Small Update

Note to self.... Five days off work = one messed up sleep schedule. I got perhaps 4 hours of sleep last night, finally passed out sometime between 5:30am and 6:00am.... Was awake at 9:30am and wasn't able to go back to sleep.

Needless to say, caffeine was my friend this morning.... two caffeinated mints before I even got in the shower. Which equates to 200 mgs of caffeine. Which is nothing compared to my gaming abuse... I get told that I'm suicidal when I abuse myself in the name of gaming.

Anyways... Contemplating buying Team Fortress 2.... a $10 game that is a fad among some of my friends. Bloody FPS. Why do I have friends that like these things when I so clearly don't, and why the hell do I want to play FPS in order to game with friends?

Bleh.... Can't fault a person for bad tastes.... I mean hell, look at my exes. (and yes, that can be taken two ways.)

So after four or more years out of gor aside from the odd dabble to spar some time more then three years ago, I find myself tempted to enter the realm again.

Not something I've had the temptation for in a very long time, and even after some minor, short lived roleplay, am not sure how strong that temptation is.

I suppose were I to play it smart, be a small playing member in a home, avoid owning slaves, stay out of the big stuff, and just coast through, I'd be fine.... After all, you can't neglect a slave if you don't own one, right?

I ended up slapping together some old images I had of Corey Taylor, ones that were hand-cut from a music video no less. Gotta love one of a kind images... They look so special when you butcher them into a craptastic avi.

WoW is still boring, something that I find a great disappointment. However what else is new? I'll coast a month or so wasting my money on it month after month before getting the urge and shredding to level 80 so fast people will wonder if I ever left.

Ok, maybe not -that- fast.... but fast enough.

The closer it comes to march, the more I look forward to the move, and hope I have the finances for it. I'm going to have to find a way to clean the apartment of the stains before it is shown. Stains left from water on the bedroom floor, and sir-pukes-a-lot spilling a beer or two in the living room. I'm thinking soap and paper towel... Or simply hire a maid service for a day, that works too, right? Will have to call and get price quotes, maybe do it in february.

Vincent needs to have his balls removed. That will be first or second pay in january, depending on cost and commission.

In truth, I may do all the pertinent stuff first pay in february, and all the moving stuff last pay in february, and pay rent first and second pay in march (to Rebecca, not my current land lords).
So you may be wondering why no mention of the holidays.... Well, that's because I already mentioned them in the previous post.... "bah humbug"..... I don't celebrate christmas, this is the third year I haven't celebrated it, which stands to reason that this would mean I have officially hit a habit.

This past weekend I was supposed to run a WoD mortal game, a zombie appocalypse in barrie with four players. It fell through, le sigh. Kinda disappointed in that.

I'm debating internally what to do about work. On one hand, I could approach Carol and tell her to review my medical records before coaching me on after call for termination. On the other hand, I could wait until it actually happens for me looking around for 10 seconds in after call while I let my blood pressure and anxiety fall, and then rub it in her face.

Of course, someone has brought into the equation that I could always sue them if they terminate me for reasons already laid out in my medical documentation..... How well -that- would go over, I don't know.... I've no doubts if they fired me for use of aftercall, with one refused coach, and one coach saying, "I have medical documentation for this"... that the peer review board would overturn such a decision quickly. I also have few doubts that due to depression, anxiety, and stress levels, that I'd be in my rights to legal action if they did fire me.

Who knows. *shrugs*

There's plenty of stuff going on in my life, nothing severe or unique. Merely "there" right now. This isn't a time I'd normally write an entry with so little happening, however I'm bored. So there you have it.

Peace out,

The Zodiak.

P.S.

House M.D. is hilarious.
