On working for the right people. The right people, being the government, more importantly, federal law enforcement agencies. If that happens, I will still be keeping up things here with nerd posts.
I am not a fan of my new supervisor. He seems to hate part timers. We all went from having 6-8 hours shift, to 4-5 hour shifts. No longer get meal breaks. So If I close, which I do about two times a week, I can go from not eating from 5:30pm until midnight or even later. If I work at 6pm, I can be there until midnight and not be required to take a break. He also doesn't want any input from us and thinks we are incompetent. Sure, some of my co-workers are incompetent but someone who has a degrees in criminal justice and policitcal science with a concentration in International Relations, I am not an incompetent person. Apparently I am only worth 8.65 an hour though. My friend and his uncle want me to work for them in another short term capacity but we'll see. I am going to push for these federal jobs. Sure it is better money but I am not about the money. This is what I want to do with my life, what I have been dreaming of since I was in 6th grade, right after the super hero and astronaut phases.
Tomorrow after the appointment I have to take my dad to, I will be sitting down to work on applications and my resume all day until work again. I seriously hope I hear back sooner than later on these. I will still be going to the Work in the Industry panel at PAX East on Sunday morning, keeping my options wide open there.
I deleted my Myspace account. I am just waiting for the email to confirm it and I will be done with that. Next up is cleaning my Facebook page out of all the crap from college. I have signed on, maybe, 30 times in the almost year since I graduated college.
After PAX East I will be joining the YMCA with my friend. Gonna get back to work on staying in shape and being healthy. I had my last free range soda today. I will only be drinking one soda a day, either with lunch or dinner. After that is is water or other nutritious drinks.
After that, I am just excited about PAX East.

Hiyo
That is usually the way I make my presence known in a skype chat...or when I text a friend to say "let's hang out tonight".
To start off, I failed at writing ANYTHING, ANYWHERE about PAX, now PAX Prime (not West, that is just dumb.). This blog has been inactive since and mainly due to no traffic. Most of anything I write and want people to read, goes up on my RT journal. I will be going to PAX East in 23 days though and will blog my way through it.
I worked retail this past holiday season and I think I would have preferred to be MOS Qualified and shipped to Afghanistan/Iraq instead of doing that again. It was horrendous. Here is the deal with holiday shopping. The majoirty of the people in this world (and I say majority because there are definitely exceptions to the rule) who shop during the holiday season are rude pricks. The work I want to get into will be tiring and will require me to exert a ton of energy but nothing compares to energy sapping from working in retail during the holiday season.
Coming up though I have a fun month ahead of myself. PAX East kicks off the festivities in late March. Two days after that, I will be heading into Manhattan to meet Gabe and Tycho for their book signing. Yep, I am driving to Boston (as well as flew to Seattle) without meeting or having the intention of meeting the guys behind the Expo. The end of the week, I will be heading to ComixNY to see Iliza Shlesinger perform live. April 5th, Sonata Arctica will be in NYC performing and I don't want to miss that.
April dies down until the 24th when I head to Castle Conquest at EMR Paintball in Pa. Defending the castle with JJ, Bob, and my friend Uccio. I have bought some gear for the game and am very excited for this. I think the numbers are 14,000 attackers against us 1,000 defenders.
