[ mood | amused ]

How are you guys doing? Good I hope... I just got off work after a good 13-14 hour day.. I wasn't able to go see 'Aeon Flux' with AThos and Neosho because they went to see it today... but besides that.. let's just not worry about all the bad news today.. and hear the fun stuff! ^_____^;;

I'M OFF TOMORROW!!!

Neosho and Athos got themselves Nintendo DS's so we can play those whenever we all actually see each other again..

So I bought 'Dragon Quest VIII' the other day and have been playing it... The game is GREAT.. I haven't had very much fun with ANY RPG'S lately.. but this one has made it all better for me... the enemies are hilarious! Fighting against slugs with HUGE lips and Octopus that use their tentacles like puppets is a major plus. The art is definately from the DragonBall Z artist.. (I don't remember his name.. so sue me)
Though I very much dislike DBZ.. The Qragon Quest series is totally awesome.
The graphics are very much like 'Dark Cloud' and 'Dark Cloud 2'... Same company too "Level5"..
The game is great overall.. I just REALLY like it.

Um.. well I guess that's all for now... *sigh*

I got a call today from work... and I let my voice mail pick it up... HELL if I'm going to work on my day off!
I check my VM, and it's Christy (My boss) saying "THE RASPBERRY LEMONAIDE MACHINE IS DEAD!! THERE'S RASPBERRY LEMONAIDE EVERYWHERE!!!! Please call back..."
Okay... so being the nice guy I am.. I called back asking what's wrong and they need ME to fix the damn machine... heaven forbid they look at the instruction manual and fix it themselves.
Seeing as I am the only one that knows how the damn thing is put together and taken apart such and what-not... I pack up form my uncles house and I head back to town to help them and just... go home from there..
When I get there, OF COURSE the machine is fixed and running again... and they tell me.. "Oh... We figred it out.. thanks." Well a CALL would have been NICE!!!
I hate work.. GOD I hate work...
Okay.. now tell me if THIS doesn't sound familiar... This is the very WEIRD part....
I decide to hang out a little bit and chat seeing as how a few of my friends were there...
A guy walks in and orders something...

Hold that thought... Okay.. about 95% of the poeple that come in to order something.... USALLY say... "I'd like a 3 piece MEAL." End line... they stop.... and start getting their wallet...
WE usually have to ask them... "What TWO side items would you like on that MEAL?" Because you know... the meal comes with two sides.
ANYWAYS...

The guy walks in and orders something... and my friend who happened to be at the register asked him politely... "What two side items would you like with that meal sir?"
and the guy FREAKS.... (Yes.. this is the familiar part eh Athos?)
The guy starts stomping and yelling, "I JUST WANT A CHICKEN MEAL!!! THAT'S ALL!! YOU HAVE TO ASK ME THESE STUPID STUPID QUESTIONS!! AND ALL I SAID WAS I WANT A MEAL!!!!!!"
I'm not sure exactly what he said but that was the basic gist of it..
Yes.. there was head hitting and stomping around in circles..
He eventually just left... but I thought that I should share my wonderful day with everyone.
As for the rest of my day? Hell... surprise me... send me a message.. I don't care.. I'm up for anything.

[ mood | Nostalgic/a bit sad.. ]

A start to a sad day..
Yesterday.. a very good and close friend of mine passed away from a heart attack.
I will miss her to the day I die. But I will not dweel over it too much.. for I know she wouldn't want anyone to pity over her.. She would want us to remember her for who she was and continue on with our lives.

Aside from the sadness... I come home from work today and the first thing I see on my PC is "Princess Pretty Pants"... I am instantly frightened and confused, so I curl up in a corner and hide..
Not really.. but it was funny. Reminds me of my good ol' saying, "You make my pants sad." or "...pants happy." Which I learned from C0nker actually.. Anyways..

Work was silly... I got the pleasure of putting a new machine together for them... brought me back to my childhood days of loving to build with Lego's and Kinnex, and Linkin' Logs and such.. I loved that kinda stuff.

Got paid today, WooT!

I finally have a good idea of how to charge for pictures and commissions of such nature... So I will begin doing that.. because I also think I'm good enough now.

As for the rest of the day... I'm clueless on what to do. I think I'll just sit here and talk and draw for the majority of the day. That sounds fun.

Until next time.

