Got home Thursday morning and Jeremy wasn't pleasant. I tried to get him to eat breakfast (or anything for that matter) and he wouldn't. I told him I would take him out or let him play his game if he did but he didn't so he didn't get rewarded at all. Friday I took him out fishing with me. I attempted to just tie a rubber leech to the string but it cut right through the leech so i used a hook but hooked through the body so none of the hook was exposed. He was pretty good while I was fishing but he got bored pretty quickly. I didn't catch any fish or really see any in the lake. Last year when I went there you could see a lot of them right from the shore. All I saw this time was one or two pickerel. I got one or two small bites but couldn't get the fish. After we fished we went to the shuffleboard court and threw rocks on it. We went to the playground and walked around near the lake and then threw some rocks in. Came home and went to sleep. Holly woke me up and we went straight to the welcome center. She got McDonalds for dinner so we could get there as soon as possible but I still missed the first period. The board members were down there while I was watching the game and I couldn't help but think they were watching me. There were a few people down there using the computers. Jeremy wasn't too good while we were there. He was running around and screaming and climbing on the furniture. I wouldn't have cared if no one was there but it's rude when people are there. Rangers lost the game after being up 3-0. Jagr hit the post at the end. Don't want to go into it too much. It was an entertaining game nonetheless. Came home and hung out and went to work. Got an hour and a half extra at work. Went back to Holly's and slept. She took her Praxis but doesn't know how she did. She got fucked and got a test that had a lot of questions about school therapy. Just our luck.
Jeremy started signing the "Itsy Bitsy Spider' out of the blue the other day. It was funny and cute. I don't know where he picked it up from. I was singing it to him a few weeks ago but he was annoyed when I was doing it. He could've heard it on TV.
I started playing GTA: Liberty City Stories. It's pretty fun and I like it more than I thought I would. IGN just came out with its review of GTA:4 and it got a perfect 10. No game has gotten that score in ten years. The video review was shitty but the written review was 7 pages. I'll probably just stop playing Liberty City Stories and wait to get GTA 4 because it'll be more of the same game over and over.

4/24/08
Beat Super Metroid yesterday. I thought I was going to have a high score for unlockables but it only turned out to be 76%. I was disappointed; thought it was going to be in the high 80's or low 90's. It seemed like I found powerup after powerup. I'm going to look up the locations of all of them. Hopefully there's a youtube video. I beat the game in something like 9 hours. I started Grand Theft Auto: Libery City Stories but haven't put more than 20 minutes into it. I'm going to attempt to play it and see if I get bored of it. I went for another bike ride yesterday. Did a few miles but at a faster pace. The bike handles great and I'm looking forward to getting on it as much as possible. The derailleur has to be adjusted because it isn't shifting crisply. I really want to get on the mountain bike this weekend or next week. I still have to get the two bolts for it. The road bike gives me that nice feeling of speed and handling but the mountain bike gives me the feeling of accomplishment. After my bike ride I came home and took a quick bath and basically went straight to sleep. Holly had to get her cavities filled and then she went to pick up her cap and gown and to get me some boxer briefs. My balls were hanging too low the other day, especially when riding the bike. The undies are more comfortable than I thought they would be. Holly woke me up at 6 on Wednesday and we went to Mcdonalds. Jeremy acted OK. It took him forever to eat his four chicken nuggets. We let him play for a little while afterwards but we were both tired of being there and left shortly after. Holly's dad went to get our gate cards updated and the update didn't take the right way so we couldn't get into the gate on the way home. I had to go inside to tell the woman and she only gave me access until the end of the month. We got home and told him and he was steaming. I messed around online when we got home and played some KOTOR. I finished almost all the missions on the Wookie world and will be going to a new world next time I play the game. I'm not really in the mood for the game as of right now though. I might just put on Riddick because I can go for an action/shooting game. Got about half an hour of overtime at work yesterday and twenty minutes today. After work I went to Walmart to get strawberries for Holly. I decided to get my fishing license while I was there. Ran into Carol and spoke to her for a minute. Got the new style fishing license. I was debating whether or not to go today. The lake looked choppy when I drove past.

Tuesday Morning
Took a nap after watching the first period of the Red Wings game on Sunday. I got up and downloaded a few applications for the PSP but didn't play with any of them yet. I attempted to get Weeds and Final Fantasy 7 but they didn't finish in time. Came home and hung out with Holly and we ended up watching Alien vs. Predator 2. The quality was shitty and the movie itself was pretty bad. I struggled to stay awake the whole time and I don't even remember who makes it out in the end.
