kageisukeWhat the heeeellll is up with my computer? I have ANOTHER trojan! I either had them before and never knew or they just suddenly discovered me. Son of a bitch! Have to burn this shit with FIRE.
Otherwise, everything is fine. Except that's a lie. My mother shrank yet another one of my sweaters. Line Dry. LINE DRY. WRRRRYYYY. I have NEVER shrunken something in the dryer. Ever. Not pants. Not sweaters. Not my clothes. Not her clothes. Nothing. And yet whenever she asks me for a certain color to wash so she has a full load, because laaawd forgive us for using the large or HEY even medium setting on our washer, I am filled with dread upon handing over my clothing for fear of shrinkage. It's taken me a few months to get clothes for work. I'd been wearing the same things to work in a revolving schedule of about 2 weeks. Then Christmas season came and I walked away with lots of new stuff for the new year so I wouldn't freeze to death. :| I might anyway, if they all end up being belly tops, and then I couldn't wear them to work ANYWAY.
Fail.
Total count. 2 Pairs of paints. Somewhere between 3-5 shirts.
GRAGH. She wouldn't shrink so many if they didn't end up her size. D< Then she recycles them from me and has new stuff to wear. Damn my long legs!
Work related: Oh man. VDOT is about to start up. Once I have the contact list, I'm gonna be JETTIN up a STORM. aka e-mailing shitloads of people. We're supposed to start on the 26th. 8D;;; *needs mental assistance*
Home related: I have started gelling ALL of my paperwork together. ALL of it that has been spread around my room for years now. I have a plastic bin than can hold hanging folders and I'm going to file all of that shit away. So far, I've done the paystubs [that I've found] for my current and last job. Started on my school loan papers, and have at least organized everything else into piles. Once I finish that, my desk will be cleaned off! Thank kami-sama. Then I can hook in my new speakers and leave them on my desk beside my monitor without fear of the JUNK pushing it off. That's why my old ones are on the floor beneath my desk. Once of them doesn't even work...
Books: I finished Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy series. I was amused. Arthur has shittastic luck, how 'bout that? I started AND finished [in about 3 days] Obsidian Butterfly. The next in the Anita Blake series.
.............EDWARD IS AWESOMETASTIC. And no, not sparkly Edward. I'm talking sociopathic, assassin for hire, lycanthrope hunting, vampire hating Edward~ The book was aaaallllll about him. *cries softly* It was amazing 8DDD He amuses the SHIT out of me and having a book full of him was the best thing ever. I missed the other characters, but no one holds a candle to Edward, unless it's Jason and his perversions that will ONE DAY get his ass killed by Jean Claude. Or hell. Richard. He always puts his hands where they don't belong~ Then there's Asher and Damian and -*stutters to a halt* Oh fuck me. :| I'll stop rambling. Next on my list is The Green Mile. It should be at the library today~
A+ Cert: Okay. It's past time to start this up, for seriously. I have to get a schedule together. I need to cut back on RPing, and that's kinda sad because I JUST started getting back into it again. Enjoying it again after a time of just feeling so BLAH. I guess I'll use it as a reward for good habits? Or something.
I also must say hooray for freedom \o/ Sometimes, when people let you go you should feel it's a blessing and not a curse. Or it could be both, who knows. Either way, time to buck up and get my ass in gear. I also must latch on tighter. My f-list, you cannot escape me =DDD
Story: Stalled. I was hoping it would go on for a while even once November was over, but nope. I hit the author's block that I had to force myself through before. Now it's like I don't have that motivation. I think I'm going to go back and start adding information. I need to do it anyway and trying to write more at the moment just isn't going anywhere. I think I have the uniforms stabilized, so now I can add all of those details to the writing. Rings, earrings, I'm just not as detail oriented as I wish I was because I forget those things all the time. My observation skills are obviously not going towards human interactions. Faaiiil~
Geh. Back to work. Orders to do, and TONS of sign-offs I have to finish. TONS. The stack is, like, 1.5 times my middle finger high. *sobs* And that was not including the small stack I took off to do today. *throws self down stairs* Somebody help me T^T

Date: 2009-01-05 06:57 pm (UTC)One visit home, for both my sister and myself, she shrunk TWO pairs of jeans each.
Which wouldn't be a big deal, except mine were 7 for All Mankind and Citizens of Humanity... and my sister's were Miss Sixty!
Mom offered to replace them... we took the cash that she offered and thought jeans were worth and DID NOT TELL her that each pair of jeans had cost between 130 and 160... and were most definitely "tumble dry low to make them not crispy, then AIR DRY!"
We figured she'd kill us more if she knew how much we'd paid for jeans. Now she knows... and also knows we'll wear them for YEARS. (She still wouldn't buy them for us. ;)
(We were Los Angeles/NYC girls at the time... designer denim was "kinda" a "need". GAH I miss those jeans.)

Date: 2009-01-05 07:16 pm (UTC)I can't 'put in dry then take out'. I would forget, then come back and it would be a. shrunk; or b. forgot to come back to take them out [after only setting dryer for 10 minutes] and have a back up in the washer as I dry them, shove a load in the washer and let the others sit.

Date: 2009-01-06 01:03 am (UTC)Now stop talking about stuff in the future. D< I just finished that book and there are still more out that I haven't read. Train wreck or not, I doubt I won't stop getting lawls out of this series.
I've learned quite a bit about guns 8D Which means I didn't know anything before tohohono subject
