I spilled soda in my clicky keyboard

OMG those have a ton of little parts...but...

The quick red fox jumped over the lazy brown dog.
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country

looks like i got it all cleaned and working
YAY!

Are you fucking stupid? are you that jealous someone would leave a party with us and not you? or were you passed around to many times in the fox room, i heard the diseases you get there can eat your brain.

You call my BF a sexual predator, you call him dirty and you seem preoccupied with our sex lives. Word is your more of a slut than any person i have even had dealings with. I know a coward when i smell one, and you reek. People tell us to watch out for you because your crazy and always carry a gun. Aim well and shoot to kill because you are dealing with someone whom spent a great deal of my life in extreme pain so wounding me will not stop me. As a country boy you should know better that jack around with one of the same. If i did not have to go off to a school, i would be there at the next fur function and you would get your ass beat in the middle of the floor. period.

I have spoken directly to those you have accused us of doing ill will towards and they all same the same thing, your a petty drama whore fag and they don't approve of you in general. Sucks to be you, especially when i ruin your face.

Work is still stressful...bleah
There is a local fur who needed a break from where he was to get some perspective and much needed letting loose. However...aparently some people in the fandom have it out for me and Will. The guy was messaged saying that Will is a sexual predator and i was in one it, that were are just cruising for young ass. That really pissed me off but the guy decided to come over. He had a good time and was able to get the perspective he needed and relaxed. We had a nice picknick under the stars, spent some time at a park and got a little drunk. It was good for us all and i needed the diversion as well (and no we did not yiff the little fox).

Thanks for coming over Fox, looking forward to having you over again some time.

my boss is nuts and the place has a hight level of toxicity.
Pushed beyond the breaking point.
over worked and WAY under paid.
wrecked my truck because i am soo tired, got speeding ticket because i am falling asleep at the wheel.
I can't work 10-11 hours straight all the time, busting my ass for 16/hr but only 8 of it is paid because i am now on salary.
I have to leave sometimes, particular lately, at closing time to take care of paperwork and all the stuff that goes along with a new car and i get pulled aside and told 'sorry about your luck but your personal life can't get in the way of work. From now on schedule your after working hours times you need for personal time with me and put it on the board'.

I am not leaving early, just on time...What The Fuck!

I need a new job

I got a lot more than i expected for my birthday. some Really nice and thoughtful presents and a little cash.
Some of the cash we used to go have a night at the club, where i got a good buzz on (*^_^*)
Then we went to the movies the next day after buying a car, Resident Evil 3D is fun!

On to the car. I took a few picks of Will's truck and of my new ride.
I found a used 2002 PT Cruizer with only 31,000 miles. I'ts a 2.4 Liter with a manual trans.
Used to pull behind some old peoples RV for vacations and stuff, it's in VERY good shape. The price was really good too; at $8700 it was a steal. I was able to add a 3year/35,000 mile full factory warranty and a Zxilon interior/exterior coating for $255 a month for 60 months. My needs for vehicle have changed; They had a really nice Ranger 4X4 there and i would have loved to have it...but..I just don't need a truck as much as i did in the past. Wills truck has plenty of pulling power and a hitch if we need it; both our cars have hatches with folding seat so we can still do a fair amount of hauling. Gas mileage on a 2.4 liter is awesome; driven it 70 miles so far and the needle has barely moved. I think i did good.

Not really sure how to figure this into my budget but it will have to work, lower gas cost and the low payment will sure make that job easier.

The car we got Will is a piece of shit.
It's a money pit and NOT in good shape by any means.
Now the transmission is going out, we are cutting our losses and just handing the thing back to the car lot.

So...We found a really nice 2001 Ford Explorer Sport at a good car place.
It's in nice shape and comes with a warranty

(^_^)

So, Will got his financial aid refund in sooo...Shopping!

Here is one of the nice outfits he got and I got a surrogate Wulf to snuggle when he is away.
(*^_^*) Purrrr

removed all the guts from the power supply, removed the guts from a normal 450W supply and mounted it inside the empty cage of the original supply. Plenty of room in there and still use the indestructible metal fan that was in the original.

took the back off the original drive cage, removed some standard drive rails from a sacrificial case and mounted them inside the original cage. I would rather have drive cages that actually fit the original box but they don't seem to exist. plenty of room in the back of it's cover to place some fans and an intake filter.

