Eriq’s Blag

I had my first day at Comm-Tech today. My first task was sorting through the massive amount of RAM modules that they have in an attempt to make some order of them. This wasn’t as tedious as it sounds. The only irritating part was that there were quite a few that didn’t give any clear indication what size they were. I also removed a couple hard drives from computers. This weekend we’re house sitting for that “uncle” I mentioned. Tomorrow we’re going to a place called…Tiggywinkles. It’s a wildlife hospital that has baby critters including hedgepigs. Unfortunately it requires that I get up early on a Saturday morning…urrrgggghhhh.

I’m starting to get lazy with these. I just don’t feel like going into extreme detail. Maybe that’s because I’m writing them late at night right before I go to bed.

My dad had a lunch meeting in Oxford today. I had to get up early so we could catch the train. We spent the day walking around the city. Saw a chalkboard Einstein had written on and the cameras of Lawrence of Arabia and Lewis Carroll. Then we ate lunch at the pub where J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis hung out together. Last we went to the natural history museum where there were a bunch of stuffed animals (the dead kind) and souvenirs explorers had brought back from their exploring. I have to get up early tomorrow because I have to go to work, bleh.

It’s that time of year again…school starts tomorrow. Still odd to think I’m a senior and it’s depressing to know that it won’t make a difference. Though seeing all my friends again will be nice; this was possibly my least social summer to date.

So I sold out today and got a Facebook account. I feel so ashamed…oh well.

To me, Facebook seems just as bad as Myspace, but slowly, all my friends have been sucked in by it. Today I found out that Souvey got a Facebook account. Well shit, it looks like I might have to break down and join the herd.

Yeah, so the US History AP was today, it sucked, but it’s over…that means that the workload in the class goes *poof*…HELL YES!!!

This guy is annoying. He’s actually complaining that I haven’t bitched/sworn in a week…WELL FUCK YOU SOUVEY! Happy now?

Yeah, so I missed the fact that DirectX 10 only works with Vista…oh well, I can still play Portal!

I thought that my computer was coming tomorrow because that’s what the UPS tracker says. However, my dad failed to mention he got a second email telling him that the OTHER parts had been shipped, so all I’m getting tomorrow is my case and LCD. I guess I can play around with the screen, but I was really looking forward to putting my computer together tomorrow and not on the 12th.

That didn’t go well.
