Lauri’s Neighborhood

My day off was full of activities I had not planned!

I slept in till 9:30 - awesome

Went to lunch with Cameron at Panda Kitchen - awesome yummy

We dropped off my cable boxes and modem at comcast - finally

We walked around the mall for a bit - torture since I have no money till Thursday

Watched the 2nd Narnia on TV - still like a 3 hour movie lol

Then I came home, took out the garbage, walked the dog, cleaned the litter box, emptied the dishwasher, and started a load of laundry, and refilled the cats bowls. - all w/i an hour time frame. (How do I get more done in an hour than I do being at home all day doing nothing?)

Then we got to go see a FREE pre-screening of When In Rome. - AWESOME FREE! It was a cute movie, its not due out until January and you could tell that some parts of it didnt flow right together, i got a flier to go to a website to give my opinions on it, maybe tomorrow I'll do that.

So now I'm back home resting, gotta put the laundry in the dryer. Still have the season finale of Mad Men to watch, possibly tonight when i go to bed.

I was at Macy's until 8:45 last night for orientation. I go back Sat and Sun for some training and actual work. UGH i also have a dentist appt tomorrow night to take care of this cavity that is giving me a constant headache.

Oh and my 3 day detox/cleanse thing failed, because the headache would NOT go away I had to drink a soda, and then i said screw it and had some mini chocolate doughnuts for breakfast... ill try it again soon LoL

OH YEAH.
My boss told me yesterday that he was not going to be at  work Thurs and Friday, and that I had to BE SURE to be on MY best BEHAVIOR on the phones, because apparently I have been not so nice lately. Well I know that. We all know that. and If i recall, about 2 months ago I ASKED NICELY to NOT be on the phones anymore. I know its PART of my job, but its a part that I cannot handle anymore and I shouldnt have to because I have been in the back longer than ANYONE in the office.

I really think my only option would be to go to work drunk, that way, Im guaranteed to be nice......is it possible? probably not... sigh, I just dont know HOW to be FAKE NICE to people. It's not me. Take it or leave it. I am what I am.

So if you all have any suggestions on how I can change my ways and be polite and nice to totally incompetent fucking retards, please, let me know.

Not feeling altogether healthy today, so have been lying a little upon my bed. I have the blinds open and a crow is spending large amounts of time sitting on the lamp post outside my bedroom window and looking in at me. It flies away and then returns to take up its post again. I am not overly superstitious, but I am starting to get a little spooked out by the damn crow. I would indeed like to stone the damn thing.

FD and the crow : not friends at all

Look you saggy bag of black feathers take your business somewhere else! SHOO!

Blew the audition....

Tricky

Shouldn't have told 'em I was a one trick pony....

Been busy with other stuff tonight and I just realized the time. I'll have to use my car post as my Nablo of the day. Back to quasi-theme posts tomorrow. By the way, there are still a few post suggestions given in a previous post that I can use, but feel free to throw more at me if you wish.

Given that this is Remembrance Day, let me leave you with this video from Veterans' Affairs Canada.

Hmmm, sorry, vox's video thingy isn't working. Please go here.

Yep,  my prescription.  800mg each.

Here is an Ohio Scientific Challenger 4P (C4P).  It used the faster version of the 6502 processor (Apple and Commodore used the standard version) had lots of RAM (for the time) and all sorts of ports built in.  Nevertheless,  it had no expansion slots.  Hence no 3rd party add in cards.  It was released in the Fall of 1979 and the Apple II+ was released a few months earlier in the Spring.  It never could catch up.

This one was a friends first computer (he also had the Black Apple).  He had used it for years before upgrading to the Apple.  I would imagine the upgrade was actually the diskette system of the Apple and RAM as the specs on the C4P were better otherwise.  But the C4P did have the nifty wood sides.

Unfortunately while in good cosmetic condition,  BASIC will not come up.  It did last time I had it powered up.  I guess time for troubleshooting.
