where to go from here
So. I'm not sure how much I want to say so I'll offer a blanket statement: I am in the market for a new job. I still technically have my old one but unless some things drastically change I won't be back after this Friday. I plan on filing for unemployment and beating the crap out of my job search on Monday. I'm hopeful, excited, and scared shitless. Current Mood:  anxious | | Wednesday, December 31st, 2008 | | 11:22 am |
Year in Review
I got a job that I'm on the verge of not having. I still have an awesometastic girlfriend. I have a new apartment. I survived my first foray into the "real world". I still have great friends. I don't know that anything else really changed all that much. | | Tuesday, November 4th, 2008 | | 11:09 pm |
i think i speak for everyone
Or at least most everyone on my friends page, when I say that based on what happened tonight: Our country has a chance. | | Thursday, August 21st, 2008 | | 8:41 am |
enjoy the silence?
So once again a somewhat decent stretch of time passes between looks into my life for my humble readers. So a summary, in list form: I got a raise. I had a blast this last weekend: Brazilian meat w/good company plus AWESOME dessert and the next day seeing one of my coworkers get hitched. The Brewers continue to impress me. I have had the apartment to myself since Sunday and it is nice to have a little me time. I am going to the Dirty Marsh this weekend for family fun and old friends. The Dark Knight just might be my favorite movie ever. MM Such a whore of a cat! | | Monday, May 19th, 2008 | | 10:28 am |

"Good Arms vs. Bad Arms" by Frightened Rabbit good arms, versus bad arms, will win hands down they are built to hold and fit look how far they go around you don't need these now that you've found another pair and the difference astounding, i should expect except leave the rest at arm's length keep your naked flesh under your favorite dress and leave the rest at arm's length when they reach out, don't touch them, don't touch them i decided this decision some six months ago so i'll stick to my guns, but from now on it's war i am armed with the past, and the will, and a brick i might not want you back, but i want to kill him and leave the rest at arm's length keep your naked flesh under your favorite dress and leave the rest at arm's length when they reach out, don't touch them, don't touch them and leave the rest at arm's length don't brush with him, he might have diseases and leave the rest at arm's length steer clear of the grasp, girl -- run, run, away and leave the rest at arm's length just roll over boy and don't make me do this and leave the rest at arm's length i am armed to the teeth and i'm heavy set and leave the rest at arm's length i'm not ready to see you this happy and leave the rest at arm's length i'm still in love with you (can't admit it yet) | | Thursday, May 8th, 2008 | | 1:28 pm |
the more things change
Although I love my job for it's challenges and new experiences, sometimes it fucking sucks. Would love to go into detail but it's not in my best interest to do so methinks. | | Saturday, May 3rd, 2008 | | 9:54 am |
Sexy Party here I come! On Wednesday a friend celebrates her 21st birthday. Then next weekend my bosses' son celebrates his first birthday so I'll probably go to that. Then another party the next weekend. Then Appleton again for events of massive fun. Then my parents are coming to Milwaukee for a Brewer game. Busy month. | | Friday, April 25th, 2008 | | 3:34 pm |

