Ticked - More corporate drama on my end.
Multiple Smiles:
- Might have just found the throttle prop I needed for a future project
- Good friend of mine is going to Animazement with us
- Had plans cancel for tonight so I have a dead evening (after a month and a half of hectic everything, this is good).
- Finished a rough render a video project and showed the client yesterday, they loved it
- My LED projector came in earlier this week, its just like being a kid again. 6ft by 6ft tv...
- Just got a lead on a new N64 joystick replacement inventory

Smile: Feels like the kanji test went okay~

Ticked: Due to preparations for said test, I was unable to do my cultural reading response for this week...so now I have to do two for next week. More than anything, ticked at myself for not managing my time a little better >.>

This Terminator 2 musical made me smile:


(and I just had to check out the others from this user, hilarious stuff).

Ticked: Another rainy/grim day which has been constant for the past several weeks. I'm tired of this downer weather.

Sorry about your weather troubles guys.

I like rainy weather though, so if I could take it from you I would.

lol, I usually do too (especially at night), but man it's been weeks and weeks of nothing but gray. I'd like some sun by now. :lol:

Speaking about jobs, as I may have told many of yous, the company I work for is in the shitter. Today there was a long meeting with all the department heads, all about bullshit paper work and pointless stuff like that. More pressing, there's been rumors of a possible strike for a while but it's becoming more real as the contract expires next month. If the union strikes, I think it will be the end of my career there. The first day of a strike I'll start looking for a new job, hell if I'm gonna be a scab!

On top of all the bullshit going on, upper management got "incentive bonuses." WTF!?
