My insanity deepends

You define "overweening ambition". o_O

I was supposed to move into an apartment with a friend of mine last week, after his old roommate moved out..

That sux :(

And on an unrelated note, I've really got to lay off of Tekken 6. Seriously, that game's going to give me a stroke.

What kinky game ^^

—————

So I went to a performance art exhibition yesterday… It wasn't too bad, but unfortunately the form it took meant it wasn't a very exciting spectator spectacle.

For people watching it had some upside: hipster overload. Gah!
Add to that a dose of genuine pretension.

I mean, people call things and people "pretentious" all the time, without ever using the word properly. Almost every time someone calls something "pretentious" it's because they either don't like it and/or feel inferior or left out. …but when you have minor artists and art students "dressing the part" and "talking the talk", it's pretty funny, and endearing ^_^
Especially when you've been there before yourself, so you know it inside out.

-special note: the pretension was limited to only a few of the of the attendees, not the majority, and not the performers or staff.

Shitstix. Pain intolerable. Can not sleep dammit!

Either I have a badly pinched nerv or I broke my arm, I'm not sure. I fell pretty badly in the kitchen, but didn't feel any pain then, but after drawing a while it got ne worse and worse… I can still move my ARM ok, there's just a spot if pain inside the bicep that is killing me right now!..

In only typing this cause its 2am, I can't sleep for crap because of the pain, and my phone is handy…

Make the f***ING pain go!

Wow… walked for 7.5 hours last night nearly nonstop at work. Had to spend the remaining 30 minutes and an extra 15 after that to write up my report before turning the thing in. Some of my coworkers gave it a quick read and then deemed me "insane". Apparently walking for that long without sitting down and relaxing your feet is something that freaks them out. Even when I pointed out how easy it was to do. Of course the real headache was the report, which took so long to write and I had to use 3 sheets (I do a really short SHORT version in my notepad which I use later).

Time to play EVE and practice the "manly" method of defense called "Hull Tanking"… where you block shots with the hull of your ship (as opposed to using shields and armor). Think of it as blocking attacks on your body while nude… :)

Hmm…

*stuffs an activated grenade into Plague Doctor's back pocket, then pours a jar of glue in after and then runs far away* >:-D

Heh… loved the Spy vs. Spy comics back in the day. :)

I would like to take this oportunity to remind you all that my birthday is getting closer.

September 11th. (No, I'm not making some kind of sick joke)
I expect all of you to congratulate me. More reminders will follow.

Eh. Pretty sure the ARM thing is tendon related… Like tennis elbow, but higher up.
love it. Always something painful, ultimately trivial, with no real cure. Lovely.

Least I got a great sleep in the end! I dreamed a cure! I didn't wake up with it, but at least the pain isn't as bad now. ^_^

Tendons suck, sleep rocks!

Ugh, I have so much to do today. I'm trying not to think about how much I don't want to have to go back to work tomorrow. Gotta do it, though. :[ It will just be time to start looking forward to weekends again.

Posted at 3:08AM, Aug. 15, 2010

Time to prepare myself for another long night of walking. The way my coworkers reacted to how I do my job suggests to me that they don't do the job as assigned. Unfortunately it's people like these guys that keep reinforcing the stereotype that we security officers do nothing at work except sit at a desk drinking coffee and eating donuts. ugh…

Well… at least I don't have to worry about having to work out. Too bad one of my neighbors thinks that walking for 6 to 7 hours is not equal to jogging. And his version of jogging is to use the longest strides possible as quickly as possible for an hour or two…

i run into a million people like this. being in shape, and getting exercise is not equal to being an athlete. a lot of times when i beg my wife to go the gym with me to get in shape, she often says "but i'm not like you, i can't run for hours on end and do a ton of calisthenics." and i reply, "but you just have to walk around for a little bit. do a pushup."
even my fellow military members don't see the difference in the terms. quite sad really.

"but you just have to walk around for a little bit. do a pushup."

You do understand that neither of this will get you "in shape", right?

