ah people that won't stop talking are always fun. I'm in my cube, which
seats four, and this guy is talking to a coworker and said coworker had
to go help someone bringing in some equipment so I am left alone with
Mr. Chatty. I have my earphones on and my back to him and yet he feels
the need to talk to me. Why? i'm inthe middle of cleaning up the fuck up
from last week ... arg."

fuck
me
running
it happened again. sailing along through this project that was deleted because of error last week and lo and behold what happens again? the same error. And now I can go back with certainty to the asshats in VA and say it is NOT my fault, like they assumed it was. I'm pissed like bear trying to shit out a porcupine but walking with a little vindication. Though I do have to redo all my work. Again. Again.
Sigh."

cranky
i'm getting cranky. wait for it ............ ok now i'm cranky.
it's all about work. i love what I do i just hate who I do it with. yes i'm still talking about work. wednesday i have to deliver software. it takes a day to complete. there are problems with it so i came to the main office to work. the machine i need is being used for a demo so i can't work on it. not going to get the chance to get everything done and they most likely won't see the debilitating error I get at my office. in my head they think it's me. i know there is physically not way for me to accidentally create this issue.
part of me thinks that no one cares about any of this here but me and the whole thing is taking place in my head.

if you are ever think of getting a cortozone (sp) shot in your foot, i
highly recommend avoiding it. It's never fun with you are trying to
repress screaming obsenities in the doctor's office. And I did a bad job
at that. That was one of the most painful things I have ever gone
through. And now my toe is numb, totally, yet it's still throbbing and I
think I am beginning to feel the burn of the steroids. fucking hell.
Went to see Comedy of Errors on saturday done by the Rude Mechanincals. Freaking funny show. I had a really good time. The two leads Patrick Mullen and Brian Moors did a very fine job. It was a crazy and funny show. Good times.
Spent a lot of time with Ky, who came up to DC to help me take care of the dogs and stuff and shopped and relaxed and drank. mmm wine.
more later"

ah yes. it's beginning to be one of those days. I'm in a very good mood
today which only means that when I kill my coworker, i'll have a smile
on my face. Everything she's doing on the computer, she does out loud.
Enters a coordinate, I have to hear about it. Something happens or takes
to long, I have to hear about it. Even with my iPod on, she'll talk till
I acknowledge it. I know there must be some kind way to tell her to shut
up but at this point i've let it go so long that I can only think of
yelling at her and strangling her with my tongue. I dont know what that
means.
In other news, the birthday things seem to be coming together. Everyone knows I have celebrating my birthday. I feel odd having so much attention fawned on me but then get disappointed if no one does anything. So hopefully people can make the 23rd at Nation to just hang out and stuff. Maybe make it an old school night where folks that haven't come in a while all come out. I dunno. I'm trying to imvite people but I feel so awkward about it that it's driving me crazy.
Saw a news story about McDonalds new premium coffee and I really want to try it. In the end the story said that 1/3 like it as much as starbucks and dunkin donuts. Obviously I have to try it now and get my coffee woodie going on.
Watched Harry Potter 4 last night. Loved it. Must go reread the books and get all the great stuff that they had to chop out to make it a normal length movie.
Office is freezing today.
Have to work at ZGallerie tonight. Not in the mood. Have been trying to organize my thousands of photos on my computer and man it's hard work. I took 2000 pictures in england alone.
Yeah I think that's all for now."
2006-03-09 14:01:00
oh my god my foot is killing me. aparently, according to my coworkers,
the cortozone is now wearing off and it feels like the lucky charms
leprechaun is tossing shards of glass at it. Its driving me to
distraction. Arg. fucking doctors. well he was a good guy and gay (which
i didn't realize until Ky was with me in the exam room).
in other news, was listening to the Dolly Parton song from Transamerica and was thinking about her from the Academy Awards shows. She is the coolest chick. She was so giddy to meet all the stars and examine hollywood. The glint in her eyes was the cutest. And she still has a huge rack."

2006-03-13 08:32:00
holy crap i just wet my pants. I want to make movies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
check this out: Live action simpsons intro"
2006-03-15 11:10:00
damn damn damn damn. i did it again. i totally, absolutly, and
completely lost my temper. i can't even get into the whole thing because
it makes me angry again. let's just say that you should never patronize
me for real and never question my work ability. alright, long and short,
we have a patch that's 2 weeks late getting here. There was no
installation documentation with it and there were no test procedures
with the documents of change that made the whole thing worth while. The
was a one line corrective action and that's it. For me that's fine but
if we send this out, no one will be able to test because they won't
understand what's going on. So we cancelled the patch, the devs called
and said it was going on and that 'If we need Gloria to make it
understandable for you' we will. I LOST it. Hung up and called her a
cunt in the office and cursed like crazy and totally blew up.
So so so so angry. I was actually shaking. I want a drink."

a day after being a dick and being dicked to - wow what a sentence - I
got a raise. 7% so it's not the greatest was hoping for 10 but it will
do for now.
thankfully today seems to be going much better than yesterday. of course there was the guy who put his microwave popcorn in the microwave and then walked away...for like 5 minutes. Lets just say there was smoke, there was a fire alarm and two fire engines came. I haven't seen the guy since the event and I feel bad for him. It was funny."
2006-03-16 16:17:00
i have a problem. I can't stop blog hopping. I land on one blog and then
i find a link in that one and i use it to go to another. And being the
kind of guy I am, I am fascinated by other people's lives. I want to
know what they do for a living, how they live, what they believe in and
anything that I can gather. I'm like a cyber stalking squirrel with ADD.
It's intriguing. I'm reading now about these two guys that have been
together for awhile and they have 800 miles between them and how they
cope. The just went to the virgin islands on vacation and have run 2
marathons. I can't stop reading."

