I don't. I tried to watch 'DXD High School' once, but it was a bit too silly, and there were no sword fights.
I also tried to watch 'Record of Lodoss War', which I liked more, since there were sword fights; on the minus side, no saucy nuns showing their underpants.
I loved the ending song to that series.

Anyway met up with Tequilia Sunrise, got to see him and Ms Sunrise as well as his sister, had a nice lunch and yak together and he got to see my family. They're cool guys. And yes Freehold, I know you'll be disappointed, but we all had pizza and went home sober.
We also suggested some new vacation locations to him and if he comes over, we'll be glad to show him around =)

I am so very happy you met and hung out.

I gained Points by reading 'Corum' by Michael Moorcock to ALL (DE) last night - she liked it, and it helped her go to sleep. Now I need to work out where to get a scarlet robe from, as well as a silver helmet, byrnie, battleaxe, etc...
Would you give an eye and a hand for that outfit?

There are some drunks in my lobby. One of them is talking in that tone which tells you that they believe that they are being eloquent and speaking profoundly. But, in reality, he's just saying "The thing is. The thing. The the thing. Look, the thing about that is. That's the thing."
He's been going for almost 5 minutes already and hasn't actually said a damned thing.

They aren't causing trouble. Just really annoying me. Although they seem to have run out of beer, so maybe they'll stumble off to bed soon and leave me alone.

We've been having issues with our fire alarm panel for about 6 weeks. They finally called someone in to look at it the other day. The verdict? The UPS batteries are shot (and apparently he couldn't replace them) and we are using 40 watt light bulbs in the rooms that are acting up when we should be using 30 watt bulbs. Not really sure how that's an issue since I know from previous experience that the fire/smoke detectors are on different circuits from the lights, but apparently that's the verdict. Now I'm left wondering how long it will take for the management to have someone go through and swap out all the bulbs. My money is on at least 2 weeks.

The thing that sucked this morning is our breakfast lady didn't show and I couldn't get a hold of any management till 7 so I had to handle both jobs for about 2 hours. then I ended up staying an extra hour as well.
If someone doesn't show up this morning I will start a war.
Our breakfast person doesn't come in until 7 anyways, so I always have to do both for an hour. (Breakfast doesn't start until 6, and I leave at theoretical 7).

My 2nd night at this job ever the fire alarm system was malfunctioning so it went off randomly. This really sucked at 2 in the morning.
The alarm hasn't been going off. That might have actually gotten it fixed sooner. The control just has a bunch of alarm and trouble lights on it, which causes the automatic check to fail every morning, meaning the monitoring center calls to tell us. It's mainly an annoyance, but if the fire department came through to do a surprise inspection we could potentially be fined or even shut down.

Ours comes in at 5 to start cooking everything normally. (you must just have the continental breakfast then eh?)
They like to call it an "expanded continental" because we have scrambled eggs, omelettes, sausage, and such. But none of it is cooked to order. In fact, none of it is really cooked here. It's all pre-cooked and frozen, then heated in the microwave.

At game the other day I got one of the other players to break down laughing twice using two similar jokes. The best part is that each time, I told him the joke and he gave the little "Huh" pity laugh. Then I could see him start to think about it and after about 30 seconds break down laughing. The two jokes:
How do you make a squid laugh? Easy. Just give it ten tickles.
and
I got fired from a factory that made Tickle-Me-Elmos. They found out that before any of the toys left, I gave them each two test tickles.

Oh yeah. I haven't had that situation past like spilled coffee which yes then I clean it up. I don't think they should let small children use our waffle makers by themselves anyways. There pretty dangerous I feel. Way too easy to burn yourself.
Sure, but how often do you see parents letting their kids do stuff they shouldn't? Because I see it a lot.

We don't get as many kids its mostly businessmen and old people. I haven't heard about any reports about 3rd degree burns so I don't think we have had a kid fool with the waffle makers yet.
