I just finished left-over wedding cerveza number 9 or 10 during project maui iphoto (for idvd integration later on) pacing. Boda vid + photos after effects project will commence multiple days from now OR maybe tomorrow.
Life is good boys if you make it so even through the fog.
I have been officially unemployed since the 9th and should I be worried?
Bills say yes but employent history yells otherwise. I will have work. Money will come in. Just not for the next few weeks. Dough is on sandfall mode. Will I ever settle in a career? someday.
Been a night owl since way back. Most work gets done while most are sleeping. Enjoy the nocturnal ease of functioning unless employment hooks onto early morn functionality.
No clue… the Late Night thread has been around longer, but who knows? I haven’t really looked in the Lounge, but I guess I should take a look… maybe if I still can’t fall asleep I’ll browse through it, otherwise it will have to wait until later.
I’m part of this funeral detail now and I have had practice all week, and a funeral on Saturday… I don’t mind it too much, but it sure is a pain in the ass getting the weapons every morning and transporting them and so on and so forth.
Speaking of detail, I got a week left in Qatar, and when i get back to the states I’m going to try and get the billeting detail again, like last year. I got 4 1/2 months left anyway.
It’s actually not that bad… while on the detail I’m off all the staff duty rosters. Not like I do shit anyway anymore - I leave early everyday and sometimes I don’t even show up. First Sergeant is my first line supervisor now, and my command is pretty much leaving me alone. If I choose not to go to work, hell, I don’t have to go and I never really get into any trouble. I don’t even go to any training anymore unless I’m giving the class… I just stroll into the orderly room and sign my name on all the sign in sheets and go home.
Although getting into the shit I got into was bad, it definitely made my job easy. No longer am I in command of a platoon, no more soldiers to worry about, no nothing. It’s great. The funeral detail actually gives me something to do that makes me look like I’m busy all the time.
Army Details, can certainly be better than your actual job. It’s kind of retarded, but I’m not complaining. For me with 4 months left I don’t know what else they’d have me do too, there’s nothing left for me to do but rush my ACAP.
The stigma of billeting or the mail room, is a shitbag job. Which it’s not, but that’s the understanding people get about it. I just volunteer for it, cause everyone that works in it, or has worked in it, agree it’s the best jobs they’ve had in the military on base. :lol:
Anyways, I bought an $800 94 Honda Civic EX coupe in July… spent some money fixing it up, now I’m selling it for $1500. I made about $400 on it… and then I’m using the money to buy my friend’s 94 Mazda Miata. It has a new soft top, new 18" rims, lower mileage… a damn good trade I got here.
If I can keep trading up like this, hopefully I will end up with a new car!
I’m going to buy me a car by the end of the year.
I’ve been a cheapskate for long enough, I’ve come up with a lot of money while being in the Army. I think Im good to go and well off for a lil bit, just on my bank account alone. So I;ll have plenty of options.
Google: Zelda Parallel Worlds.
Gonna try and finish this shit before I get back to the states, cause I doubt i’ll play it then.
I forgot where it said it, but dude said it took like 4 or 5 years.
That’s crazy. I feel like I got to play it, because I liked Link to the Past back in '92, and cause someone possibly threw their life away to make a free game for everyone.
Nothing to say…but have the need to post in this thread because I’ve lost my mind staying up past 3am with class tomorrow. I envy those that can sleep whenever they want to.
I will say I for some reason have been predicting when I will altogether no longer post on srk. Just bored I guess…
