Rant unfuckingbelievable The fat troll couple I live with has decided to bail, ONE WEEK BEFORE RENT IS DUE! Just as an added kick to the balls, they're not even bothering to find us a new room mate, leaving the remaining three of us high and dry. Rave Cue immature passive aggressive shit for me to do. I'll start with rubbing my bare ass all over their pillow sheets and computer mouse. A nice case of pinkeye to send them on their way. Any suggestions of other nefarious shit to do would be much appreciated. In fact fuck it, mods if you see this can it becoe a thread? Rave At least I'm not fat, disgusting, and now without friends.
RANT RANT RANT: we're fucked. The house we had an agreement to buy (and have been living in for almost 2 years now).. was a damn fraud.. the technical owners took our money and blew it, and now the house is up for auction on Wednesday. Our 10k down payment gone and possibly not able to get it back.. and we might have our asses kicked to the curb with barely any notice. The only possible good thing is having the city come to the door and paying us a substantial amount of cash for our house keys and all the money we put into this house to make it livable in order for us not to destroy it(and we have every right to).. and MAYBE the possibility that the contract we signed was completely shady, which means we can report the lawyer who drew it up to the Bar association and get our down payment back, but that's all a BIG if. I don't want to uproot my family and move. This fucking blows.
Rave: Hit the sweet spot of drunk last night and held it for like four hours. All of the benefits of liquid courage without any of the downsides. Rave: Party had an In n' Out truck. Open bars are nice, but open burger joint? Hells yes.
Fuck it, I've been lurking for a long time. I figure it's about time I post something. Rave: Recently got a job a after about a year of sending resumes out to almost every posting I could find. Rave:Hammered Rant:Was drinking alone tonight because I know zero people in this lame city. (I'm not an alcholic, I don't goto meetings). Rant:Took me forever to write this.
Rant: First two games of softball today. We ended up losing both big time, slaughter rule baby. Being in Right Field I only beefed one play that resulted in a run. Rave: Didn't strike out. Two flyouts, one single, and one walk. The third base coach waived me home during the inning I was walked but I was beat to home plat, which was like a second home plate away from the batting home plate. Shits weird.
Rave- After all the reviews of this show, ala "The best television show of all time", I rented the first few disks of The Wire. I'm only a handful of episodes in, but excellent so far. I don't know if I'd label it "best of all time", but it's held my attention thus far, and plan to see how it evolves over the next few seasons.
Rave:Wonderful day at the water park yesterday with the Mrs, midgets, and friends. Put vodka in water bottles to avoid the booze Nazis. Rant: Sore as fuck this morning from trying to keep up with my teens, fuck I'm getting old.
RAVE: Spent Saturday on a boat, floating in the waters off the coast of Georgia. RAVE: Did NOT spend all my money. RAVE: Sunburn does not hurt, and the hangovers never caught up with me. RAVE: Met some really awesome people. Made friends with a girl that is literally me if I was a chick. The potential for mischief is exponential.
Doc review job ended abruptly on Friday. No warning, no nothing. Just a phone call at quarter of six.
Rant: After a weekend away to drink and play golf I get a call saying that I left my clubs in my friend's trunk. Rant: I'm in NY, he just got back home to MD.
RAVE: A whole bunch of people have been visiting for a friend's 40th. Yesterday we all went out to Dreamworld (think Six Flags), and I took my three year old along. Late in the afternoon, I hadn't had a chance to really do anything as I'd been looking after him all day, so one of the mothers agreed to take him to the kiddie ball pit while I could go on a ride or two. While I was away, she asked one of the other little kids to keep an eye on him for a moment and turned her back (dumb move). She turned back and he was gone. He'd gone outside the ball pit gate, past the attendant, and was taking a piss on the garden.... in front of several hundred people. She ran out to find him, and had to wait for him to finish as several hundred people stopped looking at him and started giving the evil eye to her. RANT: I wasn't there to witness it.
Really missing my buddy who shot himself about 5 months ago, fuck, there is only so much music can do but it will never bring him back.
Rave: Just got back from an amazing weekend at my parents cabin. Went there with 3 buddies and the girlfriend. It was probably the perfect amount of people for a nice relaxing weekend of drinking and hanging out at the beach. I stayed sober during the day so I could drive us around between the beaches and our cabin, only drinking at night and still had a blast. Highlight of the weekend was probably hanging out under some small cliffs here (2 friends of mine, not me): And jumping into the water from above them (this one's me):
Rant: I'm sitting here posting this from my kitchen when I should be at the office. Why? Because the aluminum bracket where the motor in my car attaches to the engine mount cracked... Completely in half. It was fine all day on Friday, and then I went to go out to dinner and started the car, it was making a godawful noise. Worse yet, no local dealers have the part and the only facility that does, does not ship on the weekends. This is the third time in the past six weeks where the car has needed repairs. Rave: Sitting here posting from my kitchen, while drinking coffee and watching the news.