brain hurts. too much thinking this weekend.
been at the real job all weekend getting this shit down for this thing we do every 6 months or so. It's kinda like an upgrade and certainly like a pain in my ass. but at least I should be able to take off some time this week since I have worked two full days. but it's strangely nice because none of the other pain in the ass people are here. I can get stuff done and not have to worry about anything or anyone getting in my way.
So I know I tend to be a cranky motherfucker, as was pointed out this thursday at nations, on my journal but i really want to make a conscious effort to expand my journalistic range. It used to be all about sex and work and now with the bf my journal is about work. But last night I was watching Cash in the Attic (damn you BBC America!) and got to jounral hopping again and lost a few hours reading this well written, thought provoking and sometimes silly page. I want to write so badly and all i come up with it shite. Drives me crazy. Oh well back to the grind. More bitching later ;)"
2006-03-21 10:56:00
just so everyone knows, i am having the best fucking day. I am trying to
really take my birthday in and enjoy it. Thank you for all the cards and
emails it really means a lot to me. It also means I need to get everyone
else's birthday as I don't think I know anyones! oops.
tonight Ky and I are heading to dinner at Ruth Chris' Steak House (yum!!)
Thursday: please come to Nation if you feel so inclined. I know the prodigy show is there and the regular thursday thing doesn't start till 10. If you get there earlier, it's 35 bucks to see prodigy. I would love to see everyone if they can make it.
I'm off to see if it's snowing outside.
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
2006-03-21 14:02:00
Fucking Bummer
Nation will close it's doors on July 16th to make way for the most boring of sports, baseball.
Way too many memories in that place. I sense a post of reflection later. Official Nation announcement here. Last alchemy is the 13th of July and the last (presumably) Velvetnation will be the 15th. Sigh. Need to get a souvenir. I still have a cup of sand from the Tracks volleyball court."
2006-03-23 09:18:00
ok, so i'm a little more awake now than i was yesterday.
the birthday was excellent. woke up giddy, had cards from the dogs and family and the boy. went to work and everyone was really cool there. And it's funny because I don't remember such a to-do made over anyone else's birthday. Made me feel good.
Then we went to dinner. Oh my god it was so good. Ruth's Chris Steak House is yummy. We had the most delicious poterhouse for 2, shoestring potatoes, delicious salad, a split of White Star, and a nice white from france. Every bite was like heaven. Steak resting in sizzling butter. Good lord! I want more. Ky and I had a wonderful time just chatting and drinking and eating. So good.
Again, tonight is nation. it's part of my birthday week brou-ha-ha which just means that it would be good to see everyone. Again tonight is the prodigy show and the club side for Alchemy doesn't open till 10. Parking may be bad.
Can't wait for Busch Gardens on sunday. it's going to be a whopping 49 degrees! Wheeeeeee"
2006-03-23 09:20:00
oh and south park rocked. for them to get an episode out so fast was
amazing. poor chef
2006-03-24 12:38:00
I am tired.
Thank you to everyone who came out last night and braved the Prodigy crowds to help celebrate my birthday. It was a joy to see everyone as I tried to get over the fact that some of them were there for me. Thanks for all the drinks. That could be why I am so tired and just slightly off kilter today. I really could have stayed in bed all day. This birthday stuff is killing me. :)
I'm glad that everyone had a chance to meet Ky. I know he had a really good time as well. He was a sweetie last night.
Tonight it's work at ZGallerie, party in the country tomorrow and the BUSCH GARDENS on sunday. I am so god damn excited for coasters I can hardly stand it.
now i need water and food and more water.
thanks again"
2006-03-24 13:37:00
why so I feel like i sound more coherent when i'm tired and hungover?
Since I'm basically the boss here today I am getting a shit loaf of odd
questions and I sound like I know what I'm talking about. Freaky.
God i love Sprite.
AND Christopher Moore has a new book out. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

Birthday Week
I wanted to thank everyone again who made my birthday week so much fun. I have never had a birthday week and as tired as I am now I think I'll wait for the next milestone in 5 years for another one. But it was a blast. Thanks for all the cards and emails and ecards and everything. It all wrapped up with heading to Nation on thursday and having a wonderful time. So many people there, made me feel good. Friday I worked and then headed down to Ky's to veg until the party that night. The party was a blast, with food and drink and the most massive bon fire I have ever seen. It was freaking amazing. Sunday Ky and I headed to Busch Gardens and it rocked. There were no lines and we rode evreything under the sun. We ever did stuff that we've never done befre (like those lawnmover engine cars that go around that track). We have out season passes and will be spending lots of time there. Ever though there are only 4 coasters there, it still manages to be a fun park.
So that's it. Now I need my body to recover."
2006-03-30 11:58:00
god damn bitch set me up
not really, i just like saying that.
Ramblins':
If I think the day is going fast and my coworker next to me says it's going slow, what happens?
Hot guy in the hallway looking confused and lost, which is easy in this place. Thankfully seeing the boy this weekend for some relations :) I think was more jealous of his looks than anthing else but whats new about that. :P He had grey suit (light) on, a lime green shirt, short blond hair and tan chisled features but made it work.
I'm going coaster crazy. Boy and I went to Busch Gardens and now I have the taste again. I need more coasters. I read like 5 coaster pages every morning to see what's new. I wanna run the tracks and smear the chain grease all over my naked body....or something. Next...
Tried to do some writing last night and failed miserably. I think since I have such a HUGE problem getting things organized that I never getstarted. I have ideas in my head but they are mearly sparks. I read this poem someone wrote on gay_writers it was so beautiful. I need to stop thinking about how I can't write and just do it. I used to spend all my time writing... argies.
2006-03-30 12:02:00
Is this really me? Well i do like the dedicated and independent...and
there is ALWAYS room for violence :) Ok, it's me.
