[ 7.13.09 - 12.30pm ] grimmy23 [ mood | curious ] Planning on an actual post today or tomorrow but I have to ask: Anyone who saw True Blood last night, what did Jessica make that guy yell? I couldn't understand him. Post Comment

[ 7.10.09 - 1.07pm ] grimmy23 [ mood | restless ] Blech. Ok, yesterday I found out that Schwan's has sushi rolls now. I was so excited since the Schwan's guy delivers here every other week. I bought a package and not so patiently waited to have it for lunch today. It's rated very highly by most of the people on the site. I've never had frozen rolls before so maybe that's a part of it. I worked at a sushi restaurant where all the fish was incredibly fresh and I got to eat them minutes after it was made. The little pack comes with a spicy shrimp roll and a california roll as well as wasabi, chopsticks, pickled ginger and soy sauce. Perfect little lunch box, right? The California rolls were edible and that is the only good thing I can say about them. The spicy shrimp roll was really not bad at all BUT, they don't sell it separately. I would so buy the spicy shrimp roll box if it was, just for when I'm dying for sushi but don't want to drive 1+ hours to get some. So, I'm not going to buy it again unless they sell them individually and not in the ‘variety tray'. The Cali roll was borderline icky and its just not worth the money to only enjoy half of the meal. I think I need to take the reviewers out for some GOOD sushi. I'm very alone in this office and I've actually already done all the work I need to do for the day. So, I opened up my GIMP and tried to make icons for the icontests that I have pending. Instead, I wound up making icons out of comic strips. Snag ‘em if you want them. The Get Fuzzy one's didn't turn out as well as the Peanuts and Garfield icons. The quality of the caps aren't great but I love Bucky so much. The office is closed at noon today. There is a funeral for one of the bailiffs who worked at the courthouse/jail across the street so, the Courthouse is closed too. My bosses may or may not come back after the funeral. If they don't I'm leaving at 4:30 today. My gamefly came this morning with Fallout 3 inside. Guess what I'm going to do this weekend? Read 7 // Post Comment

[ 7.9.09 - 9.21am ] grimmy23 I was just clicking around on IMDB and went over to Tim Burton's producer page. He has 1984 on his list. *is excited* http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000318/ Read 2 // Post Comment

[ 7.8.09 - 9.15am ] grimmy23 [ mood | tired ] One week from today, after work, I'm driving up to Tulsa to pick up wickedoll. Then on Thursday morning, we're going to hit the road and head down to Texas for the weekend. We're going to have so much fun. I can't wait! As you may (or may not) already know, I participate in three or four icontests a week as well as a rumble. I figure the only way to get better is to practice. I made these for disney_hush. None of them won or anything but I'm still really proud of how they turned out. I bought myself Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass because I realized that I'd never actually read it. *slaps hand* for shame I also bought two older movies that I love to watch when I just need a pick me up. What a Way to Go! (seriously... its silly and loads of fun to watch) and Arsenic and Old Lace. Ok, I guess I should get to work now. Read 8 // Post Comment

[ 7.6.09 - 2.14pm ] grimmy23 [ mood | bored ] I haven't really posted in a while and I don't really have anything to add today either. Took the boys to see Ice Age 3 on Friday. Very cute. Saturday, mom played Infinite Undiscovery all day and I got all my laundry caught up. Yesterday, everyone left and me and the boys marathoned The Twilight Zone. About 5 hours worth, it was awesome. Today is the last day here at work with no boss; so I've been playing with GIMP. I think I need to sit down and watch some tutorials or something. *sigh* Watch this space... I'm going to post icons.

oh beautiful... [ 7.4.09 - 9.03pm ] calm_lips [ mood | happy ] There's something so magical about the Fourth of July. I don't know what it is, but I love Independence Day here in the U.S. I have memories of hot dogs and firecracker popsicles and watching the fireworks with my family... And I always get a strong patriotic feeling run through me on this day. I love it. I hope everyone else is having an amazing day (whether you live in the U.S. or not!). Post Comment

[ 7.2.09 - 4.18pm ] grimmy23 [ mood | restless ] Been spending the majority of the day making icons and working. I'm quite pleased that my icons are looking better. I'm still not the greatest but much better than I was. I'm participating in a rumble, which is awesome and something I wouldn't have done last year at this time. I picked my character because I did such a crappy job on the character when they came up in the icontest. I'm still having a difficult time with actual people but I'm getting better at those too... slowly. Still, I'm trying. I haven't made a single Supernatural icon since I'm still staying out of that fandom. I can't wait until the new season starts though. *squee* Some icons for my own reference ( of course you can look too ) Read 2 // Post Comment

[ 7.1.09 - 11.46am ] grimmy23 [ mood | hungry ] Update, in bullets ♥ Ok, first of all, tell me that you've seen the preview for zombieland.. ♥ The boys discovered that the Sci-Fi channel is going to be having a Twilight Zone marathon on Thursday so, they set up the DVR to record them all since I will be at work. Woot. ♥ Tonight, I'm going to go see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with a girl at work. I think that I'm going to pick up a pizza or something for the boys so that I don't have to worry about cooking. ♥ A lady (not a client) just called here and said her name was Roberta Pattinson. Color me amused. ♥ My headset on my dictation machine just snapped in half. Sucks. ♥ I am starving. Forgot to eat breakfast and I don't have any snacks here. I could go next door to get an onion bagel and cream cheese but I hate to leave when my boss is going to be gone this afternoon and for the next few days. ♥ My boss is going to be out of the office until MONDAY! Numfar! Do the dance of joy! ♥ Mom and I watched Confessions of a Shopaholic. It was a cute little movie. Not a complete waste of 1.5 hours. I won't be watching it again though. ♥ Yesterday one of my drivers corrupted (apparently a power surge zapped it) and my screen resolution was stuck on 800 x 600 and the color quality was stuck on 4. If I opened IE, I got a fatal error and the whole computer froze and shut down. If I had more than one program opened, I got a fatal error and the whole computer shut down. *sigh*. So, I had to reboot the computer in safe mode which meant that I wasn't networked. Thank goodness for zip drives. You see, the main problem with me not being networked is that I am the network. So, if anyone wanted to work on something I had to copy it to a zip drive, they'd work on it, give it back and then I'd save the new file over the old file. To make it just that much more convenient, the printer that I normally print from is attached to a computer that is older than my children. So, in order to print, I either had to wait for Methuselah to find my file or walk to the OTHER end of the building to print my documents (which of course I had to save to a zip drive). Then the tech came and reinstalled my driver. Now, all is happy in my world again. Read 6 // Post Comment
