So yesterday, I think, may have been my most revoltingly productive day in the last 4 years. Here's what I accomplished:
1) I woke up
2) Finished updating the website
3) Walked to the bank and got a car loan
4) Went to the Cingular place and got my wireless plan changed
5) Went to the dealership test-drove the car
6) Went to the mall...

Thanks, sugar! I love it.

It's so funny when you're in a bad mood and you write a journal entry about what a bad mood you're in, and then you look back on it a few days later and go "Wow, what was I in such a bad mood about??".
Oh wait, did I say funny? No, that's not right. What was it? Oh, right: Lame.
Heh

I'm glad you're in a better mood

Hahah! You got so excited about Katamari that you triple posted in my journal 
Today is a good day for hating humanity.
A "Colossal Disgust for my Fellow Man" kind of day.
Could just be that I'm working too much. Makes me cranky, having to work 12 hour shifts on no sleep, getting myself twisted to the eyeballs on energy drinks that leave me twitchy and dehydrated.
Probably it also has something to do with my increasingly frequent reminders...

You're not a bad person. Children really are obnoxious. Especially children in restaurants. As long as you don't eat them or something, I think you're pretty moraly sound.
Oh, I just read that one of your vices is cannabalism. Shit. I'm sorry, man. You're going to hell. Might as well play some Katamari to get your mind off your impending doom.

I need to buy another car, and god dammit, it's killing me. You'd think that with the numbing density of dealerships and used car lots around here you'd be able to find a good car for a decent price. And, oh my god, you would be oh so horrifyingly wrong. Every place has the same shit, for the same prices. All of them. It seems...

Come on, brain!
You can do better than this!
In case you were wondering, writing a novel off the top of your head is hard.
But at least I have the ending. Check this out:
Blake pulled the terrified man behind him for as long as he could, finally dropping him with a meaty thud onto the concrete of the floor of the bioweapons lab....

Yeah, those guys are rather pesky.
How goes it, fellow engineer? I trust the processor realm is treating you well?
side-note: I may be much more available for comment after this weekend... getting broadband back will work wonders for my communication on the internets.

Yeah, I used to program in VB.NET, and then I discovered C#... There is no going back!
Well, maybe for the occasional spat of CoCo 3 programming. Or GBA ROM development. Here's my idea:
- Just got a GBA SP
- Just ordered the flash memory dev kit / linker
- Going to program the greatest homebrew ROM of all time: HOBO-STAB 2000
The entire game: you stab hobos. They are the hippy-lookin' guys from Metal Slug, but with modified sprites. The game, right before you face a fearsome hobo, changes the fight perspective... Either first-person (ala Punchout), third-person (ala side-scroller Gunstar Heroes), RPG (w/ active battle time system), or 1-on-1 fight (ala Street Fighter series).
Best. Game. Evar.
(disclaimer: I have nothing against hobos, really, but the temptation of hobo-stab almost makes me want to pee myself)

Once again all my robots were broken so I had to wait for the vendor-provided technicians to fix the tools before I could get back to processing silicon. This had been happening a lot, but it didn't bother me because I was still pretty new to the bay, and so a break from the stress and confusion of learning a new high-pressure job was welcome....

Running myself ragged.
Totally fucking ragged, yeah I'd say working 75 hours in 6 days would make a normal person into a zombie pretty well, wouldn't you?
6 days in that god damn cleanroom.
And now 2 days off, and then I go back. Next week is going to be lighter. 36 hours in 3 days, or maybe 50 in 4 if I decide to...

Yikes. 's prolly gonna take me another year before D2 status @ my engineering practice...
YO! WTFBBQOMG is UP!
Like the new handle... very disasterously magnetic.
To explain my absence: Needed complete quarintine from one of the SG's for a bit... looooooong story that no one wants to hear. But, now she's off ze' radar, and I've gotten my emotional shit together enough to at least finish out an active profile in this site.
Anyway: might I suggest 'Evil Dead: Regeneration' as a good complete waste of time... rent, don't buy. Currently the best representation of Ash-tasticness in video game form.
Don't kill yourself over promotion, and have a good one mang.

I used to be better at this god dammit!
Okay, get a grip. I can make it. I mean, I'm going to fucking HAVE TO in 2 days, and when the time comes, it's going to be the real thing.
Let me back up here, and I'll tell you a bit about what's going on.
As I type this I'm trying my hardest to stay...

You use the word "defenestrated" in your profile!

Of course! It's my favorite word in the entire English language, and it's so rarely used that I get super excited when I see it.

Firstly: My girlfriend's car exploded today. That's a bit of an exaggeration, but not much. Apparently the oil pump decided that it couldn't bear the thought of another day chugging along taking us to our jobs and making our lives slightly more convenient.

Shit dude, be careful when you get to new york. These fuckers are in rare form this year.

It's mostly just the driving. I've nearly had so many accidents this year because of people just doing whatever the fuck they feel like.
The traffic is worse than ever too.

I can't think of anything particularly clever today, so I'll just share with you a passage from Deadeye Dick by Kurt Vonnegut. The main character is talking about his mother at one point and says:
It turned out she had a traumatic experience with termites in childhood, which she had never mentioned to me. She had suppressed the memory all those years, but now she...

hmmm, interesting point on the evolution by generations. ddint think of that. it almost steps into scary "genetic memory" areas, or maybe the source of the infection just gets more refined as it goes? As for Shaun of the Dead? I loved it. Just imagine, SH, the Zombies attack, besides Steve adn Lars house where do we go? You know one of them would vote for Buckleys. Search your feelings.