Got up at 7:30 on Monday because I had to move the van for Holly. I decided to stay up. I played Metroid for a little while. Jeremy was up with me but fell asleep watching me play the game. After he fell asleep I decided to take the bike out and go for a ride. I filled up the front tire but had trouble filling up the back. It didn't take air right away and I had to play with it. I thought I had a flat but I finally got it to fill up. Hopefully my mountain bike is the same with a slow leak. I rode around the community in a big loop and took Locust Ridge from the other entrance to our entrance. I didn't feel too fatigued while riding. I came home and took Jeremy outside. He rode his bike to the playground but the bugs were bothering him and he was getting distracted while riding the bike. I brought the soccer ball and we kicked it around for a bit. We only stayed at the playground for about 20 minutes before he wanted to come home. He didn't even slide down the slide. He did ride home and I had to push the bike home for him. Came home and hung out and played Metroid. Went to take a nap at 4:30. Holly woke me up when she came home but we wound up taking a nap together. Jeremy crawled into bed with us later. We woke up at 10 and soon thereafter I headed off to work. Got an hour overtime at work. Going to take Jeremy outside in a few minutes, after I'm done feeding him his peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Saturday Night/Sunday
Holly woke me up at around 6:00 and we tried to make plans where we wanted to eat. She suggested Sara Street Grill. I looked up the menu online and found out that they have some pretty funky selections so we ended up going to Friendly's. She looked stunning when I met her. We had a nice dinner together and just sat together and talked. I got the steak and chicken combo but found the steak was much too greasy this time. I should've gotten the cod. We started to head towards Mt. Pocono but decided to go to Target to walk around. She looked around but didn't buy anything. I was really horny because of the hotness so we went to the K-Mart parking lot to take care of business. I fingered her while she sucked me off. It was very nice. We cleaned up and started to make our way over to Walmart when a car came toward us and almost crashed into our side. This spic cunt opened her door and started pointing to her cellphone and her hand and was saying "Donde". There was a guy in the car with her but he didn't even make eye contact with us. We didn't know what the fuck she was talking about. She followed us out of the parking lot but went back into K-mart. I assume she was either a drug dealer or was waiting for a dealer. We did our food shopping and parted ways for the night. I came home and played on the computer for a little while. I got Chris 311 and got Holly an album and downloaded Vice City Stories for myself. I decided that I'm not going to get Warcraft and just focus on free online MMORPGs instead of paying for one. Plus with all the console games it's a waste of money. Shaiya seems to have a decent amount of people in the game and it's on par with Warcraft so i'll just play that if I want to play one. I started playing Metroid and wound up playing for hours. I was stuck and trying to figure out where to go and just couldn't put it down. I ended up going to bed at 5:30 and waking up at 8:00. I have to take a quick nap later. I'm planning on watching the Red Wings game at 3.
Ryan drove to hockey. Tye didn't show up so we only had one goalie and didn't know what to do. The tatoo kid used to play so he suited up for us. It seemed to take him an extremely long time to suit up so by the time we started it was after 10:00. Tim and I dressed in white. I played defense. My first shift I was covering the annoying kid as he drove to the net. I stick checked his stick to kill his chance to receive a pass and he immediately started cursing and getting crazy about it. Bobby came out and started playing him hard and the kid got pissed off and started going at it with Bobby. He skated and rammed Bobby after the play and Bobby ended up pushing him over the goalie. They started cursing at each other and had to be restrained. Towards the end of the game the kid got pissed off at Bill and tackled him football style after a play. We ended up playing decent together with a lot of passing. I thought I played fairly well defenseively and scored one goal. I had a few shots on goal as well but messed up some of my passes. It was a close game and really fun but it was way too short. As we were walking out Dave and the annoying kid were yelling at each other. Dave usually calls him a crackhead and I guess he said that to him and they got into it. The kid was cursing at him as he was walking out the door. I could see the kid being amped up something because of the way he was acting today.

Rangers Clinch!!!
