Havin' lunch. I guess a lot of my posts are going to be like this now. It's crazy: I haven't even turned on my computer at home since Wednesday. There was a time when I'd get out of bed and immediately turn on the computer. Now I wake up, let the cat into my room (I keep the door shut at night or else I'd never get any sleep), go back to sleep for half an hour, have creepy dreams, wake up, go "aw crap," get ready and go to work. Yup. I went to sleep really early yesterday too. I think it's Snape's fault for meowing at the door every morning at about 5:00 and waking me up too early, so I end up going back to sleep.

I'm having a burger-hold-the-meat. And I'm dropping lettuce. Crap. Anyway. Took me half an hour just to walk over there, buy the food and walk back. First, I placed my order and discovered I only had $2 in my wallet. So I appologized and went to the ATM but half way there, I remembered I had $8 in my pocket. D'oh. So I got back in line and got my sandwich. Then I checked it, because I always check because sometimes they go and put meat on it. And there was no meat but they forgot the cheese. So I asked them to put a piece of cheese on it and instead they threw out the sandwich and made me wait while they assembled a whole new one. I guess they have to, because of health laws or whatever but it's still annoying.

I've decided I need to do more finished pieces for my art page. Practically all my stuff, except the comics, is sketches. Not that there's anything wrong with sketches but it'd be cool to have a section for "sketches" and a separate one for "art." Like how the comics have their own section now. I've been spending a lot of my time (well, the time I set aside for working on my site, anyway) for making Sims skins. I'll have a new batch up this weekend. I'd really like a head mesh with long hair but I don't want to go using other people's meshes. Since I don't have any software to make my own, that means I'm stuck with what Maxis provides. They aren't bad but I'd like to see a little more variety in the heads. Heh: in my head, I refer to them as "crania" because of how they're designated by a 'C' in the filename. Also because I am a nerd.

I have too many fries. Geeze, if this is the medium, I'm glad I didn't order the large. So, does anyone want some fries? Uhh, I'll mail 'em to you.

My friend from NY is indeed coming to visit this weekend. Tonight, actually. And everyone's coming to my place. Uh oh. I'd better clean up. It's not too bad. I cleaned the bathroom last night. And they won't be hanging around in the bedroom. So it's just do the dishes, tidy up the living room and vacuum. No matter how many times I write that word, I always have to look up how to spell it.

Now I'm running Disk Cleanup on the PC I use, so I'm on the Mac. Ye gods, my eyes hurt. I don't know why. I generally hate Macs but I don't think I can blame this on them. I think it's just the result of staring at reeeeally tiny tubes all day. Except I haven't been doing all that much of it today. Oop, disk cleanup's done. Now for the defragging. Which, as far as I know, hasn't ever been done since they got the computer. And this computer's been here a lot longer than I have. So I'll let it run over the weekend. Wowzers. That's pretty fragmented. OK then.

I think I'll go home early today. So I can get some rest before my friends come over. I'm really tired. I'm going to come in on Monday anyway. Probably. If I feel like it. If all else fails, I think I can retroactively use a few hours of vacation time; they're pretty lax about it. But screw that - I do plenty around here. Alright. Screw you guys, I'm going home. I mean, you work guys. Not YOU guys. You know.

w00t!

I just joined lab_gripes. On a whim, I did a search of interests for 'genetics' and that came up. That rules! No more having to make stuff friends-only so I can bitch about... people. Now I can bitch about them there! I had no idea such a community existed. I'm off to make my intoductory post.
