I see you…
Good news and bad news.
I found out today that I’m not the permanent bread bitch and eventually I’ll be going back to hours I can properly function at. I’m very glad to hear that as me placing orders while bleary eyed and incoherent can be much like Russian Roulette.
On another note I shipped out my broken power supply for the server and got my new one from another seller today. It seems it was broken BEFORE the item was even shipped. This reminds me of the time we had this giant CRT monitor shipped to our house via UPS Oops. It had to be replaced 4 times before we got a working model. I remember laughing on the first shippment because the UPS guy rolled a round box into our living room with the sound of broken glass rattling around. I hope this fucker works though, I had to spend twelve bucks to send the first one back… I’d hate to do it yet again.
Labor Day Open Thread
I was one of the folks that had to work on Labor Day (making the day all the more true). Real clusterfuck of a day but at least I got paid twice the usual amount.
I discovered today that the bread person I’ve replaced will no longer be working bread (they moved to another division of our department). I’m going to talk to my boss, I don’t want this job. I have the non pregnant version of morning sickness. I wake up every morning with acid stomach, I feel shaky. If I drink something for an extra jolt I feel even MORE shaky and it just makes me feel unstable. And my brain is never on at that hour. So I’m going to have to have a little polite talk with the boss…
So far this seems to be the best way to solve the veralun problem.
Thanks guys! You really know how to trash a place.
I don’t think you realize how close this forum is to being completely readonly. But then maybe that is your objective.

It would be sad to see it go. How will the Uru community go on without that lively and useful information resource filled with the most friendliest moderators you could ever find at a webforum? The fate of Uru still being able to work depends on this forum still being around as is in it’s golden intact state!!! If this logic is wrongfully thought out then I don’t want to be right.
Sunday Morning Open Thread
Surprisingly I got off work early yesterday (Saturday) which is strange for a Labor Day. My guess is that the old people are saving their money for Tuesday when senior raisin day takes place.
I played some TF2 and DMC tonight and even checked out a cool program called Mumble. Surprisingly no one seems to mumble, peoples voices come through loud and clear. I had fun using it, though now my vocal chords are now trying to recover from the excessive use I put them through… heh. But it was great.
After today I decided I will not be releasing a review for this week. Mostly due to a lack of serious goofing off and lacking proper sleep the last couple of days. However I think I have something else in store for the week. I’ll just have to go through my files.
Another hot one today.
Today was one of those days where I decided to put on my aussie hat and venture off into town to do the mundane. Went to the bank, bought some new earpieces for my mp3 player, got me some iced tea and bought a nice red leather cinch belt.
I got off early today, which was a surprise seeing as today is Friday and the start of Labor Day Weekend. I did have fun checking out the little shops in town. I rarely ever do so, and when I do a bunch of things would have changed since I was last in them.
I don’t think I’ll be working on anything computery today. Just sitting her blogging is heating up the place. I think I’m gonna shut down and do something recreational.
2 videos on the 2nd of September!
If you go on over to SNews right now you’ll not only see the latest YCDTOXB, you’ll see the first episode of The Engine Room!
Evening Open Thread
Well, with a bunch of time cramming and dealing with a bunch of crashes (in premiere pro) I finished the episode. I’ll encode it tomorrow after work and it’ll be released on time. Guess I need to have more faith in myself.
Time for me to power down for the night. It’s fucking hot tonight! It’s 77 degrees outside which feels great. Makes me wish I wasn’t going to lay down early. I hate sleeping when it’s warm. Hope everyone else had a good day, and if not… Sorry.
Oh, and before I head off. Just remember that if you own any flotation devices, keep them away from pedos:
HAMILTON – A repeat public indecency offender has been arrested for allegedly engaging in “sexual activity” with a pink inflatable swimming pool raft, according to Hamilton police.
Edwin Charles Tobergta, 32, was arrested at his Harmon Avenue home early Sunday after he was spotted in the act in an alley in the 1800 block of Howell Avenue behind a residence, a police report shows.
Up the river awhile.
The weather outside is warm, my computer is making things warmer… Time to head up river and see if I can dominate an intertube.
Open Thread
Last night I made a nice tuna tomato pasta (which is a recurring favorite of mine for being equally tasty and easy) and I did some more zombie killing. Over the last few days I’ve gotten so much footage to the point that I clogged my FRAPS drive completely! And it’s a 500 gig drive, so I’ll have plenty of footage to work through while waiting for my other days off so I can socialize.
Having said that I’m not sure if I’ll be able to release the new YCDTOXB on time. It’ll either be tomorrow or sometime around the weekend.