On Thursday got home from work and did the usual morning routine (eat, bathe, internet) and started to play Super Metroid. Jeremy was really into it. I let him press the fire button while I control Samus. I tried to get him to go outside after that but he didn't want to and asked me to put a movie on in the room for him. I did and went out to the basketball court for about half an hour. While there, I decided it was too nice of a day for him to sit inside so I came home and again suggested we go outside. This time he wanted to. I got out his bike for him and we started to ride toward the basketball court. The bike is way too small for him now and we quickly turned back and dropped off the bike at the house. On the way to the basketball court, a german shepherd rushed out of the house before the clubhouse and ran towards me barking. I thought the thing was going to attack and I put my left arm out and braced for it to bite me while I took my right arm and pushed Jeremy in back of me. I stared at him and he kept barking at me until a young kid came to get him. A lab also ran out when the kid came out to get the dog. I showed the lake across from the clubhouse but he wasn't interested. He played on the playground for a little while and then we headed home. I was getting tired and the sun was beating down directly on him. We played soccer in the yard for a few minutes before we came in and I went to bed.
Friday I came home from work and took him with me to the basketball court. I was shooting around while he played in the sand with the toys from Dustin's party. We stayed for a little while but again it was too sunny out. We headed towards the other playground but were only there for about two minutes before Jeremy said he had to pee and wanted to go home.
Friday night I woke up when Holly got home and we all ate and then headed to the welcome center. I missed the first period but got to see the other two. Drury scored right away to take a 4-1 lead but the Devils scored two shitty goals and the game was too close for comfort. A penalty shot denied by the king with ten minutes left. Dubinsky scored an empty net goal with a minute left to seal the deal. I thought we'd definitely see the Pens the next round but with the Bruins winning and going to game 7, who knows what will happen. I hope the Bruins win so they'll get the Pens next round and we get the Philly/Washington winner.
I was really tired at work and almost left another bill out of a trailer. That's twice in two nights. I left two skids of Procter and Gamble on the dock on Thursday night. I've vowed to only scan one bill at a time to avoid this from happening again. I had to write a statement about a missing bundle of magazines. Jews! I remember being pissed because the small skid wasn't even recouped when it came to us, just thrown in the truck. What am I going to do with ten copies of Cycling World. One copy, yeah. If I was going to steal, I'd steal something worthwhile. I was dragging ass and had a shitty loaded towards the end of the shift Friday. Bummed a cig from Joe and got the rest of the shift over with. Ended up with 1:45 overtime for the day and almost four for the week.
Get home and Aunt Linda, Cindy, and Asleigh are over. Just the people I want to see after a shitty day of work. I hung out for a little while and played Metroid and then we headed home.
I was playing Chrono Trigger earlier in the week but it didn't do anything for me. The game was too easy and I'm not interested in playing a game just to play a game. I want something that's going to be challenging or fun or interesting. I initially wanted to play Super Mario World: Yoshi's Island but it wasn't running right on the emulator. It was going too slow so I tried to play with the settings, which made it run faster but parts of the level were disappearing. It may work with the sound off completely but I wanted the sound to work. So after giving up with that I started to play Super Metroid.

Thursday Morning
I beat God of War on Monday. I was considering playing the bonus content but got bored with it pretty quick. I've been eating like a complete pig lately but I don't care. I'm tired of eating bland foods like some pussy weight watching cunt. I want to start riding my mountain bike and I think I'm going to try to get my mountain bike in riding shape. I have to buy at least two screws and a new tube. I'll have dad help me get the disc brakes 100%. I was really in the mood to go fishing this morning and was going to stop for my license on the way home but I didn't have the fishing pole so it was kind of pointless. I was thinking of going to my parent's to get the pole and driving back but it was too much driving with the car, especially after work. I've also been in the mood to play the guitar and I may bring my acoustic to Holly's again. See how I feel after the weekend. I want to rip on the electric but we'll see if I do it this weekend or not. I never really got the urge to get on the electric and strum, I'd rather do it on the acoustic.
Holly followed her dad to Merle's. The car actually made it without breaking down, which suprised me. I didn't want her to get stuck on the highway, with him expecting her to push the car like last time. Jeremy got to run around at Merle's for a while and Dale took them both out for pizza on the way home. She woke me up at 6:15, later then I wanted to get up. I got up and boiled chicken and Holly cut the veggies for the shiska bobs. We put them on the sticks, cooked them and ate. We all went to the welcome center around 8:15. I missed the first half of the game. On the way to the welcome center I heard on Farell that the Devils tied up the game. Got into the welcome center and just missed the Rangers score. The Devils scored soon thereafter and it was a back and forth game. I didn't think the Rangers were playing well enough to win at the end, with the mementum the Devils showed but they scored with three minutes left and the Devils never really had another chance during the game. The next Ranger game is on Friday night. I'd like to go home and watch it but doubt I'll be able to. Jeremy was coloring and playing with a 550 piece cat puzzle while Holly attempted to do work. There were two old men playing pool that left shortly after we got there and two people that were sitting at the table reading. Jeremy was talking loudly and we had to keep telling him to shush. He brought home this 60 page Scooby book that's made for a 10 year old. I read him the first two chapters and will try to read him two or so every day.