Okay.. I'm tired of summer.. I'm ready for winter again.
That's all you have here in Wichita Falls, Texas... There's no such thing as Spring or Autumn... for the most part...
You have Summer... and then you have Winter... And sometimes... it likes to switch daily!
Like today it could be Summer...and tomorrow it could decide to be half winter, half summer!
Oh yes. *sighs*

Looks like I don't have to water the plants today.. BWAHAHA.. I'm so lazy.
But letting the dogs out is gonna be a bit tougher..

[ mood | awake ]

I had another pretty good morning today... before work of course.
I get to talk to [info]ashwings a little bit before I go to work...
Talking to a friend really does help with work. It helps ease MY mind at least, especially with all this solitude and quietness.

I was exploring the net the other day and came across a GreenDay/Oasis Mix that I've never heard... It's a mix that includes "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and "Wonderwall." They both sound similair in key changes and tones... so this group of people, i guess, mixed the two together VERY nicely. It turned out to be a VERY nice song.. I've been abusing it alot lately. They also made a VERY badass Music video to it as well... you can see it here.
I think they mixed it nicely.. it's great.
I'm sure [info]armitige3 agrees.

Anyways.. work calls... I'll be back to typ more about my day later..

[ mood | calm ]

My parents are still gone, and won't be back until monday or teusday..
I'm starting to go insane from the insane amount of insane quietness around here.
As much as I love it... I hate all at the same time too. It's not that I want my PARENTS here with me, I want a friend here with me at least.
Someone to talk to, just to help ease my mind of all it's worries..

As for WHY my mind has worries in the first place.. I'm sure you've all read [info]drake_dirkwood Journal..
The past two months HAVE been quite alot of hell to go through.
Athos and I both can both relate. As for the news that Athos has told me recently ABOUT this problem of ours... as much help as it was, it's still taking me a bit of time to get over everything that's been troubling me. I will eventually pull through, and yes I have [info]alunthri , [info]ashwings , [info]the_janitah and [info]zombiecat2001 to thank for everything.

Thank you for always being there to lift my spirits.. I couldn't ask for better friends than you guys.
And I'm terribly sorry for everything I made you guys go through... all my whining and complaining and such.

[ mood | depressed ]

I've currently been having alot of depression follow me everywhere I go.
Everything was going fine until a few days ago. I would rather not explain exactly what it is that bothers me... but I need to at least let SOME of it out. All this solitude I'm getting isn't helping much either... my parents are gone for a trip in Florida... I didn't go this year... so I'm left at the house alone for a few weeks. All this quietness is nice to a point, but I DO prefer to be around at least ONE other person. I swear that I am going to go insane by the end of this week.

All my friends that I usually talk to.. ZombieCat.... Conker... Neosho... and others aren't online..
ZombieCat is on a trip too now.. so that means no him tonight... or maybe even tomorrow.

All I did today was sleep.... and sleep some more... I could've easily gotten up... but I just lay down in bed for the majority of the day.... there goes a nice day wasted... again.

Most of this fundimentally disappointment is sadly being directed inward at the time.
I'm twisting the world around me until I say "I hate myself.." and then curl into a ball crumbling in a world of sadness.

As much as I try to look at the good side of things... I end right back up down in the gutter eventually..

That's all I'll post for now..

My brother is so cool. [18 Jul 2005|12:19am]
[ mood | crazy ]

MY brtoher just finished talking to me about alot of stuff he had done since I last saw him a few years ago. (other than being hit by a car of course)

One day him and another guy (my brother-in-law) "Doodle"... were goign to work and heard on the news about a contest for tickets to a Foo Fighters Concert.
Doodle called in and wanted to answer the questions for the tickets... but somehow he got hung up on and they found someone else to answer the questions ...which made him upset.. so he called them back and told them about his anger in losing because of a disconnect in the phone line... So they told him about another contest the next morning... Whoever lasted the longest in getting their hand crushed in a vice, won tickets.

So Doodle and Brandy both signed up for it and they went there the next morning and started it up... Brandy went up after a few others guys went... and RIGHT before they started.. they got Adam Snadler on the phone-line and they were like...
"Hey! We have Adam Sandler here on the phone.. Hey Adam.. We have Brandy here getting his hand crushed in a vice for tickets."
Brandy: Hey Adam! What's up man?
Adam: BRANDY? IS that a guy or a girl?!
Brandy: Haha.. I'm a guy dude.
Adam: What...? Did you get your ass kicked when you were in school alot?
Brandy: Nah man! I can hold my own!
Adam: Hey Brandy I just got finished talking to your sister "Chuck."

