Cat is lookin into getting new laptop. So far shes got good taste as far as they go. Shes seems to be avoiding dell, ive heard of some really craptastic things happeing to them. Ive never really had issues with em but my dad has killed a few in his day. Shes lookin at a sony fxa53 (i think) and a fujitsu c2010 both are very nice machines... So if you have ever had a Sony of Fujitsu and know of any issues pertaining to eather one please let me know so i can pass the word on... She told me she saw a ibook at frys for $800 times like this i wish had $800. But i already have a laptop and a half (the half is a handicaped dell who is serving you this page) but its a ibook and OS X... I want... g3 power bsd core slim and sexy. My sony is big and sexy but not slim and sexy... ya ya im a geek i think hardware is sexy....
Anyways... I belive im heading to the fair sometime this evening. but evening is a long ways away from now so things could change.
1:18pm: done some moving of stuff in my room. now my laptop has a desk for it. sorta there is a lotta papers books and misc stuff on the desk too but laptop now has more of a home than it did before. ulitmate frisbee at 4 yay!!
7:26pm: Ultimate was short but fun. My team own (i think) even though we were one man short... Rented Trainspotting and Being John Malkovich. Its been a damn long time sinice the Train spotting. and never seen Being John Malkovich.
2 more days of weekend left!!! 3 day weekends RULE!!! tomorrow im supposed to hang out with Kim at some point. Havent really talked to or seen her since well since i graduated 2 years ago. I bumped into her a month or 2 back we started to make plans to hang out but never did so I saw her again a couple weeks ago at the theater where she works when Chris and I Minority Report. Chated some then it was time to catch the flick so I called her er Chris did for me but i talked after that...
Chris and I may hit the fair tonight. but hes still workin so its not lookin good...
Nikki is in town too maybe Joe Nikki Chris and I can all hit it...
who knows...
Wow this is a fucked up movie... good... but fucked all the same...
I need a new pair of Shoes... I need lots of shit...
its finaly friday and the end of the month. its about time. This month and week haven't been the best to me. oh well. im gonna make the most out of the weekend and next month i can... i think... or something... got a LAN party comin up on the 7th. Its been way too long since weve had one of those.
my meeting yesterday with Cyndi was mainily to be sure i understand my new tasks at work and that im ok with them... ok with them in the sence i can do them and know what they are. but im not as ok that i have to do them. oh not like i can do much about it... and there was a tad bit of ass kissing going on (not by me) durring the meetting... We count on you... don't know what we would do with out you.... and a free meal out of it... so i guess its all good?
gah still slightly upset about the southwest thing. perhaps i will go... doubt i will... maybe i will go down later on.... *mumbels something about southwest naziairbastardfuckers....*
I don't want to get out of bed.
Its warm and comphy. work isnt.
someone come wait in my bed for me and keep it warm? cuddle?
10:20pm: Saw CrankYankers over at Chris' place and Tencaious D was on and perfomed a song as puppets... but they were naked and i saw puppet penis... i was disturbed... i didnt think that was legal. its wrong. pupet getnitaila on tv....
Been seezing all night and morning. I hope i'm not getting sick cause I can't afford it... No insurnace.... Its thrusday and about damn time too... just 8ish hours of work left this week...
I think I have come to a decision involving my trip this weekend. My choice is (insert drum roll).... not goin. I think too much is still up in the air among many other supporting reasons.... could use the money to help pay the rest of state off and get started paying towards a car. So i dont have to trouble Chris or Cat for rides to and from airport. and other ones i had lots more but i for got them when i was sleeping... I have many reasons to go too... but for now i wont.
9:00am: wrote a new CD-review. still have to format it and post it at Junknstuff. i dont want the ALL the content for junknstuff.net to be here... so i will let you know when that is up... Sighs page will be going live soon... as soon as he approves and posts...
10:13am: um.. i have a meeting with Cyndi (one of my bosses) at 11 til around 11:30 i hope im not in trouble. I prolly am for somethin. She knows im not to fond of having to pick up the extra slack around here cause we are now short a registration specialst/reciptionist. Maybe she will just tell me my additute has been bad the last couple weeks... I get half the job of someone else and my job no shit my additude is gonna be a lil worse... I am a Tech not a fucking secratary... and ive had some stress in my personal life lately. I try not to let it affect my work but it does affect my aditude (as it does everyone). I try not to let on too it too much or at all. I think i do a decent job of it. My work life and nonwork life are quite seperate. oh well I'll let you know what happens at the meeting...
