May - Sept. 2010
Yeesh, no update since April? Well... there's no sense in crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake and the science gets done and you make a neat gun for the people who are still alive.
May... I know Heather and I went to Wondercon with M and her friend but I don't remember a whole lot about it other than it was packed wall to wall with people. Late May we went to Fanimecon with R and A. That was a fun time. We all got some stuff and ended up buying ears and tails. Lawl we're officially furries now, I should post photos. Heather and I got matching shirts too. Mine said "Glomp Me" and hers said "Glomp Me And Die" (glomp = surprise hug!). I ended up glomped 5 times and she 2 or 3. Thank you to the ones that asked first! The random ones were like oh my god what the fu... oh right the shirt. Thank you to guys in general for ignoring the shirt (or being illiterate)! Anyway, it was a good time. We got Claymore and Death Note and now I know why DN was so hyped. I haven't had a psychological thriller like that for a while.
June - August all kind of runs together in my mind. Highlights are pretty we went to A and J's wedding. It was a costume wedding so we wore what we did at Fanime. Lots of people asked if we were Ewoks (main theme was Star Wars but fun encouraged over theme), it was funny. Good times. We picked up the catering food for them so our car smelled of 30 some pizzas for two days. Surprised we got rid of it so fast. In July I had a birthday. August my mom had a birthday. And my brother started and finished partying his way through Greece, Italy and the rest of Europe.
It's really funny when I think about things. Life is good and terrible at the same time.
The good: I can say we have had fairly full weekends of going out to breakfast and lunch with friends. We got a fish tank and it has grown into a very cool focus for the room. We got up the cash to replace my broken computer and upgraded Heathers so we match. I've got a High School Reunion to go to next month. And we're planning a Halloween Party.
Mostly I've been playing Team Fortress 2 quite a bit. I've gotten really good at that game as a pyro. I'm a fairly good player in general. I'm a great medic and engineer well and I'm a decent sniper, heavy, soldier and demoman. Scout isn't my style and spy is hit and miss for me. Looks like I'm going to be dragged back into MMOs though, likely WoW. Bleh. Just don't consider those games entertaining anymore. I've been doodling (drawing) and writing for my own interest when my mood comes around. If it weren't for work I'd be in a good place mentally.
Oh right I beat the original Metroid game recently. Got the second best ending c_c
The bad: Work has been awful, so awful we're feeling depressed. Going to see friends can become a chore because we just want to rest. It's great being with them but everything leading is stress and then we never got the time to relax we wanted. Administration at work is so distant it's not even funny. Have heard things like "well if people want to quit we can't stop them" and "I know you [guys] are doing your best but you have to do better." People are dropping like flies to illness and not getting better. Those of us that are healthy are stuck with the slack. Dreading the week days is a normal thing now. Falling into the fast food trap is easy because we get it on the drive home and just shut down when we arrive. Then the first question after getting into the car becomes "burgers or tacos" and just sucks after a week. And the constant nightmares are getting tiresome.
So, I guess I can say life is currently a cycle of happiness and depression. Heather and I get each other through it as best we can. Anyway, this cake is great. It's so delicious and moist. Look at me still talking when there's Science to do. When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you. I've experiments to run. There is research to be done. On the people who are still alive. And believe me I am still alive. I'm doing Science and I'm still alive. I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive. While you're dying I'll be still alive. And when you're dead I will be still alive. Still alive. Still alive.
Yeah, somehow I Portal -ed from May to September.
