22:04 / 20.09.05

Well I've packed in my job and am heading back to college. So now I'm steeling myself for crushing ennui tomorrow morning. The end is in sight but it makes it that much harder to feign interest. I've been wandering around listlessly trying not to do too much or get involved in any petty fucking office politics and also desperately biting my tongue lest I unleash streams of bile at specific colleagues.
4 more days. 4 more days. 4 more days.

22:08 / 20.09.05

I'm just in from Gin Tonics in a Spanish bar on my goodbye night from Valencia. Back to Croydon on Thursday. Those from London will know the pain that that means.

I love a sentence with "that that" in it.

Saint Keggers

00:04 / 21.09.05

anyone here?

Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo

00:17 / 21.09.05

I'm here...at work for the next two hours or two. My 4th 16 hour day in a row, and upset that my paycheck doesn't show for two days, and I'm horridly overdrawn at the bank.

Saint Keggers

00:18 / 21.09.05

But those extra hours will show up nicely on the paycheck, no?

Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo

00:27 / 21.09.05

No.

I'm on salary.

*sobs*

00:28 / 21.09.05

Hullo.

What'cha all doing?

Pooky Is Just My Pornstar Name

00:29 / 21.09.05

Pffsh! Too bad, Solitaire. Perhaps all this hard work will pay off at performance review time? Maybe you'll even get a nice fat bonus out of it too.

Saint Keggers

00:31 / 21.09.05

Pooky!!!

The Buccaneer was a big hit when I wore it out the other night.

Thanks again.

Im just trying to organize my photofiles so I can copy them onto cd before I have another hardrive crash.

You?

Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo

00:34 / 21.09.05

Hard-drive crashes scare me. I had one summer when I went through three of them. Makes me miss my C-128, since it HAD no hard-drive.

Saint Keggers

00:39 / 21.09.05

Yeah, I hate them too. I spent most of the week trying to copy a dying one onto another drive. I had to spend the whole time holding it in my hand at the most awkward angle or it would start screaming like a robot during its first night in robot prison. Not fun.

But I managed to save everything... Im like superman that way.

Pooky Is Just My Pornstar Name

00:39 / 21.09.05

Hi Keg,

Glad you liked Old Seaman - er, Old Buccaneer.

BTW, how was the party?

Saint Keggers

00:43 / 21.09.05

The party on the weekend was alright...until we ended up going to see Dukes of Hazzard. That was a mistake.
We missed ya at the barbmeet though.

Pooky Is Just My Pornstar Name

00:56 / 21.09.05

Ooh. Pretty. What kind of flower is that?

Yeah, too bad about the meet. Did you guys fete Buk accordingly?

Saint Keggers

01:04 / 21.09.05

I believe its an echinnaecia(sp?)
Yeah, we feted Buk with beer and indian food.

Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo

01:09 / 21.09.05

I am having a Minneapolis Barbelith meetup right now!

I just bought myself a soda and am finishing up my paperwork with...well, no one, but that's all good. I have soda.

Saint Keggers

01:11 / 21.09.05

and now, nobody hurts and nobody dies.

Had to paraphrase Kim Mitchell. Couldn't be helped.

Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo

01:24 / 21.09.05

When I ran for office in college, my slogan was: Vote for me and no one gets hurt!

That and: Everyone booze up and riot!

And I argued that the posters had to stay up because they were protected political speech.

Saint Keggers

01:25 / 21.09.05

Its amazing how many people actually do get hurt during drunken riots.

P. Horus Rhacoid

23:01 / 21.09.05

Ho, shifters. I am drunk and watching Army of Darkness. What's happening with you people?

Pooky Is Just My Pornstar Name

23:33 / 21.09.05

I'm watching a recap of Lost season one on tv, shifting, and making a list of what I have to pack for my upcoming vacation.

P. Horus Rhacoid

23:35 / 21.09.05

Hmm. Lost is excellent. Enjoy the vacation! It's bedtime for me now, I have to get up tomorrow for class. WednesdaynightdrunkennessYES! Happy shifting, all.

I'm pretty sure I still have reading to do...

P. Horus Rhacoid

23:38 / 21.09.05

Though there is an episode of Miami Vice on right now that somehow involves ridiculous performance art...

Argh! No! I must be strong!

Pooky Is Just My Pornstar Name

23:44 / 21.09.05

Thanks, Vectcon. Hope you're not hung-over tomorrow!

The Return Of Rothkoid

04:21 / 22.09.05

Bam! Lateshifting!

And avoiding work!

Pow!

Saint Keggers

21:59 / 22.09.05

alas

22:05 / 22.09.05

The PEZ army of doom!

I need to grade papers. I need to grade papers.
I can't! I can't!

That pretty much sums up life for me at the moment.

Papess

22:09 / 22.09.05

Hiya Shifters! I am shifting in my kitchen for a half hour.

I have a Wonder Woman PEZ dispenser! It is quite a feeling sucking candy out of WW's neck.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

22:11 / 22.09.05

Whoah. I haven't had pez for years. I don't evem know if you can still get it in the UK.

I'm listening to my review copy of the new Akron Family/Angels Of Light CD... and the Angels have just dne Mother/Father by Swans... only nice. And happy. And stuff. It's all very strange. I may have to sleep soon, just from the weirdness of that.

P. Horus Rhacoid

22:17 / 22.09.05

How is it even possible to make that song nice and happy?

I am watching 'Hide and Go Shriek' on the Horror Channel. Cross-dressing killers! Stupid teenagers! Terrible acting! Predictability! Breasts! It's really quite fantastic.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

22:21 / 22.09.05

Really. They do. Gira is a genius.

■

22:21 / 22.09.05

I don't even know if you can still get it in the UK.

Probably not, but if you can there is only one place that is likely: Woolies. I shall endeavour to find some this weekend. FOR A MAN MUST HAVE A QUEST. A QUEST FOR PEZ.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

22:23 / 22.09.05

Actually, thinking about it, it may be subjective. This time round the lyrics are al about "love and destruction" instead of "fucking destruction". But in a campfire stylee oh yes. There's possibly a Mansonesque element to it all.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

22:24 / 22.09.05

A MAN SHALL HAVE PEZ. EVEN IF IT MUST MEAN BRAVING WOOLIE'S. OH YES. A MAN SHALL HAVE PEZ.

P. Horus Rhacoid

22:26 / 22.09.05

Manson's album scared the shit out of me...
