Playing catch-up with random thoughts

• I watched Hung on HBO last Sunday. First off, love Thomas Jayne; he's a comic geek and an excellent actor. Bonus for me to find out that the series is set in Detroit! OH! It was so good to see my old stomping grounds. So much has changed with the casinos (I left before they came into the downtown), but Harpo's looked good.
• T-minus twenty-four plus hours until I meet my step-daughter. I still have no bloody fucking idea what to do.
• For dinner last night, I made omelettes. You know, I'm not half bad at making them with sliding the egg out of the skillet and folding it over. Cheddar Cheese and bacon was our choice ingredients. Sausage links and hashbrowns were on the side. Not only was dinner excellent, we had fun making it.
• The most underrated television show on network television is The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. I'm watching a re-run of a show I watched barely a month ago. I am laughing like crazy.
• Work is still the same. I should say, I am having problems not caring (as directed by my supervisor). The move of our servers, switches and routers into the new building (and as I continue, please keep in mind that we have laid-off twenty people and furloughed another thirty-eight since March) went horribly. Our Recording Department was down for four days. We still have applications that connect to the State that do not work. I had to literally tell the Network Supervisor that he would have to contact one of our clerks to tell them that they're responsible for reestablishing the network connection to the State because I couldn't do it (and no one above me was saying a damn thing). What I wears me out so much every day is not caring. I enjoy doing a good job. I love helping people. I hate this job because I can't do either.
• No wonder I am home sick today.
• Apparently, the work on clearing up our credit has worked. We were able to help the boy receive a loan for his remaining college cost. I cannot tell you how good that feels.
• Why am I watching Guiding Light? Oh, it's Bauer BBQ time. Man, the show has changed the way it films. It looks weird. However, it's the same old fights and the same old stories.
• My son is playing table-top-style D&D online with his friends. I haven't pulled the details out of him yet of how he's capable of doing this, though he did mention they found an online dice rolling application. I am very curious because I know a great many table-top rollplaers and I am married to one of the best GM evah.
• Speaking of role-plays, I am getting the itch again to try a posting, online RP. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can hear you: I haven't had the best experiences with this, but I love the idea of building story with a group of people and interacting in character. When it's good and flowing, nothing turns me on creatively more than that. When it's bad, it's all about players getting their emotional rocks off through their characters - and when they don't get what they want when they want it, they abandoned the RP without word or responsiblity. I hate that. I want to build story and look at a world through another's eyes. It's impossible to find an online RP that isn't filled with flaky, Mary-Sues interested only in themselves.
• Okay, I'm going to go lie down for a while.