I got another half an hour of overtime this morning. Came home and Jeremy was sleeping in the bed with Scoob Doo playing. I'm going to take a bath and see if he wants to go outside when he wakes up. I'll see if he lets me go to the basketball hoop so I can shoot around for a little while.

Wasted away my Monday. Woke up around 10:30 and hung around with Jeremy. The xbox didn't get fixed over the weekend so I didn't really have anything to play. I downloaded Chrono Trigger and put it onto the PSP. I put about two hours into it. It's not that bad but it seems too simple. I also downloaded Earthbound and Secret of Mana. I went to bed around 4 and woke up at 9:30. I woke up with a bad attitude and got into a fight with Holly basically about nothing. It was all my fault because I was fed up with living here. Just got aggravated. Monday and Tuesday I got half an hour of overtime. Sent dad some links to repair the xbox to see if he could do it or if I had to order the power supply. The supply is only 10.00 and 13.00 shipping (ripoff) but it's not bad overall. He called me to tell me he couldn't fix it and I told him it was shorting out when I plugged the power supply in. I called him back and he had it fixed. I don't know if it's going to take forever but hopefully it does. The guy who wrote one of the fix articles said his fix didn't work that long but dad seems to have employed a different strategy.
Went to bed right after my bath on Tuesday and woke up at 6:30. Jeremy took a nap while I was sleeping in there. I hung out with Holly and made some Mac and Cheese and Hotdogs. We just hung around watching TV and watched the 'Biggest Loser' finale. I started to play Earthbound while I was watching it. I like the humor and animation in the game but I don't like the fight menu. So I don't know if I'll continue with it. Holly has to follow her dad to Uncle Merle's. I hope his piece of shit van makes it down there without trouble. I don't know if the baby is going with her. I was thinking of barbecuing tonight but I want to see if she's in the mood to. I stopped on the way home to get coldcuts and was going to get chicken and terriyaki but they didn't have terriyaki and the chicken was expensive. The green peppers looked like shit as well. The Rangers play tonight and I'm going to go to the Welcome Center to watch the game.

Work was dragging dragging dragging on Friday night. At least in the beginning of the shift. The end of the shift seemed went more smoothly. I was anxious to get home and start the weekend. I got 20 mins overtime and probably ended up with 2 for the week. The freight levels haven't picked up and I assume they won't, with the economy. I have to go tell Human Resources to change my tax status so they're not taking so much out of my paychecks. It seems like I'm really getting hit. The big refund is nice but the extra few dollars a week will help when we're living out on our own.
Came home and took a bath and slept for two hours. We left at 1:45 and got there at around 2:30. I walked in to look for Tim and I didn't see him there. Holly got pissed off and we went into Harbor Freight to see if they have the Diamond Tile Blade that dad needed. Of course they didn't and I called Ryan and he said they were in there on the side. I didn't see them when we walked in. Jeremy had a really good time in there. Holly and I were both impressed with it. We're going to have his birthday there. Jeremy was taking huge bites of his pizza. He played some games (gun games mostly) and was pretty good in there. He was bratty when you'd try to help him do something. Tim (or Pat) brought a little thank you bag of toys for Jeremy when Dustin was opening his presents. It was a really good thought and worked out nicely. Dustin was happy with the presents we got him. We're going to have Jeremy's party there and invite the kids.
We left Chuck E Cheese's and went to the mall. Holly wanted to use her Charlotte Russe gift certificates. I tried to take Jeremy so she'd have time to shop but he started acting like a real brat. He wouldn't let me look around EBGames and he ran away from me big time. I was chasing him and people were giving me a look like I was trying to steal him. We left the mall and then went back in to get food. Holly stopped at Payless and got a pair of flats and a pair of Cars light up sandals for Jeremy. We had some Taco Bell and by that time we were both stressed out, with Jeremy acting up and bitching and we headed home.
