The Second Post Cometh

Yep... Its that time again... So.. lets begin with the change of scenery... what do you guys think? Gonna actually comment and tell me if you like it? You should... you know you want to... It'll be fun... /peer pressure... alrighty then... well anydangways... Currently I'm just chilling at home.. its about 5 in the morning... I'm now realizing I have work in less than 12 hours.... and will be sitting there in 12 hours... Which brings me to the first subject

Work... ah yes... one's way of making money... a blessing and a curse... a total time suck whilst simultaneously allowing one to do the things one likes to do... Work as of late has been a bit different... as many of you know I work at Clark, a local gas station.. for about a year or so I was a stocker but more recently I've been put on the register... which is a whole different world... Well.. what are the benefits to this position you may ask? Well... a slightly higher wage (7.40 something ish... idk i haven't really checked my paystub lately) and more hours... The disadvantages? Well.. Paperwork... Bottles (Really Fuxingz Sick... Just ask me sometime if you want details).. The Cigarette Count... More dealings with customers... ( 95.55% of them are alright... even kind of cool.. but the other 4.55% of them just simply serve to annoy the piss out of me...) and well... um... more hours... The Till (or Register for the layman) isn't really that bad I guess... It just has some really terrible downsides... Its a love hate sort of thing... anyways.. I'm hoping to get out of there soon... as there are a few openings at the FSU Technology departments... hopefully I can score a job there doing something I really enjoy doing... and maybe learn a few things there in the process... Speaking of Pc's some new things there....

Well.. I've been mostly preparing for BRLAN... which is coming up later this month on the 28th... which all of you should attend... yes.. that means you... no not you there who has no interest in games... you.. who has always considered going to a LAN but never have... You who has oftentimes wondered what's so great about these gatherings... Its you who should be there... so.. um... BE THERE... Here's a Link you can >>>CLICK<<< on to sign up... So do so if you haven't already... oh.. and did I mention its for charity? Yeah... All the $$ we make will be going directly to the Renucci Hospitality House which is for terminally ill patient's families... it gives them a place to stay whilst their loved ones are hospitalized away from home... So.. support the good cause and come out to BRLAN... /salespitch

Okay... next topic... i guess Its time for something random... so how about what I'm listening to right now? Well.. you may have already guessed... its Pink Floyd... Echoes is the song... off the album Meddle... The beginning of what would become the Floyd we know and love... well.. the one most people know... The Floyd has been through alot of changes... and has alot of different styles... but this was really when they started to come into their own... idk.. this song... its just so.. perfect... a little slow for a few of you I'm sure... and the middle section is kinda odd for those of you not used to the Floyds' random interludes of random sounds.... but the whole song is great.. it echoes (no pun intended) the Floyd's later work on Shine on you Crazy Diamond and Time... Really great song... I'd reccomend it to anyone... and if you get a chance to listen to the live in pompeii version >>>LINKY<<< ... This version is by far the best... In the album version.. it sounds like they're on the brink of just "Jamming Out" a great deal of the time... but in when they're live... they hold nothing back with this song... Nick Mason goes completly crazy on the drums near the end of this clip... freaking sweet....

Alright... so... lets see.. new life stuff... Well.. unfortunately there really isn't much... Things pretty much are.. as they are always... Its one of the off weeks for my siblings... so they're at my dad's for another 2 weeks... Kinda nice yet it kinda sucks at the same time... Lets see... Hmmm... Not much there really..

And I guess... For You Long Time Xanga-ites... I'll post Tunes Tuesday... though its technically wednesday....

TUNES TUESDAY: WEDNESDAY EDITION
1.Pink Floyd- Echoes
2.Finger Eleven- Suffocate
3.Taproot- Mine
4.Marilyn Manson- Heart Shaped Glasses
5.Electracy- Cosmic Castaway
