| Fargo Update...
I shall arrive in Fargo on Thursday, in the mid to late
afternoon, and leaving Sunday late afternoon to early evening. I am not entirely sure what the plans are other than
that I will be staying at Phil's and watching the coorination on
Friday. DOOM comes out over the weekend too. The movie will
PROBABLY suck, but maybe Phil will see it with me.
Phil... what is your schedule for working? thanks!
VOTE RACHEL HALL for HOMECOMING QUEEN!!

What? An update?
Well it is kinda cheating! It is only 'cause I need something and Phil
might stumble upon this update! (especially if I tell him I updated on
his blog thingy)
Well here is the scoop, Rachel is now a candidate for Home Coming Queen, so
that means I pretty much, absolutely, without question must attend this coronation
thing on Friday, October 21. Well as it turns out we have a two day
"Fall Break" at Billy Mitch over that Thursday and Friday. That
means I will probably work Thursday morning and roll into Fargo
Thursday night.
Rachel cautioned me that, according to Jordan,
she would be super busy with all kinds of silly homecoming things, so I need a
futon to sleep on, and an old chap to keep my company. Would anybody
named Phil know of any person who might have such an accommodation?
I also have a funny Rachel story to share.
I got Loren, a.k.a old school "Fro-Back", hooked on Warhammer 40,000
Dawn of War. They released an expansion called "Winter
Assault".
So to get Loren pumped up to play a little Dawn of War, I would always ask him,
"What comes after the night of peace?" and he would answer "DAWN
OF WAR!"
So in order to get him excited for the expansion, I changed it up a bit.
I would ask him, "Hey Loren, what comes after the summer of nonaggression?"
(though I realize some answer involving autumn might appear, I took my
chances) To this Loren would, of course, answer, "WINTER
ASSAULT".
So on the night of its release, Rachel was asking me what was with my MSN name
that said "Hey Loren, what comes after the summer of nonaggression?".
I explained to her the question and correct answer regarding the original
Warhammer game, I said when I ask Loren "what comes after the night of
peace?” he would answer, "DAWN OF WAR!"…
So then I asked her, "So then Rachel, what comes after
the summer of nonaggression?" and she diligently replied, "The
winter of... PUNCHES IN THE FACE!!!!"
I laughed for 2 minutes straight, thinking to myself, "that is sooooooo
what Phil would have said!"

| The Keys to Your Heart | | You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free. | | In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. | | You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring. | | You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please. | | Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. | | Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. | | You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. | | In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily. |
So I picked Horse for the first one, mostly because it was
the most practical... since I am not sure what "end of the world"
means, I thought it would be handy to have a good work animal with me for
roughing it during Armageddon. I almost took the rabbit because it would
be easier to carry... but all in all I end up with some honky about wanting
unbridled thingers... whatever. Next time I am picking Cow whenever I can and Snake for all others.
Edit:
While rereading the questions, I think I choose
answers that really had nothing to do with animal "personalities" like
if they were cuddle, or friendly, but if they were cool. Like I
said I would be a cat to be all agile, and a Lion cause they are tough,
and I wanted to chat with a birdy since it can fly and things, maybe
that is the exercise, but really, what kinda HONKY was that anyhow?!!

OMG another update? Is this thing broken? Is it
self-updating?
The answers are yes, no and well, no. The real deal with all the updates
is that I am really, really, really board. No TV. No
homework. Rachel is busy; Loren and Matt live too far away… no things to
do. I even brought like 70 DivX movies from home. That'd be cool,
'cept I watched all of them previously. Oh well! It'll happen!
I have recovered from sickness. For one such as I, who hath never missed
a day of work or college due to illness, I sure did feel silly calling in on my
second day due to the flu. But I had the mega-doom death bug virus...
either that or some bad pizza from the pizza shop up north of here.
The doom that followed entailed 8 or 9 throw-ups and multiple explosions from
my bottom, sometimes almost simultaneously. It was a day and some
'til I could release anything solid (yeah... too much info? well you don't HAVE
to read it now do you!!).
No Revenge of the Sith for me for a while. Work and people to go with are
preventative measures!
Aegia has announced board partner = Asus. That is good.
I am not paid until NEXT Tuesday, so until them, I am 40 % broke, yet inbetween
now and pay time I am supposed to go to some thing with Loren on Saturday and
maybe Sith on Sunday, yikes.
Well I kind of come in and out of work as I please, since I am 44 % independent
of other peeps. Because of this, I only have to make sure I am there for
8 hours (no time clock to punch in or out of) and I can lunch at my leisure
(assuming once again I do the 8 hours). I have to be there from 9-3:00,
but I can work around those times as I please. As I please has been
8-4:30, with lunch at about 2:30. That way the last hour and a half is cake.
Rachel asked me to include a message that she sucked and that everyone else
rocked, so there it is. “Rachel sucks, everyone else rocks!”
Okay, well since only Rachel, (the occasional Jah-reed and Nadz) and Phil read
this, and since only Phil comments, I could get a "bling bling"
comment from Phil, and a tongue lashing (not the good kind) from Rache.
So to prevent the tongue lashing, though "bling bling"s are cool, and
because she is the bestest girlfriend ever (seriously now, Phil, you know she
rocks the hizzy) and she is a very cute and hot little tamale, I will retract
the Rachel sucks comment, and change the statement to "Everyone rocks,
especially ‘Bling Master’ Phil, occasional Xanga readers ‘Jah-reed’ Jah-reed
and ‘Didn’t make any Carmel Rolls’ Nadz and ‘Rockin'’, ‘Best Girlfriend Ever’
Rachel."
Tomorrow is also the first potential grade viewing day for Billy Mitch,
however, my teachers have like a whole friggin’ month to finish their stuff, so
I think tomorrow at viewer time, only 1 and at most 2 grades will be posted.

| So I started work on Monday.
I am now at US Bank doing something with cost and trusts and estates, I
am not sure what I am doing yet, 'cause Monday was all orientation
stuff. Tuesday I was to have diversity training, but that got
nixed cause I got way sick and missed my second day. I threw up
multiple times, like at least 8 and stuff shot out the other end on a
regular basis too. I shook that off though, and am planning on
working it up today, now I only have a small headache, probably a combo
punch from lack of eats, dehydration and sleeping on my neck a little
funny.
OMG and update you are thinking... how often will this occur? Well, I would say still infrequent, but you never know!!
