Let me start this off with some good news. I got my flippin' wrist pad, ok so it doesn't really do any flips or any kind of tricks. but, it is new and it is mine.
It just boggles my mind what I had to go though just to get this wrist pad. And now I just swaped out keyboards. WoW go me. Ok this one is going to take a lil getting used to. Well, I guess not much time I seem to be on a roll right now.
So I started off going to wally-world. Man how I hate that place. The only time it seem to be ok is the 24 hours ones and go in around 3am. Then you go no one in there to bug you. Well I went around 4 in the afternoon. I just walked in and went "blah". The first thing I wanted to do when I walked in there was to do a 180 and walk back out. But, I didn't. So I walked around, found some new running shorts a new running shirt and some socks. Well I was off to a good start. Then I started looking for some new running shoes. Well...couldn't find any that I liked. Well that's strike 2, first one was just for going to wal-mart. Ok fine, I can find shoes some place else. So I went looking for a wrist pad, kinda like the one I got now. Humm...no luck. Well that's a flippin bitch. No biggie there's an Office De-Pot just down the street.
So I'm going to cut my losses and just leave with what I got in my lil blue carry basket. Well, up to the front of the store and I see all the people just waiting. So that's strike 3 or 4 now. I just put my basket down and walk out of the store.
I go to office depot and find just what I'm looking for. Even got an extra pad for my mouse. So it works. I ended up spending a little more than I wanted to on the two pads, but its been awhile since I spend any money on myself. Most of it has been going to the family or gas. So after office depot I drove my happy butt over to Mervyns, it's on the way home so it works. I found everything I was looking for, though it did cost a lil more than wal-marts. At least I didn't have to wait in any long ass lines. I even got the running shoes that I was looking for.
All in all. Spending money is fun.

Gotta do what you gotta do.
Posted by Joshua at 7:10 PM 4 Tasty Adult Beverages
yeah I know what I was going to say
It's funy, I think I look at my instant messengers or my cell phone about every 15 min. Just looking for someone I want to talk to, while not knowing who I want to talk to. So I just talk to my blog...wow kinda sad when you sit back and think about it. I guess I did it to my self, right? No one made me sit here. No one maybe me play Sim City 4 and get my butt kicked (hey, it was my first time playing and I went on a spending spree...totally not my fault). So I just turn to my blog and my music, got Creed playing now. Maybe I'll take a shower now. There are people that I wouldn't mind talking to, I just don't feel like bugging them. I don't know if they are working / sleeping / haning out with friends or what, seeing as they both work nigh shifts. Ohh scarry movie that I seen wayyyy back in the day was called Night Shift, I think it's a Stephen King movie not too sure though.
I still got more, a lot more, hemingway I could be reading. It just seems like I'd much reather just sit here and type this to who ever reads it. Kinda makes me wonder what I want out of this. What am I going to get out of it? Is someone going to read this and some how make all that ills me go away? yeah, I don't see that happening any time soon. So I guess that leave it up to me. I got to get what I want out of life. NOt like anyone is just going to hand my that head engineer job that I want. I guess nothing like that is going to happen with me sigting on my butt. Though, what's the big deal. not like anyting is open right now, remember the Compusa story...I just keep thinking of everything I want. I know things take time. I just hate wasting time. I don't even like wasting time at work.
lol it's funny. How much I don't really blog about the good things. Well I don't even blog about all that ills me (why do I keep saying "ils me"?)
well I guess I should just call it a night and what ever happens.....happens.

Tooooo Early
Blah, It's only 11:25 and I am getting tired. This is my weekend to do what ever the hell I want. Hell I didn't wake up till 10am, That was a good 12 hours of sleep I had. So it's Sat night and what am I doing. Sitting here at my computer posting another blog tonight. Hell it's two in a row. Well I did spin around a lil (Billy Idol -- rebble yell - live) and minnimaze and maximize my browser window a few times. Well I also went and found that code for that lil rock
Blah I got some stuff I wanna type out, just not too sure what the best way to get it out is. So I'll just do this and pretend that I'm typing what I want to...

