Missed the Boat

It looks like I missed the boat on that Pixar deal. I talked to that friend of mine on the production and it sounds like they did most of their hiring before Xmass, when I wasn't available to be hired (stupid grad school). I guess I need to simply keep casting longer nets out in my given field. I hate not having a job.

Grrrrrrrmmmmmm

I'm super irritable today. I just told a friend of mine in my own dumb way that he's being an ass and to get the point. Of course this started an even stupider argument about how big an ass I'm being for calling him out. of course I'm being an ass, but a proportional ass. Of course this is mostly my fault for being irritable and not checking my mouth so to say. But honestly the friend in question is being a complete ass and I'd prefer to keep my trap shut.

Still Sick

A week later and I'm still sick, but add a bit of green phlegm to the equation. Other then passing on my upper resporitory problems to a bunch of dumbasses this last week, it has sucked to be sick. I am sick of being sick.

Cough Cough Cough

This weekend I went to a red neck convention. This was really odd timing, in part because I have a upper respiratory infection and the Gifford shooting.
My nephew has been wanting a .22 rifle for a while, so I thought as a bday present I'd find him a used one. On the way over to the convention I heard about the shooting. Upon arriving it was apparent that no one seemed to know about the shooting, especially as their was the normal load of right wing dumbness going on. Fortunately for me, I had a hard time finding what I was looking for and had a chance to spread my URI very widely, as I made sure to touch every firearm I could and do as much uncovered coughing as possible. I also made sure not to wash my hands after I needed to use the restroom.

I tend to believe in fairly open interpretation of the 2nd amendment, but I fucking hate the NRA and all the bullshit they surround themselves with. Fucktards.

Sick

Phlegm throat and lots of coughing, plus the required stuffed up nose.
I hate this, I hate this and I really hate this.
