3. When we’re together, I can’t think of ever being apart.

4. Unclean! Unclean!

5. I’ve wronged you in a horrible way, and I’m pretty sure you know, but still you are my friend. To me, you are better than I feel I deserve.

6. The reason I gave you for staying was a lie, it was actually because I didn’t want to tell her the truth.

7. IYQ

8. You’re the only one who still dwells on it. No one else cares.

9. I really do appriciate you, but you’re still a dork. (teehee)

10. God Dammit, Shut up and stop whining for five minutes or I’ll never stop shooting you whilst you superbounce the crane.
