HOME!!
Well I'm back in civilization, and glad to be here where there isn't a casino/bar every block and my cell phone actually works. I met family that I had not seen in a very long time, re-learning names sucked, but other than that they were all very nice. The photoblog has been updated with pictures of family and an ill-named convenience store. Now back to shopping for that new head unit for my car.

in soviet russia, cake mixes you!
Things to do today:
1. Laundry
2. Mail survey thinger
3. Pack
4. Go to Dad's and subsequently a plane to MT
Fun things I've discovered:
1. Listening to 'No Shelter' by RATM with the speakers on either side of me, listening to the guitar switch from the left channel to the right and vice-versa.
2. The velcro-ish noise that my boots make when walking on asphalt.
3. Making lists.

shopping and such
Today, I actually accomplished a lot. This accomplishing came at a price however, I bought the Dr. Martens I've been wanting for about 2 years, 3 pairs of pants, and 2 shirts. One of the pair of pants and the shirts I managed to pick up for about $11 at goodwill, unfortunately I could not locate the other goodwill in town to see what they had. I also finally rented and watched motorcycle diaries, and returned it within 24 hours so I get a $1 credit on my account, yay me.

if i could find a base in cork or in killarney...
# of minutes spent cleaning tubes at work today: 65
# of minutes spent bitching, trying to get out of it: 15
excuses i used: I'm too big; I'm allergic; You're smaller, wouldn't be easier for you to do it? Can't the trainee do it this afternoon? Can you give me about 20 minutes to think up a better excuse than I don't want to?
excuses that worked: 0
bargain half assed work for McDonald's breakfast: priceless
$ value of McD's it got me: 7
I also just returned Driv3r (one of the hardest games I've ever played), House of the Dead: Movie, and Carandiru; a week of violence has ended. So I rented what? you ask? Hitman 2 and The Spongebob Movie just to balance things out so it's a not so violent week.
