It's Raining! Yaaaaaaaay!

Second Rule of Climbing: Friction is a fickle thing.

When I'm at work, I have all sorts of ideas of things to blog about.
By the time I get to the library, I've either forgotten them, or I'm just to tired to do it. u_u
I haven't gotten home on time since I got transferred, and, while the money is nice, my life is suffering. >_<

First Rule of Climbing: Gravity is NOT your friend!

First day at my new job and I get two hours of overtime.
My feelings are somewhere between "Yay money!" and "Ick, I didn't get home till almost ten. D:


And now, a random image by Lauren:



Hopefully I'll have my own interwebs soon. (Like, October)

Hooray for xkcd.
Boo for limited title length.



In other news, I got my transfer, also I'm now working in grocery, also a ten cent raise.
I'm back to being part time, but I'll still get close to forty hours a week.
It just means that my hours can get cut more easily than if I were full time.
Still, not 28x2 miles per day is a good thing.

Today is a perfect day.

65 degrees outside, not cloud in the sky, and I can see the moon in daylight.
For all that I love rain, as sunny days go, it's a good one.

Go out and have some fun.

Ergh....

I've done so much worldbuilding and now I can't think of a plot. T_T

Whoo hoo personalized plates.
That one was on a yellow Corvette, top down, successful looking 50ish buisness type at the wheel.

Anyway, I need to get some more work done on that story...
If I get any sort of cohesive plot together, I'll try and post the first installment this week.

Did I mentiond it before?
I'm attempting to write a serial novel. Those of you who've BESMed with me will probably recognize the main character and the setting...
Anyway, I'm gonna try and finish part one tonight. Look for it wednesday, it'll be in it's own blog.
Wish me luck and inspiration!

Incidentally, the rain was beautiful.

Monday was very nice...and wet. :D

So, I've been told I should be getting transfered within "a couple of weeks."
Assuming of course, that niether of my replacements decide to up and quit. >_O
Keep you fingers crossed, guys. >_<

Existential elephants effect exciting events everyday.

You know how sometimes, everything goes just the way you imagined and hoped it would, but....It's not the right person.
Maybe you'll find her someday. >_<


Today's needlessly emo post was brought to you by: The letter E.

Car as a melee weapon.

I have a nice new dent on the side of my car.
Apparently, some idiots got into a fight out in the parking lot and my car was used as a hard surface against which heads were bashed.
*sigh* Such is life in the "less bad" part of town.
Seriously people, grow up?

Geez, that was a long layover, and even I can only read for so long...

Alternate title: The DS just bumped the Wii and a new computer for top spot on my console priority list.

Yeah... I miss having a gameboy.

In other news: I'm home! Yay!
I have to work tonight! Not so yay!
Yay!
>_<
I had a great vacation, now wish me luck on my transfer.

Coming home!

Yeah, I'm in a coffee shop in Mexico.
And I fly home this afternoon, but I won't get there until 7:00am tomorrow morning.
So, wish me a safe flight and I'll blog you soon. :d

The future is now...and now....and now....darn, I just can't keep up.

And on that note: check the date on this post...I won't be back till tomorrow, but I'm probably on a plane right now.

Neon Striped Fences.

I jest not.
So here I am at Purdue, and it occurs to me that two of the highest points of my summer are going to have been visits to college campuses.
So....why the hell am I not in college?
I think it's time I started working on that....^^;
Anyway, two days to Mexico!

In the event that anybody actually does read this thing....

I will be leaving the state on wednesday, and the country on saturday. I may or may not have internet access/time to ge ton between those two events.
After I leave the country I almost definitely won't.
If things go according to plan I'll be back on Thursday the 9th, though who knows if I'll have time or energy to do anything before friday.
So, till then, see ya, and wish me a happy vacation. :D

I really like this song....It's sad. T-T

Viktor was born in the spring of '44
And never saw his father anymore
A child of sacrifice, a child of war
Another son who never had a father after Leningrad

Went off to school and learned to serve the state
Followed the rules and drank his vodka straight
The only way to live was drown the hate
A Russian life was very sad
And such was life in Leningrad

I was born in '49
A cold war kid in McCarthy time
Stop 'em at the 38th Parallel
Blast those yellow reds to hell
And cold war kids were hard to kill
Under their desk in an air raid drill
Haven't they heard we won the war
What do they keep on fighting for?

Viktor was sent to some Red Army town
Served out his time, became a circus clown
The greatest happiness he'd ever found
Was making Russian children glad
And children lived in Leningrad

But children lived in Levittown
And hid in the shelters underground
Until the Soviets turned their ships around
And tore the Cuban missiles down
And in that bright October sun
We knew our childhood days were done
And I watched my friends go off to war
What do they keep on fighting for?

And so my child and I came to this place
To meet him eye to eye and face to face
He made my daughter laugh, then we embraced
We never knew what friends we had
Until we came to Leningrad

Leningrad-Billy Joel



So anyway, I've gotta get some lines down on paper before I lose them...
Everything's busy now.
And hectic.
And budgets are tight, but not breaking.
We'll see where I am after my (too short, too full) vacation.
Hey, hey, I got lots of Zelda cards.
I hope I can afford more soon. >_<
I MUST HAVE THEM ALL!
And I could win a Wii!
But there's only ten available...
But there's 125 chances for the nifty Zelda: TP T-shirt! :D
Also: CARDS! *explodes in a fit of unseemly fanboyism*

Nobody reads my blog anymore! T_T

Not that it matters much.
Incidentally: title link, yay!

Oh, and If you die in Canada, you die in real life!


Update at 1:24 pm
Hmm...this line has been floating around my head since some time last night...
"And I'll feel better in October;
So call me when September's over..."
It has music attached but no context.
I need context.
I very much want to write this song/poem just for the sake of this line. >_<

O_O!

Zelda Twilight Princess collectible trading cards!
I have a new reason to be permenantly broke!
Yay! >_<

Click the title link to see for your self.



The Middletown Meijer will be sold out shortly.... >.> <.<

"The internet is made of paper and awesome"

Word.

Thank God it had a happy ending.

It's a bout time something went the way I wanted it to.