Not open
So, I am on my way back from a friends birthday party. Well, her kids birthday parts. I was the BBQer for that most part. Just hamburgers and hot dogs for the most part. It was all fine and dandy.
So on my way back to the casa, I stopped down at my grandmama's. You know, to say "hi hi hi" and what not. So I'm there took a case of oil out of her trunk, and watched some TV in the living room. Well first I had to knock the TV upside the....Side of the TV. It's a lil old, and starting to mess up. The TV tube isn't working right all the time. Soon it's going to be time for a new TV.
Well I wanted to go there to find my car washing sponge, but that was no where to be found. I also wanted to get one of dem der oil drain cans (why don't I have my music playing...Just the hummmm of my fan...Much better). That way I can be a good person and take my used oil in to Auto Zone or one of dem der places.
Guess what I forgot at my Grandmama's. If you guessed the oil can thingy. You, my friend, would be right. I was already of the freeway on my way home when I remembered. Funny how that happens. You remember on the way to where ever you are going and you remember when you leave. But, what the hell happens when you are at the place. You start doing this or that and forget all about it. (I wonder what my cat is thinking just watching me from my window)
Well on the way home my plan was to go to Best Buy and get me a brand spanking new wrist pad for this here keyboard. Lets play the guessing game again. Lets see if you (the reader) can guess what best buy doesn't have. If you guessed the new Tool CD you'd be right, 'cause I don't think that's out yet. That wasn't what I was looking for though, so ha! They didn't have a wrist pad for me to buy. (Rocking out to Billy Idol now)
So, when I found out that best Buy didn't have what I was looking for. I walked my self on over to Compusa. It just takes a few min to walk there, only about 3 or shops down. I walked all the way there just to find out that they were flippin closed. So on my way back I thought to me self: "Self, I just have to blog about this". And so I did.
So I went back to the store known as Best Buy. Looked around some more for a flippin wrist pad, and no I didn't ask anyone. If they had it I would have found it. If they put the wrist pads in hiding, then it'd their own damn fault. I'll just get one the next time I go to wally-world. Oh the way back to Best Buy I walked right past office Max. That is when it came to me that wrist pads are part of office stuff. So I walked right into the sliding doors....Guess what, they were closed too. Ok, maybe I didn't walk all the way into them, but I did come close enough to look like a total idiot.
Damn, it seems me not getting my wrist pad is really messing up my night. (woohoo no one is home, now I can really crank up the music)

Stupid game
Yes, this is what my bloggin' has come to. Posting about a stupid game. So I got to this one level that I'm just stuck on. Well I guess if I took my time it'd be ok, but noooo....I go in there thinking I'm RAMBO, yeah it doesn't work to well. I don't got an M60 or low air to ground support.
and in a different note. I think I'm going to stop the idea of getting a site together for my family. The main reason that I wanted it was to post up my pictures from trips and what not. So, I've been looking around the first place I found was $23 / year for 300mb of pictures. That doesn't sound like too bad of an idea. It would be great if I had an eye for taking cool looking pictures, but nooooo....Not much of an art person. I guess it would be cheaper than being a car guy. I just need to make more money. That will do it. Fix all that is ill.
Well I guess it's time to eat some more left overs and watch a movie....yeah that's it.
Posted by Joshua at 9:57 PM 1 Tasty Adult Beverages
I want...
I guess it's time that I do another "I want" blog. I don't really know why I do this. I guess it kinda keeps me in the right mind set. Yeah, that sounds good. Well, lets see where this goes...
I want...
-a new ca....
blah I don't feel like doing this, it's just going to get me all bummed out thinking about everything I don't have. Though, I still want my wristpad for this keyboard. Maybe I should just shut up and watch a movie or play some more Call of duty 2. Hell, I want to go to another boat race. That was a good weekend. Ahhh the memories. Oh yeah I want a boat too and a bunch of car parts. More parts than I can name here. Well at least I got a car I can work on for a few (a bunch of) years.
I guess other than that, today went just fine.
Rock on!

