Trying LJ Again, Round 3?
Hi everyone, I figure I haven't updated this thing in over a year but I am really enjoying going back and rereading some posts so I guess it is worth a shot giving this another... shot. For those who I haven't talked to in a long time, I am pretty much at the same place that I have been for awhile. I am at the same job I posted about above, I still live with Mr. Manos (he hasn't molested me yet, yay), I still float around and about, and I am generally doing well. I have lost almost all of my interest in clubs except when it involves meeting up with friends at them. That stupid game WoW has sucked me back in. Luckily, it is sucking other people back in too so I guess it is working out. How is everyone else doing out there in cyberspace? Also, I need to work on commenting on other people's posts, it is an art rarely practiced by me but one I wish to improve upon. Current Mood: chipper | | Sunday, March 5th, 2006 | | 12:58 pm |

Day in the Park
I wanted to say thank you to kifar for organizing a fun day in the park. Got there a bit late, which was around 2. I was completely out of it behind the wheel driving to the park and missed the correct junction (twice) and almost got me and sp_hexonxonx killed. Once we arrived, we discovered that we somehow beat most of the other people there so we just chatted with kifar, leifterry, aquaregalia, and Mark. We also broke out with the pie and had a decent time. When experimentium and sperenza arrived, we began RUF. Unfortunately, the game didn't last very long due to lack of players and lack of ability of the players to sustain a run but it was a decent time. leifterry had to go back to work, so we decided to go buy a kickball to play kickball. Our team lost the first round horribly, and decided to remake teams when machine_kisses and Mark number two arrived. A wandering kid in the park decided to join us and soon became the star player of the game. This was a pretty good game that lasted a fair amount of time before it ended due to a rivet assault on an Ice Cream Truck. The star player left with his family and we then called it a day. So, overall it was a good time. I wish a few more people would have shown up to play, but it worked out in the end. My only complaint is I should have been more wise picking shoes due to a blood blisters that have formed on my feet. :\ Current Mood: cheerful | | Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005 | | 4:02 am |
Ahh... the wonders of 4 AM, where everything takes on surreal tones. So, my department at work had their budget cut so I was let go. I have had one interview and a few good leads since, so hopefully this won't last nearly as long as my last round of unemployment. Learning Python, XML, DOMs, and XPath real quick like will help in this. I have decided my computer is trying to kill itself. Not only didn't the power supply burn itself out, but also the fans on my video card literally tried to fly off. I am happy that when my video cards GPU got hotter than the coolant in my engine after driving 100 miles, it didn't permanently fry itself. The power supply has been successfully replaced (and now my wall has a blue LED glow to it) and a new heat sink is in the mail. Anywho, it seems like I will be attending Adrenochrome tomorrow. Anybody else out there making the evening journey as well? Current Mood: indescribable | | Thursday, May 5th, 2005 | | 1:42 am |

This has been a rather eventful week. It has overall been a good week. Thursday was trips three and four to SF. lynxcat’s car died to him on the way to the club he was doing in SF so I picked up him and his posse and headed up there. Once we got there, it was discovered that his CDs were missing and that they needed to be found so djscarlette and I went on a grand adventure through Mountain View and San Jose to locate them. After they were found, we headed back and made it to the club with 30 minutes to spare before the doors opened. I had a good night; the place’s decorations were great, I enjoyed the music, and had good company. My only complaint was a lot of people who said they were going to come didn’t and the place didn’t get as nearly as many people as expected. The previous two trips to SF involved the club MEAT and Death Guild. Both involved fliers and standing in rain and cold for a large amount of time trying to convince people to go to the Thursday club. Well, in truth djscarlette was fliering, I was just moral support. It was nice seeing sperenza, experimentium, sanguina, violenze, and others around SF. I wish I would see all of you more often. Besides the evening events, much random fun in the form of Thrift Stores, restaurants, and the Family Guy were had. Current Mood: content | | Friday, March 11th, 2005 | | 11:31 pm |
AIM
I don't know how many of you know this, but AIM changed their Terms of Service on the 5th of this month. The reason why I bring this is up is the following under Content You Post: "Although you or the owner of the Content retain ownership of all right, title and interest in Content that you post to any AIM Product, AOL owns all right, title and interest in any compilation, collective work or other derivative work created by AOL using or incorporating this Content. In addition, by posting Content on an AIM Product, you grant AOL, its parent, affiliates, subsidiaries, assigns, agents and licensees the irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide right to reproduce, display, perform, distribute, adapt and promote this Content in any medium.

