Well, as time goes on you will find out a lot about me, or a little, who knows, but one thing I can absolutely tell you is that I am not a sports person. Not playing, not watching. I used to. I used to play a lot of sports. Baseball, lacrosse, wrestling (is that a sport?). Some martial arts, all of which involved weapons of some pointy, sharp sort. But not in a very long time.
And never rugby.
I am not sporty, as I have said, but I seem to have been sucked into going to a rugby practice by a guy who works with me at the diner. The required equipment? Running shoes, work-out shorts, and a shirt you don't like very much.
We will be tackling each other with no pads of any variety between 7:30 and 9:30 tonight.
In Tallahassee it's currently 50 degrees.
The low is going to be 41.

Jesus H. Christ it's been a long time. I just never have any sort of desire or inspiration to type a post and tell everyone random stuff about my day. I mean, what should I tell you? I have an iPod now *shrug*? I have found that Chris Martin's rendition of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas is incredibly beautiful and saddening? What do you want to know, people? Hm? School schedule? Work schedule? I just don't know what you want... This isn't working out... |

After trying to write a book once...and the plot becoming so convoluted that I had no idea what the fuck was going to get me from point A to point B anymore, i think i may need to take another shot at it. Just thought i'd let you know. |

Well, happy Thanksgiving to you all. I'm in my dorm having eaten my fill of my own feast (Tofurky, roasted vegetables, apple-cranberry potato dumplings, if you must know). I haven't posted in a while (really?) and for some reason, in this post-gorge haze, i'm a bit introspective, or dizzy, i can't tell which. I haven't been posting for three reasons. 1. Work. I get tired and i sleep afterwards, especially considering all of my shifts are overnight. 2. WoW. Honestly, i'd rather gain imaginary points, while spending real money, than tell anybody about my life. At least it gives me a sense of accomplishment. 3. I have nothing going on. That's probably most of it, there. I really don't do anything other than go to class and work, and meetings at the research lab and my various clubs. I'm feeling a bit like the narrator of Fight Club at the moment, and that's probably because most of my body's functions are slowing down to enable the many boli of food that I have consumed to be digested. That and i have little to keep my mind occupied. No scheduled classes, etc. iTunes has a poor selection of movies, I must say. And i say iTunes because I can't acquire movies in the rightful way of torrenting them, due to the whole legality issue and the fact that I am subject to the FSU Department of Telecommunications *eye roll*.
Well, that was unnecessary. Hope you are all enjoying yourselves. |

I had an irresistible urge to listen to Ready Steady Go by L'Arc-en-Ciel, more commonly referred to as "The theme song to Fullmetal Alchemist"
A more complete post to come at some point in the near future. |

