Minor victory thread

I've received a refund for that package I never got.

Kinda bummed because I can't just reorder it due to it being a limited time deal.
 
I went and took/passed a test to get a certification for my work. The good thing is that they are hoping to move one of m coworkers to another position soon and when they do i can take over his current position since I have the certification now. It will be both a promotion and a raise. But now I have to wait for him to move on so I can take his spot but hopefully that won't be much longer (and if it does end up taking to long I may have to take measures into my own hands >:D)
 
I went out for drinks with a couple of friends of mine, to a new place with a pool table. Surprisingly, I beat them all rather handily, as well as one of the other customers. Then this guy came along who actually knew how to play pool, and he cleaned out the table rather handily.

Still, I view the triumph and the humiliation of my buddies as a minor victory.

Our two dogs have returned after being missing for two days. We really need to figure out how to keep them from getting out of the fence.

Me too, though I took mine on the 19th. Congrats!

Congrats too you as well :)
 
I got kind of tired of my first video review when I decided I should redo it almost completely... but now that I'm seeing the results, I'm pretty happy with how it's turning up!

I ordered 2 random shirts from Teefury a few weeks ago on a whim. They finally came in and I managed to luck out and get two shirts I had really been wanting. What really made it nice was the fact that I was having a pretty crappy day at work but seeing the shirts put me into a good mood for the night :)




 
Got my grades for this semester:
Life Drawing: A+
Mafias: A Global History: A+
Troy in Literature and Film: A+
Senior Animation Project: A

Program Cumulative GPA 3.89
Program Term GPA 4.00
 
Mafias was surprisingly boring. The subject matter is obviously intriguing, and doing my research assignments and essays was fun, but somehow the lessons themselves managed to be insanely boring despite the material.
Troy was an amazing class. I loved it and I wish that teacher were teaching a breadth elective this coming semester.
 
I slept for 8 hours, and only woke up once. This is the first time in over a week I've been able to do this. The past week has left me to the point of mental exhaustion, and if I was an ass to anyone at all in the last week, I apologize.

Yay, sleep!

Man, that sounds nice.

I'm a very light sleeper so normally I wake up several times in the night. But for the last 6 months my dog has been on medication and needs to be let out a couple times a night and is generally listless. So I get 4 hours of interrupted sleep a night. It sucks. Last night was 7 interrupted only twice so that was pretty awesome.

I was hoping to wake up around 10 yesterday morning, and woke up at 9:45. I like to live life on the edge.

Going to have to disagree with you Chazwozel, the new design, while taking some getting used to, is vastly superior to the older model. Give it a chance.

I suppose I'll get used to this interface to spread my newest wave of terror across the board.

And cheering was heard from the masses of Sharks with Grillz. They were ready to follow their leader into battle, giving their lives if need be....
 
I just took apart the counter top to patch up an enormous hole in the wall that was allowing mice into our kitchen cupboards. I feel like I've earned a beer.

Unfortunately, they've got at least one other entry point into the house that we can't get to. . Going to have to buy some more cruelty free traps.
 
What would be a disaster - a call pertaining to an old and large debt - turned out to be much less painful than I had feared. Granted, it'll mean a three month or so break from the ale and whores, but it won't leave me destitute either.
 
Went out with some friends tonight, hadn't seen them in like a year, and they're all in college and on track with their lives :D One of them grew a beard and now looks just like a young Billy Mays... I was the only one in the group that knew who that was u_u
 
New glasses have arrived. Got the entire set, prescription lenses and all for 2/3 of what I would have paid for frames alone locally. And those would have been the knock-offs of what I got. :)

Antonio has sarted crawling at 10 months.

To be fair, its more like "Mooncrawling", but hopefully he'll go forward in a month or two

How long ago did Michael Jackson die!?

And was his karma good enough that he could be so lucky to be reincarnated as a young boy??
 
It's tuesday .... *checks clock*.... ya, it's tuesday.

I don't work on tuesdays. This makes me a happy necro. Although I could do without this hangover. At least it's tuesday....
 
Got an iPhone 3gs tonight, finally upgraded from the "freebie" piece of junk that I had borrowed after the light in my razor went dead. Getting used to it, but haven't found a way to get my ringtones from the other phone over to it yet.

I actually cleared out more space in the garage and can finally use the side-entry door again.