2:00pm: i just looked over the pics from the weekend... i need a trypod. anyone wanna give me one?
2:31pm: RAPE!!! ok so i look into refunding my flight for this weekend. i can get $14.00 or have them HOLD $170 towards futrue travel with in a year...... WTF!!!
What to do.
to go or not to go. this is the question of the day/week/hour/moment.
grr... input? questions? comments? help? please! its been a rough week. not just for me. it can still turn around and i hope it does for everyone...
damn it i don't want to go to work again.
yesterday was like manual labor day. picked up like 13 boxes from the mail room put a thosand or so books away, moved 6 computers (ya they were on carts but that doesnt make it super easy), put a coffee cart together and did some other bitch work...
on the up side i got ssi to work last night so i got new stuff to play with and do. more code to write and scripts to run on servers...
6:52pm: scripts running! it only took all day and nearly drove me nuts but i got it damn it... all in 23 lines of code too.. it could prolly be 20 or less if i didn't declare and set a few variables.....
11:05pm: went for another run.9 tonight. mile in 6:44.27 i knew i could do better than 7:00.... still think i could do better i fought with my MiniDisc Player some tonight... I can't really stand to run with out it or i would. Sound of my feat pounding the ground and my breathing just doesnt do it for me like music does....
Played some minigolf last night. Man i hate mini-golf. Chris loves it. Becuase of my loathing for the game and fact i would be grumpy and exteamly fuckin bored if i didn't i dont play by any paricular set of rules. I toss my ball near the hole then try to put it in. Or otherwise just hit my ball around madly on the courses, not stoping for much of anything if the balls in the water i will take 40 swings to get it out rather than picking it up. So it wasnt to terrible of a time. I think we may have scared Mike's friend Asuka, poor quite lil japanese girl exposed to me and Chris. Me play madman golf and chris tring to take me out the his ball on an occasion...
slept good til about 4:30am then couldnt quite get back to sleep...
1:15pm:Bought Sultans of Swing by Dire Straights I put it on the counter and the girl there looked over the guys sholder and kinda made a huh type noise as an i wouldnt have guessed" type.. Maybe i will go back next week and buy some rap. Then the next week and get some um... Techno... then maybe some ragage.... that could be fun... I just stay away from country i like pretty much everything else...
I have no computer in my cube this week. so updates my be sparse not to mention i may be sitting in class most of the week. I had a fun idea for a program last night so i think im gonna try to write it. gonna really have to learn some perl and a little more html. should be cool though if it works... but if it works only a few people can use it... cause it would annoy me if too many people did..
So whats everyones plans for this weekend?
I think mine have been... well cancled....
Its way to hot here at work. Warm and stale almost a lil sticky too... oh well. I can deal.... wonder if chris will be comin to class... He's not much of a coder and i havent done any serious coding other than HTML in a long long time... oh well. should be fun im sure i could learn something... wonder what the prereqs are....
9:45pm: went for that run last night. did a mile in 7:00.95. It would have prolly been faster had i not fumbled with my shirt and mini-disc player 2nd lap... maybe i will do it again tomorrow... felt great to do it.
music and running sepratly are very therapudic(sp?) for me the both are just amazing...
Going hiking at opal creek.... hopefuly some good pics will come of it and a good time... some time to think too...
went to opal creek. took some pics. was ok.
not all is well....
things hurt
angered
frustrated
fuck all
fuck fuck fuck fuck
maybe ill go on a run.
Well it wasn't florence it was Sand lake again no matter still had a great time. Got some more sun and made my farmers tan even worse. I will post some pics soon... Nothing spectualr this time as i wasnt there very long and the weather sucked for the most part but improved around noon to day but we left at 2 so we only had a couple hours of nice weather had fun riding too.
I may go to some classes my work is offering this week. But that would mean spending like 9 hours there per day for most of the week. Ug... oh well.. we will see. Chris would be in class with me so that could make it worth while...
other than that nothing new... but i must go now to hang out with Cat, Chris... et all...
2 maybe 3 hours of work left for me today. How time flys when i actualy have crap to do other than sit in my cube. What kind of work you may ask. Setup for IBM's WF311 course which is Servelet & JSP development using WebShphere Studio Application Developer Versions 4.0... sounds exciting doesnt it ;)....
