RAVE!!: I finally started cleaning, whilst listening to Richard Pryor, and found an eighth!! "Kong." I hid this shit from myself because it was so damn strong!(I was really baked, once) Rant: I FORGOT about it and smoked resin uneccesarily last night. Stoner.
Rant: Engineering meeting with a DOUCHBAG customer that I do not like at all. The reasons are too numerous to list but they're fairly all encompassing. Rave: Planned in advance for this meeting a brought a couple of cookies with special ingredients with me to work. Rave: I've turned something I dread into something I'm looking forward to. Yay.
Rave: 4 day week. Heading back home to Florida on Friday for my dad's surprise 60th Birthday party on Saturday. On top of that, we are getting him the shotgun he's been eying for the past few months that my mom has been denying him. That too, is a surprise. Since the party will be chock full of people I don't want to see, alcohol will be plentiful for me.
Rave: As much as I love the holiday season, I'm glad that the hustle and bustle of it is finally over. I can finally relax and get back into the usual swing of things. Hell, I've barely even had a chance to read/post around here for almost two weeks now! Rave: Decided to buy an iPad as a Christmas Gift to myself using some money I got from my Step-Dad. I had been resisting for awhile and had considered just getting a netbook or a windows tablet. I finally realized though that for what I would be using something like this for, the iPad really is the best option. It's a pretty great little device and I've really been enjoying playing with it.
rave: All packed and ready to go. Can't fucking wait to leave everything behind for the next 4 months and just concentrate on having a great time in India.. Just got to distract myself for the next 8 hours now. See you in 4 months you crazy drunken internet peoples you.
Rave: Tuition's paid, money's looking good, and I have a date with Buffalo Wild Wings in an hour. Rant: I have a date "with" BWW, not "at." Oh well, Mango Habanero is almost as good as a blowjob.
RANT: Hey hospital that I work at home for. I work at home. Why the fuck do I need to drive 45 minutes both ways to get a TB test. I WORK FROM FUCKING HOME. You get it? I never enter the hospital, hence I cannot spread TB, which I do not have in the first place. It's bad enough I have to work every fucking weekend and have the shittiest hours out of anyone in the department. Oh, wait, what's that? Now you want me to lug my PC in on my day off so that IT can install new software for a system that I don't even use? Ever heard of PC ANYWHERE? Why can't they just install remotely like they've done FOR EVERY OTHER FUCKING PROGRAM AND UPDATE IN THE LAST 4 YEARS? Stupid, stupid stupid.
Rave: Destroyed my folks at bowling yesterday. Rave: Successful in modding my Xbox 360. Rant: My annual reoccurring sickness which includes a terrible sore throat, coughing, runny nose, watery eyes and salivary glands running NONSTOP is currently doing it's thing right now. The saliva bullshit is the worst - I've gotta spit A LOT every 10 fucking seconds. Makes sleeping pretty much impossible. Please GTFO of my system. Rave: $10 lift tickets at one of our local mountains this Friday.
Rave: Jokingly posting on Facebook that my roommate was currently trying meth and his mom calling him 10 minutes later extremely upset over it.
Rant: My passive/aggressive boss decided to leave me with the dubious honor of telling my useless coworker that he can't do whatever he wants to do. This would be great except my coworker is an uber-sensitive hippie type who turnes into a butthurt bitch over every little thing. Bigger rant: I wish the hairy, fat, balding, pedobear looking motherfucker here climbing would go home. I'm pretty sure he's not allowed to be around children, and seeing his fat smooshed into and through his harness is literally causing me to gag. Biggest rant: My Guy's grandmother is dying. They're not close, so it's not a horrific loss, but it DOES suck that he's only getting to see his favorite uncle under these circumstances. The "rant" part of this is that My Guy's mother dislikes me so intensely that the Uncle doesn't get to hang with me while he's in state. It'd have been cool to get to know that part of the family. Rave? Started looking at vacations yesterday. Talked to a really good friend in Miami today. I was thinking Hawai'i, since The Guy had never been but after talking with my girlfriend in Miami, we could go, use the plane, the boat, go to the Bahamas,and hit some other spots while there. Looks like I may be Florida bound. YAY!
Rave: Happy New Year Idiots! I've been away but now I'm back. Rant: Grandfather died 2 days before Christmas. Damn attention whore. I made it to his house before they took his body away so got to say my goodbyes. He and my Grandmother were married for 64 years, I don't know how she is going to cope being alone. Rave: I got to have him as my grandfather for 33 years, he was the most excellent of men.
Rave I'm going to Hawaii for a week on Thursday. Anything I shouldn't miss while I'm there? (I'm on Oahu for reference.)
Rant: Stupid goddamn people are all around me. This morning a few guys at work were talking about the weather and how it's supposed to get really cold next week. One of them makes a comment about global warming and they start joking about 'why's it cold outside if this dagnabbed global warming thing is real?' (I may be paraphrasing.) I told them that's not how it works. So, I guess I'm a tree hugger now. Science kids, it's only for hippies. Rant: More stupid people on fb have caused me to write a nice little history lesson to enlighten them. It might be too political so I'll leave it at that. Rant: I didn't sleep worth a shit last night and clearly that has made me pissy as fuck today. Rave: I'm taking a nap today, that's for sure.
Rant: The disc we were watching on my PS3 got stuck and now I can't get it out. I should've expected this. It gets used virtually every day, and we've had it for about 3 years now. Rant: $99 to get it serviced because it is out of warranty, plus it'll be gone for at least two to three weeks. Rant: Last year, I upgraded the HDD to a 500GB hard drive. They will either be replacing the entire system or erasing the HDD. The system won't turn on to let me back up my data. I really, really need to switch the hard drive out before sending it in. Of course, the screw holding the hard drive in place is stripped. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck. Finally, who the fuck knows if I'll get the disc back (It was a disc of a Seinfeld season on DVD). Rant: I can't find a pair of pliers to save my fucking life. My wife will use them for something, then they'll up and disappear. When I inquire about where they are, she yells at me that I am the unorganized one, or says that it is my fault for not cleaning every day, blah blah blah. These are some of the few fights we have. When she KNOWS she is wrong, her defense tactic is to immediately go on the offensive and call me out on some silly meaningless shit, hoping to distract from the fact that she lost something (as it is usually her losing something that causes me frustration). If I could just get a pair of needle nose pliers or something along those lines, I know I can remove that screw. Looks like we're stopping at the hardware store on the way home today. Should be interesting, as I'll be in a full suit and tie. Why? Rant: Have to go to a wake today and a funeral tomorrow, so I was already in a pretty down and shitty mood. Minor Rave: Was able to switch my schedule around for the spring semester so I only have one evening class, plus I added a class that is a continuation of my easiest class from last semester. This teacher is incredibly boring and takes attendance, BUT she also seems to adore me (she remembered my name somehow, despite being fairly senile and not remembering anyone else's name) and is one of the easiest graders I've ever encountered. This class should be an easy A. Still, regardless of that minor rave, it is not physically possible for this day to suck more.