It was so funny... I have it on tape.
Anyways.. They finished the hand crushing and Doodle won. But afterwards the station decided to give tickets to everyone who participated... which made Doodle Uupset for almost breaking his hand for tickets.. hehe...

They got front row seats at the Foo Fighter's concert... they could've reached out and touched their shoes if they wanted to.
Anyways.. I'll post more about this later.

Okay so... [15 Jul 2005|05:00pm]
[ mood | sore ]

Alright... These past few days have been horrible.

On the 10th, Athos and myself went to visit ZombieCat IN PERSON... OMG IT WAS TEH SO COOL!
But after we left... I got home and I sat on my PC... just waiting for somethign to happen...
I'm so helpless unless ZC's online! I can't figure out much to do or draw or anything! So what do I end up doing? Playing City of Heroes... that's what. Seemingly endless hours on CoH...

My brother finally came back down to visit us... It's really nice to see him again... especially after what happened a few months back.. I came home one day and my mom says to me, "Oh Guess what?"
"What is it mom?"
"You're brother got hit by a car."
"SAY WHAT!?"
"Brandy got hit by a car going about 50MPH."
"IS HE ALIVE?!"
"OH yes.. he's fine."
Truthfully.. I'm not surprised... Ever since we were kids.. he'd been one hell of an action junkie.
Getting hit by a car going 50 mph for him was probably ... I dunno.. getting slapped in the face?
Which he did... when he got hit, his forehead smashed into the front bottom right of the car windshield.
Crack that part of the windshield and shattered the rest of the window. Not to mention he did a nice backflip.. nothing new for him... and then landed on concrete... still nothing new....
As SOON as he landed he got straight up like...indtantly... and dialed 911 on his cell.

Okay.. NOW for the bullshit... he got like three tickets... Parking illegally.... driving on the ...crosswalk? (he was pushed off the road by another vehicle... hence why he got out of his truck and then got hit...) and I forgot what the other ticket was for... but he got these tickets AFTER everything had happened and on the next day no less... But as soon as he gets this taken care of he'll talk to a lawyer... hopefully SOME good will come of this.

I recently got a new game called, "Samurai Western" Fun game, that.

That's all for now.

Ouchies... [04 Jan 2005|06:33pm]
[ mood | sore ]

I beat myself up at work today.... not meaning to of course...
IT hurts... Today has been a REALLY bad day for me...
Someone spilt their sprite in the lobby so I had to go clean that up... I slipped on the wetness and slammed my knee into the stupid Chicken Egg prize machine... Someone also slid their foot into the end of the mop and hit my jaw with the top of the mop handle.

Afterwards I went in the back to put some rolls onto some pans so we could proof and cook them... When I was carrying the VERY heavy box full of frozen rolls to the back it slipped from one of my hands and I dropped it onto my foot... attached to the same knee that was smacked into the chicken machine... .... ... so when that happened I lost my balance, and to stop myself I tried to catch the first thing within reach... which happened to be the oven. Solarcaine on the hand.... which doesn't really help because we have no back person today... so I have to take care of customers up front.. keep the lobby clean AND wash all the dishes.. So when I stick my hand into the hot water we need to wash with, even more pain ensues..

I'm sorry.. It seems like I do nothing but complain here.. so I'll post a few things that have been good...

After christmas it turned out that Athos, Our Uncle, my friend TJ, and myself were all off of work.. so we all got to have fun playing Battlefield 1942.. it was great.
I got a Cell Phone for Christmas... Why don't some of you give me a call sometime? Just make sure it's about 9:00PM central time or the weekend when you do.. If you want my number contact me...

I also got a Nintendo DS, which is REALLY cool.. It's like... like.. uhh... REALLY cool!
So anyways... My hand hurts... typing isn't helping much ..so I'm gonna end it here... LAter..

I work at Golden Chick... Yeah...
Just about an hour ago.. The Golden Chick that I work at was robbed.. at gun point..
I wasn't working tonight.. but I still live a BLOCK up the street from it...
I'm scared to go to work tomorrow...

