Meh.
Okay, so... I thought I was gonna be able to be online like all day today, but I ended up havin' to go to work... Please note that I said "go to work", and not just "work". I've never worked a day in my life, and I don't intend on changing that. Anyway... Generally, work's ten hours a day from Monday to Thursday, so today was overtime, which meant that there were only like... eight or nine of us there, instead of the usually fifty-ish. So... it was a lot quieter than usual. Also... we finished the monotonous task that several of us had been doing for the last three weeks yesterday, so today I actually did something different. Made a couple of ladders... 'kay, well, Ortiz welded the things together, but I cut and ground the parts and stuff. It's a lot more satisfying when at the end of the day, you can actually see what you've done. Anyway... ten hours of overtime today, and it was easily the best day of work I've had so far. Second best would be yesterday, when we finished that blasted fiber... Of course, we'll probably have plenty more to do Monday.
So anyway... To you people who actually read this, I've been missin'... most of you. We're supposed to be moving into the house sometime around Easter, methinks. We'll likely get Internet access there... And if we don't... we will anyway. Psh. Livin' down here while most of my stuff is up north is teh suck. Actually, all I really miss is my desk... I hafta lie on the bed to use my laptop, and... I'm rather skinny, so... whatever part of me my weight's on tends to go to sleep. Not enough padding around the veins, methinks. Also, I don't have a place to write... and though I could just type stuff, I tend to think a lot better on paper. I've actually written down programming code stuff on paper, then typed it up afterward. Dunno why I'm that way, but I am.
Hmm... Methinks the reason that I'm even typing this is that I'm online, but there's nobody else on to talk to. If I actually post this, you can assume that nobody came on before I was done, 'cause if someone does, I'm just likely to trash it. Hmm... This post actually looks fairly... normal. None of my usual hatred and such. Probably just too lonely to hate the world... Blast it.
What else to type while I'm bored... I was seriously considering going back to a bulletin board roleplaying game (BBRPG) I used to play at... based on Kingdom Hearts. You know. That game. Really, you do know. Anyway... the problem with fansites is that they generally don't last longer than a year. They're always a short-lived fad, y'know? So... The board's dead, which is actually really annoying. I actually enjoyed RPing there.
I can't enjoy MUDs any more... Elinon's to blame of course. Can't enjoy Elinon, 'cause I always just think about all of the coding that went into it. That, and I always wonder if whatever thingy would be better than the current thingy. Can't enjoy other MUDs, 'cause I'm always either thinking that they should change something, or deciding whether some feature they have would work well on Elinon, or Mog. So... MUDs are no longer amusing.
I could probably still get back into BBRPGs once I get regular 'Net access, but... I always ended up in a thread with some moron. Although come to think of it, when I actually enjoyed MUDs, I always ended up RPing with a moron. I must attract them or something. That, and BBRPGs are annoyingly slow, 'cause you gotta wait for the other person to come reply to your post. And sometimes it's hard to keep up with all of the threads you're in if you join too many. Or you're in so many that you rush your writing, and aren't really satisfied with it... Anyway...
Dang. I think this is like the first time in my life that I've ever been in a talkative mood. And since I don't have anyone to talk to, I'm naturally just... typing endless ramblings. Really. The ramblings are endless. In my mind, anyway. Speaking of which, did you know that intense concentration and deep thought can burn just as many calories as a regular workout? So, if you wanna lose weight... try thinking a little more. The people around you will probably appreciate it. And then you can become a walking skeleton like me!
We don't have the 'Net at the apartment, so... I've been doin' a lot of sleepin' lately. Nothing else to do, really. I downloaded a bunch of old-school games to my laptop. Mario, Zelda, and such. I might bring my TV down some time, and buy a working PS2... The other two might get jealous, but... they should work, I say. And then I could play all of those games again...
Speaking of which... Todd still has a bunch of my games. Heh. That reminds me, I took my brother over to Todd's house once to pick up his truck or something, and nobody was home, but the door was unlocked... and maybe open. I don't remember. Anyway, I suggested we rob the place, but my brother pointed out that everything worth stealing in there was mine anyway. Which is probably pretty close to the truth... Just grab my games, and his PS2, and the like two games that he actually owns, and there's nothing else in there worth taking. Anyway... I need to get those back.
Eh... Back to the work subject. I think the reason I was forced to get a job was to convince me that work is a terrible thing, and that college is uber-important. I kinda like it, though... If we had the 'Net so I could still talk to you online people when I got home, there'd be nothing wrong with it. Well... I still wouldn't be able to talk to that one person who's six timezones away, 'cept on days that I didn't work... I miss my Englishwoman.
Yesterday, I thought I wasn't gonna hafta work today. Steve came by and said that either I, Steffan, or Chris Ricky could work today, and he was gonna have us draw for it. I, being the kind, considerate person that I am, decided to just let one of the other two work the overtime. So... I was thinkin' that I wasn't workin' today, then Bubba came by later and told me to show up. So... instead of being online all day, I made two ladders.
Hmm... I just found a small piece of metal in my skin. *removes*
Still nobody to talk to, so.. more rambling. I guess I could just go home and go to sleep. I've got some breakfast thing at the church tomorrow, then a work day. Hooray! Stuff to do at the church! I'm so (not) excited!
Eh... I needa make a thingy on my laptop to keep track of how much money I have... Cash, check, savings, and credit card... Yeah. I should do that. From what I hear, not realizing you don't have any more money 'til it's too late is a bad thing, so... I'll just hafta... not do that.
I went and bought food and stuff for the apartment a little while ago... since there's never any food there. Also got a couple of magazines... which should give me something to do for an hour-ish. Computer Shopper and Wired. The first one's to, y'know... help me get back up to speed on how much stuff costs these days. The second one's... to give me something to do when I'm bored. Which is pretty much all the time lately.
Dang... This post got long! See what happens when I don't talk to anybody for a month? Well... It probably actually has more to do with that fact that I'm actually doin' stuff now, instead of just sittin' around all day. Yeah... Work... Moving... Lack of 'Net... Apparently these things have combined to turn me into a gibbering idiot. Instead of a laconic idiot.
I need a description to Realms of Fantasy (rofmagazine.com). That'd give me somethin' to do with all of my free time... Hmm... Yeah, I might get that. It's only like $15 a year, too... That sounded almost like an ad, didn't it? Oh well.
I guess I should really be getting some stuff done on Mog, but I haven't exactly been motivated recently. 'specially since every time I think about working on it, I decide I'd rather not have my arm fall asleep every five minutes (see above).
I think I might go to McDonald's or somethin'... I've actually been vainly attempting to gain weight for like the last three months, but the fact that there's never food wherever I'm living at has always screwed that up. But now I have money! And McDonald's is the perfect place to get fat, right? Yeah... I'll go do that.
Talk to you people later, maybe.
