good news and bad news today.

Good News...apparently now MY webhost has unlimited storage for my account. yay. Unfortunately, but understandably, bandwith limit is the same. Still, I have yet to break 100 MEG of transfer /month, so I think I'll be ok for a while. Time to start hosting some stuff....maybe even *gasp* yet ANOTHER site redesign?

Bad News...I am so damn tired of school right now...all I want to do is quit and find a job...ANY job. Prob couldnt find anything if I wanted to tho. Computer jobs are tight...altho they're better than they were a coupla years ago. Want an example? I'm sitting in pc lab right now, watching an old lady fiddle with a printer that's been here since I got outta high school in '95....dot matrix of course. Lab aids are no longer freshmen who've kissed enough ass to land a "sit on my butt" job all day. Now they're actually folks that are laid off and can't find anything better....

I am done with cars for now. I am gonna get the 73 running, since it's so close, but no more spending all my cash on go fast stuff...I can't afford it. I'm godawful bored tho. I understand now the joke about the laid off network admin wiring the whole house. I am of a mind to wire up mine with security cameras and auto on coffee maker....and other stuff, just becasue I'm so freaking bored. Worst thing is IF I get a decent job, will be nothing more than entry level, stuff I've been doing for years...

Not really depressed or anything right now, just ansty, bored, and dead broke. Rent was paid today...ugh.

Need some booze. That's it. And more (local)friends would be nice. Cheap gas prices would be super.

Heard from an old buddy that used to be into LARPS. Seems the kc kanar is inactive this year, and Emporia kanar is once again on the move. I need the stress relief, god knows. Might actually go do it.
What is Kanar & LARP? It's Basically SCA with foamed padded utensils....

Life indeed sux. Lost wallet AGAIN...must be 2nd time in less than 3 months...problably more like 2 and 1/2. I can't beleive it. This time there are only two possible places it could have gone...bathroom at WSU library when I was involved in rigorous mediatation, or right at home, in the a.m., while I slept.

I beleive it must have been someone walking in the door while I slept. Hard to believe cause insomnia hit and I didn't knock off till around 5 am or so, but only explanation I have, because front door was wide open when I got up, right at 9"30, and rushing off to try not to be late for work. I also believe this because trousers I had on last nite, with the billfold in question was in living room (dont remember having them there) and 2 bux or so in change that I had as well as some parts store reciepts that were in pocket are gone as well. I just can't believe this. Dunno who took it, neigbors, mailman, some random dude broke and walking down the sidewalk....at least I don't have to add vengeful ex-girlfriend to that list...heh.

I had like $60 bux in the wallet itself. Change from selling some stuff outta the garage. Well, not anymore. =-( I was actually gonna eat REAL food this week. No more microwave burritos and water. Now I gotta get ANOTHER new liscense, ANOTHER new soc sec card, and ANOTHER new bank card. No new windshield for the 73...this month. At least they haven't hit the bank account, as rent is due at the end of the week. God, you do make Mondays Oh so interesting. The last wallet incident happened inbetween a sunday and a monday as well. Also right around rent time, if I remember right.

Barely missed being rearended during all this excitement too. Thank god I was in the other lane. Some chick in sunglasses and thinking she was cool (had the sunglasses, and was trying to get her smokes out) went and rearended another chick stopped at a red light and with her blinker on to turn. Less than a minute before some douche in a jeep decided to stop in the middle of the fast lane and make me slam on brakes before he turned on his blinkers and turn. "I don't have to use blinkers, I have a jeep".

Very frustrating. If I didn't have other stuff to worry about, I would be looking harder for some ass to kick. Any ass. Refrained from screaming at some old lady with arm in cast who asked for help with her locking gas cap....on a dodge aries/reliant. Would have been amusing if I did not recall doing the same to my aries. At this time of gas prices, not funny at all.

Hell, I should be glad I'm alive....whoever came in (IF they came in) to take wallet could apparently just as easy killed me in my sleep with my own damn samurai sword....or a kitchen knife, or a fork....

So I couldn't resist SOME links....sue me.
Must see Big Balls Live! No, I have not decided that I like men all of a sudden. (I love the ladies, not the laddies.) Rumor on radio has it that AC/DC is gonna go on tour. What better way to celebrate camaroism than going to an AC/DC concert? Still broke, being a computer nerd for this church is getting old. Most of the people are cool, but there are posers, (like everyplace) that get on my nerves. And there's also the fact that while I'm not getting paid a whole lot, I'm hearing constant complaints that I'm getting paid TOO MUCH. Old 'puter guy seems to have spoiled the place by doing everything for free and fixing husband's cousin's grandson' s pc on the weekends, etc etc.

I MAY not have a life either, but that is because of classes. No more freeloaders for me thank you very much.

Still lusting after a t-top 2nd gen. Maybe when I'm rich.

Now shopping for a car for my teenage sister. Dunno why, she has grown to be a self centered brat, and mom's "favorite", but she's still family. And she deserves better than being screwed out of the sweet car deal (97? Camry, aunt's, got new liberty) that was two years in planning until it fell through (NEVER do business with family) So I am looking for something cheap and ULTRA reliable, that she will probably break 2 weeks after getting it just to do the right thing. *sigh* I just hope my kid brother surpises everyone like I think he will. He's the only hope I have left out of all my siblings.

Other news: Not much. Had linkies to some pretty neat webcomics....

www.artbomb.net was one, other's I will have to dig out.