Anyways. Its friday. This week went by pretty quickly and im glad it did. I'm hoping next week will pass just as quickly but i doubt it will seeing as i won't have a computer in my cube because some stupid simulation exersise some class needs it and the 5 others in the resourse room... No matter i just take my laptop in and use it for what i can.... and use other computers around the office to get the rest of my tasks done...
I also may be heading to Florence to go riding this weekend with my dad and maybe others, i dont know i just know its in the plan to go over there and ride... So hopefuly some more pics for the site. Sigh's page may be delayed some more because of this but I still need an e-mail telling me about how its supposed to look and id like to know a little about him before i build the page. I made a graphic for it but need approval...
well anyways its time for me to get back to work on good ol WF311...
the week is rapidly aproching the end. too bad i still have to work for a couple hours on Saturday. No biggie. Its hours.
Kristina's Movie Reviews is up. Still got minor tweeks to make to it but its up and for the most part done.
Sigh I don't know if you read this or not but your page is on its way. If Sigh doesnt read this Kala could you pass the message along. I also need some opinions on the head graphic for his page.
Last night was strange strange as far as sleep went. Got very hot and uncomfrotable as a result couldnt sleep even though i had nothing on and just one blanket on me. I think i still managed to get enough sleep. So its all good...
7:40am: The SQL Server Class will be finishing up today. It wasnt scheduled to finish until tomorrow so I don't have to come in on saturday anymore. YAY!
There was a comment left on the movie review page. We like comments but constructive ones. I know who left it. I'm not mad or anything. I have a feeling we would like to know what was done wrong and how to improve it rather than just telling us we fucked up help us to improve and encourage us. Thanks.
3:06pm: One year ago today i was laid off from MSA(Mistusbishi Silicon America) AKA Wafer World. perhaps i should go pee on the building or something...
7:56pm: This is the 30th entry using moveable type. which means ive been using it for just about a month now... 31 days cause i missed one a few weeks back when i went to sand lake...
This weekend im supposed to head off with the old man to go riding again. This time in florence rather than sand lake. We may be leaving tomrrow evening sometime... maybe not... not sure exactly... no matter. It will be a chance to take some more pictures and gather some thoughts/wits/feelings and escape everydaylife for at least a day and possibly friday evening....
Whoa already wednesday. So far so good at work nothing to out of the ordinary. The full moon is coming and things start to get wierd around there when this happens.
Still have prep work to do for next week. Should finish most of it up today, i hope. if not i have to get stuff ordered and or make do with out.
Slept pretty good just got woken up by something a couple times. I couldnt tell you what perhaps dreams.
I don't know how I'm gonna like picking up slack for Alex at work. We got rid of him (he was new guy). He was gonna be heading off to college in a few weeks and we would have to retrain someone anyways... and he screwed up a few times in the week and change he was with us... Showed up in swim trunks and wrinkly t-shirt yesterday day before that he showed up a half hour late from lunch. And possible other things. oh well... gonna have to just deal with it. Kathryn has been out sick all week so we are really short staffed.... oh well. as long as its not perimnate....
10:37am: Coming soon: Movie reviews by Kristina (spelling?), and Reflections of Earth by Sigh. I love givinging people a place to put what they have to say out there for others to see. I love seeing what others have to say. So if you know someone or are intrested in your own well um thing let me know and we can talk about it and see what we can do...
Crap! i forgot what i was gonna say... No matter.
Yesterday work wasnt so bad just a couple minor things like extra people in a class so i had to get another machine ready for him.
Hung out with Chris after i got home and worked on some stuff and broke a my keyboard so i got a new one. I kill about 1 keyboard per yer or so from what i can figure. The enter key wasnt feeling right so i poped it off and when i put it back on it still didnt work right so i poped it off and tried a again and did this about 3 times until a lil thingy on the enter key broke so i now have another new black keyboard. Gonna have to get used to typing on it but its the same type as i had before just not broken in yet. Chris got upgrades for his computer arnd I got a USB 2.0 Card for mine so now i can use my portable harddive more effectivly (transfer large files between Chris and I.)...
I got most of the design done for the new page that should be going live in the next week or so. I still got some things to work out like if its gonna be a group effort or a team effort or just a person... or do i set 2 of them up? I will worry about this after its ready and wating... input?
And dont be timmid about making coments here or here and even here. Comments good, we like.
I am out of things to blab about for now...
9:19am: The weather sucks. Im tired. Im bored. I'm not unhappy or pissed just tired and wishin i had somethin more todo. perhaps i be cutting out of work at 10?
la la la.