Rave: I applied for a new job. I'm not at a point where I want to publicly release the specifics, but it would be a step up, and in my mind it's the realistic 'next step' in my broadcasting career. Rant: I'm feeling quite a bit of anxiety regarding my decision to apply. My reasons are many: - If I did get the job, my current employer would be hooped for the interim. - I have great respect and admiration for my current employer, and I know full-well that if I did leave, there would be a lot of pissed off co-workers (many of which are sales people who rely on my work to make their money). - I had to e-mail my GM to tell him the news. I couldn't tell him face-to-face because he's on vacation. During our review, I (foolishly) promised him that I'd keep in informed if/when I ever applied for a new job. I'm a man of my word, but I'm extremely worried that our friendship and professional relationship will change after this news. - The thought of picking up and moving away from my home for the past three years makes me queasy. I've got such a good thing going here, and I'm not entirely convinced it's the right time. All of that being said - I have to sack-up and stay positive. I know that if I got this job that I would KILL IT! Rant: The rumor-mill is already churning, and APPARENTLY there are two favorites for the position. I am not one of them. Rant: I worry too much. Be it financially, socially or professionally. On the surface I'm pretty calm, cool and laid-back. But sometimes I get in these funks where all I do is worry about shit that I can't even control. When I analyze my life and my personality more closely, I truly see that all of this worrying is stupid. I've got a great job, an awesome girl, some wicked friends, and while I'm hardly rich - I make enough money to enjoy my weekends. My Epiphany: So what if there are two others who are alleged favorites. All I can do is take advantage of opportunities if/when they are presented to me. I can't worry about them, all I can do is worry about me. And on this end, I know that I sent them my very best work. If it's good enough, great, but if not, oh well. It's not like I'm miserable here. Have a great week, and trust yourself and your abilities!
RANT: Sunnova B. I was supposed to fly my checkride flight this morning allowing me to fly the plane by myself tomorrow...but! Spoiler Operations decided that they should send 100 of the 110 working planes to other airports over the weekend for weekend flights even though it was supposed to be shitty weather. They get sent out Friday nights and are supposed to come back Sunday evenings...or so they say. Mother Nature decided to throw one last storm at us and none of the planes got back. They are trickling in one by one now which meant my scheduled flight time earlier got cancelled, and I'll hopefully get to checkride and solo tomorrow. We'll see though, Ops has a habit of screwing up easy stuff. Rant: Forgot a couple exact altitudes for certain procedures during my brief (I was off by 200ft), which means I owe beer to my instructor. Rant: A couple meaning 3, and beer meaning a 6 pack per mistake. Even though I'm not flying the flight. I need to stop making these small, stupid mistakes and fix myself. Rave?: Good weather for a while, which means a lot of flying. But this equates to very, very few day's off.
Re: Rant & Rave Thread Rant: siting at the doctors office waiting for the doctor. Throat hurts like a bitch today, I'm really hoping its not strep. Rave: didn't go to work today because of the above. Rant: I'm fucking thirsty but it hurts too bad to swallow water. And no dick-sucking-related jokes, you assholes.
RAVE: Up $4k for the week sportsbetting. RAVE: 2 legs left on my multi-bet, the worst being $1.43, to turn $500 --> $10k. Can lay it off now and lock in at some big dollars, or freeroll a 10k shot. RAVE: Time to book that trip to Europe and buy myself a few treats. (New tv, laptop etc..) RAVE: Just bought myself another car, a Jeep Cheroke Ltd, unbelievably low KMs and immaculate leather/ all electric interior. Haggled 30% off the price, 1 owner, full service history. Paid cash from previous sports winnings. RAVE: Gonna take some days off next week and go to the horse races and get drunk and throw money at horses. (which I have absolutely no clue about) RAVE: New girl is smoking hot and moving away to another state for Uni next year, thus not looking for a relationship. She however has a voracious sexual appetite and without the prospect of a relationship, is not afraid to use it. RANT: My AsAc was cracked by 9d10x on a Ah7d8d 5d 6d board, for a $900 pot online.
Rave: One week to go before playoffs, and I still have a two-point lead in my Fantasy Baseball League. Rave: I am NOT the Commissioner of that league, which is nice, because Rant: I AM the Commissioner of my Football League. What the fucking fuck? You know, a MONTH ago, when I sent out an email to see if everybody was in this year, and you know how you responded with a yes? Well, fuck you backing out this morning. The Draft is in less than a week, you stupid fuck. And, a big fuck you to those that can't get your money in on time. Seriously, you can't come up with $25 with a month's notice?
