No deep puddles here. Just getting some of it out.
I haven't gotten a chance to relax this holiday. I've been high strung pretty much the entire time....except for the last week during exams...which was the most relaxed I've been all december. Hot Topic is extremely high-energy..especially when I'm out on the floor selling. I've got so many priorities and so many responsibilities as a sales associate.. it's not even funny. I can't go into it or whatever, but most of the time I feel like a chicken with her head cut off! Help this! fix that! straighten those! fold these! hey can you get me this? I need a dressing room! -- on top of not being able to leave my area.
anyway, enough about that. I'll be glad when the 30th is over with. That's my last day..the end of the seasonal hiring time.
I haven't really felt much in the spirit of Christmas so far this year. It makes me sad. :( I know its because of work, too that I don't realize how quickly the month is going :( I kept wondering why my parents were asking repeatedly when I'd be up next. Its hard to imagine Christmas being on Thursday.
My entire life right now revolves around when I have to be at work the next day. I hate it.
I finally got in some rollerblading time the past 3 days. Since I was at home today I didn't get to make it down to the Riverwalk. I checked the weather though, and it looks like it will be clear most of the time this week. :)
Cool pic time!
Visited chattanooga.gov and got a response. Sent in a request for someone to fix the flag over veteran's bridge. Its a nice thing to have for our city.
I hate it when I hate the smell of someone. It drives me bonkers just sitting beside them. sometimes makes me want to gag.
I also hate it when someone is so arrogant or self centered...that they just end up making an ass out of themselves. I guess we are all guilty of it at times...but I was surprised totally by this person acting that way. Wasn't expecting such a side of them at all! They had always been so courteous and helpful, that to see him make a jackass out of himself is disconcerting.
He did something today though that was totally out of character for him. It made me want to think and look a little deeper...but then my lack of interest in the subject kind of deadened that direction.
A girl can only take so much.... of anything.
Saw Mona Lisa Smile. Was a really great movie.
I was really tired today, almost didnt want to make it to the Christmas party at Cyl. I felt like I was on drugs or something when I was driving down from Cleveland to Chatty. Ugh. After I had a coffee from StoneCup I woke up and felt better.
I hate being addicted to coffee.
I hate being addicted to anything for that matter. I've been around the block with that, and let me tell you, it's not worth it, and I don't miss it.
Not one bit.
blahdeblahblah.
I hate it when I meet up with people and don't freakin remember their names.
I went to a LAN up in cleve last night and !#%^!#^#% I got to see a friend of mine that I hadn't seen in a long time!!!! It rocked :D Actually, I got to see basically all my oldschool highschool friends from back in the day.
They were the ones that originally came to the LAN's that I threw after it got past the mIRC channel peeps.
I'd love to have a new years party at the Laundromat.
Thinking about asking my friends that if I clean up their house if we could party there.
Not that I don't think they'd let us party there without cleaning up...but that it's just so filthy I can't much stand to be around it that long.
90% of it is trash that needs to be thrown away.
I actually had a crazy thought of moving in with those poor bastards and cleaning up after them. The commute from Cleve to chattanooga everyday would be too much hell to pay though. That's why I'm not living at home right now.
I was driving down King? street I think. it was tonight at 4 am. These are my hidden treasures of the night ;)))))
I love how the bottom of it doesn't touch the ground. It's what first caught my eye!
The lighting was an additional plus :))
I need a miniature tripod for my camera. So many of the photos I took were blurry.
These were basically handheld.
meh!
I'm finding myself really getting into cars lately.
I picked up a calendar called "dream cars" at hobby lobby today :) A Saleen is *damn* sexy.
Desolate got a model car for christmas from a friend..and I was simply amazed by all the detail it went into it if you were building it.
It would be a really great way to learn more about cars...and god if I had the time I would love to do that myself!!
I took an auto essentials class when I was in high school. I was the only girl in that class, too. I can change a tire, jump start a battery, change my oil, change the thermostat, change the serpentine belt...
uhh some other things too. I kept my notebook so I still have all my notes.
I remember the year I took it we were being tested to get the class ASE certified.
ASE kicks ass. They're furreal, dawg.
Speaking of changing a tire, I have a funny story about that.
I blew a tire after I hit a curb not too far from my house in Cleve. After having that class, I don't feel quite so helpless..and even though my Dad came out to help me, I was literally jumping up and down on the tire iron wearing strappy heeled shoes trying to get the damn lugnut that some moron had tightened too much.
My dad's funny when it comes to things like that. He gets really huffy and piss0rd at the thing hes gotta work on.
Hes a great dad though.
Today I got to see the new light and new doorbell he installed outside on the back porch. :)
The doorbell testing stressed me out, though.
It's quite a stressful noise if you think about it....
so much anticipation!!!!
This is the second night I've stayed up till 5 am.
I *hate* getting my nights and days mixxed up.
I should have gone to bed much earlier :\
I want an XBOX for christmas. Equipped with soul calibur II.
I won't get it, because I didn't ask for it....but that is for the best, I'm sure.
I wouldn't ever get sleep or do my homework if I had one of those.
damn.
;)
I want a Gamecube with Mario Kart: Double Dash
Posted by: JosiahQ at December 21, 2003 07:58 AMThe gamecube is cheaper and it's version of SC2 has Link. How can you go wrong with Link? Besides, the gamecube also has the wavebird controller, which is infinitely better than any other wireless pad out there.
Also, you could have called 311 and left a message about the flag, but I guess as long as it's getting fixed than it's fine.
Posted by: himitsu at December 21, 2003 10:25 AMI haven't played soul calibur II on gamecube yet.
After comparing PS2 and XBOX, it seemed like the XBOX loaded the levels faster and had smoother gameplay. I'll have to look into it, cause I'll probably buy a system after I've paid off all the bills for this month :)
Link=teh shiznit
how does he compare w/my grrl Talim?
Spawn? I don't like Spawn's character in the game, it seems way out of place. Link seems to fit in their fantasy world better.
Talim is by far my fav. character. I don't know. Sometime between Clev. and Chat. stop and see if Best Buy has SC2 on the GC or Xbox. I think they have some dinky racing game for the Xbox and MK:DD on the GC right now.
Xbox and GC have zilch load time compared to the PS2, always.
Xbox, however, is heavier, takes a LOT more space, and ... sorry, got distracted. ran out of candy. :( Cube has more FUN games on it. All of the Mario games (yes, including double dash) are great wastes of funfun time. The Zelda game is also great fun. Iono. I've wasted more time on the cube than the Xbox. Well, unless you count halo. but I don't. halo is the REASON I bought an xbox.
Uh.
You should take pictures that aren't taken at night/in the dark. Take pictures during the day, but not of the sky. The polywallydoodle picture (if it had been sharper) was great. Don't be afraid to take pictures of people in action, or at a total lack of action (people at rest are typically boring though, unless they are very beautiful/ugly/strange). For scenery pictures, if the entire picture isn't beautiful, sharp, enduring, it's not interesting.
This from someone who spends all of work outside but can't bring himself to go outside to take the pictures of this beautiful town (and outdoors).
And... I just saw the first Chia pet commercial on tv in like... ages.
