The "How Was Your Day?" Thread

[ChaosVortex]

I checked out his Myspace account to look into his stuff. He lists a bunch of info (like gender and location). One of them is his occupation.

"Occupation: living"

It's been SO depressing. I can't stop thinking about him. I want to talk to him so bad.

Also, his funeral is this Saturday, and both me and Annie are going to attend.

I've been playing a ton of Shadow Complex today...I really love this game. I'm not sure where I am in the story, but I'm having a lot of fun playing it. I hope that Chair can one day wrestle away the rights to Advent Rising so they can finish the story one day.

I've also downloaded Secret of Monkey Island: SE, Castle Crashers, and Battlefield: 1943.

Came back from my Grandma's for New Years.

Had a great time. Got to see some family members I haven't seen in at least two years now.

[Johncarllos]

Just got back from new years stuff.
tired as all hell, I was hallucinating while driving down the highway.

Did I mention that the entire northeast is in the middle of a blizzard?
yeah. fun.
not.

anyways still hallucinating from sleep deprivation and over 10 hours of driving today.
night.


wait...

morning?

[preventerWIND]

Noon!

My new years went weird. Some fam drama went down but I ended up making it to a party and getting smashed. Straight Vodka is an acquired taste. And I have not acquired that trait very well..

[AlexThePenguin]

I reconnected with an old friend for New Year's, and had a small party with wine coolers.

I like wine coolers. <3

[Mikero]

Nerrrd.

[ChaosVortex]

I'm not trying to make this post depressing so forgive me if it is:

Tomorrow (technically today in the next 12 hours) I'm going to the before mentioned funeral of my friend. I'm kinda looking forward to it because I want to see him one last time.

Just because of this, 2010 is starting off so weird for me, but in the end I know everything's going to be alright. This kind of thing is still a celebration over a person, so I'm going to be as optimistic as I can.

[ASR]

It sucks hardcore when friends get killed by automobiles. Represent!

Sitting in an airport right now, got 3 hours to kill before our flight back home. Glad they have free Wi-Fi. I know the Detroit airport doesn't. Props, Ft. Lauderdale!

Cruise was fun. New Years was great. My New Years resolution was to not swear for an entire year, but literally 5 seconds after the clock struck midnight, I shout "F*** YEAH 2010!"

So, yeah.

Not very good at that.

Oh, and I am severely embarrassed to be sittingi n a public place with Chaos' Yu-Gi-Oh avatar clearly visible to everybody right above where I'm typing.

[ChaosVortex]

It's extremely goofy and weird and that's why it's there.

[Johncarllos]

And a picture of you as greenman isn't?


Unrelated: I've never been in an airplane that is flying. Ever.

[ASR]

Okay, what. Really? I guess I've just been on so many that somethng like that is really hard to imagine. And I know, I've heard of people like that before so it's not the first time I've had to imagine, but... just... I mean, what is there to really do in Maine?

[Johncarllos]

be too poor to buy plane tickets

[ASR]

I keep forgetting I'm Jewish.

[AlexThePenguin]

Okay, what. Really? I guess I've just been on so many that something [sic] like that is really hard to imagine.

I'm actually the same way. When I was little, my grandparents lived halfway 'cross the country, so plane travel was a yearly or semi-yearly event, and I got used to it.

I'm not sure how we did it, unless my grandparents paid for the tickets.

[ChaosVortex]

I cried today.

It was a good day.

[Johncarllos]

Good to hear!
I suppose that means the funeral went well

[ChaosVortex]

Yeah. It was good.

I still won't be over it for a while, but it's all good.

[Mikero]

Crying is apparently good for you.

[ChaosVortex]

It is actually.

[ASR]

According to Facebook, Jake is having cutesy conversations with a friend of mine that I barely talk to anymore and yet he DOESN'T HAVE TIME FOR US.

HE DIDN'T EVEN CHECK HIS BIRTHDAY THREAD.

[ChaosVortex]

He has enough time to continue a poke war with me.

[Winged Warrior]

YESTERDAY WAS AWESOME.

I totally woke up coughing! Expelling yellow phlegm from my system!!!

As I stagger around the house to try to do my  normal activities, I get a knock on the door. Believe it or not, it wasn't the police (though I could have used the music). My power-cord from china had finally made it over here to America land, and thus i was able, for the first time in two months, get my laptop running!

I'm still rather sick, but now I'm sick with a computer~.

[preventerWIND]

I found the cure for the common cold if you're interested.

Sleep in a freezing room and work out at the gym for two hours. No, it's not sarcasm. I am now devoid of the sick.

[Winged Warrior]

I get sick, only for the common cold.

Normally my immune system can take damn near anything...

...but the common cold.

