Early Morning Open Thread

Yesterday I was in a whole other world. I made some rice noodle soup and Bengal spiced chai for my sweet tooth, then 2 pots of flowering green jasmine. Then I spent the rest of my day working on half of the script for my next review. The review might not get done this week either,, this is pretty big and it has to be done right.

As for today I awoke to rain pouring down on the roof. In a way I hope it continues, coming home to nap would seem a lot easier.

Is it too late to take out another vacation?

Boy when it rains it pours… I worked a full day plus an extra 30 mins of overtime due to a couple sick calls plus the two closers having to leave early due to a family emergency. I would have stayed until closing (they really wanted me to) but I already had agreed to come in on my day off tomorrow to work. Why? Because my boss who is awesome at making work schedules (and by awesome I mean awesomely shitty) didn’t think to schedule anyone to work dairy… So I have no idea how long I’ll be working tomorrow but you won’t be seeing me until sometime Saturday.  I’m back to working bread again meaning more getting up at the crack of fucking dawn. Actually no, I’m working bread and training someone to take the last bread persons place. Yes… The temp has to train people. I’m honored and annoyed at the same time.

It’s too bad I have to work tomorrow morning, because I could have made a lot more tonight with the overtime.

First day back in the hell hole.

Started my day getting called in earlier than expected due to two sick calls. The place was absolutely swarming with elderly zombies as today was geriatric tuesday.  But I managed to survive and come home to a nice warm soup and sandwich and some stress relieving tea. Which felt great to feast upon as outside it was storming pretty badly. It’s calmed down since but I’d say while it was going out there it had to be over 60mph. I was headed into the garage and I almost got knocked sideways.

Last day of vacation open thread

It seems while on vacation I decided to take a slight break from blogging among other things I normally do. In fact I’m not sure there will be a new episode this week. I’ll put together a vlog or something.

I’ve mostly been playing TF2 and some L4D2. It seems valve decided to fuck up normal mode. Did you know that if you linger in a place looking for stuff after clearing it out another horde will spawn in 60 seconds? Yes, a horde of 100. Why? Because Normal isn’t hard enough? Jesus fuck, leave Normal alone and make the other modes even harder than they already are. I was playing Hard Rain and we had to restart before even leaving the beginning because we were already getting horded and raped by commons and special infected.

Ready for work tomorrow. I have all my clothes ready to go. Then after work I think I’ll download the free DLC for Portal 2. I’m not sure if you have to pay on the XBox or not this time since I haven’t heard word on that. But probably.
