Killing The Social Calender
Lately, seeing as I've been working two jobs, I've realized that my social calender, which wasn't exactly bulging with activities, has been effectivly taken out.
Most days I get to work now at 9, out at 5, then go to my second job by 5:30/6:00pm. I get out of that job anywhere from 11:00pm to Midnight, and on the weekends, around 1am.
Being that it's pretty mindless - organize movies, and reshelve them when they come back - I don't really mind it.
It gives me time to think.
Yesterday as I put back the entertainment that so many people had brought back earlier in the day, I got to thinking about a lot of people that have two jobs. Some of them have to have them, or they won't have enough to eat, or to pay to keep the lights on in their house. Me, I took the extra job to pay off some old debt, and re-coop some of the pay that I've lost at my current place of employment.
The only problem is that my social calender is now limited to a half-day.
I'll have to see if I can pencil "pet the dog" in for Saturday...

Aww you have to pet your puppy every day! May I ask, what is the silver box thing behind your head in your pic? Looks like another screen but not like i've seen before?
Don't work so hard, it's not healthy.
There it is! The question that I get emailed the most. In that picture that I posted, there is a silver box behind my gargantuan cranium. It's got a window in it, and cables run to it.
That is my computer. Yes, it lights up. Yes, that IS a light-up keyboard next to me, and yes, that is a flat panel display that I have.
Took me months to save up for the thing, but let me tell you - It was worth it!
....and yes. My computer does have a name. Actually, all computers do. Windows gives them a name when you install it. But I know how to change the name of a computer.
My computer's name is Titan. :O)
When you plug in a new Mac, one of the first questions it asks you is what you would like the computer's name to be.
So does a PC.
It's just that most people don't give it a name during the installation, so it generates a random name.
And...oh yes...I know about you and your little apple friends.
I will never join the cult! NEVER!
(:O)
Note To Self: Dont ask Jeremiah computer questions. ;)
J/k..Ok so that's pretty interesting, can I have one? Actually i'd be happy with a computer that worked, OH and had all the adobe graphics software. Now i'm distressed, I don't know what my computers name is, we've never been properly introduced.
And I thought the the mac was a descendant of apple....?
Apple was the company. Their first computer was the "Macintosh". They were going to keep going with the line and name it other apple names, but it never worked out.
Yeah, that computer is my baby. :)
I've got all the Adobe stuff on it plus more:
3D Studio Max 6.0
Adobe Photoshop CS
Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5
Adobe After Effects 6.5
Adobe Audition 1.5
Adobe Encore DVD 1.5
Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Professional
I've got a few games on it too:
Half-Life 2 (Beta Demo)
Unreal Tournament 2004
Call of Duty
Command & Conquer: Generals
:O)
*Bows down to you*
I used to have flash, photoshop 6, image ready and all that but that was on my other comp which my now ex boyfriend effectively destroyed by getting a virus so awful that after 4 months, i've yet to be able to remove it. And if I DO erase the whole thing, then I lose all that software and I can't get it back now. *sigh*
I'm so jealous I want CS in the worst way. Wrestle ya for it?
You can try to wrestle me for it if you want.
Or, since I'm 6' tall, I could just hold it over your head and laugh as you try to jump for it!
Of course, if you're too tall for that, then yeah, you'll have to wrestle me for it. But know this!
I have a fusha belt in Polish break dancing.
That's dangerous to everyone - including the dancer.
Alex, I don't actually know you, but since I'm 6'2" (well, in my heels at least) I could probably just stare him down for you. I find that usually works with guys.
