Potluck day at work! I love work potlucks because it means my manager, Sudha, brings in giant dishes of crazy delicious indian food. Also, brownies with ice cream.
I'm feeling really energetic right now, which is strange because I'm at work, and that generally sucks all of the hope and joy out of my life. I guess I'm just excited for the weekend and for my VACATION the week after next. Going to be gooood times!
Also, I have a twitter now. You should read it. twitter.com/smashpatriarchy Livejournal is so 2003

Steven and I have been living at Steve and Drew's for the past couple of days because our apartment was completely inhospitable to human life. Well, FAT human life, anyway. Ninety plus degrees all day and night isn't something I can handle. When we got back to our apartment from work today, we found some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that they never ordered the parts that they needed to fix our air conditioner a month and a half ago. The good news is that instead of actually putting in the order NOW and waiting for them to come in, they just went ahead and installed a brand new AC unit.
It's still rather warm in here, but I have no idea when it was installed or how warm it was when they put it in, so I'ma give it some time to work and see how things go. At the very least, it's enough for us to be able to move back in!

Both of our air conditioners have been broken for like two months. I fucking hate McKinley. It is 90 degrees in here and the guy I called in the office to ask when the parts we need will be in was a huge douche to me. I am seriously going to cut a bitch if this doesn't get fixed soon. If anyone needs me, I'll be over there, DYING.

Is $495 too much to spend for a CD box set?
Even a limited edition one of three thousand Pixies box set signed by the entire band?
( Description to follow )
Sexy, right?

I saw Bruno last night, and I've got to say, my favorite part of the movie was the people who were sitting behind me who kept going "Whaaaaaaa?" and "Oh no he di'in't!" every five minutes.

I got a brand new netbook yesterday, and I love it to death! It's totally adorable. It's an Inspiron Mini 10. I got Windows 7 installed on it, and Steve and Steven helped me get updated video drivers for it so I can actually run on the native resolution (1024x576). I am posting from it right now! I also found out that there's an unsecured wireless network that I can access in the break room at work, which is hell of sweet. Next order of business: installing WoW so I can use the auction house at lunch and try to control the market on Runed Scarlet Rubies all day long! (Like seriously, no one else cuts that shit. It's crazy!)

Hi Livejournal! How are you? I am fine. (Not dead.) Love to stay and chat, but I've got to go to work where I have a busy day of farting around on the internet and pretending that I should actually get paid for doing nothing ahead of me!

I guess I forgot to mention it because I never write in this thing anymore, but I got a promotion last week! I started training this week to become the new loan officer for my credit union, and I actually have my first loan closing today, which I will do in my new office. My new office that has a door! So, yeah. I've somehow managed to get a real grown-up job. I'm still not entirely convinced I AM a grown up, but at least I can play one at work.

So, I had to call in to work for the past two days because I've been really sick. I went in to work this morning, though, and I essentially got sent home. I feel like a huge jerk because it means extra work for everyone else, but my co-workers and manager were basically pushing me out the door and telling me to go home and rest.
On the plus side, these tissues have Vicks in them, and, while it almost certainly has no medicinal purpose, it makes my nose feel minty and tingly.

Does anyone else think James Murphy is bizarrely attractive?

So, I did not win the karaoke contest finals last night. I think I gave a really great performance, but then, pretty much everyone else there did, too. On the plus side, getting to hang out with your friends in a gross bowling-alley bar is a pretty good time.

Ok, so Kucinich's resolution to impeach Bush was referred to the House Judiciary Committee yesterday, where it will most likely be ignored and die. If you don't want that to happen, it might be a good idea to make some phone calls. A good place to start would be John Conyers, the chairman of the committee. The number for his Washington office is (202) 225-5126. As it just so happens, he is the representative for parts of Detroit and Dearborn as well as Highland Park and Hamtramack, so there've got to be at least a couple of people reading this who are actually his constituents. Give his office a call, for real. It only takes a couple of minutes, and phone calls tend to send a much stronger message than letters.
