Jeans and hoodie. 
What's your main PC? A laptop or desktop? How many monitors do you have hooked up? |

Spent Thanksgiving at my grandma's with my parents, sister, and nephew. Good times. Grandma bought beer for some of us for some reason... she still doesn't really get that I'm 30 and my sister is 24, treats us like toddlers and thinks we'll drive home drunk after one beer. Why did she get the beer? Oh grandma... 
Didn't see my dad's family, since my uncles weren't in town and his crazy stepmom doesn't do any family events without them. Maybe we'll see them around Christmas. No major Christmas plans yet. I'm already exhausted. Just not a fan of the holiday fever I guess.  |

| The winter also puts more pressure on me to just stay more too in general, lol.
"Then when Brandon and I post pictures of the shit we do, people occasionally remark on them (either in comments or in person, months later) asking why I didn't tell them about the event and/or invite them." I luckily haven't had that happen. Yikes. |

| That's a mess of messes. I've been at jobs where I've seen others sleeping around among co-workers, while they have relationships/children outside of work, so it's pretty gross and disturbing. I'm also kind of shocked how many married couples I see at my current job. I personally wouldn't want to work with a significant other, you need some space! Keep your worlds apart!
It's funny I saw a meme recently, how work friendships tend to be more intense and emotionally draining. Looking back at CVS and some of my previous jobs, I think that's totally true. I'm glad things are more low key and quieter at my current data entry job thesedays. Finally have a decent job I can just leave at the door when I clock out and not worry about a thing. |

| Now that you ask... I don't remember last week very well at all, haha. Guess my short term memory is resorted to just a few previous days. I think I remember the weekends a little better, so the work week is kind of a blur.
What's your favorite fruit and vegetable? |

Got some food poisoning, stomach bug, or some 24 hour thing at the most I hope... 
Threw up twice today, first time in like 25 years. Wasn't fun, but I felt a lot of relief. I've been getting shivers/sweats though so I'm worried this is leading into more issues. Been feeling awful for about 11 hours today so far... but I was finally able to get out and run to a gas station for some 7up, always seems to ease stomach issues for some reason. Ugh... I hope I'm almost done with this. |

| It is a nice little hidden place. Wish more people were still around though.
Lately I'm thinking about logging out of FB on my PC at least, I will be too lazy to log back in (can't remember my password either so I'd have to look it up in my notepad file which is even more effort). So logging out will probably keep me from checking it. I've done this in the past with deleting bookmarks to break free from places. Just really burned out on the internet/social media in general lately. I'm failing to find any positives and I think the information overload, notifications (hearing lately how people think we're not wired for this), etc and all that is truly fucking my memory, happiness, focus, etc. (Last edited by Xeoman on 12-13-17 09:23 PM) |

I'm real skeptical. In retrospect I don't like The Force Awakens or Rogue One much. |
Where's our Katana update?

Star Wars was like part of my blood for 90% of my life... so that might not bode well for me! I enjoyed KOTOR2's radically different take on the force, but other than that... I don't know.

Think I'm seeing it tomorrow morning.

SPOILERS AHEAD
|
Walked in expecting to hate it. Walked out emotionless. Binged videos and reviews about it all day. I've come to the conclusion that I hate it and it's the worst Star Wars movie by far. But I think the whole Disney package of films is bad and it will never be the same again. George Lucas at least set out to tell stories and had an imagination. This new stuff on the other hand has absolutely zero vision and they are making it up by the movie. This movie did not even follow up on questions JJ brought us with TFA, two big key things being about Snoke and Rey. Luke was utterly out of character, I commend Mark's great performance, but that was not Luke. This is someone who was ready to sacrifice everything and put down his sword instead of fighting his father to the death, whom murdered the Jedi and was an intergalactic monster everyone feared, Luke believed in him. But here, he merely senses darkness in his nephew and draws his sword ready to kill a child in cold blood. I'm flabbergasted. Not to mention they wanted us to believe that Luke became such a grumpy old guy and has been on this planet for 30 some years only to die, but it takes R2 showing him a little nostalgia and instantly Luke changes his mind. Nothing about the plot convenience of this was believable at all. Superman Leia was hilarious at best, yeah Star Wars has always dipped into fantasy... but that scene was atrocious (Carrie was great in this otherwise). Rose came out of nowhere and was totally pointless. Now with Carrie gone and a bunch of other characters dead, what can anyone say they are truly looking forward to with Episode 9? I don't know if there's a single thread I can find to care about. The casino world sucked. The constant reminder of "running out of fuel" was one of the funniest plot devices I've seen in a bit. And I liked Rey a lot in TFA, but not anymore. Only days pass between 7-8 and she's suddenly knocking down Luke and surpassing everyone, when Luke trained with Yoda for weeks/months. The continuity of the First Order and Resistance after Return of the Jedi makes absolutely no sense to me... I guess taking out the Death Star, The Emperor, and Darth Vader ultimately did nothing and the Rebels further diminished into this tiny rag tag group we're seeing now. This entire movie was a strange standoff between two ships that made no sense... shields and lack of fuel? Also in the beginning, how did Rose's sister drop those bombs out into space with the floor opening and she was just hanging out not getting sucked out into space? WTF? Tons of awful Marvel humor too. The tone and pacing was really bad, I wanted to look at my phone a few times throughout to check the time... Ultimately I have no idea what the plot of this movie on its own was about. A ship runs out of gas, Snoke wanted Rey to use her to lead to Luke but then immediately wants to kill her for some reason, some grumpy man is in Luke's body, Rey goes to train but not really, bunch of characters die and that's about it. Here's a thing... Hayden Christensen was pretty bad in the prequels, but those movies still had SO much more going on around him. These new movies on the other hand ride entirely on the shoulders of Kylo Ren and Rey... and I still absolutely hate Kylo Ren (and Adam Driver I guess). He comes off as a complete bitch and is just annoying. Now that this guy is the final boss and all the other interesting characters are killed off, it's becoming increasingly harder to care at all. Disney Star Wars = notmycanon. I just ordered the first Thrawn trilogy book and am going to get back to watching Clone Wars. Need some real Star Wars to wash this out. I will inevitably watch Episode 9 to see this trainwreck end, but I didn't even care to see Rogue One in theaters already and have no interest whatsoever in a Han Solo or other spinoffs, I don't care or have much interest in the future of Star Wars anymore. This is so sad and devastating as Star Wars was such an iconic series and thing in my life. Lucas sold his soul and Disney has fucking destroyed it. This guy sums it up best for me. Flaws aside, I will again standby that George Lucas had a vision and wanted to tell stories while building up this amazing imaginative world. Disney is making movies based off graphs and charts just to print money. (Last edited by Xeoman on 12-19-17 12:06 AM)

Yeah I was probably crazy sick for 5 days. Two weeks later I'm STILL having weird stomach/appetite inconsistencies though... hopefully it subsides eventually but if not I think I'll have to see a doctor, hopefully it's not some weird long lasting infection or something.

I had a lower hernia repaired with surgery... can you get yours fixed? Not that it's fun. It was like a month of recovery for mine.

Yup...

It doesn't seem too far fetched to think Disney will buy DC at some point. ESPN, now Fox, Lucasfilm, Marvel... what's next.  | ||||||||||||