Jeremy and I both fell asleep on the way home in the car. I headed for Mom's soon after getting to Holly's. I got in and immediately started watching the Bruins and Canadians game. The Bruins were down 2-0 and they came back to tie it. Canadians hit the post with 1 second left. After that I played around on the computer. Got some comics. Downloaded the Eve MMO trial. Was going to download that other free trial game but didn't. Played Call of Duty online for a while. I opened up Oblivion and decided to start playing again. I think I'm going to beat the shit out of that game and get the expansion for my birthday.
Drove to hockey this morning. I was excited about playing but played like complete shit. Oh well. I scored two goals and had one assist. I was playing so bad up that I dropped back. I really wasn't putting the effort there today. Tim didn't play too well at all either. That annoying kid went up on offense and scored three goals in one shift. He gets so lucky with his goals. A few of his gems today:
"I just wanted to see if I could score three goals in one shift."
"If I was playing offense the whole time we'd have like 20 goals"
He thinks very highly of himself. Ran into Ed in the beginning of the game and bent my glasses. They're not sitting right on my face. I really have to go schedule an appointment. Have to see who takes shitty Cigna.
Flyers and Capitals play at 2:00. Probably turn it on and watch for a while. The Rangers are on at 7:00 so I don't want to go too hardcore with the hockey. I want to play some Oblivion and Call of Duty as well.
For birthday:
Three pack of Sherwood Sticks
Oblivion Shivering Isles Expansion

We left Chuck E Cheese's and went to the mall. Holly wanted to use her Charlotte Russe gift certificates. I tried to take Jeremy so she'd have time to shop but he started acting like a real brat. He wouldn't let me look around EBGames and he ran away from me big time. I was chasing him and people were giving me a look like I was trying to steal him. We left the mall and then went back in to get food. Holly stopped at Payless and got a pair of flats and a pair of Cars light up sandals for Jeremy. We had some Taco Bell and by that time we were both stressed out, with Jeremy acting up and bitching and we headed home.
Jeremy and I both fell asleep on the way home in the car. I headed for Mom's soon after getting to Holly's. I got in and immediately started watching the Bruins and Canadians game. The Bruins were down 2-0 and they came back to tie it. Canadians hit the post with 1 second left. After that I played around on the computer. Got some comics. Downloaded the Eve MMO trial. Was going to download that other free trial game but didn't. Played Call of Duty online for a while. I opened up Oblivion and decided to start playing again. I think I'm going to beat the shit out of that game and get the expansion for my birthday.
Drove to hockey this morning. I was excited about playing but played like complete shit. Oh well. I scored two goals and had one assist. I was playing so bad up that I dropped back. I really wasn't putting the effort there today. Tim didn't play too well at all either. That annoying kid went up on offense and scored three goals in one shift. He gets so lucky with his goals. A few of his gems today:
"I just wanted to see if I could score three goals in one shift."
"If I was playing offense the whole time we'd have like 20 goals"
He thinks very highly of himself. Ran into Ed in the beginning of the game and bent my glasses. They're not sitting right on my face. I really have to go schedule an appointment. Have to see who takes shitty Cigna.
Flyers and Capitals play at 2:00. Probably turn it on and watch for a while. The Rangers are on at 7:00 so I don't want to go too hardcore with the hockey. I want to play some Oblivion and Call of Duty as well.
For birthday:
Three pack of Sherwood Sticks
Oblivion Shivering Isles Expansion

Friday Morning
Fifteen minutes overtime at work today. I kept thinking about going to the trout stocking with Jeremy (last week) and luckily I noticed while coming home from work that it's today at 1:30. We're supposed to get scattered rain and I hope it holds off enough for us to go. I'd like to see it and think he'd get a kick out of it too. Even if we just go for a few minutes. I don't know if I should just try to stay up or if I should take a nap and be asked to wake up. I'll probably take a bath in a few minutes and go to sleep for a little while.
I started playing God of War since the Xbox broke. I got stuck between save points after completing a difficult section so I decided to bring it to work with me. I had it on power saver and didn't end up beating the part. The PSP died on my lunch break and I thought I'd lose my progress but luckily when I powered it on it was still at the power saving point. Pretty cool feature. The game is getting difficult at this point.
I guess Artie walked off the Howard Stern show yesterday. I didn't hear it and didn't hear the wrap up show on the way to work either.