9:38am: um Cyndi just got rid of the new guy. He was only a temp and was gonna be leavin in a couple weeks anyways and she would just have to retrain someone and stuff... oh well..
2:31pm: Took a nap. I needed it. i think... but i just found out Fiona Apple is working on 3rd album. This will shut Chris up who has been askin me when is it comin out. The release date hasnt been set but it is in the works and has been for a few months. I can't wait.
Lets start by wishing Kala a great 1st day of school. And a good time with her beloved brother who will be visiting her for a while, arviving today.
Also. I belive I have found somone to write movie reviews. I just have to design the page and it up and work out some of the details. So look foward to new/more content and a new author/contributer. I know I do.
I bought UHF yesterday. Haven't watched it yet but I love that movie. Maybe today after work...
and 2 weeks of hellish work begins today. it could end up being just 1 week. it could end up being 3. How ever bad it is it is only temporary and I just work part time so suffering shouldnt last tooo long any givin day.
8:05am: seriously, where is everyone? its 8:05am and no one is here yet. Kathryn is usualy hear around 7:30. Im still the only one Neal stoped by and so did Barb... Oh Cyndi and Alex just came in, wait now I hear Melody. Whered they all come from? oh well.
found some more things i gotta do to the logs.. add links to the monthly archives. make a movie review page. and i plan on doing some CD reviews here sometime soon and i will be updating mt old reviews page when i do...
as for the movie reviews it seems we have 2 parties interested... 2 pages for reviews? or both post reviews to same page? or will their only be one reviewer? questions questions delmas delmas... oh well... I will get it figured out....
Anyways. I rented High Fidelity yesterday. Started to watch it yesterday and got through most of it but got a call to play Ultimate frisbee at bush park so I stoped the movie so I could come back to it and finish it after the game. This didnt quite work out. As i went over to Joe/Chris/Nicks place afterwords hung out had dinner etc. Then We decided to go up to portland around 7:30-8 but didnt leave until 9-9:30 cause Chris had work shit to attend to. So we get up their and meet Nikki, Abby, and Greg at Denny's sit around and talk and some eat but not me. Then we went to the house Nikki will be living once school starts. Andy, Cat and i think a girl named Liz already live there. So we got to see Cat and Andy as well and the house with people living there whereas the last time we saw it no one was living there yet. Got home from hanging out around 3 prolly a lil after... But I didn't get to finish the movie until thismorning. Really liked it a lot. Maybe watch it again just incase i missed something and cause well i stoped watching it for 12+ hours then picked back up near the end... maybe i will just rewatch a few chapters...
I also rented The Big Lebowski just cause its been a damn long time since I've seen that movie. I remember liking it so why not see it again....
Maybe today will be a lazy day.
Its saturday. I have but one thing on my aggenda today and that is IceCream... Maybe a movie or somethin later. Possibly clean my room. Maybe not.
google found Kala lastnight sometime and has begun to crawl it and index it. I imagine it will start showing up on google with in the week. Perhaps its time I start using robot tags so I can tell those bots to come back more often....
I think im gonna lay around here for a lil while caues i dont feel like getting up and taking a shower just yet or doing much of anything that evolvs leaving my bed.
3:48pm: Ben is a sappy bastard.
Weekend HO! This week has actualy gone by kinda fast. I like it. Im not looking foward to the next 2 weeks. full up on classes and im sure plenty of pety mundane crap for me todo such as coffee and printing signs and seting up computers... hopefuly they will go as quick as this week has. the only part of the next 2 weeks i look foward to is the 30th and that weekend. Wonder what the weekend may hold. Perhaps a game of ultimate tonight/ this evening well i heard talk of it from Nick. Maybe another quite weekend in. I am kinda thinkin bout goin up to Portland Simply Cause I haven't been in a while. Stay the night at Cats place... whoknows...
Got those damned computers for that damned SQL server class squared away. Showed them what was up this morning.
Took some pictures from the roof of work this morning. I'm still kinda timid about just walkin around up their and havin someone see and me getting in trouble for something. No matter I am sure its something I will get over in time.
oh just talked to my boss. I get to work monday nights from October 7th-December 9th from 7pm to 9pm... hehe that works out kinda funny. 10/7 to 12/9 7 to 9 heh.. hmm.. no biggie.. I hope
3:47pm: Got lunch with Cat after work... and I AM REALLY FUCKIN BORED! I'm not feeling very creative so no new pages or page work will prolly get done. Can't manage to fall asleep for a nap... Nothin to do. Chris is prolly workin on his car or house so thats no fun. Perhaps i will be using my new blockbuster card thisevning or going for a run or walk. I still need a funning buddy.. eh oh well... i think im gonna go stare at a wall or something.
