(no subject)
I'd like to make a post, I really would. But as per usual, my mind goes through this flat line sorta thing and I stare at the screen o.o;
*points at the icon*
I believe in Harvey Dent :), and you should too. Actually, The Incredible Hulk is supposed to be out this weekend, I'll have to catch that in theatres, it just looks like too much awesome to miss. Still looking forward to The Dark Knight though, obviously :)
*random*
It's raining, it's one thirty, and I know I'm supposed to be doing something...I'd kinda like to call Galadon, see what he's doing, and see if he'd like to go up to Fry's with me. I may or may not go to Frys, I really don't NEED to. It'd cost extra gas, all I really want to buy is a thumb drive for the kitty, and gas is kinda higher than it probably reasonably should be.
*gas*
Speaking of gas prices, why does our country keep shutting down refineries? I mean...if there's less being produced, not only are we going to run short on supplies, but they're going to be able to get away with charging more for what's left. Supply drops, demand increaces, and prices continue to go up..
*FedEx*
I read (scanned, sadly) that FedEx was being sued by some major air line. I didn't exactly catch what it was about, and it was yesterday's Indianapolis Star. Did anyone else see anything about that? Not like I get the time to rummage through CNN some days. In other news, SmartPost may be getting the Amazon.com account. We're already adding aditional belt lines, and around 120 palatized locations, though those are supposedly being split from our shipping lines and being converted into postal lines or something like that to cut down on shipping times and postage. So things will be busy, but nothing much will really be changing, just yet.
*local cookout*
It's raining a little(or maybe a lot?) today, and some tomorrow morning, but I've got lots of food and stuff for it, and hopefully everyone else brings the stuff they're supposed to bring (it'd be nice if they posted what they're bringing like I did x.o; ). If you're within a reasonable drive of Greenwood IN, feel free to drop by the Whoozfur list in Yahoo or message one of us for directions and stuff. Don't message me though, I'll hastily type "Google Craig Park in Greenwood" x.x; I do that sometimes.
*beeeeeeeeeep*
See? flat line x.o; Time management = fail. Room's still a mess, car still needs looked at, stuff still needs done around here, I still need to take the time to look for a full time job instead of these two part time things, and I'm sure there are other things I'm supposed to be doing besides wondering how to fill the blank time in my day.
*Stupid traffic tickets*
"I fought the law and the law won" Anyone else remember that song? :P. Well, apparently making a U turn at an intersection with a No Left Turn sign is still considered illegal. WTF?!? There's a huge difference between a U turn, and a Left turn. I thought it was pretty open and shut, apparently the State of Indiana doesn't agree. The ticketing officer showed up to my case, the next guy was lucky and his didn't show up. Think it would have been cheaper to just pay the fine and not look like a dunce. Lessons learned for next time I guess.
*MMO's and other massively fun time and money wasters*
Yeah, here I am with a list of things offline I need to be doing, and I would rather occupy my mind than be productive :p. Yay for the modern era I guess. Re-found PoxNora, which was this amazing little collectable miniatures online game, kinda like a turn based strategy game. A Lot has changed since last July (apparently the last game I played XD), so it'll take some reading to re-figure out the game. Otherwise, I miss the chat group from FFXI, and Everyone keeps telling me they play WoW on such and such server :p. I'm glad there are free servers out there at least, but it's not the same.
*IM's and e-mails* I find my time online is often less productive. It's not that people are too busy or stuff, it's that I never have anything to say/talk about, and I think people get tired of talking to me after a while :P. Or the ones I'd like to talk to aren't online much, so it's hard to get ahold of some people. That and I bottle up a lot anyhow :p.
*speaking of bottling up*
Sadly, the artist I wanted to commission is very busy, so I'll have to think of someone else to pass my badge/icon idea off to. I still have to chat with one artist about an old commission, and one from Morphicon I haven't heard from since then...but at least they'll be at AC. Besides that, I have another commission idea or two I wouldn't mind seeing before I got to Anthrocon, though I doubt I'll find the kind of motivation to talk to people about it XD.
*The rout job*
It's no longer a rout job for me. My current boss, the rout manager, has finally decided he doesn't really need an assistant. I figured that would come about sooner or later since he has his drivers liscence and no longer needs me to drive him around. He's doing pretty well without me, so they're dumping me back into babysitting duty for the local mall arcade :(. I have the understanding I'm still keeping my previous pay rate, but I don't know what that does about my hours or days available. I guess I'll have to wait and see then.
I guess I've yammered on enough for now. I still owe e-mail replys to friends, and am sorry I'm not more talkative otherwise. Just something about me I'll have to get over I guess. have a good one and a safe weekend :).
