Well Monday wasn’t very exciting, I woke up around 05:00 and was up for a little bit then went back to sleep, got up around noonish and got my allergy shots and got some food. Came home, sat around for a bit, watched the movie Darkness on PPV. It was ok, had the same layout as several other “horror” movies from the past few years, such as doing scenes by date, such as Monday.. then Tuesday and so forth somewhat like the Ring.
I got on FFXI for a few minutes today, no one was on so eventually just watched that movie. I finally just passed out and woke up about 00:45, I beleive my vonage line woke me up with someone calling, after waking up and logging on to my vonage account I see it was another person calling about that stupid satellite crap, somehow some company has their billing department listed under my number so I get a crapload of calls about it.
Pretty much been sitting here working on my blog some, most of it was with backend stuff and plugins. I was on aim for a bit but Gina wasn’t on, I’ve been checking every so often but she’s not gotten on.
I came across this entry someone made on their blog, I had been looking at some plugins and ended up there. The entry cracks me up due to this little outtake:
Me: “Where’s the bar?”
Undergrad dude: “There is no bar.”
Me: “…”
Me: “Where’s the bar?”
Undergrad dude: “There is no bar.”
Me (in my head): “It is only your mind that drinks.”
Me (out loud): “Perhaps I’m not making myself clear, or perhaps, being under the age of twenty-one, you are unfamiliar with the ‘bar’ concept. I am interested in obtaining alcoholic potables in some quantity. Whence might such libations be procured?”
Undergrad dude (out loud): “?”
Undergrad dude (in his head): “Jackass grad students. I can’t believe we always have to ask for funding from the GSC.”
Me: “?”
Undergrad dude: “…”
Me: “Peace.”
The part with the “there is no bar” … “It is only your mind that drinks.” was good (if you don’t get it, it’s from the Matrix where the kid is bending spoons with their mind but says there is no spoon so it is only your mind that bends..)
Then I kept reading and saw “Perhaps I’m not making myself clear, or perhaps, being under the age of twenty-one, you are unfamiliar with the ‘bar’ concept. I am interested in obtaining alcoholic potables in some quantity. Whence might such libations be procured?”
You may not find humor in that but I find it hilarious, mostly due to the fact that it uses “big words” such as “potables” and “libations” and “procured”. (big words for some, such as those who are not very well educated or those who might not have been english majors) Also the fact as this sounds like something that would be coming out of the mouth of Charles E Winchester the 3rd from MASH.
I’m wondering if Derkhan and Lestat received their Chocobo stickers I sent them, hopefully they did, I sent them Friday and I am sure they should’ve arrived by now, if not today at the latest. Unfortunately didn’t get to talk to my buddy Dhal today either which sucks. He started a new position today so he’s not online during the day anymore.
Eh I guess that’s about it, it’s late and I am sleepy again thanks to my meds plus I *should* be sleeping now anyway.