Damn.
The thing you'll find when you work overnight and either get very little sleep or no sleep at all is that, in accordance with the theory of relativity, you age a lot more than if you were to get a healthy amount of sleep. Right now I'm running on less than three hours of sleep and 20 ounces of Starbucks' cheapest brew ($2.10 ftw!). I feel older. I probably look older too. What's that? Prostate cancer and bald spots? Damn. So, yeah, I've started serving. I'm on my second week of work, and first week of solo-flying. Some of the highlights actually occurred last night, starting with having every table on the floor that had people in it. Yeah, that included six booths and a table of nine. Nine Republicans no less *snicker*. Yes, five booths and a table of nine that probably had never worked a legitimate day in their lives (I'm just hating, please don't send me flamage). So, that sucked especially when it took me forever to get their checks and I also forgot to put one guy's order in, so he got it for free. I also had a table of four, ahem, gentlemen that decided to all give me exactly twenty-one cents tip. I could have handled no tip at all, but when it seems like they conspired to give me that exact number, it makes me want to track them down... The rest of the night wasn't that bad, even though after that first group of nine...I had yet another group of nine to seat in the exact same place. The problem is that Sunday nights are rarely this busy, ergo they only had two people, including myself, on the floor and one on the counter, so one guy got half, and I got the other, far larger half. Lucky new guy, eh? But, the tips weren't too bad, but only on account of the sheer volume of people and by no means a testament to my undying dedication to service and concern for the well-being of the customers.
*coughprickscough*
In other news, I am also simultaneously co-chairing a committee that is creating a newsletter for my pre-med organization (MAPS) and after much sleep-deprivation-induced paranoia and freneticism (and a few ill-conceived sarcastic emails designed to be as condescending and demanding as possible) I finally have 4 articles, 1 soon-to-come (I friggin' hope) article, and 1 resignation not only from the newsletter committee but from MAPS as well (no, it had nothing to do with me), which brings us to a 57% turnout, and potentially a 71% turnout, of all people promising articles. The other two co-chairs, the editor, and myself are meeting tonight after 8 in the SSTRIDE center in the COM to compile this mess.
I haven't seen any of my shows from last week (with the exception of Heroes). Those include: TDS (Monday-Thursday), TCR (Monday-Thursday), House (Tuesday), Fringe (Tuesday), Bones (Wednesday). Some of these may be repeats or non-existent due to the fact that Fox likes to put shit (election coverage, sports events) on during the times that my shows are playing.
Oh, by the way, I haven't gotten my absentee ballot, so if someone could vote for Jack Bauer/Tony Stark for me, I'd be forever indebted to you.
Seriously.
They're represtenting the Ass-Kickery and Name-Taking Party.
Their platform is primarily in the area of kicking ass and taking names. |

..I'm anemic royalty
I'm a liar and a thief
I'm anemic royalty
But I can't sleep for serious. I've already cleaned out my side of the room of trash and recyclables that have been accumulating over the past two weeks or so. I'm watching mediocre horror movies on HBO2 (Thirteen Ghosts ftw) and drinking coffee. They let me go early from work this morning (about 1:45 instead of 4:00) as Thursday nights/Friday mornings are weird and can be busy/not busy quite quickly and easily. I pity the fool who has to work Halloween night. I can only imagine the type of debauchery that will be brought on by a combination of idiot college students, alcohol, and centuries of tradition and urban legend.
"Who are you to play God?!?!"
Mwahahahahahahaha!!!
Wtf, no more people getting killed by being folded in half, mmkay Hollywood? |

In Los Angeles
Like an evangelist
I can introduce you to your maker
Bring you closer to nature
Ashes after they cremate you bastards
Hope you been reading your psalms and chapters
Paying your tithes being good Catholics
- Lucifer - Jay-Z
Wow, no updates for a while, yeh? (btw, I actually do say "yeh" in lieu of "yeah" sometimes, just as I say "ma" in lieu of "mom" sometimes. I have....strange affectations)
Anyway. I've been working at the diner for my three overnight shifts and it's been going alright. Nothing else of import has occurred really. My family came for Parent's Weekend and that was interesting. My backache has returned (while I was running too, wtf?). I am now a co-chair of a committee that is creating a medical newsletter for my Pre-Med organization. I get up in three and a half hours to start my busiest day of the week and I'm not ready for stuff because I've been so damn busy with Parent's weekend and the meeting on monday night, not to mention the bullshit that is my Trig class (that I seriously shouldn't have to take, I mean, it's just wrong) that I've been studying for.
Bodysnatchers is a good song.
As is American Boy.
I have a rough two years/rest of my life ahead of me. |

There was a disturbing, and simultaneously hilarious, internet/real world crossover today. I was waiting for Bio Lab to begin and I'm talking about my pre-med forum of madness and then I'm sure some WoW reference slipped in.... So what ends up happening is that I start stretching my legs and I say, without thinking, "Plus one agility!" and then the surrounding collection of what few people would understand that begin howling. "I'm a level 60 Bio Major. I'm thinking about respeccing at level 61. Maybe a Resto Druid." Someone suggested a Ret Pally through fits of laughter.... Man, I haven't played in a while and it still lingers *snicker*.
WOTLK FTW!
....we hope >.>