4:40pm: Installed the speed step shit and stuff on my laptop so i should get batter batt time now.. . playin CS to combat the bordom...
Almost done with the week. One more day left, with no class to make coffee for. This week has gone by really fast and Ive even been stayin longer and i guess ive been kinda busy. I like it when there is little going on around here it lets me do my job as the computer tech, work on the computers in the labs and set them up for classes. But when classes come its usualy meet the Instructor then tell them about the setup and things normaly go smoothly from there on. So I am left with nothing todo after that usualy.
So much of my job is waiting. Right now I'm wating for a Windows 2000 Advanced Server install to install. Then I wait while it does its things and then I update it and patch it up and Install office 2000 and wait. Then I image it for Ghosting which also means more waiting. It just gives me more time to write here and do other stuff like read Slashdot and Wired and a few others... I love a having a cooshy job...
15 days til my 1st ride in a commercial airliner. I've technicaly flown before. My dads friend is a pilot and Ive gotten to go up with him before and fly a small lil 2 person plane for a few min. But its not like we actualy went anyplace or saw much of anything. But it was fun. In 15 days i get to walk into a plane rather than crawl in and just sit and maybe eat some peanuts. I'm kinda excited about it. I just have to figure out how to pack. I could pack 1 carry-on and have enough to last me the 3nights and 4ish days I will be gone. I could pack no carry-on and leave my laptop behind. I could pack a checked bag and a carry on and take everything i'd need plus some... I think i could get away without the laptop but not without my digital camera. I have 15 days to figure it out so im not too worried about it...
hmm... thinking about adding a rants catagory/page... eh too much work. and I dont have that much to rant about.. well i do its just id rather forget about it than let it anger/frustrate me... its usualy stupid crap anyways...
8:45pm: Work blew goats. I didnt get out til 2. A 7 hour day for me. Thats unheard of... Stupid class image fuckin up on me... oh well i got it worked out and will finish it up tomorrow and remind all those damn computers who their daddy is...
Saw Minortiy Report again today with Whitey after work. I really like it... Still and agin the 2nd time. Highly recommneded... I would have liked to seen something else but Chris can be a whiney lil punk and there wasnt anything else starting near the time that we were there... I would have liked to have seen Signs, Triple X or Gold member but he had seen the last 2 already and Signs didnt start for like another hour or more. No biggie maybe someother time for one of those other movies.
I dont feel like explaning the triple X thing... It doesnt look great to me but it on priciple...
I wish to be back inbed with at least another hour of sleep to go/left. something like 5 hours of sleep lastnight. I really gotta start reinforcing my bed time. But I do oh so much love stayin up late.
Have been getting a few e-mails from someone who has been lookin at my site I know thatI know her, I have a couple ideas as to who she is. Nothing soild other than a few conicdences that all make compleate sence to me. Access logs and a good memmory are your friend.
I watched Orange County Last night. Really liked it. I have a bunch of other movies I have been meaning to see some for nearly a year now. Some prolly even longer. I've also heard Signs is a great movie if i had someone to Catch it with, cause god know it sucks to go to a movie alone, I would but Cat is off to portland this afternoon to see about transfering to another bank. Lagmaster Whitey has grandparents intown and has to spend some time with them and his regualr family.
Also hung out with Cat for a few hours yesterday and watched Orange County with her and cashed in on a back massage shes owed me for sometime now. Damn did i need it. I prolly still need more work but hell thats ok im better off than I was. Had a good time with her. But I'm glad shes going to talk to the people abotu transfering today cause her boss is a bitch. Cat showed up at my place Cring cause of her yesterday. I have heard other bank tellers at this particualr bank speak of said boss. But what goes around will come around. Stupid fat ugly bitchy people its one thing to be fat and jolly, but fat and bitchy no one likes you and you wonderwhy. I'm just not even gonna start.
Today will most likley be another day spent in my slightly cooler basement room. It broke 100 yesterday. Perfect weather to just find a nice cool place and stay. Today sounds like its supposed to be damn hot too.
