god today sucked ass like a motherfucker… I took 6 calls in damn 8 hours… spent all day just browsing CompUSA and various other sites to see what is gonna be on sale tomorrow. I found a 256MB USB 2.0 flash drive for $50, but it’s only on sale from 6-12 tomorrow. That means we have to get up early to make it, which is gay. On the other hand, I could just buy a damn burner, but really it wouldn’t do me THAT much good. The jump drive is cool because I can throw shit on it, put it on my keyring and have that stuff anywhere I go and can use it wherever on any computer. Rocks nuts if you ask me. Normally a 128 MB is like $50, so a 256 for that price is a damn good deal! 
Hopefully we can get up early enough to make it, though… Anyway… that’s all for now

Humm… I’m fucking bored.. plain and simple. I’ve beaten Need For Speed: Underground, so there’s nothing left to accomplish there. I suppose I could play back through the game for shits & giggles, but what fun is that? I have to work tomorrow, which should be TONS of fun (insert sarcasm here). They have this horribly homosexual rule now that says we can’t read books, newspapers, or anything of that nature while we’re on the floor… On top of that, we can’t DO anything in between calls, either (puzzles, games, etc). Supposedly we’re not supposed to browse non work-related sites while we’re there either. I’ve seen people doing it off and on, but probably not in a high enough quantity to spark any interest of the IS people. They’ve fired 2 supervisors and 3 reps that I was friends with in the past month or so… they’re on the warpath like a motherfucker. I haven’t done anything that would warrant any sort of disciplinary action from them, so I’m not too worried about it at the moment. I’ve kept my nose clean while I’ve been there, mostly because I actually halfway sorta kinda like my job for a change. Admittedly, having plenty of beautiful women to look at helps matters out quite a bit. There are even a few good looking black girls at work! I’m not attracted to black women normally… but I can think of at least 4 or 5 that I wouldn’t mind spending an hour or two with. Most of us lowly peons with no seniority work tomorrow, so maybe I’ll have some people to talk to while I’m there since I doubt I’ll be talking on the phone much at all… Thankfully I’m off Friday, but I won’t be doing a whole lot since I have to work on Saturday. 
However, on Saturday after work, I’ll be going out and quite possibly might have to be carried out of the club by my friends. The porcelain god and I will be on a first name basis on Sunday, I’m sure. Sunday night is my normal drinking night, so I might drink a little that night but probably won’t get shitty hammered. I think I might go buy a bottle of Jager so I can get a little tipsy before I go out to Joes… then I won’t spend AS much while I’m there. After all, it’s quite a bit cheaper to buy a fifth of Jager ($22, I guess) when that very same $22 gets me about 3-4 drinks including tips. Maybe I can even talk my friends into buying me a few drinks since it’s my birthday and all. 
We shall see… Heh… for now, that’s all.. back to being bored and listening to music.
Wow…. last night was just… heh.. yeah… weird. I got really really ripped drinking Jagermeister as usual. However, in the course of a night, I did a few things that I would normally never do. First of all is the shooter girl at Joes that I’ve been drooling over for quite some time now. Last night, for some unknown reason, I just looked at her and said “Can I say something to you and you not get offended?”, to which she replied “Depends on what it is…”. I guess she thought it was going to be bad or something… but I just told her that she was the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen (and she probably is). I also ended up grabbing this one girl’s ass… talked to her about her boobs… told her friend that she had incredibly beautiful eyes… told this girl Kristen that I know from when I worked at Papa Johns that she had a really nice body…. Talked to the redhead a little bit, but didn’t say anything majorly important to her. She has a boyfriend or something, but she doesn’t see him very often and it seems to me that she’s not THAT into him, to be honest. She didn’t seem too thrilled about having to go do shit with his family on Thanksgiving. Last night was most certainly interesting. I came home, hit the couch, and was out like a light. I wake up in the morning to a nice message on my computer screen which informs me something like “NON-SYSTEM DISK ERROR, PLEASE INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER TO CONTINUE”, which I promptly do and am greeted with the message “BOOT FROM ATAPI CD ROM…..” and press enter again, and nothing happens… SHIT. So I reset and then it hangs on “detecting IDE devices”… SHIT SHIT! I turn it off and then back on… hangs at the same point again. I didn’t feel like fucking with it, so I just shut it off and went back to bed… woke up, checked the power and IDE cables, booted the computer back up and all went well. Go figure… stupid fucking computer. So I wake up to go to work without a hangover, which was really nice. My stomach felt kinda raunchy and I had the shits, but I didn’t feel really terrible. I took a shower and went to work and all was well. My roommate shows up to get me from work tonight and has my best female friend in the car with him. We go to Wal-Mart and pick up a 24 pack of toilet paper and browse through the electronics and stuff for awhile then come home… that’s been my day. How FUN! Nothing else more of interest to post at the moment. If I come up with more, I’ll be sure to throw it down. 
