I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore.

Well, the lappy died off.

It is currently being fixed (hopefully), along with warranty from assistive technologies BC. I hope it is, since I am at my wits end with regards to one specific thing. I am borrowing Alex's computer, and aside from a very different keyboard configuration, It runs windows 7, with windows 7 paint program. This paint program makes pixel art - without any exaggeration at all - impossible. I don't know how they fucked up so badly, but I am incapable of using windows 7 paint program, and windows 7 does not support its older paint programs.

I am really fucking angry from this, and that is bad, because pixel art is how I usually relax. Now I have nothing but rage, and greater hate for microsoft. If I cannot get my lappy fixed, which is another anxiety I dont want to contemplate, I will have to try to get a new one with XP, or at least get a new one, and quickly get XP installed on it.

I am not having a good time.

However, I am trying to be calm, and celebrate Novemberween on Monday, which will hopefully be good. We will have baconduck, sushi, and other nommable foods. There will also be presents and other junk, so it promises to be fun.

Axis

The Axis of Alcohol

Well, tonight was a good night, and since I do not work on the morrow, I decided it would be prudent and alphanumeric to go and get alcohol. I had a sudden want for sake, so I went to the nearby alcohol monger, who sold me some fine stuff from japan. My first thought was to make some sort of night of it, so I also bought a German beer and Alex bought an Italian wine. Okay, the wine was not Italian, but I distinctly remember vineyards in Italy. They were full of grapes and Italians. So we had the Axis of Alcohol, and it was grand. We then watched the funny movies on my computer, I made noodles that turned into the Philippines, and then there was a cat dancing in front of a bear and an alligator, which turned into the Japanese pepper and cheese guys who shot hyper beams of flavour into the noodle jar of that gaijin woman who then was dancing up and down and talking about Choco party, which was okay. that was my night, and all my sake seems to be gone, as does my German beer, and all tats left is the endless black of the nightfall. I will go to sleep now, and dream of the days before the lighting of the world, and the turning of the gods.

Observation

I have noticed that I always think of awesome things to write when I am at work (which, by the way, I have been doing a lot of), but when I get home the will to write has left me. I have noticed over the years - notably while at school - that I am far more creative and zealous over my creation when I am supposed to be doing something else. I take this information cautiously, as I find it good that I have figured out more of myself (Know thyself), however bad that I work in such a particular fashion. I am sure Tom Waits would have something to say about this situation - being struck by inspiration at the worst of times. I will have to consider this, and try to make better sense of it, and see if I can work with/past it.

Thats all for now folks.

Om Nom

it means eating yummy foods.

So, I am feeling much better than I was a little while ago. Some strange junk has been happening at work, with an old coworker being rehired after she quit to leave town. She was not the nicest person working there, but she seems much better now, which is good. Everybodies hours have also been cut back to deal with the winter slow down, or moreover, to deal with flu season.

In happier terms, I now have more time off! and as if to rain on that parade, the sky is raining on my parade (which consists of me wandering around). Serious amounts of Gloom, and it has gotten to me a bit. the outside is grey and dark and yucky, and it is filling my day off with "Bleh".

To remedy this, I intend to drink more coffee, have some good homemade food, and try to watch a movie or write some junk, maybe for Kid Kaiju. I would like suggestions from any of the readers as to good possible Kid Kaiju related junk; new monsters, funny stories, something i should do for it, etc...


Mrawr!
