The Good and the Bad~!

General
So a few things have been going on with me recently and I figured I should just throw down a journal because I have a half an hour before work and maybe someone out there will be interested in reading it. x3
Good:
1) I got a major promotion at work I'd been working towards for some time, one that'll enable me to earn more money doing a fantastically better job -- less constant effort, longer breaks, with co-workers I get along with very well, as well as more hours at a significantly better rate. I won't take the position full-time until one of the senior members retires in October, but right now I'm still doing it most of the time anyways due to how many people are on vacation~ <3
2) I got accepted into the Final Fantasy XIV Beta, something I've been looking forward to for a long time -- I had a friend who got into the Alpha, so I got to see the pre-pre-release version, and the idea of playing the Beta is pretty exciting since I played a fair bit of Final Fantasy XI in my time, and XIV is looking to be quite a worthy successor~
3) I got a nice new bedroom set with an awesome queen-sized mattress that was so low on sale, I simply couldn't refuse~ It's about time, because prior to that, I'd been sleeping on a single bed my whole life -- if there's anything you should upgrade, it's your bed, since a person spends like, at least 1/3rd of their life in it, I think~ l3
4) Fuck, I have 1,150 watchers, Jesus Christ. I haven't uploaded anything in over a year. x3 I've been feeling particularly Yoshi-tastic lately, though, I will have you know~ Maybe my lack of proper computer will compel me to act upon it~ l3
Bad:
1) The Final Fantasy XIV Beta installer required Windows XP Service Pack 3, so I went to go get that shit -- I installed it, and Windows exploded irreparably. x3 It blue-screens me anytime I try and load Windows in any mode, and even my Windows XP install CD blue-screens (after failing to detect my hard drive.) So... shit. x3 I'm using my laptop now, and I might have to take my hard drive out, attach it to my laptop and backup everything, as that's really what I'm afraid to lose. :x This might coax me into finally upgrading my desktop as it has sorely been needing... was top of the line 4 years ago, and now you can spend $700 and get something way better today~ l3
2) Been stuck on Midnight shift for three weeks, and it's so hard to resist sleeping all day -- seriously, of this week I only woke up and stayed up one day for three hours prior to work -- every other day I've slept from 10:00am to like, 9:00pm. x3 Damn right I'm good in bed -- I can sleep for days~ l3
So like yeah~ <3
That's all she wrote~

also msn
But yeah, the three weeks of nightshift is rather lousy.. xx Not to mention the computer problem. The one I gave you did the same thing, I take it?
If you feel like driving 12 hours and/or forking over a wad of cash for a flight~!
Would be spiffy, however. l3
Patamons may not be involved in the FF series, but I can still lend a hand...or something else ^^;
I'm really glad you got the promotion you've been after. Be sure to record lots of videos of Final Fantasy XIV~
They are totally the reason you got the promotion.
Nothing else can compare to them.
Or when you're working your life away. x3 Seems like as soon as you graduate high school, life goes into fast-forward. x3
