Virtual insanity is what we're living in...

news, news, news. i finally made it out to St. Louis, and i am currently taking a break from slowly unpacking everything in my room. which, much like my website, will be a constant work in progress. i have to do some serious funiture shopping in the way of shelving for dvd/cds and my video games respectively since i have so many of each.
mike asked me to put the smoke detector back on the ceiling. mind you, this particular smoke detector has been down for about three months now. since the last time i came down to visit and i managed to set it off while i was taking a shower. not necessarily because the shower was that hot, but as it turns out, the smoke detector is right next to the bathroom door, which i had left open. at any rate, Mike asked me to put it back up. being that this is one of those fire detectors that are wired into the apartments electricity, this proved to be a bad idea. let us just say, that there was a popping sound, and flash of light. i managed to come away completely unscathed, with only a little temporary blindness. bright light, bright light.
apparently my sister also wants to come to S.L. for another birthday, not hers, but i believe it is a friend of hers, whom we shall call Tara -- because that is her name. but i don't believe that is supposed to occur until february. so there will be more on that as time progresses.
for the next several, however long it may take, i will be looking for a new place of employment. to look at my employment history, one would think that i have quite a great deal of trouble holding down a steady place of employment. but for the most part, i have quite most of the jobs i have worked at for one reason or another. and at least two of the places i worked at went out of business while i was still working for them. plus, and let the record show, i move quite a lot. so i have a work history spanning over four different states. which is just silly in itself.
well i am off to eat my lunch, and laugh some more at that fact the "douche" is the French word for shower. and they say yes "oui oui", those silly French. it's no wonder we had to invent the fries for them.