Rcap
Another week is done and I must say it has been pretty good. Went to Adrenochrome on Wednesday and had a good time. Danced to a few songs, chatted with some people that I don’t nearly see enough, and took Mr. Charles home. Definitely going to try to make it out for the 2 Year Anniversary next week. Thursday I forced my sleeping schedule back to normal hours and headed up to SF for the Game Developers Conference. Wandered around, watched presentations and new games, grabbed the information for companies hiring programmers, and handed my resume off to Blizzard. I would give my left arm to work for Blizzard North. *crosses fingers* After that got Sushi at the Metreon, met up with Mr. leifterry and relaxed outside in SF for a few hours. Then it was to the Mont for a friend’s birthday dinner. Today was my job interview that was done at a coffee shop. It went rather well. The only problem is that job itself may or may not exist. He seemed really interested though so which is really good. It is a small company (I would be employee #6) but I am friends with two people who work there already so that helps. So, hopefully work from SOMETHING will work out. I can't stand this whole unemployment thing but things are looking up. Current Mood: happy | | Monday, February 28th, 2005 | | 7:30 pm |
The Move
The move in now over and everything I think I need is here. The internet fairy (aka UPS) came with a magic box today, and everything is working ahead of schedule. I still need to empty a couple of boxes, but I am mostly done. I am right next to Oakridge Mall, so if any of you are in the area and want to hang out, please feel free to give me call. Hell, if you want to just hang out and you aren't anywhere near it, that would be awesome. I am feeling strangely... social after moving.

Time to brush the dust of this journal and make a quick comment. So, due to some interesting coincidences I am returning to the South Bay today (Saturday). If any of you folks are feeling rather bored and have some free time around 2ish and want to help with a box or three, feel free to give me a call and I can give you directions. Oh, and I won’t have teh interweb for about a week, so if you want to get a hold of me for some reason my cell phone would be your best bet.

Nothing like migraine induced dreams from hell to make me be awake at the wee hours of the morning. Nothing terribly new with me. Still need to get the last of my stuff from San Jose. Been hanging out with aislinfey a bunch the last week, looking for work, and borrowed season 1 of Angel and not really caring for it. Not having any money so no VNV for me. I have also been getting up at normal people hours which is interesting. New Years was a party where I sort of knew five people out of 50 or so. I was entertained with people watching so it turned out well. How are you guys doing? Current Mood: aggravated | | Thursday, December 30th, 2004 | | 1:26 pm |
Moved
Well, I am now mostly moved. My furniture is set up at my new place with my computer. I have some more boxes to move but it shouldn't take more than 2 trips. Moving furniture last night in the rain was an... experience. Anywho, what are people doing for New Years Eve? Current Mood: tired | | Friday, December 24th, 2004 | | 12:34 am |
Nothing like getting home to have all of the parking around the house taken by police. I wonder what is going on. Still packing. Still no date set. Thinking of a week day next week, like Thursday. Current Mood: curious | | Monday, December 20th, 2004 | | 7:45 am |
So It Begins...
I have started to clear out my room at my parent's house for my move. I am still not sure when the move will be, but it will be before January. My question to the group is if anyone wants to help, when they could do it, and if they have access to a truck? :) Current Mood: curious | | Monday, December 6th, 2004 | | 2:20 pm |
Random Article of the Day And Other Stuff
According to this Newsweek Article, 55% of Americans polled believe "every word of the Bible is literally accurate." I don't know about the rest of you, but this makes me a tad bit nervous. I just got off the phone with an EA recruiter. Not sure how well the phone interview went, she said "cool" a lot. I will know by the end of the week if they want to actually interview me or not. It isn't a local EA, so if I get this job, I will be moving somewhere far east of here. Current Mood: contemplative | | Monday, November 15th, 2004 | | 10:51 pm |

Everclear
I am glad that when people threaten to hold me down and pour booze down my throat in order to get me to do a shot of Everclear, that 1) I am famous, 2) I am popular and funny and 3) I am too buzzed to really give a damn. Current Mood: cheerful |