Thursday Morning
Went to bed early when I got home Wednesday morning. I was planning on taking Jeremy out to play but he didn't seem to be into the idea much. I also wanted to spend time with Holly when she got home. She ended up with seven new cavities. My insurance is complete shit and didn't even pay for the x ray. We had to pay 400 in all. Sucks. Wish there was something that would strengthen her teeth. I got up at 5:30 when she got home. She made a casserole from a recipe that was in the Sunday paper. It came out very good. She also made egg salad later in the night. I went to go play my xbox after dinner and found it's broken. The power source doesn't seem to be working and the wire is making a sparking sound where it connects to the system. I read a fix online about soldering and hopefully dad can do it this weekend. If I have to order the part, it's pretty inexpensive. Jeremy's Scooby game is stuck in the system. It seems like God doesn't want me to finish KOTOR. I hope we can get the system working so that the hard drive is preserved and I can finish the game. Work was easy tonight. Jack said we would be busy but we were almost done at 8:00. He offered me to go home early but I didn't take it and AJ had to. I think he was pissed off about it. Fuck him. I'm the full time guy. I'm not trying to rush out of there early. Plus I got an extra forty minutes of overtime. Going to take a bath and then take Jeremy outside for a while.

Work was OK on Monday and Tuesday. They sent us some part timers so I only wound up getting half an hour overtime on Monday and forty five minutes on Tuesday. We also have that new Russian guy that coems in. The new bid is in a few weeks and I hope I don't get moved to the hub. All the guys on the hub seem to want to stay away from the city so I should be good there. Just have to see if I can get on the 7:30 shift when I need to. I got home on Tuesday morning and took a shower and took Jeremy outside. He rode his bike to the playground. The bike is too small even though I thought it was adjustable up to age 4. We're going to give it away and I'm giong to bring his other bike here this weekend. He got excited because the nice house with the greek lettered garage is doing work and they had a backhoe in the backyard. We ran around the playground and threw some rocks in the water. We went down the slide a few times and were there for about forty five minutes. I showed him a ladybug that was on the slide and a spider that was in that small tunnel. It was a decent enough day but there was a bit of the chill in the air, especially with the wind so we headed home after about forty minutes. He didn't ride his bike and i had to carry it home. I offered for him to play out in the yard but he got bored of it after a few minutes. While I was sleeping Holly made him a grilled cheese and he ate almost the whole thing. I made myself one for lunch before we went out to play but he didn't want anything to do with it then. He started playing his Scooby Doo game at night. It's a pain because he can't really control it too well and Holly and I end up playing it.
Holly and Jeremy are both still sleeping. Holly has a dental appointment with the asshole today and I hope the fuckface doesn't scam us again. We have the insurance but I don't know if dental applies to our deductable. We'll see.
Found the star map pretty easily on the Wookie world. It seemed a lot longer finding it on the Water World. I'm completing all the side missions now. I'm trying to get the Mandalorians to fight me. I haven't really played God of War or Riddick. I'm going to call Xbox and see what they say about my system. I'm trying to get them to replace the games, especially NHL 08'. We'll see what happens.

Weekend
Missed out on WM again. Always always always. Look at the three month chart. Whenever it goes down to 10 it always pops up to 12 again. It went from 10 to 12 in two days and then dropped to 10 two days later. I wake up and there's news of it getting an injection of capital. Of course, of course. Why do I always miss it???? I'm staying out of the market for the most part. Have the one small investment. The rest of the money is more important elsewhere, especially in the next few months. The market looks to be making a comeback though. AAPL, GOOG C F and others are looking strong.
At the preshift Thursday, Dennis told us that they wouldn't be using those chemicals on the dock anymore. He said they threw out the bags and that they were going to pressure wash the dock over the weekend. I called OSHA and a lawyer on Friday morning. The lawyer wasn't pleasant and OSHA didn't seem to care about what happened. I wanted them to go down to the job but he said he was going to ask his supervisor and see what he said. Got into work and found that they sent a letter to the job saying they were complained to and the job had to take care of the complaints within five days.
I got out on time on Saturday morning. I only ended up with 3 hours of overtime this week. It feels nice to get out on time for a change. Jeff was complaining about our overtime recently. I'm suprised the dock hasn't picked up more as of late. Maybe in the next few weeks. After work, I went straight to mom's and took a shower. Fucked around online for a few mins and then went to pick Chris up from Scranton.
