Do you feel a draft in here?
 Not quite done yet. I was a little too tipsy to dare take a blade to my head (my neck looks pretty rough just from where the trimmers cut me), but it doesn't look too bad for a trimmers + electric razor combination. | | Monday, December 24th, 2007 | | 10:10 am |

So long, and thanks for all the fish
Tomorrow, at 6am, I leave for a job in California. I'm not very happy about it, as the company has given me almost nothing in the way of aid as far as getting there, but it's that or hang around here until April/May when I go back to Alaska. Speaking of leaving, my sister (who I've been living with) has accepted a position in Peoria, Illinois starting in January. Her husband has very subtly (not) informed me that I am not welcome to come with them. So while I'm gone, all my stuff will be packed up and taken to my mother's house in Virginia, and my cat will go to Peoria (and no longer be my cat :/). Basically, this means that when I finish my next 2 jobs, I have nowhere to stay except for my parent's house in Virginia. So I guess this is goodbye, at least as far as North Carolina is concerned. | | Wednesday, September 19th, 2007 | | 12:23 am |
The TSA does not like the following items: Duct tape (particularly when it's on your shoes) External harddrives (especially when you forget to tell them about it) Travel packets of ibuprofen (unless you like getting patted down) Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. | | Sunday, September 16th, 2007 | | 8:37 am |
Wet sock + microwave = burning Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. | | Monday, September 10th, 2007 | | 12:01 am |

My coworker keeps saying impertinent when she means imperative. It's all I can do to keep from giggling when she says "It is impertinent that these guests call us back about their reservations." | | Wednesday, September 5th, 2007 | | 1:08 pm |

One week until my birthday One week until my interview with Mammoth Two weeks until my job ends Two weeks until my next day off | | Thursday, July 26th, 2007 | | 11:58 pm |
I am drucking funk write now. I blame it all on a combination of 1)A bartender who overpours and 2)A supervisor/drinking partner who always wants you to have another drink. Ah well, I have Friday off. No biggie. In other news, out of pity I ented the chess tournament here. There were only 3 people signed up when I added my name, and I felt kind of bad for them. Now there's like 20 people signed up. I had my first round match tonight, and I won. I felt bad for my opponent, because I totally owned him, even though I was playing black. It was all downhill for him once I forked his queen and rook, trading a knight for his queen. It was actually a pretty slow game, capture wise. I took one pawn, one bishop, and his queen, and he took one of my pawns and my knight. But he boxed himself in, and I was able to defeat him rather convincingly. I'm still not very confident about my chances, but at least I didn't lose in the first round like I thought I was going to. | | Friday, July 20th, 2007 | | 11:52 pm |
They actually showed "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" here in the rec room. This was the first time in years that I've actually heard the dialogue! I started out saying the audience participation lines, since the 2 other people with me had seen the movie before (though not in a theater) but then we were joined by my coworker who hadn't seen it, and she kept shushing me, so I gave up. Of course, the people who had already seen the movie left early, so after that point there was no reason for me to say the lines anyway. Ah well. At least it brought back some memories of home (both good and bad). | | 12:21 am |
My student loans are, finally, paid in full. *does a little dance, makes a little...well, scratch that, gets down tonight* | | Tuesday, July 10th, 2007 | | 5:19 pm |
While Aerosmith's "Eat the Rich" is entirely appropriate for this place, it probably doesn't put me in the right frame of mind for dealing with customers. | | Monday, July 2nd, 2007 | | 10:02 pm |
On July 20th, my long nightmare will be over. When I receive my paycheck on that day, I will be able to pay off my last student loan, leaving only my car to be paid off. I would dance, if I didn't think I'd hurt myself. | | Sunday, June 24th, 2007 | | 10:21 pm |
I went out drinking with my supervisor tonight. She was already hammered when I got there. She asked me if I wanted to smoke pot with her and her boyfriend sometime later this season. That was totally not what I was expecting. | | Friday, June 15th, 2007 | | 9:29 pm |
Every day I die a little bit more inside. At least two of my coworkers answer the random emails/invites they get on myspace (they're guys, of course) because the messages come with pictures of cute girls. I weep for the future. | | Tuesday, June 12th, 2007 | | 11:29 pm |
It's just about 11:30pm here. I worked 8am to 8:30pm, then we went to the bar/restaurant across the street. It was pretty nice, though I spent way too much money (everything is more expensive here, except the alcohol). There was supposed to be a band, but they didn't go on until after 11pm, and I was too tired and tipsy by then to want to stay, especially since I have to be at work at 8am (which means getting up at 6:30am). Unfortunately, I have no way to get home until 12am, and there's no way I'm going to try and walk a couple of miles after drinking. I guess I could hitchhike, but that still seems a little too risky to me. So instead I'm back in my office, playing around online until I can catch the bus. | | Saturday, June 9th, 2007 | | 8:20 pm |
I had to stay late running credit cards for the train sales. So it will be another 40 minutes until the bus comes to take me home. Alas. To make up for it, I'm "working" those extra minutes by updating my journal and checking my email. Luckily, the security on these PCs is crap. IE hits a proxy server that blocks most of the internet, but I was able to install Mozilla and it connects to everything without a hitch. I'm trying not to abuse it too much though, because I don't want to lose this wonderful benefit to working in this sweltering office. | | Friday, June 8th, 2007 | | 11:14 pm |
I am called "Debbie Downer" at work. I should be offended, but I take pride in my pessimism! | | Wednesday, June 6th, 2007 | | 9:37 pm |
