Have you ever had a friend, or group of friends, for that matter, that confide something with you they don't want the other member of the group to know?
Wow...this still fits after many months of not having worn it! The question is...does anyone even care? My guess would be no, but someone might surprise me and say maybe.
It's 2:00 A.M. I'm awake. Nervous as hell, and wondering why I can't sleep. 50mg of DiphenHydramine HCl (Tylenol) and I still sit here browsing the web and talking to you. What am I nervous about? I am an extremely marketable person, yet I have been unemployed since the beginning of February? It couldn't be the fact that I am waiting to hear back on whether I got a job or not. You know? I like contracting, I enjoy contracting, but you know what? I want the stability.
So it occurred to me just now that I spend probably most of my time these days with headphones on listening to music and tuning out the world around me. Gosh, I mean talk about being boxed in. I sit here at this desk all damn day five days a week in front of this computer screen and with these headphones on. I might as well be in a sensory deprivation chamber.
So I wanted to delve into an exploration of the social and political implications of the seemingly all-important “interoffice lunch”. What am I talking about? Speak English you say! Well, here’s the thing, I find in my office lunch is a huge affair. I wonder if this is true in all offices. It’s not what is eaten, or where, but who goes with whom that seems to be a really big deal. Why is that? I mean are people, especially in the computer field, so bereft of social company in their outside lives that lunch is a huge social pressure? It’s really quite annoying.
In the new-found tradition of the features section I have made a decision. I love reading random quotes and if any of you are as psychotic as me, you do as well. I have devised a plan to list the most popular quotes of the masses. We do it here on ::A.O::! Now, I will list a few of my favorite quotes. The rules here are easy and I will give you examples.
Ok, so that zer0 thing didn't work out too well ... and well, I was pretty fucking depressed at the time, so it seemed like a good idea. Hell, I'll admit when I'm wrong and I've screwed up ... good thing this isn't one of those times, as the world just wasn't ready for zer0, that's all. ALL HAIL ... THE RETURN OF THE DRUNKEN TH3SPACE! HOOOORAH!
As I found myself jumping from the tree house to the roof in a desperate flee from the cops, I knew that my heart was going to beat out of my chest....or I was going to break something, whichever came first....
It was late autumn and school had just been released for Christmas. Students have a strange reaction to freedom. The simple fact that "School's out!" was enough to pack half of the town's kids into that mall. Besides the constant flow of freedom-drunken students, there were the usual Saturday shoppers, as well as the Christmas caravan. Now, when viewed separately, these three occurrences would not be worth mentioning. However, when their powers are combined...a mysterious and, many times, malevolent force is given free reign.....
I mean, what kind of cop drives a pick-up truck? Only in Georgia I guess...
