It was an interesting drive to work this morning.
Randomness
January 31, 2010Skipping lunch sucks, but getting home an hour early because it got
too busy is awesome.
Kitchen Nightmares put out a new episode – looking forward to watching
that on Hulu later tonight.
Music is my addiction.
This random post brought to you from Lynn’s laptop, since I’m too lazy
to get mine from the other room.
I have no idea what I was going to say.
January 28, 2010That is all.
Does anybody even check this anymore?
January 27, 2010Now that I’ve got my blog set up for email updates, I can just post
from work when I’m on break.
My life is funded by the internet. SCHWEET.
Lunch today: Sonic Burger of some kind and a Dr. Pepper… Now if I
could clear this headache up. I also blame the INTARWEBZ for my
headache. I could always go do something other than sit on the
computer on my breaks, but meh.
Back to not working for another 20 minutes or whatever. Yay lunch, now
come on 3 PM so I can GTFO.
POP QUIZ
January 26, 2010If you’ve noticed a test post or two come and go in the past day, I’ve
enabled posting by email and tossed in a cron job to pull the updates
in.
A+
Twenty Ten
January 1, 2010Twenty Ten sounds cooler than Two Thousand (and) Nine.
Happy New Year.

December 17, 2009What is the world at 4 AM?
A void.
I’m not convinced that there really is a 4 AM. Sure, the clock reaches that hour. The hand continues to reach and reach until it finally hits 5 AM, when the flow of time and space are restored.
Nothing really happens at 4. Cold, fog, rain, heat, whatever is there, but the world is still. Sometimes I push it to 4:30 just because I have no reason to wake up at 4. I found a way to work that was a little quicker and I tend to skip my computer until I get home. It’s dark and the world exists, but there’s nothing there. At 5 I walk out the door and head to my car, where I sling my messenger bag and keyboard and energy drink into the passenger seat of the car and head off to the land of technical support.
Suddenly I’m transported to work. There isn’t much traffic at 5 AM on the path I take, even in this large city.
There is no spoon.
The world seems slow until the sun rises. I wake up around 4 each morning for 5 days out of the week, but I definitely enjoy the two days where I am allowed to wake up after the sun.
I listen to my iPod a lot at work. It just depends on what I’m doing that day, or what I’m in the mood to listen to. Sometimes I just listen to the activity around me, and sometimes I block it out with my iPod and escape into my work. I always work as hard as I can. After being without work for over a year, I wouldn’t know how to be lazy at work.
I like working early in the day and getting off mid-afternoon. It gives me some time during the day to exist. Middle of the day shifts just seem to stick you with this life where you have no time to yourself for 5 days out of the week.
I’m in the mood to do two things: Play SNES and watch Fight Club. Must achieve these things ASAP.
I have discovered Skull Candy earbuds. Half price on Black Friday at RadioShack, and their quality fits their name. Candy for your skull, indeed.
Life is not boring.
Busy Busy Busy Bee
November 20, 2009Just a quick update… work is going good; now that I’m out of training I’m working a pretty early shift that leaves me the rest of the day to do whatever I need, which is cool.
LIFE IS BUSY.
Operating Systems Oh My
October 26, 2009Windows 7 was released on the 22nd and so far I can say this: I hate their commercials.
However, on the 22nd Apple dropped out a hilarious (and surprisingly accurate) commercial about it. It’s called Broken Promises and you can watch it here: http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/
My excitement lies with the release of Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala). Three days to go and I’m making my checklist for things to back up. I’ll probably run a fresh install and try the ext4 filesystem. This pretty much means that the weekend before I start my new job will be spent geeking out on my laptop on and off.
Job Acquired!
October 19, 2009LEVEL UP! +1 JOB
I had an interview last week and received a job offer Friday. It’s even something I love to do!
Yay Houston!
