    Default What is making you happy right now

    I needed a thread like this, and I think the forum needed a thread like this. So here we go;

    I finally got around to doing some cleaning around my place (Amsterdam) and the laundry is in the washer.
    Congratulations America

    Heading down to Sacramento tomorrow for my first day of work. Gotta do some paperwork and training, after that the rest is work-from-home.

    Down? Where are you? I thought you were in Florida.

    Over a dozen of us were fired over the course of a month back in May/June. My bf and I went to stay with my sister in Reno for a few months, in September we got an apartment with a good friend of mine and his girlfriend near Yuba City here in California. I'd been living off of savings and contest winnings, but that money ran out last month. I've been living off of credit cards since then.

    Wow. After living in SF and Florida, Yuba City has got to really suck. I'm like 50 miles SE of there. Anyway, enjoy your time in Sacramento.

    The power failed at work today so we all left marginally early. Yay .
    Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of wafer thin printed circuits that fill my complex. If the word hate was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for humans at this micro-instant.
    For you.
    Hate.

    I grew up around here, so it's alright. I prefer Oregon though.

    Dutch broadcasters finally are seeing the light; they are trying to put an end to the practise of putting on shows months after they have been broadcasted in the US. SBS still has a tiny lag of 3 days, but they'll put on Lost a mere 60 hours after it has been on in the US. I'm pretty certain that means they'll lure a lot of people back to their regular schedules from the internet.

    Unfortunately I don't usually have time to regularly watch something every week at the same time. So until they have on-demand free viewing (with advertising for all I care)..

    Maybe I should buy a tvcard for my laptop though, then I can record shows.

    I got called back to work. I was given a one week suspension over two weeks ago. In order to help with the money issue that sparked the comments that led my suspension; Ive been tranferred from the shop to the install crew. More dough, but the work and the hours suck. I'll have to be out of town a lot, but the alternative was unemployment.

    Scribblenauts may possibly be the most entertaining video game I have ever played.

    Sadly, my son took his DS away from me now. He watched me the whole time I was playing, and told me he was proud of me when I solved puzzles (they aren't that complex, but it appears to reward you for more creative solutions).

    Have to muck around with it again when he's at school.

    I drove my parent's van today, and the odometer passed 100,000.
    When they bought the car, I wasn't even five yet.

    *ugh* I am still working long hours nearly 7 days a week. It's like it's still Xmas...

    My honey has wednesdays off, and tonight he made me an amazing dinner.

    Braised Short Rib sandwich, with carmalized pickled onions (he pickled 'em too) and Monty Jack Cheese and arugala, on crusty grilled bread.
    Also, as if that was not enough, he made soup with parsnips, kale, endive, spinach, fennel (the vegetable), a touch of dill, a little lemon juice and Feta cheese.

    He also did laundry.

    This was so nice to come home to, after a long tiring day (12.5 hours).
    My husband is teh awesome, and all the gay marriage haters can suck it!

    Your fella' seems as thoughtful and loving as my gal. My 14 hour install, with a 4 hour drive (each way) had me burnt to a crisp, frazzled, and frustrated. When I got home she put fresh sheets on the bed (it's been very cold so, warm sheets) and foot massage till I passed-out. What a woman, heh?

    First week of work done, and the job's going great! I always like doing these non-game projects, it gives me a different perspective on design and programming. Games are always gun gun gun gun cutscene boss fight.

    Fotki sent me some "upgrade" spam, but because of it, I found my pictures of my old Honda delSol. Now to find pictures of my custom painted Nissan 240SX and I'll feel complete again!

    Getting a haircut soon! Maybe I'll post before/after pictures. Well actually, probably won't. My hair is not being nice to me right now and I don't think I want pictures to remember it.

    Oh dear, my children are making me laugh again.

    girlchild: I think Timmy (the cat, damn it) likes me very much.
    me: Of course he does
    girlchild: Maybe that's because I'm wearing makeup
    me: Are you wearing makeup?
    girlchild: No. May I?
    boychild: You can't wear makeup until you're older than mom, because she's still not allowed to.
