So I had a day off yesterday. I actually did something vaguely interesting with it, too. Holy shit. tongue

Star Wars: Good but not great. Vast improvement over the first two prequels, though.

Kingdom of Heaven: Excellent. Same stuff that made Gladiator great, but different enough that it's not just "Gladiator 2" or something.

Getting bored and walking to Rockville and back within 8 hours (slightly...

Been a while. How are all of you crazy people in SG land?

I actually felt kind of alive today. I spent most of yesterday sleeping, since it's the first day off I've had in a couple weeks. It was so weird... I had no idea what to do with myself since I didn't have to go to work. S'all good though. I like the...

Aaaagh! So dead/stressed!

So this Ranger Surplus job situation did not turn out favorably for me. I got the job, but it's definitely only part time until I'm done getting trained, and then I'm only going to get a full time position 1) if business warrants one becoming available, and 2) if the manager thinks I deserve it.

This sucks because I was trying to...

Yay! for finally breaking in these boots. They are super-comfy-like now. biggrin

Driving is scary/fun. I'm finally getting around to learning the actual process of driving. Took the classes last year, but couldn't schedule in-cars till now because the people on the phone are stupid. It's kind of a bad thing to do right when you start, I suppose, but I had my first experience driving...

after many years of work, the simple pleasure of properly worn in docs is a reward i dont take for granted.
driving is good. driving means youre in control. control, really being in control, rarely occurs in life.

Breaking in Doc Martens is a bitch. Taking a break from wearing them to nurse the huge blister on the back of my ankle.

Also: Duct tape was always known to be ridiculously useful, but that truth has recently been expanded in my knowledge to include several medical purposes. Nifty.

Muahaha! I am ARMED! The steel toe boots have arrived! *excitement*

So, what's the first thing I did with them besides for the obligatory new shoe tests and such? Fiegn kicking Julio in the shin. He thought I was about to kick him in the nuts... he made the most amusing face, too. He actually SQUEEKED, mouthed "ooooh!", his eyes bugged out and he jumped...

Haha... random event of the day:

Mark (a co-worker) was telling me something about how you could beat someone to death with a dildo in GTA San Andreas. Dan (one of the managers) walks by, I tell him that there's a plot to murder him via beating with a dildo afoot... mostly because I was bored. He goes completely dead serious on me for a...

So I was walking home last night and I started thinking about how passing cars kinda sound like waves. Then I realized that I could only hear the cars because I had forgotten to get out my mp3 player when I started walking. After that I couldn't hear shit besides for various Offspring songs. Man... it's kinda sad... the Offspring were pretty good before that...

Note to anyone who could use this information: when trying to cut something with a knife, if you're going to use your free hand to put pressure on the top of the blade (unsharpened side), either wipe the sweat off of your hands or be more careful than I was. My hand slipped and I accidentally raked my palm against the tip of the blade....

Ouch! Hope your hand gets better. Reminds me of using an x-acto blade in graphic design... flesh wounds abound.

this chick i knew worked at outback. she was on lots of speed. her thumb was fucked. when i was grooming dogs i frequently nipped myself with the scissors.
anyway... i frequently locate myself directly outside of pits. getting hit has never been a problem, except for the time i lost my glasses...
so, video game based movies? house of the dead. succeeded at simultaneously being the best and worst movie ever.

Wow... it's odd when you feel foreign not more than 10 minutes away from your own house...

So I was walking home from work and a couple guys were walking behind me. Didn't pay it much mind until I was trying to cross one of the Beltway on-ramps and one of them started talking to me in Spanish trying to ask me something about Langley...

Okay. WTF.

So I'm lazy and I don't like waiting for/sitting on/etc.. a bus for hours just to go shopping for basic things like plain t-shirts and underwear, so I go to Amazon and search for boxers. It took me HALF AN HOUR of searching through the results to find plain black boxers for under $15 or so a pair. I repeat for emphasis. PLAIN....

Wow... my friends are retarded sometimes. It was decided earlier this evening that I have "flubs of steel", as opposed to abs of steel. Don't ask. Even I don't know. As far as I could figure, they got into a discussion about tummies while I was out of the room and when I came back my midsection was unexpectedly examined and that was declared. Although...

I am learning that the lives of college students are pretty ridiculous and center on such frivilous things as alcohol and parties and getting laid.
