Secrets

So last night was really good… Minus a time frame of about 2o minutes when Andrew and I played, “Lets tell some secrets”. That part wasn’t so much fun.

Went to the gym and did another 400 calories on the machines.

Came to work… 11 hour day today. 10 hours tomorrow and probably another 10 on Thursday. For those of you keeping track that’s a planned 47 hours this week… But it’ll probably end up being more then that. 🙁

Tonight I plann on sleeping in, getting up, watching some TV and then studying. Coming into work a little late…

Anyways, time to get back to it.

Laters all.

It’s RAINING, OMG!!!

People here freak the fuck out when it rains…..

They can’t drive in the rain, and when they DO venture out, they drive SO SLOW… Because heaven forbid the GIANT SUV’s and tucks they drive, can’t mother fucking handle a little rain.

And THEN we get people who call in and say, “OMG, it’s raining, I can’t make it in today.”

To them, I have this to say: I lived in mother fucking IOWA for 22 years…. WHERE IS SNOWS!

I’d like to see them drive in that.

I can only recall one day when the snow kept me confined to my house… That was Val-day, back when I was dating Adam, we had all that ice the day before, and then it snowed like a foot or something…. Much like it did last week.

IT’S JUST RAIN!!! Get OVER IT!

You will survive.

Test Soon…..

I have to take the ICND test soon… This week… Wed probably.

I feel so unready for it right now, but whenever I review, I always say to myself…. I know that. Or I get this.

But there’s just so much that I still don’t really understand, and since I don’t have access to a lab full of cisco routers like most people do, I can’t test my knowledge on the actual configuration of these things… I’m getting book smart, but not reality smart. It sucks.

Also the syntax for things change so much. Things to me which seem like they should have the same syntax just don’t…

access-list

access-group,

dialer-list

dialer-pool

dialer-class

dialer-group

I just get so confused as to when to use which one, and what the fucking syntax is for them… I just really hope that the test routers have the full help commands installed on them. If they don’t, I’ll be fucked. I think that I do pretty well on the multi-choice part, it’s the sim part that hurts me. 🙁 I’m so nervous for this test.

And also, the company hasn’t re-paid me yet for my last test, which is really annoying. I took it nearly a month ago… That’s $200 for the tests they owe me, plus $65 for the books… And then once I buy the books to start my next tests, and pay for this test they’ll owe me $465, assuming I pass on the first try. It’s just really annoying not having that money.

Alright, This weekend…

I spent a lot of time sitting around my house. Friday I didn’t do anything, but stayed up pretty late not doing it… I love all the crazy dating shows that are on at like 3am. lol.

Saturday went out and did a whole bunch of random things. Went to CompUSA for the second time in two weeks… I REALY REALLY hate that store. I yelled at like two employees after they pissed me off….. Best line of the day…

“Could you go look it up then, cause I don’t keep a computer up my ass to look things up like that”.

I HATE that store… If everyone stopped shopping there and they went out of business, I won’t give a shit…. Honestly I don’t see why people go there in the first place…. They are over priced and if you WANT To buy something that you have to have an employees help for, you have to literly CHASE them down.

Now, I bet you are all asking, well what were you doing there then?… Because I had a gift card there, and it had to be spent. Otherwise I would never step foot in that store.

After that I went to petsmart and bought the kitties a new toy/food/litter… Then it was off to costco where I bought $100 of food. Then to Vons for some more food, and then I bought a nice LCD monitor for my computer.

From there it was back home and I didn’t leave again all night. (It was another late night too)

Got up about 12:30 today and sat around the house for a little bit, then went up and picked up Andrew. Brought him back to my place and gave him his B-day gift. Spent the rest of the night at my place with him watching movies and shit.

Drove him back to Chapman and then went and worked out….

Now I’m here at work.

Laters all.

Stressed

Too many responsibilities at work can make you rather grouchy now. You’d rather be off with your friends in an enjoyable social setting. But you are overcommitted and just cannot do what you’d like. It’s really not as bad as it seems. Focus on your chores early in the day. Just be sure to leave yourself some open time for relaxation in the evening.

God, ain’t that the truth…

I’m really stressed out right now… I can’t do anything, I’m trying to study, but I’m sitting here worrying about other things, and I can’t get my mind to focus.. It’s annoying as all get out.

This last chapter is really confusing the hell out of me too.. Fucking Frame Relay!

There’s just too many accronyms.. And WAY too many Q.* and T1.* ITU/ANSI documents to memorize!

Fucking shit.

I think today is brakes.. I’m going to call them at 7 and see if they have a courtesy shuttle… And then tomorrow or Friday I’m going to be getting my Cali Plates/Lisc… I just have to find my Passport and SS card. And find out what the hell I need to prove “odometer mileage certification” Whatever.

Fuck this state.. They fucking rip you off right and left… And I just read that California has the worst Student to teacher ratio in the country and is WAY below average for it’s income to public school ratio as well. (IE, here in cali only 2.5% or something of your income is being spent on the education system, most states it’s far higher and here in cali it’s dropped 1.5% in the last 10 years).

Gah, laters all.

Fucking New Year

I HATE the new years…

Everyone makes these stupid resolutions to go and work out and get fit and shit… And it causes the gym to get PACKED with all these stupid fat rude people hogging all the machines… Gah! You know you’re just going to stop after 3 weeks, or less anyways, so WHY BOTHER?!?!

In good news though, there were TWO really hot hot boys that I got to shower with tonight… One is there like every night, but I got to see him naked tonight, and OMG! He’s WAY HOT, and totally gay, he has this nice round ass, and he’s perfectly tan all over. Rarrr. I couldn’t stop staring at him… Thankfully he has his back to me the whole time… Then this other guy was right next to me and he was REALY hot as well. ::creams pants::

Umm, I’m a little worried about work right now. They want me to do the 6.0 Deploy tomorrow night. But I’ve only been walked through the deploy process ONCE, and that was VERY quickly. I have no idea how that’s going to work out.

I got my box of stuff today too. That was excciting, it was like christmas all over again!

Not too much else going on here… I did 400 calories, and 35 minutes at the gym tonight. I’m up to 183, which is now officially 20 pounds heavier then my lightest was, like a year ago now. :'( I will get back down to that by this summer. I swear! Even if it means having lots and lots of sex… And VERY little to eat.

So from now on, when I say NO… It means NO for food. Damnit.

Laters all.
