Euchre tournament looming.

I need to leave in five minutes or so, so I'll make this short.

The first full week of school is under my belt. It feels like it should have been longer than a week, but there you have it. School is going pretty well. I have homework I have to do tomorrow which is nice, I suppose.

I was really productive this morning, but I spent the last 3 hours or so playing Battle for Middle Earth 2. Middle Earth would be a fun place to visit, but I don't know if I would want to live there. If I did live there, I would definately want to live there around the end of the second age. Maybe in Rohan. Hang out at Helms Deep. Practive archery and fencing. It would lots of fun. Untill Sauron was defeated, after that there'd would just be a lot of sitting around and farming. There wouldn't be any showers or toilets or soap.

My Jesus playlist is only nine songs long. I thought it would be much longer by now.

Planar Chaos: The set that made me hate Magic

Competitive Magic is not fun. It is tedious and complicated. Usually after pre-releases I am super stoked about Magic, but after Planar Chaos, it'll be a long time before I play magic again.

Hey we didn't do 35 thousand pieces of mail last night! We only did 22,800! So what time did I get out of work you ask? 9:30! That's right kids, what would have been potentially our earliest night since December was destroyed when route 5 broke down, around 4:50, in Dexter. They didn't end up getting to CMS till about 7:30, 2 hours late. AND Pat is gone all week! YAY! Work sucked hard yesterday.

I'm hungry so I'm going to eat a sandwich. Then I'm going to watch some Boston Legal and maybe take a nap. Then... TO Work!

Secret Post Number 11

HEY BLOG!
Where have you been all week?
What? You've been here the entire time, and it is I who have neglected you?
Well I had my reasons. For instance, did you know school started this week? Cause it did. It was very exciting. The highlight of school so far would be the game we played in political science on Friday. It was a blast.

So if it doesn't snow like a demon tonight Matthew and I are going to the Magic Prerelease tomorrow, which means I should be going to bed nowish. I'm not particularly tired and, earlier this week I made the mistake of getting into yet another travel documentary series. This one featuring Ewan MacGregor and his friend Charlie Boorman going around the world on motorbikes. So I'm waiting on the next episode to finish downloading. It's about 95%. I just want to see how they get out of Mongolia. What should I do till that finishes downloading.... play some more Bookworm? Don't mind if I do.

Curse of the Flying Ninjas in the groovy House of Super Incest.

That's what I would've called Curse of the Golden Flower if I would have been in charge of naming it. I really enjoyed the movie though. I couldn't help thinking, while watching it, how awesome a Romance of the Three Kingdoms/Dynasty Warriors movie would be.

HEY!!! I don't have to work on Monday!!!!!!!!!

Dig it.

In other news class starts on Tuesday, but since I don't have any Tuesday classes, it starts for me on Wednesday. I'm somewhat excited about school starting... mostly because time seems to go by faster when school is in session.

I just took down the Christmas decorations, it was time. So now I feel that my household chore duties are done so I'm going to play some computer games for a while.

I dreamt that it was Saturday

Work has been the suck this week. I would tell you how much fucking mail we've ran this weekend, but the number is so obscene I'd lose my god damn PG rating. Let's just say that we've ran about 136 thousand pieces so far this week. Today is friday, fridays are always hellmouths of turmoil at CMS. We'll probably do another 35+ thousand pieces tonight. This blows.

In other news, today I was shocked after going to bed and one and then without even trying, waking up at 11:30 a full 10 and a half hours later. Wow!

So this weekend starts my semester of poverty. About $125 out of every paycheck from here till the end of the semester goes to semo. I also have 2 other bills that come monthly usually the second and third weeks, of 30 and fifty dollars respectively. The point is, I'll be spending a lot less money on stuff this semester.

Also, Rise of Legends rules. Sadly I can only play one mission at a time before the game chokes. Great game though.

The Sandman comes

I've been asleep for 22 out of the last 48 hours. How do I do it?


So here's a brief recount of one of the dreams I had last night.

I was at work, it was going to be an early night (unlike what we had last night: 30,000 on a Monday, Christ) but Jay and Jimmy were going to leave to go see a Semo basketball game. So Scott and I finished all the work and I clocked out and headed over to Spaeth's, who still had his Halloween decorations up by the way, so Spaeth's parents were haning out with my aunt Mary and Ian had all his friends over. It turns out Spaeth was with Matthew and Jonathan preparing to go to some sort of dance contest. I wasn't interested in a dance contest so I was just going to run home (that's something that happens a lot in my dreams, Me running) So I started down the hill and who should I encounter but Josh Lamouria. Josh was looking for his cat. It was a grey cat and I think her name was Charlie. So I helped him look for his cat in the woods around Spaeth's house and after finding 2 cats that weren't his, I found Charlie. We took Charlie back to Josh's house, which as it turned out was also located in the woods around Spaeth's house and there was a pool party going on at Josh's house (which as I understand it is also inhabited by Layne, Shad and Toph; not just in my dream but in real life. And technically in real life I think it's Layne and Shad's house) I didn't really want to stay for the pool party, but I stuck around and said hello to some people then Josh took me home. The End.

That was much more interesting than what really happened to me yesterday, trust me.

Quickly, before the pilgrims get here!

I haven't posted lately because I haven't done anything other than work the last week or two. I did go up to St. Louis for New Years eve. Terrence gave me the newest Fables trade.... It was sort of dissapointing considering that this was the Snow and Bigby story we've been waiting for for a year or so and they ended it in pretty much three issues. The story wasn't even all that good. I'm still going to pick up the trades when they come out... it'll probably start getting better again soon.

In other news... oh wait. There is no other news. Boston Legal is the shit by the way. I'd pick up season 2 now if I didn't have to get work Jimmy a birthday present.

Anyway. It's late.