The UnTitled blog
Ok so I was taking a shower. Just standing under the hawt water. Letting all that ills me rinse away. I standing in the shower is where I do my best blog thinking.
I got a feeling this blog post is going to cover a little of everything, So, stay seated and hang on for the ride. If you get lost there will be no map, and maybe no way out. Be sure to keep your arms and legs inside at all times, or else!
So I though about the idea about making a family website. I'm going to do it. Going to be (my last name).us on a cheap lil web host. The main reason for doing this is wanting to make a place to put all of the family pictures online for all to see. I know some other guys that have done this and I was going to ask them how its going. Seeing as they have been up for a few months now.
I could also write about this "mysterious friend" of mine. Though, I don't think this is the right place in time to drop all the info on that subject. Maybe later. If you want to read a story of a girl, here you go. That also happened to be posted the first day of where I am now working. Damn, how I have changed over the past months. Well I don't know if "changed" is the rite word. I think I'm still the same person. Just more grown up maybe?
Damn maybe I should just take the keyboard into the shower with me. 'Cause since I've sat down there doesn't seem to be as much to type about. Just a bunch of random thoughts. I just seem to be in a blah mood. Things for the most part have been going good. So I guess it's just a matter of time till something goes wrong. I remember thinking to my self "Damn, life is good..." A bunch of different times though out the past few years. And boy have there been some shitty times. Oh yeah. I remember what I was going to do...**goes back and edits** But you know what, there would be any good times if there were not any crappy times. So I guess it's good to have some of both. I'm just here sitting back thinking about ol' times.
You know one of the big things that people have been talking about the past few days was the Armenian genocide (wikipedia). They were talking to me about what I know about it, and this and that. Yes, I know about it. One of my replies to them was "I wasn't in it, I don't know anyone that was. It's good to know history, not so good to live in the past." typing it out like that, it sounds cold. I'm just not going to live my life today pissed off about something that happened back in 1915. If you can't tell I am Armenian, but I am American. Lets just learn from the past and move on. This doesn't just go for the Armenian genocide, but everything. Doesn't matter if you are white, off-white, black, brown, or poka-dotted. Live in the today, not X years ago.
I wonder if and of those last comments are going to piss anyone off. My guess if it does, you are most likely one of the people that need to move on.
I told ya when you started reading this post that it was going to go all over. And as you can tell, it did. I'm not too sure if you will learn anything reading this or if I'm going to be any better of a person for posting this.

Running thoughts
Well I went running again. At first I didn't plan on going running today. But, then I got pissed off at my brother (something that tends to happened when he's around me). So there I was running / jogging / some walking and rocking out to poison -- Nothing but a Good Time. Now, that's some music to go running too. Can't really go running a sappy love song or something like that.
Well I guess it's about time to give this a lil make over...

There is some hope
I find myself not caring as much cash on me anymore, cause just about evey place else will take some type of a card. Well not this place that I went to today for lunch. So I though to my self, "self, This aint no biggie. You'll just go down to the local stop-n-rob and pick up some bling bling." That is when the strangest thing happened to me....
wait for it...
...Wait some more....
The guy next to me said he'd get it. I went "woah! (well I thought that anyways) Really?" He said, "yeah, my good deed for the day." It's not like I didn't have money, just no cash. He still did it. I couldn't believe it. I found my self wondering if I'd do that for someone or just stand there any wait for my food in silence.
So, there is some hope left out there.

What a weekend
Ok where to start.
I spent the weekend out of town. Went to a boat drag race. That sounds simple enough, right. I was the pit crew for on of the guys out there. That was sooo cool. All it cost me was 2 tanks of gas, one going there and one coming back up. There is another race in 2 weeks. I can't wait.
I got there about 8pm friday night. Just in time for BBQ tri tip. oh it was good. I also had a few beers, nothing major. We'll get to the major soon enough. So that was the short and sweet to Friday.
I woke up around 7am on Sat. Though, I didn't roll out of bed till 8ish. I guess I should have gotten up earlier, but I didn't. So, my buddy's girlfriend was kinda showing me where I needed to go with the boat, and where to pick it up at. 'cause I was the one that put the boat in the water and took it out at the end of the run. Well as we are on the way back to the trailer. I got a phone call, I don't answer it cause I think it'd be kinda rude to be on the phone while she is showing me what I need to know. Well, my friend ended up calling me like 3 times in a row. So when I get out of the truck, with my phone rining again ;) I answer it this time. It turnes out to be a friend of mine from Las vegas. She ended up driving about 3 hours to meet me there. And I didn't even know if she was going to make it or not. in fact if I had to bet on it, I would've bet on her not making it down.
So yeah that was cool way to start my day off.
Saturday was just the qualifing runs for sundays race. So I got a good amount of pritice in backing up the boat and truck. Then It goes on to Sat night...yeah that was fun.
bad damn I need to go to sleep. so I'm just going to post this typos and all.

