And so, International Talk Like a Pirate Day draws to a close by and large a disappointment. It's a shame some people can't or won't enjoy silliness for its own sake. Depressing, too, but that might've been me taking too long to take my first meds for the day, and not bothering with the second round.

Ever take a dare ye just knew was ta come back to haunt ye?

A matey of mine's swore off the porn, an it's been rough waters fer her. I be sympathizin', an' whenever I find somethin' innerestin' in these fair harbors, I plot a safe course fer her ta steer clear o' temptation ta find it, lest she be overcome by the treasures she's...

Last night, I had a dream about Freddie Prinze, Sr. I knew him, and was hanging around with him on his last day.

Nevermind that he died before I was born, never watched his show, and I don't think I could recognize him if I saw his picture in real life. It was just somehow him, and it was important to me on some level....

As I type this, I am exactly 29 years, six months, one hour, and one minute old. I'm dead tired, and can't sleep. Not anxieties, thankfully, but weird headspace nonetheless. It's rare that I have so much going on all at once, and have so little idea where any of it will lead me. It's like high school, with fewer zits and higher gas prices....

I feel like I just burned out my retinas. I'm still looking for a pharmacy tech job to support me while I'm trying to get the video gaming ones, and just spent a goodly chunk of the day cycling through poorly-organized, recursive, redundant sites sending out my resume, such as it is. Here's hoping I get a nibble sooner rather than later.

Just added my AIM and YIM IDs. I must be out of my damn mind, but hey, you never know. People might be cool.

Headed down to Killeen sometime next month. A friend's husband is shipping out, and we're giving him a proper send-off. Guy's got two kids with learning disabilities and a wife who built her life around him. Here's hoping he comes home...

Excuse me for a moment while I wax pedantic.

Why is it that people think it's a compliment to say someone looks beautiful? "Congratulations, you won the genetic lottery/got your money's worth from the plastic surgeon!" Don't get me wrong, my head turns for a pretty face, too - I'm a hypocrite here, I admit it - but physical appearance is about the least important...

Wow. Twice in one day.

So.

My sister, who's a good little missionary, has found out that I'm certified now and toying with the idea of moving to New Orleans. She's asked Mom if I think she'd mind if she moved in with me if I do go.

Mind, I love my sister, and think she's a good person. I do. No. Really. Stop that,...

Anyone in the DFW area who's willing to do free voice work for a machinima flick, drop me a line?

Some days, you feel like taking a torch to your room, y'know? Too much shit you never use, and you don't really feel like lugging it all to the curb. Eh. My fault for being so shallowly materialistic, even if I'm only doing that shallowly,...

Got my certification results back. Somehow, I passed. Of course, it'll be ANOTHER fucking month before I get the cert in the mail so I can use it at a job.

Back from Gencon. Mild awkward moments, but overall, pretty good. May have an industry job coming soon. Wish I could say more, but since the guys I talked to couldn't tell me any such things themselves... well, at least it'll involve computers, if it happens. Wish me luck.

Shaved my head today. It's all smooth and stuff now.
