Rave: Wife made supper tonight. Chilli and corn bread. Great for a shity day. Rave: Had a quickie before I headed to job #1 Rave: I'll have twice a much sleep durring this work week then I have in the last 5 months. Oh, how I LOVE sleeeeeepppp.
SUPER RAVE: Today's Woot.com deal was a viewsonic g-tablet for only $285.00 shipped. I have been looking for a cheap android tablet that doesn't suck for YEARS. I would have sucked it up and gotten an ipad if only they had added USB ports. It needs some "jailbreaking" to unleash its power, but once that's done the tablet should be beast. 15 minutes to go if anyone else wants to jump in on it.
RANT: Pulling my second all-nighter of the week to study for a huge midterm tomorrow morning at 9:30 AM. Rather than studying, however, I am reading TiB. Good choice. RAVE: Two months (minus 3 days) until graduation. Thank God.
Rave- Finally accepted a job! I am no longer a bum Rant- The money is so-so and I am not sure I want the job but its better then nothing I guess. Rave- Interview with the job I actually want next week, crossing fingers
RAVE: I've spent the past three days picking up extra hours at work and doing yard work for more cash. It's not a ton of money, but it feels great to be active and working rather than sitting around bored. The flip side is, I'm almost starting to feel like a workaholic. RANT: Spoke to the property manager about the bug infestation I've been having. His response? "Oh, we weren't planning to do this section again, but next month we will have the pest guy spray your unit when he does the other parts of the complex." Don't get me wrong, this guy has been nothing less than incredibly helpful and easy to get along with, but this is just bullshit. I'm paying a lower monthly rent because I'm in a smaller unit. Nowhere in my contract does it state that part of the cost reduction is because they skimp on pest control. My larger 1 bedroom? Once a month. My two-bedroom? Once a month. I've been in this unit for three months and they haven't sprayed shit. Damn right you'd better spray next month, because I have a new type of insect popping up in my bathroom or kitchen every week, and I'm getting goddamned tired of killing them and trying to repress my arachnaphobia. Of course, the pest spray might not even work, seeing as how the last spider I killed was still running around after taking almost half a can of utility cleaner to the face. Ballsy little shit, I'll give his ugly black ass that much. (Seriously, it was one of the fat black ones that just seem to scream, "Hi, I'm clearly visible because I want you to know, I'm sitting in your toilet just to fuck up your day.")
Rave: After years of research I finally bought a new car. A 2011 Mustang GT. I'm pretty stoked. Rant: Car payments. I've never had a car payment before.
Rant: Today feels like a Friday. Rave: Free lunch at work catered by the awesome deli from across the street.
Rave: Found out that I fully qualify for the Sonography program I am interested in starting this fall. I had been nervous because it appeared that even though I have a bachelors degree and a 2 year radiography certification, I may have needed more basic classes just to qualify for admission. After talking to the program director on the phone today, he said I should be good to go. Rant: More student loans again and 16 months of school. Oh well.
Rant: Storming like crazy around here which in its self isn't so bad but........ RANT: I locked my keys in my truck. I know I can coat hanger the lock open but I have to stand in the thunder storm to do it.
Rave: Not coming to work tomorrow so I can spend all day at the FIRST Robotics competition with the team I mentor.
Rave: While cleaning my garage, I found a box containing a pound of tannerite that I forgot I still had. Rant: My printer just took a shit. That's the second one in just over a year. Now I have two dead printers sitting in the back corner of my office. Rave: I'm gonna explode me some printers this weekend.
Rave: First ever ( by me ) transmission rebuild is done and everything works great, was a bitch but I learned a lot. Pretty cool sense of accomplishment getting that done.
Rave: Woke up this morning without a cough. Ba-Boom! Rave: I am very pleased with how my fantasy baseball draft turned out. I snagged Pujols, Mauer, Cliff Lee, Nelson Cruz, Zack Greinke and my boy Travis Snider (in the later rounds of course). Add the fact that all 12 participants of the draft were on-hand to make their picks. Nothing stinks more than a fantasy draft where one or two players have their teams 'auto-picked.' Rave: House party tomorrow night. I'm gonna drink fuckin Heinekens and Jager-Bombs all night! (Hopefully you guys get the 'My New Haircut' Reference.) Rant: My March Madness Bracket is falling apart worse than a Charlie Sheen marriage. Bazinnnnga!
Rant: Woke up at 0430. Rantier: Woke up at 0130 and couldn't fall asleep until 0245. Rave: My morning sim, at 0530, got cancelled because of electronics issues...ie: we couldn't take off. Rave: Planned a pretty decent route for my Ft Lauderdale excursion tomorrow. Ravier: FT LAUDERDALE TOMORROW!!! Rave: We have 55 extra pound of weight in the Helo for luggage and booze...hopefully lots of booze.
Rave: Leasing agent from my apartment just called me; I won some raffle that gets me $250 off next month's rent! Rave: Crazy weekend up ahead. Rant: Capital structure analysis project meeting on Sunday morning. Barf.
