Pretty well on this end. Christmas was good! You still in Rio?

Still living in Rio, but going constantly to wherever the company needs me to go. We're creating a training schedule for some employees that are envolved with technical jobs and I also need to create a communication channel with all the universities in the country. I already mapped them, now I need to VISIT them. ;_;

Heya Snow, nice to know you're still around too.

... holy -fuck- who are you working for?

NotMiki · « **Reply #1727 on:** December 26, 2010, 05:47:02 AM »

El Diablo, clearly.

Please let me win these Cirque tickets.

I love the symmetry of my vacation. Finish work and immediately fly home for the holidays. Finish holidays and immediately fly home for work. It is elegant in its stupidity.

Julia gets home after a good day of work, and her boyfriend made dinner.
+100 points.

Julia sits down in bed, turns on 360 and wonders what this "DVD" is. Boyfriend insists that I look.
Well, if it isn't the Hangover! Yeah! I sent that DVD out back to Netflix today.

No? No I didn't? Then what was in the sleeve?! YOU PUT INFINITE UNDISCOVERY IN THE NETFLIX SLEEVE?
Julia becomes enraged.
-30 Points

After a brief google to see the potential of getting said item back, Julia gives in and calls Customer Service.
After a brief conversation with Tom, who uses "Right On!" so enthusiastically, Julia receives an e-mail stating they received a personal item and will mail it back ASAP. Julia then mailed out (today) The Hangover in a nicely fit envelope.
+20 Points

Realizing her student loan went through today in account she wants to close? + 10 points, it gets the money out of the account faster.

Waiting on her $100 rewards to post to the account before she closes it? -20 points.

Realizing she only has to pay one application fee of $77 dollars, and then one prior to Jan 5 of $50 dollars, rather than 2 $77 fees, and one $50 fee? +100 points. Now she may eat food.

I don't feel like calculating my rather arbitrary numbers.

Oh wait! Something just occurred.

Witnessing cat growl, and then "bark" at someone running through my yard? + 60 points.

I guess that is somewhere around 240 points.

High five for the motherfucking Grefidunter.

Was doing my work at home shit, long story short I got slammed with a hellish malware (anti-malware wouldn't even run in Safe Mode). Soooo won't be around for a while. Xer this -is- the one downside, make sure you got hella good prevention (I normally have better but I couldn't get it running well and still do the job, hadn't adapted yet to the new set up).

So yeah.

Dunefar · « **Reply #1734 on:** December 29, 2010, 04:52:22 AM »

Toro, have you considered running a virtual machine to do this job? Sounds like you got slammed with something nasty.

Taishyr · « **Reply #1735 on:** December 29, 2010, 04:38:09 PM »

Yeah, 's gonna be what I look into when I get it back.

Talaysen · « **Reply #1736 on:** December 29, 2010, 05:26:43 PM »

I use VirtualBox for virtual machines. Seems to work pretty well and it's free.

Idun · « **Reply #1737 on:** December 29, 2010, 06:43:57 PM »

So the tickets I won are putting me in section 204, seats 3&4. I don't know if that's a good thing, but hey, it's free. It's in a side area. So the map tells me.

NotMiki · « **Reply #1738 on:** December 29, 2010, 07:27:39 PM »

Free is awesome, yes. Have fun!

Xeroma · « **Reply #1739 on:** December 30, 2010, 07:40:21 AM »

Tai, check your PMs when you get a chance, it's important.

Cotigo · « **Reply #1740 on:** December 30, 2010, 07:17:42 PM »

Found out I have until the weekend to be out of my current place, yesssssssssss. Gives me much more time to get out of here.

Met both of my roommates now. One seems very much like a dude, and the other also seems much like a dude, so I imagine there will be alcohol. Is a good sign?

Yoshiken · « **Reply #1741 on:** December 30, 2010, 07:38:11 PM »

Went shopping earlier to cover food for a mini-party tomorrow. Ended up spending about £70. Whoops.

Ah, well. Should be a good party, as long as other people can bring some alcohol - I was only covering food and non-alcoholic drinks due to a lack of ID. >.>

Also, spent most of today rearranging my room. I no longer have a computer desk (and am sitting on the floor right now) but will be having two chests of drawers by the end of tomorrow. A winning trade overall, methinks.

New Year's Resolution stats: Kept. For the first time in my life.

2010's was to write a chapter every month. Not nessesarily of the same story, but just a chapter. Of something. And get it posted. I started the year with just Sword and Shadow(based on FE7, guess the characters and win the no-prize), which I started...before I came to the DL I think. And now I have four, each for a different game.

So if anyone is interested, here you go: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/996189/

My stories all link from there. None of them are finished yet, but hopefully they're enjoyable all the same. And even if not...well, I'm still just amazed I managed to follow through on something for once, so hey. I'm kinda ^_____^ right now~
