The Atrocity of War! Tomorrow, She'll Be Greeted With New FMJs!
Hoo boy, I am going to have some sort of nightmare tonight.
So, in History, we're going through WW2, and today we talked briefly about the Holocaust. I was thinking, 'huh, only 2 slides -- she's gonna talk a lot.' Yeah no. Instead, we watched a French docu, called Night and Fog made in '54. And, she sorta vaguely warned us that this is 100% real, no bullshit like Schindler's List... I'm thinking it's gonna be sorta like a overview and stuff.
Hell to the fuckin' naw.
It was probably about... 20 minutes in that it really got Grimdark and... I really can't describe it -- but let me say this; I'm glad it wasn't in color or else I'd probably would've lost it. It like watching a really bad dream you couldn't wake up from immediately, like someone grabbing your eyes and pushing them in or something and y...
hmm. Maybe because of my imagination, I was probably desensitized and it was more like a 'holy shit, can it get any worse' moment that just went on. Of course, at the same time though... it made me think about an angle I was going at for Epsilon. I guess... it was inspiration? I know it's a little twisted of me but, we'll worry about that later down the road.
I was already in a bad mood; Mother Nature struck me down with the curse as soon as I walked out of the door to leave for school. Better then than in transit, and it wasn't like I wasn't prepared for anything. But the cramps, coupled with the film and I was all bothered really ruined the day for me. After it ended and we were allowed to go... I stated that it was just fucking depressing. It really, truly does. And, I remembered that when we were in Germany (back when it was East/West), Poppy patrolled near one of the former camps, and he said that it just felt like Death.
Anyway, to brighter news: I FINALLY got my FMJ situation straightened out. Here's what the issue was: they didn't have my color in -- out of stock. Of course, I had to go to the Live Support chat to figure that out (and the button was a little elusive itself) and after I told my situation, the person fixed it for me, and asked me what color I wanted. I got blue, of course. Chrome was my second choice...but that was quickly sold out a little afterwards. So, I got the Recieved email again, and this was around the 27th -- a week ago. A few hours ago, I got the email that it got shipped and the track#. I was slightly puzzled -- it listed it was still in Portland, a good... well it's far off from here. I F5'd that bitch every 20 minutes... and around 8:30 today, it's in Elliswood, GA, just outside Atlanta.
THAT'S NOT EVEN 2 HOURS AWAY FROM ME.
So, that moved up the expected delivery date to tomorrow, a full day ahead of schedule. Finally, I can really appreciate music again. Not that the iCon/Recruit didn't do well, its just that I had to be careful about my volume. But now... I've got my sanctuary back.
I'm getting my hair done tomorrow, so I'll swing by the house, and pick them up -- freshen up if I have enough time.
Yessss.
