Growing Pains
So, I’m having a bit of trouble today. I love my Tumblr, the theme is hot shit and I get to talk about a lot. My problem is I’m trying to actually get a web presence for some projects I’m working on and be more easily recognized. This is really hard to do with tumblr.
The other big problem I’m having is Tumblr makes my ideas very monolothic. I have one place, with very...
You squirrelized a song about a cancer patient? WTF…

Can't Sleep...
Just got back. It’s 5:15 AM or 0515 hours, since I’m on duty. Anyway, I can’t really sleep so I’m just sitting here in the (almost) dark waiting for it to be morning. I’m not really in the sleeping mood so I figured I would just hang out.
I’m committing such a crime - I’m typing while eating chips. GASP.
Politics...
John: You know Barack Obama's font that he uses on everything? Well I found it and I downloaded it!
Christine: So I'm guessing your voting for Obama...?
John: Yea, but not because of his font...Well actually kinda.

It's Here!
My MacBook arrived and the tracking says it was delivered but I’m not allowed to pick up packages until after 4:00 PM. I’m so mad. This is such a tease. I’m going to enlist the help of my RA … if I can find her :/

Delivery Exception
I left my Midterm to an email from FedEx stating that a “scheduled delivery” was refused because the “customer of business was not available/open”. What the hell? I called my mom to see what she thought and she’s like “well, maybe you can put a note on the door”. Last I checked, I don’t OWN DellPlain Hall.
So I’m not sure what’s going...

Geri's Midterm
This morning was my midterm for Intro to Theatre w/ Geri. It’s my only midterm and the only class I ever have to actually do work for. Anyway, everyone’s been freaking out for a good week or two trying to get their index cards ready and studying terms and it just makes me sick because I don’t study - I can’t. Don’t ask me why, but if it’s not something I want to...
You should tumblr that.

Soggy Sandwich
Trav: My sandwich is soggy. You know what's worse than a soggy sandwich?
Me: I don't know. What?
Trav: Wet socks. There's nothing worse than wet socks. You know what's worse?
Me: AIDs?
Trav: Ok, true.

I Ordered It
Tonight, when I got home from rehearsal I ordered my new MacBook! I pretty much got the top of the line version of the MacBook with upgraded RAM, Hard Drive, processor speed, accessories, etc.
This is what I just got from Apple. Feel free to be jealous:
Your order has been received and will ship as the items become available. If you have any questions, please contact Apple Store Online...

Comments? Please?
So, I really want to add comments to my blog. But Disqus, the global multi-site commenting system is butt-ugly so unless they allow me to use my own CSS file for their comments, I’m not going to use it.
Tumblr, so I’ve been told, is working on a system that will allow other people to post information and text to your blog and you can approve it but has no plans of a comment system....

The Debate
So I downloaded the final presidential debate from last night on iTunes and I’m finally able to sit down and watch it. Sure, I have class right now but whatever - it’s an introduction to sound, I think I’ll be fine.
This debate is pissing me off. I’m so tired of the games these people play. I’m really liking Barack Obama so much more everytime I hear him talk....
If John McCain mentions “Joe The Plumber” one more time, I’m...

Nope, No Pro
So after watching the Apple Special Event Keynote address and taking a look at the new Macbook and Macbook Pro, I decided against getting the Pro.
The new Macbook and Macbook Pro are made out of the same material, are the same thickness, have the same keyboard, screen, graphics chip, LED display, glass trackpad and hard drive sizes. What sets them apart? Screen size, a Firewire 800 port and a...

EMT Shift # 1
So tonight was my first shift as an EMS Attendant at Syracuse University Ambulance. I was a little worried as to what it was going to be like and had no idea what to expect. When I got here it was a little crowded with people but it calmed down to just myself, the crew chief and the driver as well as the dispatcher.
Right now, it’s 3:16 AM and I’m still on duty for another 5 hours...

First Shift
So tomorrow (technically today since I’m writing this at 1:14 AM), I’m working my first shift at SU Ambulance as an Attendant. I have to complete a probationary period and once that’s done and I’m a full member I can complete their driver training program and be a Driver and get my EMT-B certification for 6 (free) SU credits.
I’m kind of nervous, because even though...
I seriously cannot picture getting turned on by porn. ever.

Cosmos Pizza
I’m sitting on Marshall street waiting for my pizza to be done from Cosmos. I’m really getting tired of them. The other day they got my order wrong and when I called back they were really really bitchy about it. Then today I went in to get a few slices of BBQ pizza for me and Trav and the guy was like “you gotta get a whole pie or I can like throw some BBQ sauce on like a regular...

I'm Now A Contributing Member of Society
I got my absentee ballot for the presidential election yesterday. It’s pretty exciting. Figures though, the first time I can legally “click the clickers” I have to fill out a damn paper ballot and mail it in. Pshh.

One Of Those Days - The Good Kind!
So today has been a really great day and I have no idea why. I took a shower at like 3:40 AM this morning for whatever reason I still don’t know. I knew I was going to be dead this morning. I left my blinds and window open so early on I heard construction and kept waking up and falling back to sleep. Anyway, I woke up BEFORE my alarm clock rang and even though I was a little tired I decided...

Site Update: Minor Changes
So over the course of the day, I tinkered and did some minor modifications to my blog.
Rotating Title Block. The “title block” at the top of the site that used to just display static text, not can rotate between however many messages I choose. Right now I have about 10, and each time you refresh the page or re-visit my blog it will change. I’m working on a really cool thing...

Phantom Pooper Strikes Again
So there was a lot of commotion going on in the hallway so I opened the door to see a lot of my floor kind of standing around. Apparently, someone pooped in the girl’s shower… again. This is the third time it’s happened, and the first time I’ve actually seen it. Apparently, because our RA warned everyone about this already the girl’s bathroom is going to be locked...

Default Pictures
I hate when people make their default picture on Facebook or MySpace them making out with someone. That’s so unattractive. And what if I just met you? When I search for you on Facebook how am I supposed to figure out who you are if you’re sucking some dude’s face? Get a room people.

Crappy Start, Awesome Finish
So this weekend was destined to suck. Mainly because I really don’t have a weekend. I had to see Steel Pier on Thursday night, which ran until 11 and then I hung out here for the rest of the night. I’ve been really tired lately. I started rehearsal for my ASM assignment, Rimers of Eldritch. The rehearsal schedule is Tuesday - Friday from 6-10:30 and Saturday - Sunday from 1-5:30....
Is It Iced Coffee Weather? →
This is so cool. Everytime I’m in need of some caffeine (which seems to be every day lately) I’m always wondering if it’s weird if I get a Frappucino or a Coollata or something like that, but I guess now I won’t have that problem!

I can be the worst decision maker especially when choosing between iced and hot before I’ve had my coffee in the morning. (via bbbrad)