Tomorrow Chris and I spoke of possibly going to northfork. I want to go swimming cause I havent been all summer. In fact ive only been near water a couple times this summer both of which were at the Beach. I guess i could count jumping in the ocean only to rush out and grab my wallet of the top of the water as it flew out of my pocket as I flew into the water. But a quick dunk in the ocean hardly counts in my book. Anyone interested in going with us? Im sure we'd love the company. Billy Jean? that is if you are who i think you are.
I need someting phyiscal todo ive been having the urge to go for a good run the last few days. Perhaps this is something leftover from HS when cross-country practice would start before the school year. Maybe its not. The reason I havent gone out running is well its been too damned hot, not to mention running is often better with a partner. Anyone? running buddy? Anyone? If interested lemme know.
Oh and at work I dont really have to do much other than setup for classes coming up next week and the next so i have lots of time on my hands cause much of it is spent waiting for the computers to do something. Install software, Reboot, Ghost, etc..... No classes today so no coffee to be made. YAY! But its a Salm before the storm. Have a full week long class next week. Then monday another full week long class starts. I think i will have to come in on saturday or friday evening of next week to prep for the next class... No biggie just more hours on the ol time card....
I think I may actually go work now. (DAMN THIS IS A LONG ENTRY) if you get this far you get um... 1,000 Benpoints*
* Benpoints have not cash value, may or may not be rediemed this is entriely up to Ben and if he Likes you or not and if knows you and the type or request. Please allow 12Hours to 36months for delivery of product, offer expires, no purchase nessary, do not use in shower or while sleeping.
On hold to IBM. Waiting to hear back about how much it would cost to get hold of a program and a few licences for it. My guess is about a millions dollars.... well what ever it would be its nothing i my self would ever be able to afford or want/need. I dont think anyone would NEED this. There are plenty of ways of doing web/java/e-commerce development that dont cost arms and legs. But the state has arms and legs to pay appaerntly. Some Jazzy hold music... AND THE COST IS! (drum roll): $80,000?!?! maybe just 8,000 but its damn high eather way. I think i need to find more information....
8:38am:ooh found something fun and new todo.. maybe. i think Kala would enjoy it. i will post links later. once i get all things nessary and start it...
I have to install win2k server for a upcoming class. The copy the instructor has provided sucks. i had do download a 300ish Meg zip file and burn contents to a cd. Its not bootable so i have to use a *shudder* floppy disk. and reburn the cd now cause well something isnt right with it... fuckers.... oh well im on the clock...
12:22pm: Music. Damn i love it. I love coming home and not having anyone around so i can just put something on loud with out offending anyone.... Music is a relgious experince for me.
Slept pretty good. Went to bed pretty ealry and slept good. Can't rember any dreams right now but it was a peaceful sleep.
Time for a new week. New challenges to come new things to learn.
ya lets see how long this attiude lasts... id love for it to last more than a couple hours and i get to work and realize how boring and crapy my tasks are.... oh well.
9:30am: I forgot to mention i played some counter strike for the 1st time since um January, last night. I didnt do too badly. I got stuck as VIP 1st 2 rounds and kept having to kill people cause my team wasnt doing a very good job... But i think i still have it. I may be a lil rusty but its all good. Maybe ill play some more when i get home. Or just wait til the next LAN party.... I forgot how much of a rush you can get from that game.
Tomorrow is monday. The day we start over again. A new week. A fresh start. A reset, reboot. Even if the week was perfectly fine you must start again. Even if your weekend didnt seem long enough you must end it and start a new week.
Kinda sucks but nessary after a bad/long/hard week.
So enjoy your Sunday evening. Enjoy your sleep and dreams tonight.
Its been a nice mellow weekend. I think I have found the bracelet I am gonna get for Kala. I just have to wait to hear back from the company on cost etc.. That will prolly happen tomorrow. They dont have online shoping so it makes things well inconvinent to order form them. Only a minor inconvince in the grand scheme of things. It will be well worth it.
Havent done much today. Played with some images. Took some new pics. Talked to Kala. Just a nice relaxing hohum Sunday.
7:45pm: Greg the bunny... is some funny funny shit. Its barely a family show. So many enuendos damn its a fun show.
My task for the day is to find a bracelet similar to this one. I looked for like 2 hours for something like it online and found nothing. If you can find it let me know where you found it and you will be awwarded 2million Benpoints* Ben i think i have a couple ideas of where to find what im looking for. But nothing solid. If you have ideas please e-mail me or IM me...
