So here I am at my midnight shift. I was a little worried about being here alone the whole shift, but luckily Lesley was here until 3:30, and it was nice to not be alone here.
Now I'm alone here. It's not a big deal though. I played some Fire Pro on an emulator -- it's been a while. Fun as hell, and that entertained me till like 4:45. I watched a couple episodes of Reno 911, and its pretty good stuff. Here are two quotes:
Clementine: When one dynamic person meets another dynamic person, it's like a whole lot of dynamite.
Jones: Sir, I will not hestitate to beat your ass with your own shoe!
LOL. Steve should be coming in at 6am (so he said), but I do know he did play some xaos with Vic till like 1:30/2ish, so I'm a little doubtful. If he gets in at 6am, then kudos. I'm happy I got to talk to Vic about xaos -- it reminded me how much I enjoyed looking up WC3 strats. I think I wanna get back into playing that game melee again. Of course, it'll only take like 2 ridiculous beatdowns to convince me to stop playing, but yah you know.
Everytime I feel like getting back into the game, I just need to waste like an hour finding it and installing it and setting up and playing it to realize its boring then stop again. Maybe I'm getting too old for games, but moments like these (like me going to www.warcraftstrategy.com after so long) that make me realize that I am a gamer. It's those times when I read PSM and wish I could be there -- at the forefront of gaming technology, experiencing the newest thing, debating subjects with other fanatics, and making smalltalk about final fantasies, RPGs, wrestling games, action games, puzzlers, and whatnot.
I sent an email to PSM asking about internships or if they have a journalist degree or whaetver -- no response. I'd love to work for them. I remember thinking when I was kid that I'd want to be a wrestling commentator. I realize that thats something I don't think I could continuously do -- maybe one night, one match, but I doubt I can be anything comparable to the greatness that is Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura.
Another job I wanted was to work for PSM. That's something that still interests me -- I don't really think my major/education will push me in that direction, but it's one of those "cool" jobs it'd be cool to have, but I don't think I'd honestly do that for a living. Kinda like Homer working at the bowling alley.
That's enough for now. I emailed my cousin in Australia, and it was good to hear from her -- I have a correspondent =P