memeage part 1
Answers to soulofajedi's requests: My life recently: I am the accounting department at a small (15 person or so) company. I do accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll (although we farm most of it out to Paychex), inventory (although we don't have an inventory per se) fixed assets, the whole shebang. I also do some HR type stuff like managing insurance, 401k stuff, that sort of thing. The guy I replaced is still training me a couple hours a week. I enjoy it (well most of it anyway). I work with good people, am not micromanaged, don't feel like I'm being pushed in a million different directions, and there are advancement opportunities up the yingyang if everything my boss says as far as the company's growth prospects is correct. The company is called EOG Environmental and they do hazardous waste disposal for factories, universities, labs, etc. as well as a variety of other related services (small clean ups, diagnostics, chem identification, etc.) In addition to my job, I spend a lot of time with my wonderful girlfriend. She's an excellent match for me and I'm extremely happy to be dating her. We do the standard boyfriend/girlfriend datey-type stuff. TV, movies, the occasional round of bowling or mini golf. I also just acquired Super Smash Brothers Brawl for the Wii so we've been hammering each other on that. We also like to play darts. I also spend time with the a few of the small number of people in my circle of friends that call the greater Miltown area home. My stuffed animal collection continues to grow. I rather enjoy being independent although I am dreading the day that student loan payments become a reality. The Big Lebowski. I've thought about this and I still don't have a super good answer. It seems, in my mind anyway, to be a rather polarizing force. The people I know that like it, REALLY like it, and the people I know that don't, absolutely LOATHE it. There is very little middle ground. I personally think it's awesome because the roles are all very well-acted, the humor is fantastic, and at its core it's a movie about staying true to what you are which is to us Yuais somewhat of a first principle imo. The Dude hated the fucking Eagles and being stranded in the middle of nowhere would not dissuade him from expressing that fact. Although the plot is ludicrous it only adds to the comedic value. A couple things that would shake or have shaken my entire worldview: Having my heartbroken out of nowhere. Losing a parent. The fact that atrocities like 9/11 can and do occur. George Bush winning a 2nd term in office. Similarly, the idea that Fundamentalist Christian nutjobs could be running this country(Looking at you Mr. Huckabee.) As for bouncing for joy, disgustingly cute dogs are the way to go. When I see someone walking one, I make woofing noises. I <3 dogs. Also, in typical male fashion, my team winning a close game in dramatic fashion has elicited joyous yelps and much bounciness on more than one occasion. | | 9:16 am |
A for effort
Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, favorite type of underwear, life experiences etc. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other.
Perhaps that will motivate me to post if anyone gives me a fun topic. Also, I have 2 tickets to Bruce Springsteen tonight that I am selling on behalf of my parents. The seats aren't the best and they are $200 for the pair ($100 a piece). If you are interested, let me know ASAP. | | Saturday, March 1st, 2008 | | 4:21 pm |
Everyone else is doing it so why I can't I
1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies. 2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each one. 3. Post them here for everyone to guess. 4. No Googling/using IMDb search functions. 5. Fill in the film once it's been guessed. 1. "God's going to sit this one out." 2. "What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information! " 3. "But inevitably, the further you run from your sins, the more exhausted you are when they catch up to you. And they do. Certain. It will not fail." 4. "Look at us. Look at what they make you give. " -Bourne Ultimatum5. "I'm sorry, I wasn't listening." -Big Lebowski6. "Have we not each experienced the sensation that a beautiful moment seemed to pass to quickly, and wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day, and wished that we could speed things up a bit? " 7 "The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you." 8: " A symbol, in and of itself is powerless, but with enough people behind it, blowing up a building can change the world. " -V for Vendetta 9. "When a forest grows too wild, a purging fire is inevitable and natural." -Batman Begins10. "My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others." -American Psycho | | Sunday, January 13th, 2008 | | 6:54 pm |

sweet
There is a thunderstorm happening right now. Don't know if the weather got the memo but it is January. Also Seinfeld continues to rock the early seasons. And a shout-out to bluheaven: what was the name of the band we saw? Also to Madison people in general, since there are so many of you and you invite me to stuff: I will make it eventually to see all of you! Especially those I haven't seen in awhile: Trimper Casey et al. | | Sunday, September 9th, 2007 | | 6:34 pm |

So I am considering coming to Appleton this Saturday for Le Brawl but I have 3 finals next week. Convince me. If I become convince and someone provides me an honest to god bed to sleep on you will be rewarded with alcoholic deliciousness. | | Friday, March 30th, 2007 | | 12:32 am |
MOVIE GOGOGOGOGOG
Another 3-fer. I won't do the screening thing as I realized due to Senor Bowman that it really isn't necessary. It's easy. She's standing right next to you. Apparently, he's got a record longer than my... well, it's long. Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you ARE the sucker. Also, an extra point if you name what all 3 have in common. | | Monday, March 26th, 2007 | | 2:29 am |
MOVIE GOGOGOGOGOGO
Seeing as how I've been lax recently in this, 3 quotes today, 1 point a piece. Comments will be screened so there is no copying. My turd is a direct communication from the Holy Father. This may sound like gibberish to you, but I think I'm in a tragedy. It was, after all, it was your life that taught me the purpose of all life. Purpose of life is to end. |
