I guess I only update this thing when I can't sleep. Lucky you (har har). This weekend (the real weekend, not my days off weekend) was the worst. I felt majorly depressed. This has happened often in the last few months and I have missed some work because of it. I feel like I am skating on thin ice with the payroll department at work due to the time I have missed. I just let things at work get to me...it's who I am, there is no "off" switch to numb the emotions I feel when I read crime reports. I love this field but I don't see myself working in it forever...I'm just too sensitive (although I've grown a thicker skin in the last few years). I don't know what I want to do though! I have no other passion. Maybe teaching U.S. history, but I'd have to go back to school for awhile. I can't afford that right now.
Ugh, I can't afford a lot of things right now. I just shelled out a ton of money to pay for the repair of the shock mounts on my car. I also had them put authentic Volvo lug nuts on my wheels. The previous owners took the car to Sears once, and didn't realize until later that the repair guys had switched out the high quality Volvo lug nuts for cheap ones. I'm really taking care of this car since I intend to keep it for a long time. There is a great European car repair shop in town and they are super professional and never try to screw you over. They are fast and reliable and I trust them with my car. I would even go so far as to drive up here for them even when I'm living in Fresno.
Marc and I had a nice but short weekend together. We always watch Iron Chef America on Sundays. Love that show. I am playing Elder Scrolls: Oblivion on his 360. I like it so far and I'm impressed by how vast the world is. I have a few gripes (I hate first person and I would like to be able to find quests more easily), but overall it is entertaining. I beat Fable II but I still go back to it occasionally to further my quest to buy all the property in the game. BOW BEFORE YOUR NEW QUEEN.
I have so many games to play. I need to finish Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box first. One of Marc's friends recommended Hotel Dusk on the DS to me, and since it was 30% off at the Game Crazy that's going out of business in Fresno, I bought it. I would like to try Scribblenauts but I'll finish my current games first. I played the demo for Batman: Arkham Asylum and really liked it, but I'll put that off for now.
We are going to Disneyland a week from Sunday! I'm so excited! My aunt, who works for Disney, sent me tickets...I love her. Hopefully if the park isn't too crowded and we get in quality ride time, we can go over to California Adventures, which I have surprisingly never been to. Marc's friend Anthony works in the park and is going to show us around a bit, which will be cool. I like all of Marc's friends - a good sign! They are so cool, and of course are geeks like us.
How I Met Your Mother S4 on DVD saved me this weekend. I love that show and it's still so funny. I also watched Sunshine Cleaning (a downer, but good performances) and Superman Returns. I'm on a mission to see all Kevin Spacey movies ever made. So what's the deal...are Lex Luthor and Kitty getting busy when we're not looking or are they just platonic bad buddies?
Oh yeah, I got a BlackBerry Curve. I shelled out a lot for it since I wasn't due for an upgrade. I also got my own phone plan, so I'm no longer on the family plan. ~*~*~Growing up~*~*~. It's nice, though, now that I've learned to text on it. It saved my bored ass on the train this evening, since my iPod died and I forgot to bring my DS or a book. I just read celebrity gossip and The New York Times on it until I got home. What a contrast in reading material!
I better end this before I bore each and every one of you who still reads this thing.
I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU, I'MMA A LET YOU FINISH, BUT
cult_classic_ HAS THE BEST ENTRIES OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME.
Love and peace (but no hippie crap),