Or are you just trying to trick her into it by making things sound much more simple than they actually are?

it starts with just walking and a pushup. especially when your current workout regime is, click the mouse as fast as you can.
it will prevent weight gain, and she'd be healthier than she is.

Posted at 1:08PM, Aug. 15, 2010

I don't think you get how working out… works. She'll continue to put on weight without a solid diet and consistent cardio training (and that means more than walking around).

And by a pushup do you mean the ones with the Flintstones on them. personally i like grape the best but orange and cherry are both good too

Posted at 2:08PM, Aug. 15, 2010

Thanks, but i'm pretty sure i have a basic understanding of exercise and the human body. i think you're just trolling now.

Because I made a wisecrack about how you write push-up?

What I'm trying to do is tell you that if you want your wife to get into shape she needs to do a lot more than low impact exercises occasionally, and a single push-up. She needs to suck it up and run on the treadmill like you and have a balanced diet. But ok, you clearly got this handled. Good luck!

Posted at 3:08PM, Aug. 15, 2010

i thought the pushup comment was showing that you were trolling.

But you have to start small. She was never an athlete, she doesn't have the background in exercising to just go hop on the treadmill and go at it.

my definition of in shape, is not being a poster child for heart disease. not necessarily micheal phelps.

Metal is hot.

I burnt three fingers of my right hand pretty badly today. I grabbed the top to the fire thingy and realized after a couple moments that it was pretty damn hot.

hot…

I think what Lefarce was trying to get at is, without proper diet, the working out itself won't really matter. If she's going for weight loss, then she'll definitely need to cut down, calories, fats, etc, etc. That, combined with the small amounts of exercise (eventually building up to more and more) will hopefully give her the body she desires.

Thats not what I was getting at. But thanks for trying.

EDIT: to actually contribute something and avoid sidetracking this whole thread into another pointless territory that nobody cares about besides one other person (thanks alwinbot for shootin' the Always Sunny breeze with me),

Ever get that feeling that you said something stupid, but didn't realize it. Or made a mistake that looking back, seemed like a perfectly normal choice at the time?

Well I don't! Instead I'm just kinda pissed because I've had a headache all day, and it feels like I fucked my ear drum up somehow. Good times. Oh and I lied, I'm pretty sure I fucked something up and am having a paranoia laced day :V

No one luvs you Le Farce…
It's ok, no one luvs me either. :)

Couldn't get a doctor's appointment till tomorrow, buggerit! But with my arm up in a sling for the time being it doesn't hurt as much.
Not that I have much faith that a doctor will be able to do much except confirm what I suspect and tell me to do what I'm already doing. Buuuut, I'll go through the motions.

After all this time, I'm finally ready to update Pinky TA! Yay!!! Just need to do some minor fixes to the art and then I can have a new page ready Woot! ^__^

Its not that they don't, its that they can't. You can't handle this kinda love.

But maybe my love is the kinda love only one who also cannot be loved can love. Its time to get gay Ozone. With each other.

canada still accepts paper copies of resumes? if you go anywhere and ask for a job here, they'll ask if you've applied online yet… except maybe mom and pop stores.

I had the most fu*ked up dreams last night. i had about 30, but technically there were two.

I was inside the multiplayer for battlefield: bad company 2. runnin and gunnin and hiding. i went inside a trailer and suddenly i was insided Adventure Time, and i was Finn the Human. i'm leading these people on an adventure, turns out it was luke and leia and han. we were runnin from darth vader. we went into a room, and the lights blew out. so we went somewhere else altogether. then we went back to the trailer. and went into one room, and leia left with Darth vader into the room that the lights blew out. she came back in and said something had pulled darth vader under the bed. Our lights started flickering and one blew out, when i looked under the bed i started to be pulled under. but i was stuck in some sort of sleep paralysis (insided a dream, so weird). eventually after shaking the bed leia helped me out, and i woke up from this nightmare.

Second dream(s)

after that any time i closed my eyes, i was always in a crowded place, and it'd get real quiet and everyone would stare at me all creepy like.
Thank you Christopher Nolan.
