The best part, I feel, is I was when I realized I'm wearing a skull and crossbones shirt that says "Game Over."

Proof of God, says I. Proof of God.

More like they got tired of a lazy, unfocused employee who clearly hated his job for all of the 9 months that he was there.

Anyhow, I should only have one more notably bad thing left to happen to me before I'm in the clear for a while. Rule of threes.

My boss is watching transformers, my coworker is playing farmville on FB, and I'm reading the WoT and hanging out in chat. I love my job.


I still need a second job, but I love the first!

It is a student's duty to leak money from their university wherever they can.  They jack enough from us for tuition that never actually gets past administrative pockets, so there's no reason to feel guilty unless you're straight up stealing from your department.

I think it's warm enough in the morning to start my running regimen again. I just have to get rid of all the udon and I'll start replacing my food with more wholesome things. I understand I can make udon wholesome, but I'm looking for course meals and not soups.

Man, an unemployment where you're not fretting about when you're getting another job?  YOU ARE DOING THE GLOBAL RECESSION WRONG.

Things that suck: needing to throw up while you're already on the toilet so your only hope is to lean to the side and hope it all makes it into the shower.

The good news: well, it did.

The bad news: I used the phrase "leaking from both ends" earlier today metaphorically. It is no longer a metaphor.

I'm just taking the week off! My new job starts next week and I'm likely to not get vacations until next year!

Sad part is that I've never had work vacations so far. =(

Ugh.  Poor luck Gate, may recovery be swift.

Car get.  I feel like less of a giant now that I'm finding levers to adjust the seat better, but still pretty different from what I had.  On the plus side, it doesn't seem to have anything waiting to blow up.

At least you didn't have to vomit just as you finished the lower half thus forcing you to vomit into the john before you could flush.  Bonus points because we have a seperate bathroom and toilet.  Choices of vomit all over the disgusting shit or vomit on onto the floor (Or into your shirt if you can strip fast enough) they are all winners.

So you know what is fun?  Having vertigo.  Then going to work anyway because your boss is away so you are kind of needed.  So stumble around getting ready slowly and being late will probably miss the bus.  Get like a quarter of the way to the bus stop just down a small hill.  Trip in the gutter and bang up my ankle.  Oh and it is raining and the gutters are overflowing (walking in the rain is fine, tripping in the rain not so much).  So quarter fo the way to the bus stop to work, dizzy as all fuck, unable to even do my normal vertigo induced shuffle slide because I am reduced to an unbalanced hobble.  Saturated in dirty water that is in the gutters because there is a ton of roadworks near my place.

Yeah I turned around and went back home for the second shower of the day and a chance to lie/sit down.

Edit - Of course still better off than Gate.  Been where he is already in the last few months and have no desire to return.  Buckets are good if you have them around.

So, if you have a bunch of games you don't really play anymore lying around, I just found out that GameStop is giving 50% bonus credit on all trade-ins. I found this out when I traded in... nine? Games that I haven't played in four or more months (only three of which were what I would call "good") as I do about once a year, and got $123.15 in store credit. Which was nice.
