Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Thought I would quote David bowie today....because changes is what this blog entry is all about......the business, where I work, has been sold......and the new owner seems nice......unfortunately, there has been some........misinformation.......about me passed on......so it makes me contemplate, very seriously, whether i want to remain working there or not......also, my soon-to-be EX-employer has made some very erroneous assumptions about me that I cannot, will not accept...... so my decision may already be made......time will tell....the incoming owner is already making some big changes to the place, so things will be getting very interesting in the near future........I decided, last night, after watching the very.....um.......alright John Carter movie...pretty ok effects..but i dont recall them explaining why he could jump so well....i would have to guess the gravity onthe planet he ended up on is alot less strong than earth......they really didnt mention it was only a copy of himself sent to the other planet, his other self was...well...i wont ruin it in case you havent seen it..but i understand why it was such a flop......, to pull a semi all-nighter, and play, and ultimately complete, super mario 2 on the original, my original NES......i havent played in many years, but i still got through it......I wasnt in a good mood last night and wanted to get my mind off things, so i regressed to the early 90's remembering how hard it was to find a copy of mario 2 anywhere!!!!!!  It was crazy! oh, and if you had'nt noticed, I managed to do 2 blogs in one months...thats a record for me i think......Today, laundry and relaxing, because I dont have a day off until Thursday, Thanksgiving day.....and fro some odd reason, I have to work on black friday! I'm hoping some day to have black friday off so I can stand in the Walmart parking lot and midnight in the cold, trying to get my hands on a super cheap electronic nick-nack or another.....or maybe not!!!   until next time.....

election fiasco, first snowfall....wwaaayyy to long between blogs

Greetings everyone! ya I know, its been since October since I have posted..my humblest apologies...i've said it before and i'll say it again, i'll try to do better..honest i will...anywho..onward and upward, we got our first snow of the season last night, folowing a very loud wind and rain storm.....so its freakin cold right now!  I bought a new yarrs revenge seeing as my original one partially died......so i'm a happy camper once again! ive got a couple mental lists of atari carts i want to get in the near future....they're pretty cheap on ebay so i can collect a few gems......also, i have a mental list of nintendo carts i want to collect, namely mega man series for the original NES, theyre not cheap nowadays, but shockingily enough, ive never played mega man! so i am going to save my pennies and start collecting them......I managed to get the raking done shortly before the wind started bloing pine needles down again...grumble....sometimes wonder why i bother =) I know I've mentioned in the past, change was in the air...well, the "change" has finally revealed itself....i cant discuss it here just yet, but i'll put it this way...i read my horoscope a couple weeks ago, and the last line read "there will be changes at work" well, as amazing as it sounds, ive never considered the fact that horoscopes could be accurate, just fun to read...change is indeed happening at my work....i will reveal more about it in the coming weeks... to be honest with you, i don't feel too good about the coming change, as a matter of fact, i may be leaving this job come december.......i dont know what i'm gonna do for work, but ive got a few weeks to figure things out......like that old song says "should I stay or should I go now!!!"  lets see..what else is happening? I had an alright halloween..i did my usual tradition..to a degree..no dominoes pizza, but i did have my usual 3 bags of candy bars, buttersingers, mounds, and reeses peanut butter cups, and plenty of coke to weash it down with, and i watched the first three nightmare on elm street movies well into the wee hours of the morning......and had a lovely candy hangover in the morning! well worth it tho! at least once a year anyway!  I recently bought a couple transformers..i got bumblebee and thundercracker....they sure made them a pain to transform! but kind of cool none the less..it irks me that they decided to make bumblebee a camaro, he would have been a really cool new beetle....so much for tradition! heh...... i'm still not done with the wheel of time series yet.....ive got 4 qand 1/4 books to read before memory of light comesout in early January...i'm almost finished with winters heart..try to finish it tonight......ive got tons of other books to read so i'm looking forward to this series ending...on the other hand, i'll be sad to see it go.....oh well....such is life i guess......actually, theres another small change that has occured lately..i've started grinding my own coffee bens once again, and ive started getting up a little earlier so i can enjoy my coffee in the mornings before work, as well as my days off....ive found some real good blends and beans at rather fair prices...don francisco beans as an example...i'm drinking a hazelnut cinnamon blend right now thats out of this world..i cant wait to use it to make irish coffee this winter!!!!  speaking of booze....heh....ive managed, using good timing with sales and finding coupons, to get some really quality booze the last couple months, namely, bacardi select spiced rum, beefeater london dry gin, and a bottle of makers mark bourbon..good stuff all! i even managed to try some new brews as well....dundee sampler packs, shiner bock, brewed in shiner texas! and a few new sam adams brews! i have to enjoy the goo dlife when i can! ive even been enjoying some fine pipe tobacco and premium cigars...arturo fuente and cohibas, as far as cigars go.....and i picked up a coupe of very good gl pease pipe tobacco blends that i really like...latakia blends..i lllooovveeee latakia! other than that..thats about all thats going on....oh ya...the elections....cringe....shudder.....wretch.....  i finally saw proof of the depth of stupidity in this country......of course, it seems whites are becoming a minority in this country, so the precipitous drop in intelligence in this country is to be expected...so i have decided, i am going to look into leaving this country and renouncing my citizenship....may not happen right away...maybe a few years in the future..but i am out of this god forsaken dieing country..look on the bright side..i'll be able to smoke cuban cigars, and drink cuban rum, and be out of the reach of the fda if it chooses to regulate cigars and pipe tobaccos, and all tobaccos..hopefully it wont happen, but i'm not holding my breath....and seeing as the 2nd amendment may well be in trouble now that odipshit got re-elected, so it will be for the best......i may not find a country with as good of firearm laws as the us..but i can live with it......i'm not a huge gun nut by any means......but i like the idea of being able to defend myself if need be.......as previous;y mentioned, i will try to be better about regular blog postings in the future....you've heard it before, hopefully i can keep to my word thisd time ;P......until next time......
