Ummmm UPDATE!

So let's see here. Some significant stuff has gone down, and I'm not quite sure where to start with all of it. Let's see here. In the beginning, Daniel is no more. I'm not quite sure what went down with that, but one second he's talking totally great game and the next? Poof! His ass is out. STILL haven't heard a peep from him and it's been two weeks. So...yeah I still haven't decided what to feel about that. I'm not sure if I mentioned it, but Frank is married now. He's officially Frank Kelley of Los Angeles, so I guess that's a good thing but it still makes me feel raw, so I'm not going into it.

I started my new job at GMMB last week and it was very, very interesting. It's a complete 360 switch from my current job at DOL. For one thing, it's not the federal government, so that means we get to cut through all the bullshit upfront, and I'm not dealing with the beaucracy and shit, but at the same time, there's a completely different atmosphere. It's very quiet. Surprisingly. It's eerily quiet and people are always about their business there. It's like when they stop to talk to you at their lunch break, their always constantly moving back towards their desk, scooting their bodies away with their heads turned in your direction as not to appear disrespectful so they can get back to work. They're all Democrats as well, which is interesting. Here in ODEP, everyone's a Republican. You even act like you're gonna say Obama's name, and it's like Scar from the Lion King when Mufasa had been killed and he was the new ruler. Bitch slapping everyone around like it wasn't shit. Emotionally anyway. Speaking of which, the work there is very mentally intense. Which is way different from DOL as well. The work here can vary from simple mundane stuff to interesting and creative, where as what I've dealt with at GMMB is very research oriented and requires a lot of looking, and cutting and it's just different. I spent seven hours looking at Condoleeza Rice's face as I was coming up with a biography for her. But I can honestly say I have a lot more respect for her.

So my Xbox had died a few weeks back, (the red rings claimed it) and I sent it to Microsoft to deal with, and they supposedly did and sent it back to me, much to my delight which I celebrated with Too Human and Rock Band, but to my dismay I found out that it wasn't actually fixed at all, as the disc keeping skipping and the lazer won't read past a certain point. So it's broke. Again. I'm so pissed about that. Microsoft is getting on my nerves with this shit. Has the Playstation ever broke? Past the first time when it fried? Nope. But the Xbox, this is my third time dealing with this, and it's ridiculous. But I'll have to wait another two weeks before I can enjoy the pleasures of Too Human, I suppose.

To top that off, my laptop is also now finally dead. I couldn't get it to maintain a charge any longer, and it just died over the weekend. So I'm totally bummed about that, but my dad found me a good desktop replacement via Lenovo and so I got a computer that would've been 750, for 400. But it won't arrive for another three weeks. So bummer to that too. It seems like everything is breaking down.

But in all of this, I invited CJ up this weekend (and paid for the train ticket) so I'm looking forward to seeing him on Friday and I think we'll have a really good weekend coming up. I just gotta figure out what we're gonna do.

P.S. I wanna knock that Palin bitch the fuck out for calling Obama a community organizer. BITCH! What the fuck do you know about anything? Not SHIT! Alaska is on the edge of the known world. They don't even operate on our levels of economy or family values (where the consent age is 16) so it doesn't make any kind of sense for her to saying what she's saying. I hope to God the Democrats mop the floor with these bitches come November. I can't stand listening to their bullshit.

P.P.S. Damn I almost forgot. Shame on me.