Bloggers Block
I think it's almost kinda totally sometimes pretty boring, this blog that I call mine. Seeing as my life seems to slowly be getting back on track (mental note: buy a wrist pad). I guess that's a good thing. It just leaves me with little to blog about. I'm not going to start blogging about what so-n-so did at work, or drama this and / or drama that. It's just not me.
You know what, I'm really starting to play of the idea of putting together a lil web site for my family. I know a few people that have done it. I'll upload some pictures from a few trips of mine. Though I just fear it being a waste of time. Hell, I think I'd have better luck just making a space about me for me. Oh wait, isn't that what that whole myspace.com is about? I mean it even has an "about me" section. whoopiedoo.
But really what would a do with my own domain and webspace. I already got access to all the server space I'd ever need. What can I do that's different than myspace.com? Well the only thing that really comes to mind is the ability to add more pictures. Well it's not like I got a lot of family who'd even view the site. So I guess I'm just talking my self out of it. So that seems to be more reason to not waste me time with it. Or that money that it would cost.
I don't even feel like trying to be a web developer anymore. I can't even think of anything I'd want to do. I don't want to learn anymore PHP. I don't want to learn anymore HTML, CSS, or anything else that is any kind of code. I spend too much time at the computer the way it is. I'd still like to get one of those lil RC race cars.
Damn, what is my point in this blog? I guess just random thoughts. Not like there's anything wrong with that. Maybe I should just leave this window open a lil longer. I still got a lil story to read, but I can always just make another post about that.
Humm...Now how should I end this post? I got to try something new. Something to be wanted. Something to b

I need a book mark
I just got done reading the first story in my book. All I can say is, "woah" I didn't end the way I thought it was going to at all. The story was called "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber". All I need now is a new book mark. So right now I'm just using a voided check, not like I use them for anything else anyways.
But woah, I can't wait to see what the rest of his stories are like.

Bloggin' Type
Your Blogging Type is Pensive and Philosophical |
You blog like no one else is reading... You tend to use your blog to explore ideas - often in long winded prose. Easy going and flexible, you tend to befriend other bloggers easily. But if they disagree with once too much, you'll pull them from your blogroll! |
Just wanted to repost this for ol' times.

Humm what if..
What if I started blogging different 'cause I know there are more people reading this. Nah, I don't think that would happen. Not like there is any reason for me to change now, I've already got six months worth here. I guess I'm not going to say anything that would offend anyone. Hell, if I do say something that I guess what's the big deal. It's not like I'm making anyone read this. What the Sam Hell, I don't even have a point with this shenanigan.
Though, I think the 5 hours of sleep plus ten and ahalf hours of work plus one hour of lunch is really not working out too well right now. I bet I'll be asleep early tonight. Gee Golly I even turned MSN and what-not on to invisible. Not like anyone really messages me anyways, just don't want to have anyone bug me in my state of blah.
Well my book came in the mail today. I might read the first story just for the hell of it. See what it's like. See if I feel any better in my tummy. Though, I'm not too sure how a book can help that. Who knows.
Oh yeah I got to find a link to that test for some friends of mine. I think I'll have to find it here on my very own blog (after I post this), then go molest their MySpaces. Yeah, now that sounds like a plan.
Click here for a good time!

