The American Overclocked Otaku

Yes, I managed to get out of work, today. Mostly because I didn’t think my job didn’t need me anymore after all the sites I’ve done in the past three weeks. TPH was always kept in mind as a temporary job, after all; and as such, when only one site with three wells was ready, I figured my company would no longer require my valuable services.

..Well, I was wrong (as I found out an hour ago), and I’m going to work for most of the rest of the week. >.< Which sucks big, floppy donkey dick.

In either case, I slept in. And to a person who’s spent the last three weeks getting up at 4:00, it’s a godsend. Yes, I can be the biggest slacker known to man. No, I have no shame over that. What’s more, I spent several hours of today relaxing upon the new furniture in my finished basement, watching something I’ve recently bought with what I could pull away from bills. Discs 2 and 3 of Samurai Champloo. Yeah, I know it’s still on Adult Swim. But like the dinosaur, it is becoming an extinct species. Before, it had roamed free in its natural habitat every weekday during the night. Now, the people at Cartoon Network have whittled its species down to every Sunday night. Soon, it will be but a pleasant memory beyond those who possess the series on DVD or copied material (Whom I lovingly refer to as “Butt-Pirates”); such is the fate off most, if not all anime. FLCL suffered a similar fate; the only exception to that is that I still lack the DVD’s for it. x.x Maybe that’ll change, when I finally get some income flowing in.

In either case, I managed to overcome my OCD towards watching a series in chronological order. And yes, I’m pretty sure it’s OCD if I buy Disc 2 of a series and am reluctant to watch it until I watch the first in its entirety. But…Yeah; I enjoy the series quite a bit. Granted, hip-hop’s never been my thing, but I can’t help but enjoy how it fits in…In a weird sort of way. =3 Besides, it has its moments where it kinda tugs on my heartstrings ever-so-slightly. Granted, that’s not so hard to do, but the movies/series that can do that without earning my cynical attentions is worth keeping. n.n

As for work, I’m beginning to hate it. Welcome to the real world, huh? But seriously, if anyone wants to get themselves on my bad side, all they’d have to do is wake me up early every night and have me drive around and/or work for 9 - 11 hours out of every day. My job is currenrtly wearing on two big pet peeves of mine: getting me up early in the morning, and restricting my personal time almost rediculously thin. Any benefits I would recieve from working overtime are wasted on the fact that all but a small percentage is going straight to my parents. Yeah; they’re pretty much pulling a 180* on me when it comes to paying for college. And they say that although my bills for this month have been paid, I owe them for all of the times they paid my bills. My mom’s made the grand estimate of $1,800.

…So they pretty much own my ass until the day they die. a.a Lovely.

…Okay, I was busy again.

It’s not like I -try- to be…But damn it, it’s been hard, lately! First I have difficulty in figuring out what I want to type, and then second-guessing myself…Hell, I’ve been wanting to fill out a post about how much I hate Scientology for years now to no avail. ~.^ Not because I lack ammunition, mind you, somuch as that whenever I think about it I just get depressed as to how many people believe in such complete and utter bullcrap. But that’s neither here nor there.

What I want to know is, why is my only lesbian friend explaining her sex life to me?

Okay, Choujin-chan (My only lesbian friend. x.x) is someone I’ve known for years. I use the word “known” loosely, since we haven’t seen each other for years, and even when we did know each other we only talked on-and-off. And y’know, as stated in a prior post, she sometimes worries me. u.u Normally I wouldn’t give a damn, but I can’t help but feel a bit empathetic towards her. I guess it’s a protective attitude, or something…I dunno. Well, we haven’t talked in ages. x.X At least a month and a half. And then she instant-messages me and tells me that she’s in California.

…Wait…WHA!? What the fsck is she doing in California!?

Living with a woman she met recently on the internet, of course. She’s head-over-heels in love with her. After breaking up with another internet relationship a little under two months ago. It’s the most perfectly normal thing to do, chase after a woman one has known for less than a couple months. I’d do it. I know everyone else would do it. Hell, I couldn’t imagine anyone else thinking that’s a little too quick for such a big step.

o.o;; Note the sarcasm. Bask in it. Sarcasm is the evil cousin of Anger. Anger is a path to the Dark Side.

>.< And then she tells me that she lost her “Virginity” in a Best Buy. And I’m not talking about just saying “Oh, I lost my virginity in a Best Buy! =D” (Although she said that first…). No, she went into explicit detail. Not as explicit as I could be, but explicit enough to give me a pretty good mental image. x.X;; Okay, aside from the ethics of whether or not that’s really “Losing one’s virginity”…The really sweet, innocent, naive part of me is saying that I should be glad that she thinks of me as enough of a friend to tell me about such a momentous occasion in her life. Most people would probably have lost touch (Most did!). Not only did this woman not hate me for being a male, she’s probably the person I’ve kept in touch with the most since I left Selby. She follows her heart more than her head, obviously, but…Well, we all have our faults, right?

…Of course, the rest of me is shouting “DUDE! She’s telling you about her sex life!” ::Sighs softly:: I’m not going to get into it any more than I already have, and I wish her the best with her new girlfriend in California. But…x.X Okay. No more from me.

…

…No, seriously.

Anyways, I’m an Environmental Technician, again. =3 Hence why I haven’t been posting; I’ve been working 50 - 60 hour weeks for a little under a month, now. Granted, it isn’t a permanant job, but it’s enough to get a steady flow of income in until I either find a new job or they tell me they don’t have any more work for me.

…x.x I’m going to post again later, when I have a bit more energy; I found out recently that I’m getting tomorrow off work, so I’m happy in either case.