I’ve been slacking hardcore. I just don’t blog like I used to, I don’t guess. Fact is, the last few days I’ve been addicted to Need For Speed Underground. It’s quite a frustrating game, but goddamn it’s fucking fun. Basically, the idea is you take an import car, supe it up, win races, win money… fun stuff. You can add tons and tons and tons of mods and other cool stuff… paint it the way you want it, put kickass wheels, body kits, etc on it. So yeah, I’ve been way addicted.. My birthday is next Saturday and I have to work. How fucking gay is that? I work 1-10, so I’ll still have time to go out and get drunk as all holy fucking hell. Fun! I WILL get drunk, and I WILL get some ass that weekend; plain and simple. It’s been 5 weeks as it is and it sucks. There’s a couple cute girls at work I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on, but it’s not like I can go up to them at work and mention it to them… I don’t really wanna get fired, yanno? My schedule this week is just plain fucked up. I’m off Sunday, work Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, off Fri, work Sat, off Sun. I have to work every other Saturday, so it just so happens that my Saturday to work falls on my birthday, which is completely homosexual. I could have asked for it off, but I doubt I would have gotten it anyway. Oh, well… it won’t be all that bad. It’s Thanksgiving weekend and most people will be out of town or out shopping, so we shouldn’t be all that busy. Well, time to go play some more… be back to blog again later, probably.
blah… still not tired… this is getting so old so quick… you gotta be kidding me. I have to work at 1pm and I’m still not in bed. I’ll just catch up on my sleep later this week. I’m kinda hungry and I’ve been doing laundry… but blah.. I’d rather be in bed. And I’ve still not changed the station. I should listen to something different. Although there’s a DJ GT mix on right now and they’re always really good. Nothing else interesting to post right now. Just fucking BORED.
woo… fun stuff… not… Nothing important been happening around here lately, really. My roommate Phil just got a job at the same place I’m working through the same temp agency. He’ll be in a somewhat different department, but still working in the same general area, probably 3 rows up from me. Best thing of all is that his schedule is gonna be basically the same as mine (1pm-10pm). I’ve been listening to the fucking vocal trance station on di.fm for like 3 hours straight now, which is highly unusual. I think it’s just lack of the will to change it to something else. The stuff’s not been too bad, just slightly poppy and happy for my tastes. Bassdrive was playing some decent stuff earlier, but nothing to make me wanna stick around and listen all night long. I’ve officially gone 4+ weeks without getting any ass and it’s getting fucking old quick. Well, to re-phrase, I can go a LONG time without fucking anyone, but the whole going 4 weeks without giving noggin is just ridiculous. There’s a shooter girl @ Cotton Eyed Joes that I’d give my left nut to get my hands on for a few hours just once, but I don’t have the balls to approach her about such things. I can barely talk to her, much less ask her if I can go down on her. I know she likes it, but still. I’m not exactly hot and nowhere near in her league. Maybe I’ll get really ripped this weekend and discuss it with her (hah, yeah right!). About the best I’ve done lately when it comes to such things is when I told this chick at work that she has a beautiful smile. She’s actually damn hot overall, but I didn’t wanna just be like “you’re so fucking beautiful”, so I figured I’d just compliment her on her smile. My birthday is officially 10 days away… woo, I turn 25, big fucking deal. I’ll end up having to work, which will suck… but I’ll get over it. It’s not like I was going to do anything that afternoon anyway. I’ll probably end up going out that night (and the following night as well) and having some fun, but other than that, no major plans. Humm….
