Sick --cough cough--
As usual, I am told I should update. So let's hit this in a reverse chronological order...
This morning, I awoke at 5 till 6 and was supposed to be at work at 6. If I am late too many times (as in two more) I can be fired. So, what did I do? I called in sick. Calling in sick is okay. Being twenty minutes late isn't.
I've been working close to 40 hours every week as Staples which is great cause we need the money.
I started going to fire calls again. Already had one lady die. Another drunk guy punched out a glass door. He bled a little. Haven't been to a fire recently. That's almost sad. Its a lot like having sex. Once you've been in a burning building, completely blind cause of the smoke, heart racing, carrying an air pack with an hour's air that'll be gone in 15 minutes, you have to do it again. Afterall, who has sex only once?
I have been on the computer but its been all technical. I'm working on switching 95% percent of what I do over to Linux and escaping Windows. I'll keep Windows for copying DVD movies. This means a lot of reading and playing and installing. Oh, and screwing up the internet in the apartment.
I decided to take a semester off cause I haven't been doing so well in college anyway. I'll be going to Ivy Tech and doing at least a couple classes this fall. I still intend on having a degree eventually. I am not 100% positive in what area but I'm sure it'll involve (a) safety/firefighting/EMS, (b) computers/networking, or (c) business. Perhaps a nice thereof.
Lori and I moved in with her sister (who usually isn't there). Its really nice. Um, having the apartment and living together. The lack of money resulting for the situation is less than desireable.
My future happenings:
1. Working on a church computer today which mostly just involves transferring files from an old Win95 system. This computer is so old its using a processor my computer had in 1988. They definitely need the upgrade.
2. Exercise. I'd like to really get in shape. I weigh 150 now. I'd like to gain about 20 lbs (10 kg) of muscle mass. All naturally of course. No steriods. Perhaps some vitamins since I'm vegetarian.
3. Actually make the switch to Linux and e-mail Bill Gates about it.
4. Update my site. This will involve (a) format/design update and (b) new articles/materials. See the site at ChrisMarts.hostiz.com.
5. Write on here more. I've been playing on Stumbeupon which is awesome but none of my old friends are on there.
