I had to seriously sit down this morning… erm, tonight, and ask myself this question: What day is today?
I couldn’t quite figure it out! I had to look! You see, I had another overnight shift. I went in at 8 PM yesterday and came out at 5 AM. I was in bed well before 8 AM and just woke up an hour ago. At four. Can you even? And it was my second one in a week! So yeah. I am a bit confused. I drank a cup of coffee while contemplating cooking dinner. The sun was setting as I made my bed (why’d I bother with that?). Not to mention the poor cats feeding schedule. I am sure they are kinda pissed.
The best part was coming home this morning tho. As I came into the house, Richard was just waking up to get ready for work. We were clearly on totally different planets. Poor thing, all bleary eyed and confused and here I come all hyped from my day… erm, night at work. Heh. Yeah, we bickered.
Well, I guess I should shower and start my day night!
I recorded this thing sooo many times this week. I think my first Thanksgiving effort was an hour long. From there it shrunk each time I re-did it. The iPod recording device totally sucks ass. Sorry. In other news, I get to talk about my meal, my day, and what I’m thankful for. I say ‘blessed’ a lot too. Odd, cause I am not a religious man, but I do feel blessed. Heh. Whatever. It’s a short one. I need to get my groove back after shooting so many blanks…
MOKCHEON, South Korea - The compound - part boot camp, part rehab center - resembles programs around the world for troubled youths. Drill instructors drive young men through military-style obstacle courses, counselors lead group sessions, and there are even therapeutic workshops on pottery and drumming.But these young people are not battling alcohol or drugs. Rather, they have severe cases of what many in this country believe is a new and potentially deadly addiction: cyberspace…. They spend at least two hours a day online, usually playing games or chatting. Of those, up to a quarter million probably show signs of actual addiction, like an inability to stop themselves from using computers, rising levels of tolerance that drive them to seek ever longer sessions online, and withdrawal symptoms like anger and craving when prevented from logging on.
Today has been a pisser. First, I woke up too early. I didn’t wake up naturally. I had set my alarm wrong because I didn’t know when I had to go to work. Talk about starting the day on the wrong foot! I went back to bed, but it wasn’t the same. work was not bad, but my generally shitty mood effected my whole day. I came home to cat barf on the rug again and had a fit about it. The cats chew on my artificial centerpiece till they eat plastic and vomit. I find vomit too often. The centerpiece looks like hell now. I tossed the thing out finally. I actually had a complete fit about it. Coming home to a house that smelled like cat shit and stepping in barf and finding something destroyed made me snap inside. I missed the interview call, or she didn’t call. I am not sure, but there was no message on the machine and the phone didn’t ring. To top it off my new mic for the iPod recording doesn’t make a bit of difference in the car, even though I tested it yesterday in the car with the radio on. I have no idea why it won’t work, but it’s not the speakers. Must be the noise, but how the hell do other people record in a car?? That totally pisses me off.
Friday the Thirteenth was so horrid I almost don’t want to document it. I was in a very bad mood. Everyone was uncooperative. The public annoyed me. Things seemed to take forever. I received bad service. No one seemed to know how to drive.
Huh. Now that I think about it, it sounds just like a lot of days. Never-mind.