Easter Sunday
today was a good day, as Easter Sunday should be. The day started off with me waking up around noontime. Checked my e-mail and myspace. Yeah, I know I am now a myspace junkie.
*ahhhhhhh!!!!!lskdklsdjfsdjklfdd --- sorry this is from a different conversation Now back to my bloggin'*
Yeah, I've found a few old friends of mine. Even some people that I used to go to school with, all the way back in high school. So that's cool and all. About 2ish I headed down to my Grammy's. Just had a little get together down there. I was the lucky one that got to BBQ the steaks. Oh they were good. Had some baked potatoes. Those were good too. I even got a bag of cookies from there. Ahh good stuff. Well, that was how most of it went. I'll be kind on leave out my brother throwing one of his pissy moods out there. I think I should make this font yellow or something.

deja vu
So tonight (friday night) was different fo sho.
It started right after work. I just went accross the street and had a few beers. Not much 'cause I had to drive. And drinking and driving is bad. So after we closed them down Myself and a few others headed over to another co-workers house. So while at his house we had pizza and beer. Beer can make the worst dilvery pizza taste like it was home cooked just for you.
So I left there, and planned on going to a boobie bar. Well why not, I just wanted to go and see some boobies. Well anyways, on the way there I got this call from a friend of mine. Asking me if I wasnted to go out with her and some friends.
Well it ended up being a gay bar. so what ever, at least there is a good chance of me seeing hot chicks make out (if not more). So yeah I rocked out. had just one drink, and a water. So we closed that place down too.
all in all is was a good night.
it is now freaking early and I'm about to get some sleep

Not content
So where to start. Work? I guess.
so much went on at work. Now I just need to find a way to put it into a story. Oh I could just make up a story. Though what fun would that be....My guess is a lot. I think if I made up a story it would take away from the point of me having my lil part of the internet.
I guess We'll start from the end and work our way to the begging.
My job is too simple. I'm sure I could train phone answering monkeys to do my job. Yes, it's that easy. All I do is cut blinds, and drop them off. A few times a week we'll install them, but more often than not we don't. I just want to know so much more. I'm not fine just waiting around waiting for one of the supervisions to tell / ask me to do something else. I guess I should talk to one of the guys about that tomorrow. Just to let it be known that I'm not content staying there. I'm going to ask what the hardest thing that they do, then I am going to want to master that. From the sound of it. I think that would be working with wood flooring, I guess kinda do to the cost that comes with it.
ok so I took a short break to look up some books by: Ernest Hemingway. I think I might get a book of his short stories. Anyways...blog on.
So I guess what really left the bad taste in my mouth happened just before 3pm. I had found my self a lil job putting boxes away. I guess you could say it was a "bullshit job". I was working on it was 2 or 3 other people. Was almost done with it too. When I got pulled off, guess I should have known it was coming, to go drop off some blinds. Just had to drop them off, how simple is that. Anyone who can read this blog would be able to go and drop off the blinds. It's that easy. I don't know why it bugged me soo much, it just did. I'm even trying to pin point it to just one thing that set me off about it. I just can't. I guess it was just a Series of Unfortunate Events that lead to me to that point in time. But, what ever. Not like I can take it back. I still did it. I did it in a timely matter. So what if I didn't have a smile on my face. Nothing in the job hand book that says I much smile, or have a good mood, when I do my job. Just that it gets done and done right, and it was. However, here I am now blogging about it. Life goes on.
Now I think I'm going to buy my book.

And more yard work
Holy cow I'm tired. So I worked 9 hours. Something that I do 3 days a week, then I came home and did about 1.5 to two hours of yard work. Just been doing a bunch of weed wacking. LoL @ wacking!! blah. So yeah.
Other than that, I've been playing around with my myspace account some. Changed the colors and all that good stuff. Hell, I even blogged over there. Well it was stuff about myspace. There's not much point about blogging about myspace stuff here. Not like anyone would see it here that will then go to my myspace account. *idea* put a link to my myspace account here in the links section. I might just have to go and do that.

Yard work
YaY spring is here
that means more yard work for me. woohoopie do. So now I'm sitting here and I smell like grass. I got grass in my hair, in my ear...gross. on my shirt. Everywhere. Well at least you can tell that I did something out side. That's always a good feeling when you are done working and you can see a difference.
Well I guess I should take a shower.
