Work was crazy. No particular single event of craziness but a continual series of things registering between 6 and 7 on the craziness scale. People complaining, swearing, arguing and generally being angry all for silly little things. And then there’s the guy from plant one who periodically lets out a loud wail/cry of “Help!”
You remember [...]

Today three more welders from plant one came over to assemble. The one I got to work with doesn’t talk. Great. A new guy that doesn’t talk? Let’s put him with Jerome - he doesn’t have enough trouble staying awake yet.
He also couldn’t use a screw gun when he started this morning and he looks [...]

Checked out The World’s Biggest Bookstore today. Just another one owned by Indigo, it seems.
It was dusk by the time I had picked up my bike and subs for Shawn and I and was finally on my way home. Since then I’ve just been getting things in order. Half my desk is organized now. It’s [...]

Laura and I had lunch at Mr. Green Jeans with a bunch of her girlfriends. The service was slow as hell but only because they thought I was a pimp and once I got my giant orange pop and hamburger, all was well.

Laura and I split a medium pizza for dinner. My half was full [...]

Laura decided to save me some time and write out my day for me:

Work sucked because I missed Laura too much.
Met Laura at the bus terminal in the rain… I’m a jerk and made her walk in the rain to meet me.
We got dinner at Harvey’s and then fooled around so we were almost late [...]

Blow me down! With the chemistry assignment turned in earlier this week yarr, I can start finalizing grad things. There was a slight hiccup with my physics minor but it’s all cleared up now after the physics advisor talked to someone at the registrar’s office about the (now-retired) department head’s personal approval of my minor [...]

Maybe I’ll get a chance to rest up soon. Maybe.
The past couple days, I’ve been working with this guy who sounds like the Vortigaunt from Half-Life 2 and I’ve finally figured out what he reminds me of: A poor computer game AI. It’s as if he understands the basic physical motions required in a task [...]

Dennis and I went out on a man-date tonight to Ethel’s for cheap tacos. Antijitos, lots of tacos and beer. Mmm… life is good.

After hanging out there, we headed to his place so I could see his expensive slim little camera and then we played some co-op Half-Life and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect on his PS2.

I [...]

Woke up this morning and called in sick. I gave a weak excuse relating to an earache but whatever. The goal was to have the day to finish off this blasted assignment.

It was supposed to be the symbol of A Perfect Circle but my drawing skills are lacking and it really just looked like a [...]

I should count the number of times in a weekend that Laura calls me a slut. If I had kept track, the count would have looked something like this:

My room’s slowly looking more and more organized. It’s small things and overall I hate how messy it is with piles of papers and such everywhere, but [...]
