I Hate Traffic or Man, The Clone Wars was AWESOME!
Not a whole lot to update, but that doesn't mean I can't be long-winded about it! Yesterday I hung out with Rob, Matt, and Kostas for a while in the afternoon. I hadn't seen Matt in a while and got updated on a lot of things that have been going on with him. Not that much is going on with him, but still. We ate brownies and whipped cream, jalepeno potato chips, and other unhealthy snacks and played Baldur's Gate 2 for the PS2. All in all it was a typical day at Matt's which I hadn't done in a while. At night, Rob, Jay and myself watched "Rock and Roll Nightmare" which Jay loves and the complete series of the Star Wars Clone Wars cartoons. While "Rock and Roll Nightmare" was terrible save for the last 10 minutes, "The Clone Wars" was amazing all the way through. It almost makes up for the shitty quality of the 2 new movies. Scratch that, it more than makes up for them... it's that good. Filled with action, a great story, and plenty of killing it's what Star Wars SHOULD be. Lucas should have let those guys make the new movies because they rule. Then again, Lucas is officially insane so he would never do the right thing at this point.
I had to go to Future Shop today to pick up a CD binder, some jewel cases, and some more blank CD's. The traffic was unbelievable. I literally took me 10 minutes to get out of the parking lot alone. I used to hate working retail on Saturdays because of the volume of people and now I hate it for shopping. It seems like Saturday is just not a good day to leave the house during business hours.... Too many people..... argh!
I get to work a whole shitload next week. 41 hours! The good news is that some of those hours are time and a half. The Sunday holiday explains one and the fact that they begged me to do a double on Monday and I said only if I got Overtime rates to which they acquiesced. I totally held them for ransom! Tee Hee! I refuse to work double shifts under normal circumstances so they have to pay me more to do so. Another good thing is that Wednesday I have an 8 hour shift where my whole purpose for being there is to help out a truck driver who can't life things over 20 pounds. Essentially I just ride around in a truck all day and help him with a couple of pick ups. Other than that, it's literally NO work. My paycheck for the 30th of April is gonna be sweet. I'll finally have some money! Yay! I should probably save it though....
Was that long winded enough for you?
