Everyone is doing relatively well bonus came in on Thursday one of the computers is now alive again, but windows XP is currently locked in Ariel's laptop's disk drive went to Brandon to see a movie with the missus and the kids which worked out relatively well
I'm thinking I might just switch to freewebs and delete this entirely as there is only so much one can do with blogspot.
Started looking at hotels for ai-kon (July 24-26) and so far, the Delta is the forerunner for the winner. It's connected to the convention center, has a sushi bar and a Japanese garden in addition to all those other hotel things like pool, hot tub, sauna, gym, etc. Puts me in good spirits at least.
Bleh, breakfast time. Hopefully I'll update this a bit later but don't count on it. Sorry :(

Sorry, I've spent a grand total of perhaps 20 minutes in the past two weeks or so on anything resembling online communication these past few weeks. Kind of a combination of Sims 2, work and cold/flu season.
For those of you wondering, I'm currently in the process of being able to swallow solid foods again thanks to a viral infection of sorts. So far the three days of rest have made me feel worse instead of better, go figure.
Will is coming to nights either this week or next so I'm doing away with my quest to go to days. Instead, I've paired with my boss to work together on getting nights to be productive and enjoyable (being 3-4 people a night wears me out after a while ;p).
http://www.playlist.com/playlist/15059745291 I especially recommend The Mission District. That would be my current play list for the month as I don't currently have a music system other than project playlist. The Mission District is a band that I came across on myspace around December and since I couldn't find much on them at the time they kind of fell into obscurity to me. Whilst randomly getting caught up (I need to check my email more than once every two weeks as junk mail seriously piles up ;p) there they were as my profile page song, however the song can't be found on project playlist :(.
Jumping back to the work thing for a moment, I've been offered a day position, trading with Tim. This is not going to happen as I am not about to sacrifice two of my friends so that I can see sunlight. Besides, I'm not going to have wasted all that time and effort for a position that is beneath mine (no offence Tim ^_^).
So that should be about it for the time being, I'll try and be a bit more available but know better than to make any promises.
Okay, so I needed to give some point to it I suppose. I'm getting a bit better at this now, it hasn't quite been a month since the last one.
From a work perspective, I'm officially stuck for at least 6 more months now as I have since forth been coached. It's a term used to imply that "this is for your own good" when in reality it comes across as a death sentence to me. I need false hope at work because I can't have real hope.
However, it's not really the end of the world which is why I haven't really been online all that much in the past month as a culmination of the season, Sims and spending time with my fiance have taken up the free time.
So, basically, no I'm not avoiding anyone imparticular I'm just not being online as much as I used to.
Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth. But the world isn't perfect, and the law is incomplete. Equivalent Exchange doesn't encompass everything that goes on here, but I still choose to believe in its principle, that all things do come at a price, that there's an ebb and a flow, a cycle, that the pain we went through did have a reward, and that anyone who's determined and perseveres will get something of value in return, even if it's not what they expected. I don't think of Equivalent Exchange as a law of the world anymore. I think of it as a promise, between my brother and me. A promise that, someday, we'll see each other again.
