No ****!

 

We unpacked these things just before 2 in the afternoon,.. and by 7 in the evening both were down several rounds a piece.

 

I do believe he was making a toy-store run today to buy several replacement ammo packs for each, however. :D

 

All my plans fell through today... so I hopped in my car and took a long drive. Down all the back roads to the towns I grew up in, until I reached the Cape Cod canal. Hung out down there for a while, soaking it all in and thinking about things.

 

Made me feel a bit better; calmed me down a bit (at least mentally); and made me feel a bit more positive about life and my future, at least in the short run, anyways.

 

Visiting 'home' always does that for me... though it occurred to me today that I have lived about twice of my life away from that area than I actually spent there.

 

But those were the places that almost all the "firsts" in my life took place... so it will always hold an almost mystical sway over me.

I've thought about it... but we could never (responsibly) do it at work.

 

And goofing off with toys while still on the clock... and especially when others are actually TRYING to do real work... well, THAT'S where all the fun really is!

 

:D

 

Years ago, we used to have a laser tag set at work, but once the parts started breaking it was pretty much the end of that.

Almost forgot, I am going to be doing Paintball this weekend with a bunch of co-workers.. barring any demonic forces that prevent me.

 

And Zargon, your welcome to join us for some board/card games with the person that did the artwork for the games. Right off the tollway just north of Rockford. Granted even tho the convention is in FIBland it is closer to my home base then yours

'On Demand' is about all I ever watch anymore.

 

Slow and easy day at work.

Got home and fell asleep early.

 

Not a whole lot left to report...

 

I'd like a 5 string bass one of these days... but I really can't buy anything big until that cellar room is finished and re-open for habitation.

coincidental to the conversation, we are playing airsoft for a few hours of it, after we watch the UI UW football game..........

any of you are welcome, I can find floorspace somewhere :D

 

21 only though of course, all the good strip joints require that.......and I havent been told but assume a visit to one is on the agenda :confused:

sounds like fun

 

i decided to make my move today. called the girl, got voicemail, i decided to leave one, asking if she wanted to hang out tonight. I got a text about 15 mins later that she was at work. i replied 'ok call me when you are done if you wanna hang out' and she replied 'k'

 

If i don't get a phone call, should i forget about her and move on? or keep advancing?

Work was slow. Not much to report there.

 

Today won't be the same. Lyndsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac. Bringing a 50+ foot semi packed with gear. They're using all thier own equipment: consoles, P.A., lights... Gonna be a long day.

 

He's bringing 75(!) guitars that have to live backstage somewhere. We had to remove our grand piano to make more room for guitars. Craziness...

 

Teeth cleaning was pretty brutal. They gave me another new hygienist. She was nice... but very thorough. Scraped away for over an hour... my teeth look great! The cleanest they've been in many years... but my gums are still sore.

Did they tell you to floss more? They tell me to floss more every time, even though I floss twice a day. I think I may have to quit my job and just dedicate my life to flossing to make my dentist happy.

He is pretty kick-ass. I'll probably watch some of it. I'm sure it's going to be a great show.

It's gonna be crazy loud though... so in order to save my ears for when I mix, I probably won't watch much (and I despise watching a concert with earplugs in...)

 

It's been a pretty easy day. Most of crew was pretty cool... but there was one serious douchebag amongst them... and that's really all it takes to make the day far longer than it really needs to be.

Of course they did. I don't floss anywhere close to what I should do though... so it's probably legit. I've never had a cavity, though.

 

I usually do pretty good with flossing religiously for the first couple of weeks or month after a dentist visit... but eventually I drop off again, and by the time I return to the office, I cannot honestly say I'm flossing anywhere near enough.

 

My problem is the epic quantity of black tea I drink every day. Stains the bejeezus out of my front teeth. Takes forever to scrape all that off and polish it away.

lol wtf. yeah ****in boring day and night at work. i'm bored as hell. nothing to do. games are boring. got all my stuff out of storage. can't find my xbox live communicator headset, so im pissed about that. need a haircut bad. i think i'll shave my hair off...2 months of letting it grow, and then it gets good to put gel in and a week later it's like crap. i hate my hair, it's not like i get any women with it anyways so i'll just shave it off.

 

my friends went out of town for the weekend so i'm stuck here at home, bored to death, and pretty ****in depressed. I think i'll hit up places for a second job, mornings like 7am-11am since walmart deciding to cut my hours. not like i do anything in my free time anyways other than sit around being bored to death. figure if i can get a second job, i can save money and move out. sick of not having my own place. if that doesn't work, **** it, i'll sign up again, if it gets to that point, i don't think anybody will give a **** if i die anyway. :)

1:30. That's in the a.m.

 

Just got home. Show was good. What I watched of it anyway. Maybe about half of the show. It was loud... but at least it sounded pretty good. Still... I would have enjoyed it more if I could have listened without plugs in.

 

15... try not to think like that. Someone always cares. I do know how you feel man, I get there sometimes myself... (too often that I care to admit...) but I always try to tell myself that it would matter to somebody... probably a lot more people than you can possibly realize right now.

yeah i guess thats kinda being a dick to think that. a bit disrespectful maybe. =\

 

just a little pissed. it's just annoying though, like alot of **** happens, then one small, insignificant thing will cheer me up and i'll forget about it and be happy for like a day or maybe 2, then i'll be back to being mad and pissed again. maybe i am bipolar. :(
