Re: Off Topic 2011

Sigh, my fiance is crazy as ****. She found a program through Cornell that would put her in NYC for one semester and in Paris for another, and she wants me to come too.

Hard to find a full-time job for a semester in a country where you don't speak the language. It's becoming fairly obvious that she's going to want to be extremely mobile. I just want to live in a place, go on vacation a couple of times per year, and have roots, ya know?

This is a problem in my relationship , too... I have to finish school, and to do that we've had to move into a cheaper place once, I may end up living on campus simply because I don't have time to take the drive and find a place 3 hours from here , and can't leave my job on weekdays. Thing is because I'm older, I seem to call the shots- we go where I need to. It bothers me, because I end up being followed around. I tried to explain "It's only 1.5 hours away, you can stay here keep your job, and start at community college now that you want to do school." But if someone doesn't want to live without your help, or has to pay their own bills for the first time ever what I can do? The other problem is the first semester I got a 4.0 , because I was alone in the cheaper place. Since we moved into this apartment we have now , I've gone from 3.7 to 3.1 because I can't focus. I'm worried I'll have a problem studying with someone CONSTANTLY hounding me "let's go do something, let's go do something" so I'd prefer to stay alone.

Never brush your teeth and then drink yellow Gatorade. Tasted like I vomited in a glass and drank it. But it woke me up enough to get NCAA 12.

... you guys know you can download a Kate Upton theme on the marketplace? I feel so warm and fuzzy inside when I turn on my 360 and she is staring at me. I also feel bad at the same time.

Re: Off Topic 2011

Man....I hope this game was worth the hassle.

Okay, partly it was my fault but still....

So the EB location nearest me is not exactly down the road but it's not far either so I went to trade in LA Noire and get NCAA 12. So I go there and find out I need gov't ID to trade the game in. I was kinda stupid not to have my ID with me so that was my bad. I go home, get my ID and get back there. By this point i'm starting to sweat a bit (it's a really hot sunny day here) and I show the guy my photo ID which happens to be my health card. Needless to say he came up with some cockaminie story about how it's illegal for him to use that ID as proof as only medics are allowed to do that.

At this point i'm a bit pissed off because I tell the guy i've used the ID to go to casinos and bars with NO PROBLEM but he says it's out of his hands and that he's sorry for the inconvenience. He then asks if I have a passport or birth certificate. I didn't answer him but I said i'm leavin....

So ANOTHER trip through the heat and humidity and I get my passport. Luckily this time I was able to trade in the game and get NCAA 12.

SIGH!


Thanks for letting me vent

Orange juice right after brushing is pretty rancid also.

Wow, that was a dick move on that guy's part. I use the same thing and I sometimes get an unsure reaction because the ******* working isn't sure if they're allowed to use them, but really they are. But even the ones that aren't sure always let me use it anyways. I've never been told I can't.

Anyways, off I go to get mines. That better not happen to me.

You Canadians and your wacky ways, needing a stinking passport to trade a game in. NCAA 12 is totally worth the hassle you went through.