So, we went to Nemmie and Savanni's lair to help with a project he is needing assistance with. fixing up the roof and adding insulation to his club house he is converting into something more livable. We got a good amount of discovery work done and will need to re-wire a few places before blowing in insulation. As for the toys! they found a nice 12 inch dutch oven for me *purrr* now i can go camping again. Also i got a nice utility belt for cooking and a vintage Klingon makeup kit. Lastly, a series 300 (i think) AS/400 server. Being the mad computer scientist i am, i gutted it today and did some modding to place my server into it. (^_^)

Got the unit all cleaned up, removed it's mobo tray and hacked in a standard ATX tray. I'll need to get some nuts and bots to mount it and do some more modding for the power supplies. I'll need to come up with hard drive trays that fit into the mounting racks of the 400. Then it will be time to place stuff into it.

I know Will did not enjoy himself as much as I did but i love him dearly for spending our anniversary with my friends.

So for the holiday we went to the Zoo, it was a lot of fun.
Then we went to see Piranha 3D! GNOM NOM NOM!

it was a funny gore fest
(^_^)
It was nice to spend time with my Mate

some times it just feels like it not worth chewing through the straps.

I can tell the stress of life is taking it tolls on my outlook on life.
I can blame it on being less than a month away from my next remicade treatment but thats a lie.

i am setting outside in the dark trying to see the keys, having a drink and a smoke.

Finances are not getting better, they are getting worse. this month i need to come up with $380 for cobra and $750 to start the high risk insurance i have no other choice but to get. While i enjoy the challenges i have before me at work, and the accomplishment of fixing weird issues we seem to have; it's very stressful to know at the end of the day i can't make ends meet and i can't afford to have the things i want like a house or a newer car. I worry that because of the seemingly constant barrage of issues the boss will not keep me on as manager after my 60 day trial and i will go back to just being an over worked and over extended technician. Will wants to do so many things, and i want them too but i have to keep saying no because we can't afford it and so i wonder how much longer he will keep putting up with me and having to live in the same house as mom. What happens when my 13 year old truck with 335000 miles kicks the bucket? What am i going to do when i simply can't keep the credit cards from increasing because i have to eat and pay insurance? I wish for easier times but know they will never come. I turn another year older this month and fear of becoming a bitter old man who had glimpses and touched upon happiness only to have it taken away of destroyed by my own doings.

I have accomplished a lot, been through more than my share of strife, had a share of good times happiness and sorrow; yet i feel small against the deluge of life. How long before it breaks me down and pushes me somewhere i don't have the will or strength to come back from?

well..work is still crazy but i am not staying late and working all weekend on shit...it can wait.
The new guy is slow going but is learning and will do just fine.

Past two weekends have been spent working on the floor in the business room.
The sub floor is down and so is the luan. The trim around the window in there is up but needs a little sanding and touch ups.

New the floor leveler/patching compound goes in the seams and gets sanded before laying down the adhesive and the tile.

For the most part all the "hard" work is done.

Money is a problem again...Cobra insurance is going up, i need $550 at the beginning of the month then i need $750 next month to start up the Kentucky Access health care i have no choice but to get then figure out how to make the $450 a month premium payments.

Meanwhile, Will stopped working at the place he was and is now working for a direct TV place behind the phones. It doesn't pay as much but the hours are better for his school schedule and there are more of them. So far he is doing just fine with school and i see no reason for him to falter.

Work is crazy stressful.
Dealing with learning the machines, dealing with undocumented modifications done by band-aid technicians no longer with the company. Dealing with a parts and stock machine area in a total mess....

Well, at least i hired a Tech. He starts Monday and i really got a good feeling about him and his abilities.

We started a new project this weekend...ripping up the nasty carpet and floor in the business room...YUK was it nasty. I worked VERY hard, with the help of a friend. We have the old floor and carpet gone, new sturdy floor plywood all down. Next is to paint the walls, finish the trim around the window, then Luan plywood goes down, then composite vinyl tile.

The house is a mess with all the contents of the buisness room in the living room

Will is with me this time as i get the magic juice.
So lets bring things up to date.
New guy i let go Monday, he did not take it with a professional behavior.
Work is stupid busy and it's hard for me to find time to do the manager stuff i need to do.
I come in early and leave late, 10-11 hour days running at 110% are getting old.

The party was great! Will enjoyed himself and was well received in the furry community. I got a little drunk but not all *blarrrgh* like i did before. We found a really nice and OMG sexy Cheetah that followed us home (*^_^*)

Will's car decided to have an issue Tuesday. One thing i truely hate is lazy work.
Some one has taken this car apart and put it together lazy...the power steering cooling line was not put back into it's holders and then wired up into place with a fucking coat hanger. It's been contacting the AC pulley and wore a hole into it. This is not a replaceable part as it's a rather long custom bent pressure tube. We thing i can cut out the bad section and splice in some new tubing with some compression unions...we will see.

Thank you Hunny for coming along.