I bought a new wireless optical mouse (Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer) and I absolutely love it. It’s nice not having to dodge my mouse cord everytime I sit down at my computer. It’s a bit heavier than I’m used to, but it’s easy to adjust.
I honestly wish I could get away with blogging during my workday… it’d keep me from getting too bored at work and give me something to do. I think of all kinds of random stuff during the day that I’d love to post, but just can’t because I don’t wanna get fired for stupid shit. Personally, I don’t see the big harm in it, but they probably see it as lost productivity and/or revenue. Frankly, if they took a look, they’d probably find that I’m one of the most productive people they have there. I probably get more shit done in a given day than most people do in 2 or 3. Very few people are willing to go to the lengths to which I go to satisfy a customer (or retailer or installer). Some of our installers, as a matter of fact, refuse to talk to anyone but me simply because they know if they come to me with a problem, I get shit done. Amusingly enough, our senior CSR’s have started referring troubleshooting calls my way as well. Saves them the work, I guess… and I really don’t mind it. I kinda like the technical side of things. I’ve always kinda enjoyed helping people with technical problems with computers, home theater systems, TV’s, whatever. I’m a geek, what can I say. Sue me. Oh well… I’m bitching about something that can’t be fixed to people who can’t do shit about it… and it doesn’t make me feel any better. So I suppose I’m done for now. Maybe more tomorrow (or later today, depending on your point of view).
Yeah, really… no updates all week. I guess I had nothing important to post, or at least nothing I THOUGHT was important. My site has become rather stale and I can’t think of any new ideas for things to put on it, unfortunately. My blog has become about all that updates on my page anymore. I suppose I could add more stuff to the love/hate pages, but all of that’s been covered here in my blog. About the only interesting thing that’s been going on lately is my roommate and his newfound girlfriend. He seems really happy, which is cool as hell; At least SOMEONE is getting somewhere… I was starting to think this house was fucking cursed or something. I haven’t gotten any ass in like a month, and the last chick I nailed is now “Brandon’s gurl” (again moving a bit quickly… not even a month and she’s already “committed”). I guess I’m just weird… slow, perhaps. Not sure, but I just can’t even remotely begin to even consider being “committed to a girl unless we’ve been talking/dating/fucking/seeing each other for like 4-5-6 months or so. I guess maybe I’m just terribly cautious and I’m driven by my mind instead of my heart. I know I come across as “cold” sometimes, but I’m just not one to come pouring out with affection. I’m not jealous or posessive… I don’t require much attention, and I’m not the smothering type. I’m just as happy sitting next to a girl just talking as I am sitting with my arms wrapped around her and my head on her shoulder and such. I guess I’m not very touchy-feely. I’d just as soon connect with a girl on an intellectual level as a physical one. I don’t like public display of affection… If a girl is out in public with me, she’s lucky if I hold her hand and maybe give her a quick kiss when no one’s looking. And ya know, if I spend more than 3 days in a row with a girl, I swear to god I’m ready to strangle the bitch and knock her teeth down her throat… ok, not quite that bad, but you get the idea. I’m ready for her to be gone. I gotta have my damn space! I guess the easiest way to put it is that I’m simply a thinker and not a feeler. I overanalyze everything and never let my heart have a say in my decisions. It’s probably not the best way to be, as it tends to make me a bit more uptight about things (love in particular). Unfortunately, I can’t forsee myself changing anytime soon. Oh, well… on to the next subject… Oh, this one girl at work that I’ve been just utterly drooling over. Her name’s Jennifer… she’s a bit thinner than most girls I’d ever go after, but there’s just something about her that drives me fucking bananas. Anyway, she was about to leave Friday night and had to run to the bathroom before she left. Well, on her way back to her desk, which leads her right by my desk, I stopped her and informed her that she had one of the most beautiful smiles I’d ever seen. Surprisingly, she smiled at me and said thank you. She actually seemed genuinely flattered by the compliment. I dunno, I suppose I expected a “heh, thanks” kinda reaction from a girl that hot. Especially coming from someone who’s less than attractive. I dunno what got into me Friday but it was by far the most I’ve ever talked to her. I felt kinda dumb trying to keep up a conversation with her because the whole time I’m thinking “goddamn this girl’s so far outta my league, what the hell am I doing?”, but still I feel a bit better for having actually talked to her instead of just silently drooling over her everytime she walked by. Ironically enough, she’s probably not the girl I’d pick first if I could have any female there. By far it would have to be this one redhead there… She’s built almost perfectly (about a size 8 or 10, I’d guess) and SHE’S A FUCKING REDHEAD! Plus, she has a dimple when she smiles… omg, a redhead with dimples *melts*. I don’t talk to her much, mostly because I get all nervous and stupid when she comes around. She loves to drink, which is a big plus in my book. Realistically, I don’t think I’d stand much of a chance in hell with her, but I can still dream, right? Oh well… off to search for reasons why my sound card’s control panel refuses to work with the new driver update. I’ve not seen anyone else with this problem, so I find it rather annoying.
