Work and waiting for the storm.

So I haven't posted at all for a long time. I am still getting into the swing of things with work, my hours are rather long, and working six days a week can sometimes get hectic, especially when I am doing capoeira and trying to find time to get out and, you know, meet people.

The truth is, there is not too much to report and I haven't been thinking too creatively, and all my projects seem to have been put on the back burner while I get this work business sorted out. I am a creature of patterns and routine, I need it, crave it and desire it over all things, otherwise given a choice I would relax and get next to nothing completed. Like now.

Did you know:

1. Santa originally did not wear red. The red came from when Coca-cola redesigned the image for its marketing purposes. Coca cola being derived from the coca plant and kola nut, both can be pretty powerful stimulants. Add caffeine and you have a pretty nice combo for the christmas season
2. Zombies, due to the effects of Adam's Heat Transfer Theory, do not do well under extreme cold conditions. Christmas was originally a time to relax and respite against the constant zombie threat. This was before Christian times, around 3420 BC during the Fourth Zombie Crisis in the fertile crescent. Every Christmas you should relax and enjoy your family because you have only a few months before you have to start zombie killing again.
3. Vampires are gay.
4. Everyone is ga-ga apeshit over Apple and Mac products, but remember they are the antithesis of what it means to be free. Consider the following: Mac is incompatible with nearly all other OS systems, you have no other choice but to use Macs propietary software which is more and more becoming filled with advertising. Mac has such a tight control over every aspect of its system, that if someone creates a program that would attempt to establish new functions or allow non-propietary software use, the entire product will lock up. It will brick and you will be up the creek. Mind you most Mac users have no need for anything else that might be outside of the iRealm of Macintosh-approved programming, so I doubt they care about the dictatorial steps Mac takes to control their system. This is not a confidence vote for most PC systems, incidentally.
5. When watching a mechanic disconnect a high pressure hydraulic pump hose and knowing full well that it will spray everywhere, take steps to avoid getting sprayed with hydraulic fluid. Instead of curiously watching to see what will happen. Hydraulic fluid in your eyes makes your vision blurry.
6. Sometimes if the lighting is right you can see your butt reflection in the water when sitting on the loo. You may be surprised to learn that you have never seen yourself make a doody, and that would be the perfect chance to.
7. Always wait to hear explanation, even though you are sure it will be crap. Be patient and understanding. Its well worth it.