No one was shot or hurt... The guy just came in and took about 1400 bucks and took off...
I'm sure everyone is shook up.. I'm not sure how "normal" it'll be tomorrow morning.

Anyways... that's all there is to report...

[ mood | crappy ]

Halloween last night was really great.. Iria, Given, Athos, and myself all went to the mall in town and hung out! I'm sure you've heard it all from Athos.. so I'll stop there...

In other news, I work at a Golden Chick in Wichita Falls... Another Golden Chick was robbed at gunpoint on Saturday.. but what's really scary, is that another of my co-workers (name is Curtis) was outside taking out the trash on Friday night I believe... he came back in and told us...
"There was a black guy outside that just asked me if I was the only one working... I told him I was working with four or five other employees.. even though it's just the three of us... and then he asked if we were closed.. and I told him yeah... then he didn't say anything and just left." I THINK that we could've been robbed or shot that night if Curtis hadn't lied.. I'm grateful that he did.
So there goes another close call in my life... >IF< that guy really was the robber...

Anyways, Something that happened today.... we get an order of equipment and supplies today at Goldens.. Christy(our manager)... got mad at me today for putting up supplies into the freezer.... cause it was on HER cleaning list and now she would having nothing to do... This is the only place you could probably get in trouble for helping out someone. Yes.. I think my life sucks at Golden Chick.

Thats all for right now.

Work was interesting today... Here's.. I'll post it fro ma convo I had with c0nker earlier...

Moku Kuribe: I had an interesting experience today...
C0nker4: D:
C0nker4: what happened?
Moku Kuribe: I only... could've DIED!!!
C0nker4: O_O
C0nker4: OH MY GOD
Moku Kuribe: It was at work..
Moku Kuribe: Someone in the back was cleaning out the walk-in
Moku Kuribe: and.. he used this floor cleaner called "TRACK"
C0nker4: o.O
Moku Kuribe: he mixed IT with bleach.... and what he didn't know is that "TRACK" contains Amonia...
Moku Kuribe: Never never never mix Bleach and amonia..
Moku Kuribe: He basically made a Mustard Gas...
Moku Kuribe: and when me and my cousin "Sean" walked back there we nearly passed out...
C0nker4: holy fuck
Moku Kuribe: Our throats and eyes itched so bad
C0nker4: that mother fucker was fired wasnt he
Moku Kuribe: no
C0nker4: WHAT?
Moku Kuribe: He's a manager
C0nker4: :|
C0nker4: that DUMB fuck, he doesnt deserve to be a manager x_o
Moku Kuribe: yeah...

Learn this lesson well friends.
I'm okay and my cousin Sean is okay..
and yes.. the poor soul who caused it all.. he is okay too.

Though my eyes still itch a bit...

Never mix Bleach with Amonia... EVER... check the ingredient of shit first before mixing chemicals.. *sigh*

You all have a nice day.

Bored -_-;; [22 Mar 2004|06:28pm]
[ mood | hot ]

I don't have much to do really...
Here I am.. sitting on my computer... either usually drawing or looking around on DA...

I need a job so bad.. but everywhere I look it's usually no go.
Alot of it has to do with the fact that I have long hair..

But it's so UNFAIR!!! It's STOOPEED!
Anyways I'm just rambling.. nothing much ELSE to do..

I rented Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes for GameCube and played it...
It's good.. but I don't think it's worth the purchase... only if you haven't played the original it would be... All it really is... is an EXACT remake of the original.. EXACTLY the same... just new cut scenes and slightly different dialogue. But it IS good...

I've been starting to play Animal Crossing again.
I've neglected it for a long time.. but started at it again...

Sorta been in the mood to play my old Final Fantasy games again..
Perhaps FF9 would help. Perhaps LATER..

That's all for now.

Soon... very very soon... Actually... On Saturday... I'm going to Florida... and Athos is coming along too.

I remember last year when I went.. I saw this neat Soundtrack there that I wanted.. It was a Final Fantasy Tacits Original Soundtrack!! I WANTED ONE SO BAD!!! But I was broke... I doubt they still have it... but if they DO.. *grabbies*

I also remember the two wall scrolls that I bought.. Samurai X... Orange Park Mall... WOO what a great place!

Now I just can't wait to take off.. I'm gonna try and have loads of fun. Hopefully not be bored most of the time.

Anyways... post again later..