wow… just got back from Joes (a club around here for those of you not in the know) and I’m not drunk. That’s not to say I didn’t drink, but I’m not drunk. I had a nazi coke, 2 redheaded sluts, a rotten peach, a sex with an alligator, and a sexual frustration… all to no avail. I got a nice buzz, but was nowhere near drunk. The redhead (Rachael) was there again and we talked quite a bit (a bit more than usual, I guess). Admittedly, I kinda like her. She’s got a fucking great personality and she’s reasonably attractive. She’s got this amazingly sexy long red hair and a cute smile. Ok, so she’s not model material, but there’s just something about her. Most likely it’s her personality. Honestly, the more I talk to her, the more physically attractive she becomes. I don’t think I stand a chance in hell with her for various reasons… one of which being the fact that she’s almost 6 feet tall and I’m all of 5′8. I’ve never met a tall girl who’d date a guy shorter than her. Oh well… I dig her, she doesn’t dig me.. I’m rather used to it at this point. I didn’t have all THAT much fun, actually. Having her there honestly makes things a bit more interesting because we always end up talking a fair amount and she’s about the only person there that I can always have a decent conversation with. I think that’s the most important thing I look for in a girl… is she intelligent? I don’t give two flying monkey fucks how goddamn hot a girl is… if she’s not intelligent and can’t hold down a decent conversation with me, fuck her. People wonder why I get so bored of girls so damn quickly; that’s the reason right there. I want a girl who’s wicked intelligent and can hold down a decent conversation and hold her own opinions about things and isn’t afraid to express them. I can’t stand doormat girls… and I can’t stand a girl who wants to crawl up my ass and die. Not to mention girls who are overly physical… Just because I don’t kiss you every 30 seconds and am not constantly touching you doesn’t mean I’m not “into” you. On that note, I’m not even a big fan of kissing, and I sure as fuck don’t like tongue kissing. If you try to shove your tongue down my throat, you can guarantee I’m not going to be enjoying kissing you and probably won’t want to do it again. I like to be affectionate, but only sporadically… that way when I AM incredibly affectionate, it’s really something special. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not the type that’s ever going to ignore a girl, but I’m also not the type to be all about making out in public in front of other people and such. I guess I’m just weird…. I don’t think I’m what most girls want in a guy… but that’s just the way I am and I’m not about to change. Heh, I’m not even really in a hurry to find a girlfriend or anything, anyway. I’d like to have someone to go down on regularly… but I don’t think I’m the type that’s going to want to jump into any sort of serious relationship right now. I’m NOT jealous at all, and most girls are really weirded out by that. I don’t care if you go hang out with your guy friends and get drunk… I could give two shits less if you go out and have fun with your female friends a couple times a week. The way I see it, if you’re a decent person and I’m good to you, you’ll have no reason to cheat on me, so there’s no reason to be jealous. On the other hand, if you cheat on me, you’re basically not trustworthy, a slut, and not worth my time anyway. Being jealous is not going to change whether or not you cheat on me. Hence, jealousy is pointless. Oh, well… I think I’m done ranting for now. If I come up with more, I’ll post later. I might just go to sleep, though.