Slept pretty good. nice and sound. and got to sleep lots went to bed at 1ish and getting up at 9:30ish so thats like 8 and a half hours sleep. Dont remember anydreams but thats ok.. maybe tonight.
Time to go shower and stuff...
1:37pm: I have yet to locate a suitable bracelet I looked at all sorts of places. I will just have to look more and expand my search to other cities such as portland and eugene. I will find one damn it. oh yes i will.
on another note. I recived a great compliment yesterday.
From my friend Mina in portland. "you should think about doing that for a living" refering to my pictures... i somehow doubt i could make a living but its still a great compliment...
3:55pm: i remembered a dream i had last night. I beat the crap out of a bear, a big fucker... wasnt gonna let him mess with me or the party i was with...

up late again last night. sorta. i was in and out of sleep for a while and got another call from Collyn. Then talked to Kala for a short while before we both went off to bed. She was rather distrought at the fact that the star I gave her before she. I knew she liked it, but had no idea how much but I've been finding I have underestimated a few things. I have been plesently surpised a few times now because of it.
Friday!!!
YAY!!!
7:41am: Its not so bad stayin up a lil too late. I get just enough sleep, usualy. My wits are not fully with me until its nearly time to leave work. Kinda reminds me of High School. Stayin up too late with shit todo the next day but not caring too much cause its all so routine anyways and your having more fun staying up than you would be sleeping.
I didnt sleep soo great last night. I had a couple of funky dreams once i got to sleep. I will prolly sleep much better tonight simply because I can sleep in tomorrow. Chris is leavin to go intertubing with mike and taylor sometime today so from the sounds of things i will be alone for the most part. So some time to relax, work on pages, graphics, etc... not sit at his place watching TV while he works on the house. but i wont start in on that. I just hope he has a good time and the best of luck with Josie (tylors sister)... he apperntly has a crush on her or somethin...
3:54pm: Work SUCKED!!! did bitch data entry for like 2 hours staight and there will be more waiting when i get back monday... But i went to the coffee house cafe got my self a Rasberry Itailin Soda then went to water front and sat around for a lil while. Then bought a Shiney new pen. Then sat at a nother park thingy for a lil while. Then to Straight From New Yourk Pizza and had 2 pieces of Peperoni and a Jones Cream Soda then came home. I also a few pics while i was doing what i was doing...

To roll my self out of bed (already did it once this morning)
Find clothes. Find food. Check e-mail, maybe read a website or 2.
Then off to work. Then off to lunch with work people.
...And then?... I dunno maybe coffee
...And then?... I dunno maybe take some pictures
...And then?... basicly i have no idea. no more and then.
Slept good.
Another short night.
I managed to get offline at midnightish. then got a phone call, nearly as soon as i closed the lid to my laptop and put my head on my pillow, from "We aren't drunk" Collyn and company. I didn't mind at all. It was quite funny. Its also nice to talk to Collyn and see whats going on. And it was especialy funny last night.
Stayed up kinda late talkin to a couple people online. Then awoke later to talk to Kala for a while longer. So sleep was short. Work has been long the last few days extreamly busy for a while then nothing then busy. Today maybe another long day. It seems like we should be beyond Wednesday, Thursday or Friday would be nice.
I saw Lord of The Rings for the 1st time yesterday. I liked it. Powerful story, ciemtography was great, the linux rendering farm did a great job with the FX, I liked it but didnt love it. Perhaps its just to beyond my grasp of reality, too unreal? I don't know exactly my self but i did like it. I still entertain the thought of reading it just to see if it makes a diffrence. I will even say its a great movie. A couple points really had me...
I've updated the page as promised. Links added as well as a new page. The new page is as of yet blank but this will change within the week. let me know what you think. i know the 3 of you who read these so let me know, damnit. I still have to finish the new people page for over at Junknstuff.net but hey thats ok its mostly done its just a matter of fixing the pics for it and moving the captions for them to the new page.
3:18pm: Tired sleep doesnt seem to come. It will tonight. Have another birthday lunch for work tomorrow. not exactly looking foward to it but oh well.
work was long but tollerabale. Thanks to a certain someone keeping me company and helping to pass the intollerable bordem that can be work...
perhaps the tiredness is being brought on by the awakenings that have been occuring for a while now.... perhaps more about that later... maybe you will just have to ask or wait and see....
