Wow…

Posted by itseizeyou on April 3, 2009

It sure has been an eventful past couple days.  I think, at this point, I could write a book with some of the shit that happens around me.  Let’s begin, shall we?

A couple nights a week, on World of Warcraft, I raid with my guild, and it’s a lot of fun.  Last night we were raiding, and I was just minding my own business, when all of the sudden I hear this insanely loud booming noise coming from my neighbor’s house. It sounded like a scene out of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, when all the animals come to the rescue, except with more rhinos pounding through the rooms.  My brother was sitting on the other side of the room, and we both looked at each other and said, “What the hell was that?”  My brother went over to my neighbor’s house to investigate.  A few minutes later, he ran inside the apartment and said something about my neighbor falling, and his tv fell over too.  I was right in the middle of the last boss fight in Naxxramas when he said this.  I looked at my computer and told my guildies that I REALLY had to go afk for a minute and that something was wrong.  They all kind of stopped talking and I could almost hear question marks replacing their speech.  I went over to my neighbor’s apartment to check out the scene and see if they needed help, but as soon as I opened the door, my brother hand gestured me to go back to my place.  Later on when my brother came back, he told me the situation.  Drunk neighbor, fell into the tv, crashing to the floor; tv going with him.  Neighbor threatened to hit my brother, so he just left.  This morning he came over and knocked on our door about 17 times, and finally my brother answered the door to see my neighbor standing there asking for help moving his tv back in place.  My brother reluctantly went over to help.

That is the main thing that happened.  It was so odd and strange.  On the plus side, I went over to my BFF’s house today to watch Twilight. We made our own commentary through the entire movie, which made it bearable to watch.

That’s what is new with me right now.. Nothing too much going on to be worth blogging about. Sorry!

Until next time…

Obligatory “I’m Back” Post

Posted by itseizeyou on April 1, 2009

Well hello!  What is that you say? Why yes, it has been a long time since I’ve updated my blog.  And yes, I was very angry, as you can see in the previous post.  I like to think I had somewhat of a good reason to be mad though.  As angry as I was, I am still with US Bank, however.

Well, let’s see! It’s now 2009. 2008 proved to be a year of epic fails, and I’m still walking down that path.  Why, just this morning I gracefully rose from my queen sized bed to find the house as clean as can be, and a pot of freshly brewed coffee ready to be drank.  What happened in reality? I woke up from a vivid dream, rolled off my air mattress over some slippers and possibly a cat; slowly rose to a standing position, wading through piles of clothing to the kitchen where the coffee that was made yesterday was still sitting in the pot, looking at me with those black, glossy eyes, wondering why I hadn’t rinsed it down the sink.  Instead of doing what any normal person would do, I looked at the coffee pot, turned around, and went to my computer.

Looking at the time, I realized I was actually up quite early at 8:30am in comparison to my usual 1:00pm. I turned on my computer, listened to it hum a bit and immediately opened twitter to see if I had any new followers or @replies. I didn’t.
I sifted through the tweets, news, and Facebook statuses to find, just like yesterday, that I wasn’t interested in what anyone had to say. I closed my browser, and looked at the World of Warcraft button; positioned so perfectly on my desktop. I thought for a moment that maybe I should clean up my house, take that walk I always wanted (I then looked outside to find gloom and misery. I closed my blinds tighter,) or look around the net to see if any new job prospects had popped up.  After these thoughts, I looked back at the World of Warcraft button, and double clicked.

“I can clean later.”  “I’ll take that walk tomorrow when it’s not so gloomy and cold out.”  “I just looked at jobs last night. There’s nothing new.”  And so began my day.  One would think I was having a Groundhog Day moment, where the same things happened over and over every day.

The couple things I did do differently, however:  I woke up early, drank black coffee (remember? no creamer), and updated my blog.  I’m hoping to do two out of the three things on a regular basis. We’ll see!
