Between Fark and SG, I've seen more of my friends naked than I ever, in a million years, thought I would.

Well, shit.

1 bottle, the one I drank yesterday, was carbonated.

the rest are bottles of sweet, flat beer.

*sigh*

So, about 3 weeks ago, I started making my first batch of beer, ever.

A few minutes ago, I had my first bottle of Erich Beer.

It tastes great! A little sweet, because I mis-read 2 1/2 TSP ans 2 1/2 TBSP of sugar per bottle (to start the carbonation) but it's still some damn good beer! a nice pale ale.

I'm already brewing up...

So, I successfully resized one nipple from 16g to 14.

I'd do the other, but I lost the stupid little ball thingy that keeps the piercing from falling out of my moob.

Ah well, I'll find the damn thing eventually and then have a matching pair.

Since i've got money issues, naturally my computer craps out.

Thank god I have the Crappy Lappy as backup, but jeez... I don't want or need to spend time tearing my desktop box apart, trying to troubleshoot the fucking thing.

bleh

A tragic lack of money* means i'll likely be gone for a bit.

but I'll be back eventually.




*don't get me started on the job. first paycheck came in, and I got paid for 2 days. of the entire week. so.... yeah, no money.

It's times like this, when my back has been in extraordinary pain for almost a week, that I kinda wish I had medical coverage.

Week 1 of work is done. I like it. Kinda disappointed that it's only about 8 weeks of work, but at least it's a job.

plus, it's a government job, so that'll look good on my resume.

And best yet, my unemployment had finally run out just a couple weeks ago. What this will do for me is let me start a new claim to...

Day 1 of work is over, and it didn't suck!

True, it was just training, but it looks like this will be a good job. MUUUUUUUUUUUUCH less walking than my bad knee and I were thinking it would be.

So, I got a job.

It's only a temp job, but it's going to be my first real employment in a year.

I'll be working for the Census. One of the door to door dweebs.

Just in time, too. Ran out of unemployment, and i'll have a mortgage payment coming up just in time for the first paycheck.

WonderCon 2010 (or "oh ten", as countless people called it)

Took the bus in to SF, since the $8.40 round trip is much much MUCH cheaper than the $50 I'd spend on gas, bridge and parking. Weather had been changing a lot in the last few days, so my bad knee and back are just killing me. I know I'm not ging to be able...

I totally can't afford it, but I'm going to WonderCon anyway.

But for the first time since I've been going, it's only a 1 day event for me. No hotel room and 3 day pass, no spending hundreds of dollars on books and statues and other shit that I really don't need. I'm bringing enough money for the bus (less than 1/4 the price of...
