Eventfull day today! If you count all the petty things.
Started off by watching the remaining 2 episodes of Stargate season 7. You can tell that they were close to stopping the series at that point because of the rushed nature of it all. Very neat special effects, though. Also didn't evoke the same massive emotional response as the Masterpiece episodes, but set up season 8 and left room for a movie and hopefully some god damn GAME SPINOFFS. Not that I'm waiting for an X-Com type game with the Stargate stamp, or anything.
I could easily complain about how much work sucks, how stupid the Americans at work are, how lame the hardware is, how moronic some agents are, how useless the software is, how little we get paid, how horrible the hours are, how putrid the office is, how confusing the processes are, and how horribly some customer's get treated...but, after being unemployed for so long, I still prefer this delicious brand of large male bovine excrement to that horrible state of self-loathing uselessness.
Then I ended up back at this Place Where I Sleep, made some heart-burning cheese-rice, made a subtle mental note to subtly get Caitlin and her biological expertise to subtly explain to Shaerin that leaving dirty dishes in a sink full of water overnight is undesirable, and incovienient.
I watched El Mariachi in my underwear and was pleased to see that it was much better than Once Upon a Time in Mexico and displayed continuity with Desperado.
5:20, and still no beta email for World of Warcraft. It's entertaining the way that people will instantly change character ideas the second they hear about how 'amazing' one class is over another...especially at the beta stage. It's likely the heart-burn rice, but reading the WoW beta forums and listening to beta testers complain about the beta bugs and beta issues that are severly hampering their ability to beta play the beta game, gives me a burning acid feeling in my chest. Someone pointed out that it was beta and that beta bugs and beta issues were the whole point of beta testers testing the beta test, but the betards continue to beta post. Has someone already come up with "betards" or can I be clever?
Is it alright to start a sentence with a time like five twenty? Better to spell it over using actual numbers, probably. I was thinking of elaborating on this tangent but I keep hearing this TAP from either Shaerin's room, or the apartment above their room. It sounds like someone flipping a light switch, but it's not constant and doesn't have a pattern. It keeps interupting me and my fragile five-thirty-four in the morning thoughts.
I should get some sleep...afterall, I have to work tomorrow. Today is my half-weekend so I can sleep in! It's not really mine, I guess, since I have to share it, and it's really as much a weekstart as an end.
