    Happy birthday Tina. Hope you're drunk somewhere right now.

    Yeah, so I walked by this about 5 minutes before it happened yesterday.

    I'm so pissed off, I don't even have the words. People are so stupid sometimes.

    In case anyone was actually wondering.....
    I didn't win the cruise last night. But that's ok, cause I don't really have the vacation to go anyways because I'm using up 10 days in December to go to a better cruise. So ppppffftttttt to you 96 Rock and Icehouse.

    I'd like to thank the academy
    So I went to this bar the other night, and some chick wearing an Icehouse shirt came up to my roommate and I and asked if we wanted to sign up to win a trip, or a boat, or something. We weren't really paying attention. But in the interest of getting her to leave we filled out the form she had.

    Then the other day I got a call from some guy from the local radio station saying my name had been picked and I was a finalist for some trip, or some boat or something. Again, not really paying that much attention. I got home and told my roommate about it, and he said he had gotten a call from him too. I figured they must have called everyone that was at the bar that night, but just because I'm curious about stuff like that I called the guy back. Turns out that they only picked two finalists from that night, and only 10 total. So tonight I have a 1 in 10 (if all the other finalists show up) chance of winning a fabulous trip for two to....somewhere. There's a website. Seems like it might be fun. Doubt I'll win, but at least it's an honor to be nominated. Or something.

    I'm drunk and thought about leaving a bunch of drunken comments in everybody's journal but instead I'll do the catch-all-drunken posting and hope that everyone leaves comments.

    Wee drunk!

    Yay!

    I miss people
    Where did everybody go? I know I changed to a weird schedule but I'm not completely offline during normal waking hours.

    Katiepie: You popped back up, but where are you? I miss you sugar, come talk to me sometime.

    Heather: Where are you? What's going on? Are you still moving? I need updates.

    Kat: How come you're never on AIM anymore? or are you just on different hours now. I don't like it.

    Tina: I wish you had AIM. I haven't really "talked" to you in so very long.

    Grace, Ruby, other HT people: Message me sometime. I get bored but I'm too shy to start conversations on my own.

    So there. I'm not 10% as depressed as I was a few months ago. But every now and then I get small bouts. Help me. Please.

    So it had been a few months since I had a haircut. and about as long since I had shaved. So this morning I was looking quite shaggy and was sporting the full beard.

    I decided to change that.

    So I'm back. I didn't have internet for a while there.

    Not that anyone missed me.

    You'll have to forgive me. I'm throwing myself a pity party tonight.

    I guess I haven't updated in a while. I was waiting to update until I could give an update that went something like:

    "My life is perfect, I'm making tons of money, I love my job, I love my new apartment, and oh yeah, I'm in love with the most beautiful girl ever"

    So yeah, scratch that.

    Life still isn't perfect. I'm making decent money. I kinda like my job (which is still 1000 times better than walmart and if I ever forget that kick my ass and tattoo it to my forehead), I think I'm gonna like my new apartment, we move in next weekend, and as for the in love part....

    Not happening.

    I did meet a girl on eharmony, and I did really start to fall for her. Pretty hard actually. we went out a few times and things looked pretty good, but then I realized that I was falling in love with

    A) the idea of being in love.

    and

    b) the projected image of my ex onto this new girl. Yes there were similarities between the two, but I realized that the reason it was so easy for me to easily fall for this new girl was because I was pretending that she was someone else.

    So I backed off from pursuing her, and for the last week, I've had minimal contact with her. Which is surprising because I thought that she was falling for me too and now that she's not pursuing me too hard I'm forced to wonder if she doesn't like me, or if she's just shy, or she's hurt/confused because I went from sixty to zero in 3.2 seconds.

    But yeah. That's my life. Still not perfect, but a hell of a lot better than it has been for the past 2 years. I'm no longer in perma-depression mode.

    :::


    Oh, weird thing of note:

    Last Sunday my Dad's Mom's sister died.

    Yesterday my Mom's Dad's sister died.