Got home and hung around. Played guitar hero for a while. I still can't get past the solo part in 'One'. Getting closer though. I got halfway through the "Rain of Doves" song. Those two are the easiest out of the four songs that are left. The Slayer song gets too crazy in the middle and the pattern in Iron Maiden is hard to master. Went to sleep at 2 and woke up at 6. At home we had a choice of either French Onion Soup and Burgers or Steak and Fettucini. I was leaning towards the steak and fetuccini but chris wanted the Onion soup. It came out excellent as usual. Spent the rest of the night doing nothing much. Watched most of the Washington game and a few parts of the Boston game. Played guitar hero some more. The Xbox started freezing when I went to try "One" on the hard mode. I opened the tray and it made a nasty sound as it was opening and carved a perfect circle on the disc. The disc still works but it makes me nervous, especially because John has been having problems with his. It's the same circles that are on the NHL 08 disc. I have to call Xbox to complain and see if I get replacements of the games and/or the system.
I played some more of WOW on Saturday night. I tried to play with my Elf but I went too far off track and got stuck in an area with all higher leveled beings that kill me. I get my body back to life and they kill me again instantly. I gave up on the character and made another, a Tauren Shaman. Did a few missions (all killing things) and can see how the game can be addictive. I like it enough but may stay away from it. Have to see what I can do. I have enough games to keep me busy for a while without buying another and paying monthly fees for it. If I want an MMORPG i'll play one of the free ones for now. GTA is coming out in a few weeks and I guess I'll be getting it for my birthday. Chris wouldn't go sleep in the bed downstairs so I had to leave his room and come back when he was sleeping. I used the computer but didn't play any games.
Chris actually went to hockey. I didn't play well. My stick is done and I'll be replacing it next week. Just have to tape up the new stick. Mike said to me that I could use his stick or take it, he wasn't really clear but I didn't want to do it. It was a really nice offer though. Chris didn't play on my team. I scored 1 goal and had at least 1 assist. Tim almost got into a fight with the tattoo kid. The tattoo kid hit him and Tim started talking shit to him. I was bracing myself to jump in there and take Bobby out just in case he went for Tim too. Tim had a chance to hit the kid really really bad along the boards and he restrained. Left hockey at 11 and went to Aunt Mare's. Chris told me he didn't know how to get there but he did. I was giving him directions and it was a realy pain in the ass. He got to Aunt Mare's and took quick showers. Left at 12 and got to Madison at 1. Walked aroudn the store a bit. It's big but not as big as I thought it would be. I probably don't remember how small it was. Didn't see anyone I knew except Frank from grocery. Didn't say much to him. Went to the pizza place for lunch. I got an Eggplant Parm Sandwich. Wasn't too bad. Met dad at 145 and started towards Newark. Got there around 215. We started to go towards our seats and they started warmups. We had gone up an escalator and couldn't find our way to go back down. We watched the pregame warmup from above. The seats were up pretty high but we had a full view of the ice. The game was decent. Devils scored in the first min and then again halfway through the first. The second goal was really weak off Lundquist's shoulder. Drury scored about 20 seconds into the second and Jagr scored at the beginning of the third. Dad went to the bathroom and he missed seeing the goal in person. He was waiting to get to the seat but since the play was in action he couldn't come watch. He saw the goal on TV. Rangers pulled Lundquist to try to win the game outright but they didn't even really have any chances at the end. Game went to shootout. Dawes and Shanny miss. Gomez scores while the crowd boos. Shoe messes up and Devils score to win the shootout. Chris fell asleep in the car on the way home. Got to Stop and Shop and used the bathroom and started towards home. I was going to ride with dad but Chris staretd bitching and he went with Dad and slept in the car. I drove his car home and dropped off Aunt Mare. It wasn't such a bad ride. Got home and ate and waited for the laundry to dry and then left to take Chris back. I was starting to fall asleep in the car on the way to Scranton. Lit up a cigar on the way back to Holly's and caught a second wind. Came hom and hun gout for a few mins before laying down and going to sleep with Jeremy. Holly woke me up and we made love.
Woke up at 10 and started doing small finacial things. Called KNBT to see if they had online bill pay. Unforunately not. Stupid small shitty bank. Did my State and Local Taxes. Didn't get any refunds, nor owe any money. Called up the library to renew the books. I have to go to he bank tomorrow to give mom money for the car payment. She's sending me out a check tomorrow. I'm goign to see if I can upgrade my bank account and get free checks.

