Owie.

My back is sore...

I am not saying I am out of shape... That would imply that I was in shape in the past...

My own recommendation, if you're serious about a tech field job, is maybe look into drafting/design work. If I recall correctly, you've done lots of construction work. A little delving into computer drafting (for civil engineering type jobs) might be just the thing for you.
I also did well in my Drafting and Mechanical Drawing classes in High School. If I wasn't more interested in programming, I'd be doing that, instead.

I looked into that. It's... a rapidly shrinking field.

Well,...
Only 35 minutes until my birthday! :)

I plan on eating too much, and drinking too much.

Not necessarily in that order,... ;P

Blast from my past:

Ex-Mother in law: "WHEN are you going to grow up and get out of your second childhood?!?!"

Me: "Um,... I'm not done with my first one yet." ;D

Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday, Ragadolf!

I learned this week that I am a terrible wingman. My friend even tried sending me out of the room for a bit, and that didn't stop me from sending him embarrassing text messages while he was trying to chat up the waiter.

I've heard about people buying all sorts of things when they're drunk. Me? I ordered two pounds of Maine sea scallops.

My scallops arrived the other day and they are glorious.

so so. Didn't get the job I interviewed for. I mourned for a couple of days but now I am back and ready to get myself out there again.

Happy birthday! I forgot that we are fellow Aquiariuseseseses. It explains a lot.

Treeforters. I have 5 slots open in 3 different PbP games. A link to my Recruitment is in my profile if anyone is interested.


Thank you birthday well-wishers!

My family and I went to Rodizio Grill today for lunch (And breakfast and dinner. We are full)

They were having a 'Game day Special' that made it a teensy closer to affordable, but not by much. ;)

Still, we sat there for about an hour and a half, eating grilled meats served from a skewer (looked like a sword, I was happy) directly onto our plates, while talking and having a good family-together-time that we don't get often.

It was great!

And tonight there will be chicken wings, and cider, and superbowl commercials! It is a good birthday!

:D

Kinda funny how things don't slow down here on Sportsball Day.

Or maybe it's not.

I am recording it to watch later. I despise commercials and can watch a football game in like an hour with DVR :-)

I'm actually watching for the commercials (and hoping that at least one will inspire nightmare monsters), and I'll kinda pay attention to the game while working on something else.

I want to buy you a drink. Let's make it happen.

I used some of my scallops to make a New England-style scallop chowder. It was absolutely delicious.


The only reason that I watch the Superbowl is for the commercials.
Honestly.
:)

I am SO full from today,... my doctor is gonna kill me.

But at least I'll die happy! :)

Currently watching episodes of the old Justice League animated series of Netflix. Whenever laser blasts or similar appear on screen, the closed captioning, without fail, reads either [pew] or [pew pew pew]. Well done, Netflix.

*Except for Superman's heat/laser vision, which is rendered as [zapping].


I've clearly been missing out on the world of closed captioning.

Why can we only edit for an hour? My stream of consciousness keeps screwing up grammar. I see the mistakes now, and it's making me nuts.

What do you mean only edit for an hour?

I see a bunch of errors in my pbp posts, but the posts are locked after an hour and can no longer be edited.

Heh,

On the newer 'Ultimate Spider Man' cartoons, one of the episodes (NOT in Closed Captioning, I don't ever turn that on, but I might start now) :)

Anyway, One of the episodes Spiderman went up against some Hydra goons or somesuch, and they shot at him with laser guns. His response, "Pew Pew Guns! I miss the Pew Pew guns!"
;)