    I'm praying to God that these things aren't happening in threes.

    Life is good.

    This weekend I got to see my family, my girl, (who turns 3 in a few weeks) and some friends I hadn't seen in a while. Then when I was coming home I remembered that some friends of mine had moved really close to where my parents live, so I gave them a call and hung out with them for a few hours.

    Then I came home and had a new eharmony match that I ended up talking to for a few hours before I went to bed. But you know how the eharmony thing goes so I'm not getting my hopes up too much. (when does my membership on that site end again?)

    I really still like this new job, but for the time being I'm bored out of my skull. I'm "training" on 1st shift, but really training = waiting for something to happen. and not a whole lot is happening so far. No one's telling me what to do, but there are several people that can see my monitor from their desks, so I can't even surf too many web sites without feeling like I'm gonna get in trouble. When I start my normal shift, next week, I won't have anyone around to see what I'm doing so I'll be free to surf where I want to surf (all of this sounds like I want to surf for porno, which really isn't the case, I just don't like people seeing what I'm doing all the time) I just wanna be able to go to fark or a few message boards and be able to click links without worrying about what pictures pop up.

    But anyway, if my biggest problem is that I have to wait a week to be able to surf the internet sites that I want, then I think that's a sign that my life is headed in the right direction.

    So today was a slow day at work.

    I pretty much so did nothing.

    I'm still in training, but since nothing went wrong, there wasn't a lot of stuff to train on.

    But I'm loving it here. It's nice to work for a company that doesn't suck.

    I just assumed that I'd be working this weekend, but they looked at me like I was crazy when I asked what time I should get here tomorrow.

    Oh, and you know that holiday thingie that the rest of the country has on Monday. Yeah, I get that off too.

    And there's free sodas and snapple in the fridge. FREE! that's like....as many as you want. For free. I still haven't gotten any because soda is bad. but yeah.

    I'm pretty sure I'm gonna love this job. Especially when I get switched to my normal shift.

    Yay!

    I'm posting this from my new job. Yay!

    I've got tons to learn. I'll be swamped for a week or so. But after that, it looks like this job is gonna be sweet.

    Things I'll have to start paying for now that I can:

    Rent (yeah it's been about 6 months. So back rent, + current rent. That's gonna suck for a while)

    More than the minimum balance on my credit cards. It's funny how my balance is actually growing every month even through I haven't (been able to) charge anything to them in a few months.

    Student loans. Unemployment deferment only works if you're unemployed.

    Mom's Cable bill. Don't ask. But she's asking for $50 a month because dad says he doesn't want to waste the money. Plus I kinda owe her a few thousand dollars.

    Extra rent. Now that I'll be living in a 2 bedroom place instead of 3.

    Yeah. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to do it all.

    Still worried a bit.

    Loooooooooong Story Short
    Guy Roommate breaks up with girlfriend.

    Girl Roommate is whore and when she can't pull ass from a club, comes home and fucks guy roommate.

    This goes on for a few weeks.

    Guy roommate is still leading ex-girlfriend on.

    Ex girlfriend comes over to see guy roommate when he's not home. Ends up talking to me for a few hours, during the course of said conversation it might have been mentioned that guy roommate and girl roommate are fucking.

    Guy roommate comes home. me leave. Huge fight ensues.

    Guy roommate is pissed. Ex girlfriend is pissed. Everyone is pissed.

    In general life sucks at this moment.

    And I'm STILL not getting laid.

    Sigh.

    Update
    I got a real job today.

    It pays about twice what I'm making now.

    And I get to work with computers.

    More money = Not depressed anymore + Working with computers = many more updates. Possibly ones that aren't depressing as hell

    FYI.

    So close.
    OK so what do you call it when you make plans to meet someone at 1 in the morning?

    For a "Backrub"

    I'd call that a booty call.

    What do you call it when you get over there at 2 in the morning and she doesn't speak to you at all?

    I'd call it chapter 2,387 on why I'll never understand females.