[ASR]

It sucks to get into the habit of performing stand-up weekly and then suddenly NOT get to do it for almost a month.

It's like plugging up a hose: the water keeps pumping and everything gets backed up, priming for an explosion. The water in this example is new material I want to try out.

The hose is my weiner.

[Snare]

EW ALEC THAT'S SICK.

[Majikn]

the hammer is my #####

[Mikero]

EW ALEC THAT'S SICK.

Yeah stand up comedians are so gre-he-heasy!

[AlexThePenguin]

Woke up feeling okay, drank a Sierra Mist, started to feel sick. Passed it off, figuring it was just my system reacting to the first edible contact of the day.

Went shopping, got food. Had some blackberries and part of a Bawls.

Got home, made OJ, sat down. Started to feel kind of rumbly, so I cut up part of a sandwich, started nibbling on it. Felt a little bad, so I poured some orange juice and sipped at it, then felt better.

I poured my Bawls into my OJ, and sipped that.

Immediately felt like something my cat puked up.

Three hours later, I was vomiting after several involuntary attempts.

I made a brew of cinnamon, apricot tea, nutmeg, and a little clove. It was delicious, and it helped at first, but then I threw that up within half an hour of drinking it.

Still kind of going on.

I've thrown up everything I've eaten today.

I feel the same will happen if I eat anything.

I'm feeling rather dizzy.

[ChaosVortex]

WHO WANTS CHOWDER!?

[preventerWIND]

My immediate assumtion is that you guys drink nothing buy Mountain Dew and Bawls (thanks to Ray!), try drinking some water..

[Winged Warrior]

I've started cutting soft-drinks out of my diet...

Started drinking juice/milk/water instead...

[Vinchenz Rock]

be right back going on an air plane

doot doot doot

[ChaosVortex]

I've started cutting soft-drinks out of my diet...

Started drinking juice/milk/water instead...

Yeah, after Opal's throw up deal about being dehydrated, I think I should get on that too.

[Johncarllos]

I drink seltzer water like it's my job.
I gotta pee like every hour though.

[Mikero]

Why would anyone want to drink seltzer?

[AlexThePenguin]

My immediate assumtion is that you guys drink nothing buy Mountain Dew and Bawls (thanks to Ray!), try drinking some water..

Actually, I drink only water at work. Occasionally, juice, too. The soda was among the first I'd had in a while. I've cut caffeine out for the most part (aside from naturally-based caffiene, like chocolate or tea or the very occasional coffee). The Bawls was a mistake, but I bought it for nostalgia and didn't realize my error at the time.

[Fatso]

In the process of realizing why people often pay money to have their PCs put together for them. Doing the wiring was a major hassle, especially since there are like five fans to steer clear of in my case. It STILL looks like a disaster, even though I did manage to get the job done.

[Johncarllos]

I just made my computer Godzilla themed.

Sounds, wallpapers, window colors and such.

[ChaosVortex]

That slightly makes me want to make my computer Sinistar themed.

[Johncarllos]

It's easy, with Windows 7!

I have like 8 themes.
I change them depending on what my second monitor is, and it's position, or what I feel like having for wallpapers or sound effects or window colors or whatnot.

[ChaosVortex]

Of course, being the dork I am, I really want a Mega Man theme.

But my computer is garbage, slow, and not worth the time.

[TheOnly]

So to kick start my day so far around 4am today,I was still wide awake because I was very sore from the gym 2 dys ago and then before I knew it, BAM! An earthquake came up and about. It was kindda fun too.

[Johncarllos]

Earthquakes sure are fun.

[ChaosVortex]

 

[preventerWIND]

LOOK AT HOW MUCH FUN THEY'RE HAVING!



That one guy must have spilled his cherry flavored beverage on one of the roller coasters!.. Don't think I don't feel bad for making a joke like that, I'll be the first to admit that I'm an asshole.

So, I got a job, went for training, employer (who's a really cool guy) said I stood out from the rest of the newbies and praised me, the work is easy and enjoyable, hours, co-workers and everything are perfect. I'm gonna go far in this place. I am happy.

Having a bit of a breakdown concerning my close friends though. I dismiss it as angst, but I ain't gonna pay it no attention.

[TheOnly]

At least you ADMIT it, others kill you for even saying so -.-''

EDIT: Finding work is hard these days, I have friends complaining that they no jobs and stressing out because of it.

[AlexThePenguin]

I'm making my boss a website!

I'm waiting for Dreamweaver to finish downloading. It's very boring on my boss's very slow computer. Up to a moment ago, it was still flashing 1:12 (hour:minute) every other update.

Now, it's no higher than 38.

This should be interesting.

[Johncarllos]

I'm single!

But it's swell, still friends. Just a mutual thing.