Amusing… I just took a Zodiac compatibility test on www.emode.com and turns out I’m most compatible with a Sag. Not surprising since I’m a Sag myself… Here’s what it said word-for-word. The synopsis is so incredibly exactly like me, it’s not even funny… I swear someone has been watching over me and typed this up in response to what they’ve seen while watching me… amusing
Sagittarius is among your best matches. The Archer’s free-spirited ways and pleasure-driven approach to life are right up your alley. You’re also not one to be dissuaded by Sagittarian indecisiveness. As a result, this sign’s better qualities will almost surely surpass their shortcomings. Romance between you and a Sagittarius might just become true love.
You can keep an eye out for potential Sagittarius partners by noticing the people around you who speak quickly and stay on the move. Sagittarians are known for rushing optimistically forward in both the conversation and in life. People of this sign are often witty, sometimes flirtatious, and also prone to telling wild stories full of exaggeration. They love adventure, and their spirits generally run high. Your first impression of the Archer will likely be a favorable one, because they’re so easy to talk with and interesting to listen to.
A Sagittarius’ sense of adventure often leads to taking risks and exploring unknown territory. They feel compelled to increase their freedom and enjoyment almost constantly. The most favored way for the Archer to do this is in trekking into the wild blue yonder. Sagittarians are seldom fearful of what they may encounter. This bravery is due in large part to their optimism, as well as their firm belief that they are both lucky and smart. You’re apt to find yourself in awe of this fearlessness, and you’ll probably genuinely appreciate a Sagittarian’s sense of adventure. Joining a Sagittarius in their ongoing travels would probably prove interesting and energizing for you.
Throughout their travels far and near, Sagittarians search to understand the big picture and the meaning of life. However, because their quest is much larger than any one person can expect to accomplish in a lifetime, an Archer is ultimately set up for a lifetime of wandering and learning. This eternal quest tends to make Sagittarians intelligent people. After all, they’ve been questioning all their lives, and most will continue to do so. This intellectual curiosity can really fascinate you. A Sagittarian’s thoughtful consideration of weighty philosophical issues is just one more way that they’re likely to draw you in. Know that the more time you spend around a Sagittarius, the more you’re apt to find yourself with questions rather than hard and fast answers about the mysteries of life.
The Archer has a tendency toward restlessness. If things stay the same for too long, they’ll often want to make a move to shake things up. Sometimes this tendency can invigorate a relationship, and other times it can harm it. This all depends how trapped a Sagittarian feels. People of this sign don’t stay by your side simply because you have a committed relationship. They need to feel that they have the freedom to opt out of a relationship if it is no longer vital. This will almost certainly not be an acceptable arrangement for you. And if you feel that you can change this fact about a Sagittarian, think again.
By the same token, Sagittarians usually have mixed feelings about following the traditional relationship route to marriage and children. They can be ever questioning when it comes to established conventions and may feel apprehensive about making long-term commitments. This doesn’t mean that a Sagittarius never gets married. They just come to it less easily and naturally than some of the other signs. You’ll probably understand this kind of hesitance and respect the Archer’s need to thoroughly consider things before moving your relationship to the next level. In fact, you may feel much the same way.
In the bedroom, a Sagittarius lover will usually keep your interest with their sexual knowledge and creativity. Oftentimes, the Archer has done their research when it comes to maximizing pleasure in the bedroom. Even if they haven’t, they’re usually quick to learn and have a good deal of energy. People of this sign generally listen well and will make you feel comfortable in sharing your desires. Overall, the Sagittarian approach is likely to be very encouraging to you. In fact, you’re apt to find real happiness and satisfaction with a Sagittarian partner in this arena.
In many areas of life, Sagittarians’ directness sometimes gets them into trouble. People of this sign tend to speak without thinking through the effect of their words. They can sometimes be quite blunt. The good news is that Sagittarians rarely mean any harm. Once they’ve spoken they’re also the kind who are willing to hear the other side of an issue. So although a Sagittarian’s bluntness can sometimes smart, you’ll probably prefer it to not hearing what’s on your partner’s mind at all. Know that generally the Archer argues fairly, listens to your needs and opinions, and tells you how they really feel.
