I hope things work out at your job, Roger.

The surgery thing sucks, Nigel. :( Sorry things are so crappy right now.

I had a mid-shift today. Clearly I have been doing this work thing wrong. Closing is all heavy lifting and scouring and cleaning and reassembling heavy machinery. Mid-shifting? Stand around and do nothing for four hours, wait on customers for two, and do some dishes before skipping off merrily out the door.

If I've pinned the pattern down, that means opening is pretty much sitting in the office and masturbating over a turkey sub while sipping coffee. I should try that next.

After work, pulled half of my hair out because it got caught on something in the shower, (keep writing hate instead of) ate a delicious dinner and THEN I spent way too much time calculating the exact yardage of yarn used in a single granny 12'' square block.

Also, I'm super broke again. Or still. Whatever.

Nah, opening likely sucks, too.

I've started my new shift pattern this week.  So for instance, right now, I'm off duty.  Which feels weird.  I'm going to have to get used to the idea that I'm only working at night now.  And since I can sleep for most of that...

Well, that guy is having a worse day than I am. :(

Noobing it up, old school.  Playing the classic human soldier, with the Avenger X assault rifle.  This wasn't even a popular class when the demo was out, let alone four DLCs and several dozen patches later.

The thing is, with some micromanagement, it's actually a not entirely terrible class.  Admittedly, strapping on something more powerful than the Avenger would help (I'm thinking Cerberus Harrier + Barrage V), but the whole point of playing this class is to get the Avenger challenge out of the way and bring me one step closer to ASSAULT RIFLE MASTERY.

I mean, I managed to get 20 headshots with it in the last game, which is 10 more than average, and racked up a respectable 75+ kills.  Adrenaline Rush does give an extra 70% damage, but the base damage of the Avenger is so low in the first place it can't be affecting it that much.

I could throw it on a caster class, like an Engineer or something, but when I play said class, I tend to go for power based kills first, with the weapons as backup in case shit gets real.  If shit got real, an Avenger would be as useful as an ice-carving of a butterfly in the middle of a nuclear strike zone.  So I need something that makes me have to use it.

The Turian Soldier would probably be good too - shoot faster and more damage on the headshots, not to mention more shields - but I've played that a lot lately.  He's my go-to class when I don't want to have to try hard.  A sniper rifle and an SMG and he's able to go anywhere and kill anything with appalling ease.  Human Soldier is more of a challenge.

Four different financial institutions are giving me way more grief than I need to deal with. Fuckers. Word to the wise: Closing a business is a LOT harder than starting one. At least Paypal and American Express backed their asses off. Now I just need to get Ipayment to explain why they charged me $129 6 months after I closed my account.

Also, AVOID THE SHIT out of Authorize.net and iPayment. They are terrible.

NIGELIZE THEM.  :argh!:

I'm trying. That might require hiring a lawyer, though, and I'm broke.
