Allo mein twisted monsters

nearly 5 in the morning and full of coffee and reading discordian mantras in the form of strange blogs I have to say that I'm feeling pretty good. I ought to do something creative to get my mind moving. finding inspiration is a little difficult; like unzipping a fish. If nothing else I can unlock the doors of this place and dump all the cobwebs out of my brain.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!

Some jackasses can't take a hint.

I'm at work, my cell phone rings, and I answer.

THEM: "Hi, I'm from the company that warranties your car. Did you know your warranty has expired?"
ME: "I am not interested in anything you are selling, Goodbye."

*click*

10 seconds later the same phone number rings me back. I answer and start talking before they can start.

ME: "What part of 'I'm not interested' don't you get?"

*click*

Amazingly they call back a third time about 2 seconds later. They rush to get their foot in the door.

THEM (obviously upset and hurried): "Sir, I'm not selling anything! I just wanted to make sure you knew that your warranty has expired!"
ME (choking on my own rage) : "I know my warranty expired. Your company sent me 4 post cards explaining that is was expired and tried to sell me a new warranty. The warranty I got with my car wasn't very good and the renewal warranty was even worse PLUS it cost me money. I didn't reply to any of the mail you sent me and I've hung up on you TWICE! What makes you think I care about my warranty AT ALL?!

(this person then said something unthinkably stupid)

THEM: "So you are aware that your warranty has expired? Would you like to renew it?"

(at that point an aneurysm burst in my head and I died)

Aimlessly Adrift

Once in a while
perhaps at great length
I'm given to dither with prose

I scribble and doodle
with stanzas and stout
But none of it good I'll disclose

A purposeless life
is a ship without rudder
Its actions are float, drift or sink

A directionless journey
with no destination
Leaves its crew little recourse but drink

Through the fog and the rain
they keep at their tasks
Though the fear darkened night keeps them wailing

but a light they will find
and somewhere to dock
so long as they've will to keep sailing

to redouble their grip
is the core of their craft
if they want to leave their location

but starving for options
they're left little choice
as they've been pressed to their current vocation

no matter the ship
no matter the crew
we've all a journey to make

either make a choice
on where you would go
or it'll be made inspite of your sake

Jobness

I am obviously less than diligent about updating this.

I heard back from Toyotetsu. They offered me a job for not enough money to move to a place I'd rather not live.

Go Daddy offered me a job for a ton of money to live in the desert which I took.

I am now in the AZ with everything I want except all my friends and family. I'm very excited about the job and I think I'll be able to do okay at it.

I really miss everyone. It really sucks being so far away from the people I love.

Fuck and now fuck it.

You can't care about every damn thing. We'll see how shit shakes loose. I gotta watch my money but fuck i gotta have fun and eat or I'll go bug shit crazy.

Unisys liked me but didn't think I was up to the task; an all to frequent sentiment. I have some responce back from Bonneville Power Admin in portland OR. We'll see if that flies. Steve still has a space on his team but I don't think he wants me since I turned it down a month and half ago.

Fuck it.

FUCK!

I get unemployment but next to nothing. Barely enough to live indoors. That doesn't count food. This fucking blows. Best I can tell I'll have 160ish dollars to eat every month. About 5 bucks a day.

The only hope I have is that the time I spent on unemployment counts and that "they" forgot to count that.

I'm really glad I have savings

Harry Potter abortion

So I had a series of dreams last night that involved the Harry Potter universe. It started with a version of me that wasn't very much like me at all at hogwarts and spun out from there. I realized that there was plenty of material there for a roleplaying game. Various schools of magic, teachers, rivals, houses, spells, and an interesting environment to set stories in. I thought about restricted or lost libraries containing powerful lore as well as forgotten rooms of mysterious purpose. Throw in Dark wizards, evil plots, the forbidden forest, the nearby town, wand creation and augmentation, classes and exams.

Then the whole thing was ruined. I realized that I would have to put in rules for qudditch.

fuck
