Its been 11 days since my last post... serious negligence goin' ooon. :) Not that anyone reads this anyway. hehe
So Jaimie's grandma died... gayness. Funeral was on Monday... it was weird. Haven't been to a funeral since my bros. I got a little tripped out seeing the body.... just flashbacks and ingrams and whatnot. No biggie. Got over it real quick.
I'm trying really hard not to like... get too attatched to Jaimie. Its very, very difficult to do. Luckily she's not perfect, I wouldn't want to stick her on that pedestal, but she drinks and occasionally smokes weed. For anyone that knows me.. knows that this is very conflicting. Part of me would like to just show her the sober life, and the other 70% of me thinks that that would be to try to change her. And I dont. I like her.. I just don't want to worry about her when i'm gone. I could see her being very self destructive... and I just wish she didnt :'( But I haven't said anything about it. But when she says that she didnt smoke when she had the chance (Because really, everyone can do it everyday and never pay for it) I just say "good for you sweetie :)" And try not to shit my pants with happiness.
I was very, very frustrated with my laptop search. Its been months... I have won a few, been scammed, had one returned... and almost completely fucked by two that I had fallback offers on... but this one should be genuine because it wasnt as risky as the others. Its not that nice, of course... I am no Sam, and have a very, very limited budget, but as unimpressive as it will sound, i'll still post the specs. If you dont care about computerism, just skip down to the asterisks :)
Sony Vaio <--- that i'm actually way psyched, because its a wayyy decent brand.
P-4M 1.7G
30Gig
512Ram
CD-RW/DVD
15" LCD
It only has 16 megs of vid.mem... but i'm going to settle with that because it still has a way decent max res. (1400x1080) and its not shared, so the 512 will go to more important shit.
The real clencher when I saw it was it came with 3 batteries.. over 8 hours of hard laptopping :D So that should take care of the flights between SLC and Hawaii.
And it comes with... thats right... the add-on 10-key LOL I was like... Okay, great *thumbs up* Now I can number crunch my way to my BA hahaha But Vaio's are great... and call me a poor kid... but having a Vaio is 'cool'. Sony is wonderful. :D
Ohh, $599. btw. Just in my price range. :D I'm way glad its not a shitty Celeron or AMD {even though I wouldn't settled with an XP-M... but I prefer the good ol' mobile P4 :) }
****
So the laptop search is over... but my phone is about to take a shit on me. The menu button doesn't really work and it makes me homicidal... won't be long before I accidently crack the lcd in a fury of biting and hitting lol And yes... there are bite marks of times I couldn't get service in the Dairy.
Hmm... saw Butterfly Effect, really enjoyed it. Made me very introspective and probably should've watched it alone... but way good. VERY intense, I recommend :)
This is my last week at Blimpie corporate... I hate it more and more daily. I get closer and closer to flipping out. I was laying out bread... no biggie... but then when i tried to put one tray on the rack it got all fubar'd and I proceeded to tell my coworker/supervisor how "this whole thing is fucking bullshit" and walked off. I don't know why it pissed me off so bad. I've been so god damn irritable lately. Jaimie thought I was pissed at her this morning, I just woke up in a shitty mood and Noah was being crazy and kind of pissing me off. I like that girl a ton... i'm gonna miss her. :'(
THOMAS, we have the same last day of work. How about that :)
I've been thinking of possible jobs in Hilo... I dont know... I still want to pursue a barista position... but i'm not sure how many coffee shops there are, and if they'll hire a howley... that'll be such a culture shock being the descriminant. I'm so used to having my accepted racial purity lol. But anyhoo... I'd assume there'd be some seeing as Kona coffee is world-renowned... and thats just a 2 hour drive from Hilo. I'm so excited to have some hard core fresh coffee. I hear after your first cup youre nearly post-coital. :)
Anyhoo.. I'll quit rambling to myself. Its 3:30. I've got a ton of shit to do tomorrow.
Much love to all of you... and I hope some of ya will call me with my two weeks of freedom before I go to hangout. 815-1068 unless yall forgot :)
Goodnight... though most of you chillin are probably out. :)
