sunday nite at the movies, and a slob.
happy monday!!
last evening, i went to the movie theater 1st time in 2 years to see the kingdom of heaven, made by the same folks who brought us that good movie, gladiator!
i gotta tell ya, this movie is a must see!! 2 cats paws up!!
its set back in the fine year of 1125, in days of old, when knights were bold, and toilet paper wasnt invented yet!! and its christians vs. musilims in jerusalem, the christians run jerusalem, the king of jerusalem is a leper, a simple blacksmith goes to jerusalem, and all hell breaks loose! lots of blood and guts, sword swinging, catapult slinging, and bows and arrows (no indians!) the crusades!! this movie is almost 3 hours long, and its worth the $7.75USD i paid to go see it!
i made the obligatory stop to the concession stand, and bought the worst 'italian soda' i ever had! it was a mixture of sprite, strawberry syrup, and cream. all for the low low price of $3.50USD!!!!
the movie theater had nice captains chairs that relined a bit, and a spot on the armrest to put that pricy drink!
one of the guys that lives here was going, and asked me if i wanted to go. this was a movie i wanted to see, and so we went.
i had set the vcr timer on the tee-vee to record elvis the miniseries while i was gone. it didnt record. i dunno, i thought i done everything right, but it didnt go. so i missed elvis.
now, let me tell you about holman. hes one of these guys that works inna job where if you need tech support for ya pc, you call and get him, and he has a script book he reads asking dumb questions like, is the pc plugged in? (if consumer answers yes, turn to page 2) ya know what i mean? and he thinks he is so puter smart!!! hes a dumbass, but a tolerable dumbass.
he bathes on a regular basis, and wears clean clothes. but, his room is a nasty sting swamp! filfee filfee filfee!!! shit strewn everywhere!! and stink!! now, i cant smell nuffin, but cheesus h. cristmas!! i smelled his room!! he made fish several days ago, and his room smells like boston harbour~~ i had to run like hell up to my nice clean room b4 i started to gag!! how do people live like this?? he came up later on, and i told him that if doyle sees his room, he will get a lease violation, and 3 lease violations, and you are outta here! he just shrugs.. then he started making excuses as to why his room is a landfill! blah blah blah!!! too busy, cant do laundry, no soap...blah blah blah!! its so bad, that you cant even see the rug in his room!! he dont smoke or drink, dont suffer from depression, i dunno. he has lived like this for as long as i known him, and i let him come up here because i want to show him how my room is, to give him a hint, so to speak. i used to let him share my innernet connection, but i cut him off cause he didnt wanna pay. he had this monster of a puter desk that took up 1/3 of his room, and when i bought this desk i have now, i gave him my old desk. we have quarterly room inspections and if ya fail it, out the door ya go! he dont seem to care. now, im no felix unger, mind you, but his room is 10 times worse than oscar madisons!!!
we got the puter working in the office friday, but theres no email, chat, or newspaper access on it. yet. im working on it. no pogo either.
i got 41 hours last week!!!! so now lets see how many i get this week!!! shooting for 41 more!! cross fingers!!
i got my 100 but back for the month, toward journalcon in october, and trying real hard not to make any compulsive purchases online or elseware. i get my 50 in cash later on this morning, and that will do for food shopping for the week. all i really need is butter, actually!
last nite, i made spagetti, so that will last a few days. and i got a few box meals, and some canned stuff i can make.
now, i have to do the dishes, cause they need to be done. vaccumm, dust, wash. clean. a clean room keeps the roaches away.
thats all there is, there is no more! hava slap happy day!!!
FACT OF THE DAY
The dramatically named Colonel Blood attempts to steal the British crown jewels today in 1671. Blood, an Irish officer of Cromwell's army, had lost land after the Restoration and resolved to steal the jewels as a form of revenge and compensation. He was caught quickly and received a death sentence, but the King leniently gave Blood a pardon and even restored his lands! So crime does pay after all...
