(no subject)
So, since it's the night before my birthday, I'm bored, and I haven't used any of this social networking crap in a long time, some updates. (Mostly because I'm bored.)
I worked at Staples again. Then I remembered why I hated it there and got a job at Best Buy. The catch? I'm selling TVs. Which, guess what, I hate. There's a Barnes and Noble opening at the mall that I was in a job faire for, and a night auditor position open at a small hotel about a minute from my development. I'm hoping for the night auditor position. It may be third shift, but it's not retail (the underline means it's important to me) and third shift would actually mesh well with my current college schedule.
Still no progress on any of the projects I actually want to do. Lots of ideas, but I always get new ones and the old ones dry up that quick.
School. School is, well. I'm stumbling through it. I really should not have taken the time off that I did after high school, because now I'm struggling to try and get back into the school mindset and not exactly succeeding. I'm majoring in Human Services now, to hopefully become a high school guidance counselor. Because let's face it, making a living writing is a pipedream that only the most talented can achieve, and I'm nowhere near the word "talented".
Kanye. I really think I'm sorry man, I'ma let you finish, but Angry Video Game Nerd had the best rant of the year! (I'm sorry. I had to. And Kanye is a jackass.)
The LL Cool J NCIS thing: Not nearly as bad as I expected. I rather enjoyed it, actually.
Heroes: I don't think they intended for me to laugh every time I saw "Nathan" onscreen, but that was my reaction all the same. Still. I'll watch, if only to see them wreck more terribly than the train in season 1. (Do you see what I did there? Train and wreck. I am implying in a faux subtle fashion that the show is a train wreck. I am so clever!)
Supernatural: My friends and I are still catching up on season 4, though I know what happens at the end and I know roughly what went down in the first episode of season 5. Truthfully, the show's gotten predictable, but it's still leaps and bounds better than most crap on TV today.
Drew Barrymore and Ellen Paige making out: Y'know, I feel that this is something I can really get behind. (Badum-PISH!) (The only reason this even gets a comment is 'cause I just saw it on Colbert and wanted something else to put here.) (But seriously, wink-wink, nudge-nudge, MIRITE?)
Disney buying out Marvel: As long as Disney holds to its promise not to interfere, great. A bigger budget for the movies, an established animation studio for the more obscure characters (although I doubt we'll see Pixar putting their name on Hank Pym slapping the shit out of his wife) and a company that is infinitely better and more experienced with marketing than Marvel is. Oh, and Disney can kill anyone involved with the Spider-Man comics right now, because any stories after "Spidey makes a deal with essentially the devil" are, well, born of a bullshit concept. (Although if Pixar did decide to commit suicide, putting their name on Hank Pym slapping the shit out of Janet would just about do the trick. Bonus un-points if they put their name right on his hand.)
My 360: Stop overheating, you asshole. I would like to play Ghostbusters without you overheating in the first ten minutes.
I am pretty much just typing to hear myself type at this point. Also if you are not watching Fringe you need to start watching Fringe because it is awesome but if you do you need to get the first season because JJ is not historically very good at making shows that are easily understood from a middle-point.
Also, and this is just something that those who know what I'm talking about will get and those that don't, won't: When your only solution to your problems is detonating a hydrogen bomb, it may be time to seriously consider suicide as an alternative option. Although I would still hit the thing with a rock because man, what a way to go.