I named my camera today. Cammie is her name. I belive she is a she because simply if you don't take your time and push the right buttons turn the right knobs the result will not be what what was desired.
bah lots of crap to deal with at work today. Gotta make a few call backs about that video confrence thingy. And getting classes together/worked out not to mention I had to make about 10pots of coffee/hot water. too much like a monday... too much like yesterday... ug
Went to Wilsonvile with Chris yesterday while he took his A+ hardware test I looked at CDs at Fry's and nearly bought 5 or 6 new ones but picked 2.
worked on a couple pages yesterday. Watched part of Her Magisteys Secret Service but its the worst Bond Flick ever! I watched for about an hour and he didnt kick one bit of ass. That guy was the worse Bond ever. George Lazeby er whatever.
I also gotta stop by blockbuster Video on my way home so i can rent LOTR... Its sort of a homework assignment from Kala. I hope she doesnt make me write a paper on it or anything. I briefly thought about reading the book but it was only a brief though.
10:36pm: Saw the movie. nearly finshed a page. need to add to this page. links and updates and more thoughts later. sleep now.
Its monday. Time to go back to work... I miss my long weekends of the wafer world days and my large paychecks as well.
Slept suprizingly well considering it hurts to move too much but i guess its when it hurts to not move (like my shoulder was a few daya ago) that it really makes it hard to sleep.
Pictures from Sand lake are up. Just head to incoming then to Sandlake August 2002... I'm faily pleased with this batch of pics. I can't wait til my next adventure to anyplace to take more. I really need to stop and take my time with the pictures though. I took more time this trip than i usualy do and i think it shows. Also I should keep my camera more ready and not hesitate to take pictures as i often do.
8:09pm: What a beautful search string."woke up this morning something on my mind didnt sleep at all last night just trying to pass time sorry i have to go and i dont even i should have known that it would be this way the next day" was seareched yahoo sometime yesterday and they found me. I hope they were not to disapointed.
Just got back from Sand Lake where i rode 4 wheelers for the 1st time in my life. I dont know if im sore from riding, or sleeping on the ground, maybe the combination of the two is whats making it painful to move.
Had a good time. Took some pics will post those a soon as I get off my ass and hook my camera up to get the pics. but this could be days away, maybe moments.
Maybe i will get dressed sometime too... havent put more than boxers on after my 1st shower since friday....
My shoulder is not happy. A dull ache all day and night from it. Lost a few hours of sleep because of it. Its worse when im not moving and tring to sleep... So the much needed nap when I get home may be more difficult than expected. And I still have to pack for camping/4wheeling adventure this weekend. No biggie i pack fast and usualy pretty light... Got my camera charging hopefuly some good pics will come from the trip. Perhaps pack my laptop up as well to view the pics or work on pages or just write. So tired. And i should have slept great had it not been for the shoulder thing. I played ultimate frisbee for a couple hours last night. Did pretty good.
time to go home yet? nap time? please...
I think today at work will be a busy one. I'd be totaly ok with it if i was technical stuff busy as is my job, but i will be making and returning phone calls about various crap today. Stuff about a stupid video confrence, upgrades to the labs, and im sure other various misc tasks that I can do until around 9am when I will start making the call backs and what not.
I also gotta stop by Chemeketa some time soon so i can get direct deposit setup.
Pack for tomorrow. going to Sand lake with my Dad and Sister and more, I dont know who else excactly but hey thats ok.
I can't wait to be finished for the day.
I can't wait to be finished for the week.
I've will have only worked 4 days and the most hours i normaly work is 5 but i get a lot done in that time and much of it i shouldnt even be resposible for. (setting up a video confrence for example...) one more day left of work for the week after this one.
29 days left (not counting today) until my 1st plane ride to see my love. By the by who has started posting... I will put a perminate link up someplae soon.
11:09am: I realized i need to do some personal and spritual type groth here. some learning. I feel i know my self quite well and am quite comfortable with my self. I just feel as if i need to experince new things and learn new things. It maybe as simple as reading a few good books. I need to do something for my self byond a purchcase or creative outlet (my pages, photogrpahy, writings, rants etc..) to learn something new and grow and later use my knew knowledge with my creative outlets.
So I turn to you world, guide me. Send sugestions, comments, ideas, thoughts, knowlegde. I need to expand my horizions but need help streching them. I wish to become better rounded and educated in all things help me find a place to start. A book, a class, a webpage, a idea anything to get this rock rolling. I wish to learn but what to learn I do not know. Possibly a form of expression, dance maybe music, a new way of thinking, greater knowledge of something nearly anything. Its time for me to grow again. To learn. To better myself.
