Music right now: Trinidad - Eddie Money

Scored some free tickets to Cedar Point through my mom's job, so we'll being going down there Saturday in the 'Rolla. Ken unfortunately can't join us as of this typing. According to Wiki, the new Maverick coaster is open. As I said here before, it's a bummer White Water Landing had to go for it.

I got a job! For about a week. I was training in making pizzas (see: learning where they keep ingredients) at a local joint. Then somebody who flaked out on them because he had "band practice a lot" decided he wanted money again, so I got the boot with 10-and-a-half hours under my belt at a net pay of $63. A Speedway station 10 miles from here was looking for somebody, but now, a few days removed from doing the app, no call. I'm up to about 7-8 places with apps, and probably the same amount in places that told me they weren't hiring. "Yay."

On the lighter side, I got to throw our podcast in another directory as well as a submission to the "Review of Podcasts Podcast." Eek. Considering his reviews have been of those high concept podcasts with one direction, this should be interesting at least.

Wanna know how bored I was? I beat the "Fun House" game for the NES. I had to use an emulator and save states after each level, but I did it - just had to see the ending. I put grabs of it in my "random game shows" album in the ScrapBook.

So I guess Cedar Point coming up and more sitting around. Still haven't painted that house. With money, I'd do something, or buy something, but all I can do now is just kind of...wait. I'm practically out of places a reasonable distance from here that I want to work at. And that's not even a picky definition - just no restaurants. And I even took a job at one for a week there! Argh.
