I'm just about to head to bed Rexxy :) Not much else. Gonna take the roommate out to breakfast and a movie tomorrow for his birthday

Sounds like a good plan. A bit a breaky an what will ya see?

Just trolling Apple fans and having a blast.

Oh no, don't be THAT guy...

It's fun, specially when they pull a smug reply on how superior Macs are and use semantics as to explain that is not a virus, malware or a trojan.

I'm no Mac lover. I bought one to expand my point of view, and in the end I gave it away for free. But if using one brings a person some sort of strange comfort, then I say live and let live. The price versus quality of hardware as well as OS does not calculate out unless you put a set price on the name. I suppose people pay more to be a member of stranger subcultures. Still, like them or not it is good to have a fairly well accepted alternative. Like choosing sat over cable.

It's not about them. It's about the smug pricks who talk crap on tech boards, it's nice to shut them up for a little while.

Sin'ce it's unlikely that either party is likely to concede I'm not so sure I see the point.

Hey, Apple! Hey Apple, Hey!

KNIFE!!! (cookie if you get the referene!)

Family guy =P

Nope. Annoying Orange

They're all the same to me =P

mm cookies.. :)

I think you just saw what's up with me in my last submission...

I did, yes how about beyond that?

Want to switch either MSN, AIM, or Facebook addresses to chat about it privately?

sure.

There, I PM you my contact details

okie dokie. Be in touch, buddy.

Maybe you'd like to send me your info, so I can add you too? ;)

On the last day of our vacation here in Istanbul. Going back to the U.S. tomorrow.

i hope it wasa great trip. Safe journey!

It was for the most part. Thank you. ^^

What prompted the choice of location?

Family vacation. My mother hadn't been to her homeland in over twenty years since she left and we all needed some time away from U.S. stress.

That's very sweet. I hope you found it enriching.

I had visited six years ago, but that trip was a disaster, so this was a real improvement.

nice place to visit?

Istanbul? Oh heck yeah, there's a lot to do and see. :)

Sounds good to me.

Well I have been on vacation for about a month and a half. Will be going back to work on Aug. 13th. Will miss staying up as late as I like and sleeping in as long as I like. Hope to see the new Total Recall this Sunday and try to make my money last till the end of the month when I get my first check from working this month. Won't be a lot, but it should get the job done for now.

A stay at home vacation can be the perfect tonic. I used to enjoy them lots. Meanwhile though, I actually miss working.

Yes, I can understand you missing work some. I miss mind some as well. It was always a good reason to get out of the house and see others, so I can see why you miss it. Yes, a home vacation are the best. Still it is nice to get out of the house and do something different now and then. I do go and see a movie once a week,so that is something and my D&D game every other Friday. And once a month or so, go to a fur meet.

Social interactivity is good for the spirit.

So I hear, so I hear.

Hoping to get payed eventually! :o

Don't look at me.

I thought it was "Dont move" not "dont make eye contact" when dealing with T-Rexes :)

Im alright i suppose, a bit drained in all areas youve seen my journals. How are you anyway, have you been getting better?

Better is a comparitive term. Not worse, which to me is better, so in a way yeah.

sitting up at 5:30 am enjoying a thunderstorm before heading into work

We had a nice one yesterday. The basement suffered though.

getting my obligations out of the way to go see my grandma whos going through Chemo in the states.

I widh her the best. Some forms of treatment are worse than others, not none are pleasant.

We had the Olympic Cycling event where I live last weekend, thank FUCK things are "Normal" again now + we're not under virtual house arrest

There was a cycling event in our little town not so long ago. It caused some trsffic issues, yeah.

The usual: Making music and writing stories.
How're things with you? What have you been up to lately?

Cleaning. eating, resting. Wowcraft. Counting flowers on the wall.

Just finished my Honeymoon trip with  pissybadger, and we had an amazing time. We saw lots of sights, got a few personal souvenirs, and had quite a lot of personal nights :)

Aside from that, trying to get back into writing consistently and making smaller projects. Seems to be working well so far. Got myself a new car after driving my current one for over 12 years... it was about time I got a new one :)

As for the rest, same ol' thing for the most part.

Honeyoon? How romantic.

I hope to get a little vehicle myself sometime. It'd be nice to be mobile again.

Oh yeah, very romantic and relaxing. It's impressive how old Quebec City looks like those old European cities.

Ah, what happened to your 'old' one? Eventually broke down?

No not the car. I broke down. Loss of my left side made a manual transmission out of thw question for me. I'll get myself an automatic eventually.

Ugh. Well, wish you luck whenever you decide to get yourself another car.

I guess you'd prefer a manual car over automatic if you could? Yeah, I'm way too use to manual car myself.... all my vehicles have been manual transmissions. I just love to play with the shift stick for some reason...

Busy as hell! =P Preparing everything to publish my latest short story, to be precise. It all should be ready around next week =D.

I do wonder if Hell would be a busy place. If so you'd think they would find some efficient shortcuts.

*RLMAO!!* XD Man, I hadn't thought about that! ;-P Now I'm scared 'cause hell might be a bit too much "corporate" to me XP.

corporate hell? now THAT is believable.

I guess so, heh, heh! XP

Work, work... but you knew that I am sure!

That and fetching golf balls.

Every time you write a new journal entry, I keep wondering if it will be the last we ever hear from you, for whatever reason.

That could apply to any one of us if you think about it. I intend to grace you all with my presence fo an exasperatingly long time.

Setting up an apartment after an exhausting move in, after helping family all week after my grandfather took ill.

I hope it was an upgrade move. Good luck to your grampy.

It was, moving from my parent's place to my own with my boyfriend :3 And thank you for the thoughts, we're hoping for the best.

Oh that is a good move then. have fun decorating.

Already started, gotta unpack all my books now

Unpacking takes eons. There is no avoiding that.

Not much. Just the same old same old.

Surely you can do better than that?

Well it's the truth. Just been playing games, watching TV and just the same old stuff I do. Day in and day out.

I'm going broke from medical bills and car payments :D

it's good to have a car though isn't it?

What games? What shows?

Mass Effect 3 mostly.... not a big TV watcher. But enjoying not doing chemo this week! Feeling good!

Oh? Which cocktail are you on? We can compare notes.

Oxiliplatin and Folfox... aweful stuff. One gives me nerve damage, the other makes me sick and tired.

Yuck, I know wht it is to be as such. Keep on truckin'

I dont mean to complain. I dont have it too bad, they already cut me all up and removed the cancer, so I should just be grateful and look forward.

I do wish you the best though. I admit I havent been keeping up with your (or really anyone's) journals so I'm not sure how you are, but it's probably worse than me. ;/

I'm working on the long road of regaining control of my left side. It will probably take years, but as you said. I look forward. Plenty of meds for pain, and other nasty stuff, and seeing how bad some have it whern at clinics, I feel fortunate. It's no picnic, but I am not one to worry.

Send me a line if you ever want a chat

I'm always up for a chat. And you dont strike me as the kind of person who confuses attempted cyboring as chatting, which is a plus! So I shall.

anytime

Home. Didn't go anywhere today. Just idled, talked to my brother on the phone for more than 3 hours, did stuff with the computer and even some art as I try to go back to drawing.

Sounds like a good set of things to do on a lazy Sunday.