Wednesday Night
First Soda
Holly woke me up at 3 and we went on our way. She spent the day getting her resume together and watching Jeremy. I woke up with a sore throat which only got worse as the day went on. We went to the mall first. Dale gave Jeremy 10 dollars for Easter so we took him to pick out a toy. He picked out a pirate gun and sword combo. They're both very annoying. Then we went to the dollar store where Holly picked up therapy tools. We ate in the food court after that. I got a combo of General Tso's Chicken and Lo Mein. The food was Ok, not the best Chinese I've had. Jeremy had fries from Nathans and they were excellent. It took us forty five minutes of threats to get him to eat them all. I drank soda for the first time in at least 8 weeks. I'm starting to put on a few pounds but I'm too lazy to start working out. I may aim for a jogging schedule in the next week or so though. I have to get disgusted and motivated enough at the same time. Exchanged Scooby Doo and bought KOTOR again. Homie was in the game store but I avoided talkign to him. I only saw him at the last second. We headed towards Walmart. Jeremy started acting up in the store. Jimmy was in the store but I avoided him and went home. Scooby Doo worked right away but KOTOR didn't. It took a few tries to get the saved game to work. I'm giong to try the new save game on the old disc and see if it works. I took a quick nap before work. Holly made my lunch for me.
It was dusty again in work. Not as bad as the night before. People started cutting the labels off the bags of stuff they put down. I took down the address and I'm going to look into it. Everyone was wearing masks while at work. The night went fairly quick, even though it was cold and my throat was bothering me. I was supposed to go to the post office after work but I forgot the packages.

Last Weekend-Tuesday Morning
Went to bed at 6:30 and woke up at 8:15 for hockey. Jeremy actually went to bed with Mom and Dad. He didn't fall asleep right away but he didn't throw a fit either. I was all set to drive Chris's car to hockey when Ryan came around to pick me up. I really thought they drove last week but maybe they didn't. Tim and I were on a line together but we didn't play too well at all. Our defense wasn't really setting up the rushes. The annoying kid was on defense and he couldn't make the right pass for shit. Tim got fed up and dropped back to D for a little. He was blocking passes and shots pretty well. That kid didn't give me one pass and would try to break everyone. Fucking kid got two lucky goals. He had the balls to say to to Tim, "I'm glad you're playing defense because we need me on offense to win." Fucking idiot. Scored two goals. One was a mistake on a breakaway. I was going to shoot over his shoulder but it went five hole. Went home and watched the Ranger game. Shitty game. Put Jeremy's Big Wheel together while I was watching the game. The big wheel is still a bit too big but he'll grow into it in the next few weeks/months. I took a two hour nap after that. Got up and played some Call of Duty. I leveled up to 26 I believe. I unlocked a new set of Challenges in the Barracks. I made MVP on a Team Deathmatch! Tied a guy with 220 points during one round. I like that light machine gun that I unlocked a few levels ago.
I was wondering about World of Warcraft so I signed up for a free ten day trial. I made a druid character and put about an hour into the game. It wasn't a very exciting experience. The three or four missions I got were to kill a certain amount of beasts. I'm going to try to put some time into it this weekend so I can get a grasp of it. I'd rather have missions where you go exploring. The graphics on the game are nice and they run well on Chris's old computer. I think I want to get a two or three months membership for my birthday from my parents. I'd like to put the time into the game and really see what it's worth. When Holly and I have our own place I could even join a guild and play with people during designated times on certain days. Then you really get to see what the missions and MMO is all about. See if I like it or not.
My KOTOR stopped working on Monday morning. I got through most of the water world main mission and then the game started to get spotty. I wanted to play some side missions and found a few but don't know how to get into them. I tried to clean the disc with toothpaste and soap and water but it doesn't fix it. I'm going to buy another copy and return the defective one to EB games and then either sell the defective one or bring it back for store credit. I tried Riddick and I like it. The targeting system to pick up items reminds me of Deus Ex. It seems like a decent enough game.
My finger had healed pretty decently but hockey seems to have fucked up the scab. I kept working on it and eventually it didn't feel warm to the touch. The hockey gloves knocked the scab off a bit. Jeremy caught a slight cold from Asleigh. He sounds a bit better every day.
Dropped my keys off the dock first thing at work on Monday. Managed to fish them up with a dock hook. It was wet and things were slow going the whole night. Monday night's temperature was very nice but Tuesday night was nasty. The dock was mostly dry on Tuesday because they put the quickdry down. It was a nasty dust bowl in there. Almost everyone was wearing paint masks.
Holly and I are going to the mall today so she can get therapy materials and to return the games.
