Wednesday night I hunkered down and watched three of the four movies I got yesterday ( Read more... )

I putzed around at home for a bit, then realized that I needed to get my toy bag in better order. Fifteen minutes later I gave up looking for my soft cuffs and headed off to the dungeon to setup for the party. I got there a little after 7 and found another group (the ALT Munch) still in session (That's funny, I didn't see anything on the SOJ or ( Read more... )

Drunk night was awesome. After work, I swung by Luckys and picked up some alcohol and a tray of sandwiches. When I got home, I cleaned the downstairs and made an attempt to pick up my room. I got a call from E saying she'd be showing up around 8. B showed up at 5 and proceeded to get hammered on some very yummy port he brought. I took it slow ( Read more... )

Holy shit I was going nuts at training today. It was a ton of role playing and going over subjects that I am *not* going to teach. Why the fuck do I need to learn this? I expected it to last until 7:30. I did not expect it to go over by 30 minutes or to be scheduled last for the role playing (Meaning, the faster I went, the faster I could get ( Read more... )

Come one, come all to a B.Y.O.B. (Bring yer own booze) party at my place on Saturday August 23rd. I'm planning on being home by 5:00 so if you're in the area and want to hang out, come on down. I am at a loss as to what options people want for food and entertainment (and you can't just suggest me for both). I live right down the street from a ( Read more... )

The volunteer party tonight was fun. Evil Bastard invited me along and I jumped at the chance to get an endorphin rush. I got there right at 8 just as a discussion group of some sort was breaking up. E.B. was running a bit late, so I chatted it up with someone I really hadn't seen in a while. I wish we had more time to talk and share, but E.B. ( Read more... )

Work on Saturday was short. For the past three weeks, my last two tables have been closed. I don't really mind because it's just two hours. Plus, Saturdays tend to pick up in the summer. I skipped out visiting S at LM's per her advice on Friday. It was weird driving past the exit on Saturday afternoon but I had other things on my mind ( Read more... )

I actually didn't psych myself up for the party tonight, and now I'm really glad. I got off work right on time (due to only having one student at my last table) and zipped on home making a quick stop off at the video store and McDonalds. When I got home, I forgot that I also needed to swing by OSH in order to get a part I needed for the ( Read more... )

Ah, today actually started late last night. I finally figured out how to get Babcom to talk to the iMac via a crossover cable. Babcom was having some trouble starting up, so I left it for the morning. When I awoke the next morning, I raced downstairs and started working on the transfer. I had the iMac aka PPS (Purple Piece of Shit) log into ( Read more... )

Thanks to a very generous friend I have a new (to me) computer. Since 2003, I've been tooling around on a grape iMac (the purple makes it go faster) running OS 8.6 (I refused to upgrade to 9.2 due to it being extremely unstable.). Slowly, over time, my internet functions were dwindling. As the technology to make the internet bigger, better and ( Read more... )
