It's Saturday

This is a post I've been meaning to do for a while and never gotten around to it. I've partly been waiting to get houndedbywolves up and running, but even then I suppose this is not what I want to put up there so here it is.

Things are great. I spent so much of 2007 and 2008 complaining that I think it's important I take the time to do the opposite. Nicelbot and I left our house in Paddington and have moved to the Gabba with a friend and the place is fantastic, I really enjoy living there. The house is kind of strange and there is plenty of stuff that is irritating, but it only adds to the character of the place to me. The good part is that I'm living there with Nicelbot.

So much of this stupid blog was used to whinge about how lonely and emo I was so I suppose I really should take the time to point out that I'm very much in love and have been for some time now and it's the best. I never really knew what to expect I guess and I don't know what else to say, but I'm really happy and I'm pretty sure she is too. It's pretty amazing to look back at my old perspective on relationships and women to see how different it is now, how much healthier I feel like my brain is, mainly because of Nicelbot. Anyway, it's all pretty win these days.

You know how you're heading to work and it's a really nice day and all you want to do is call in sick and go to the beach? Well every now and then on a Saturday when it is a nice day I feel like it's a good thing to take a moment to acknowledge that. I suppose that's what I'm doing now.

I used to really, really hate work but I don't as much as I used to. I understand work now. I get my job, I get my position within this company and I feel like I understand what I'm capable of professionally. I'm not saying I'm capable of a lot, I'm just saying that I think I get it for the mostpart. I was quite keen to leave for so long, but I guess I am okay with staying now. Having said that I'm still looking for exciting opportunities, which are unfortunately few and far between.

So yeah, I guess that's the current state of things in a brief summary. I feel as though I'm at a real high point in a lot of ways, so I should take the time to realize it.

Tune in again soon for our regular scheduled programming of intense complaining about things that can be easily changed but are not.

Awesome weekend, Great experience

Went to Tangalooma with Nicelbot, Hondo and Saz on the weekend and it was pretty fun. I didn't get epically drunk and we did a lot of swimming, which I really enjoyed. Plenty of good times were had. Great job!

dozens of months of fun

As of two days ago I have been working at my job for a year. I guess that's good, but now I feel as though I HAVE to leave. Also because about 10 minutes ago I caught up to date completely on virtually everything I have been working on here.

Like Agent Smith I must escape. I must break free.

Flak'd

I guess I have a fragile ego or something. I am pretty cool to go with the flow and if things stay good for a while then I think I'm great. Any problems come up and instantly I shut down. I'm a pain and it's getting old.

Groan. I have such high ideals and never follow them through. I think I am going to finalize all my hair-brained schemes and then give it a rest. Let's see how that goes.

I had a pretty good weekend, but I drank too much. I always drink too much. The worst.

I saw a few gifs of people getting hit by cars. I lolled until I saw a little kid get owned. He started running about one second before he got hit and made like two steps. Didn't stand a chance. It was morbid.

playing the game

I have to sort of do a time log here at work now. I am pretty much cool with that, except that it only works when based on the idea that I have a consistent workflow.

I should probably start looking for new work a lot harder.

Mayor McCheese

At the risk of starting a movie blog, I just wanted to say I couldn't give a solitary fuck about Terminator:Salvation. In fact, I was on a movie blog just before and found out a new trailer had just been released, causing me to realize that it had not come out, been mediocre and left the cinema yet, which I thought was the case.

I wish James Cameron would use his JC powers to raise some zombies to eat anyone who creates a tacky sequel, but we all know he's too good for that. Right now he's healing lepers with one hand while directing your new favourite movie with the other.

Dare... to listen

I'm pretty sure I have the most comprehensive collection of the 1986 Transformers Soundtrack. Do you have 5 different versions of Dare? No, but I do.
