Hey hey. Typing right now sucks for me, as I do not have full bendability of my left ring finger. I noticed that a bump and formed near the knuckle I thought I might have broken/fractured/whatever, and informed my sister of this fact whilst I was at my house. She proceeded to put it in a splint. Now I can't bend it. I don't like that much at all.
It was my nephew's birthday party today. That was fun, it was great to get to see him, as well as my sister and brother-in-law, especially now that he says words, mainly truck. He loves cars and trucks right now. My second nephew, Christopher (as that will be his name), is going to be coming along in about 26 days, so that's exciting as well.
Just got back to Stillwater, so I'm going to relax a bit before i go to bed, and since typing is such a pain in the neck, I don't want to type anything else.

Yes, I know, two titles in a row with puns, sorry. Working Friday night at the movie theatre, haven't done that in quite awhile, been on a vacation it almost seems. Started work at about 6:30, the 7, 7:30, 8, 9:30 & 10 o'clock show times for the move Passions of the Christ had already sold out. Busy, yes, but not too bad. The crowd coming to see this movie aren't as much into buying concessions unfortunatly, and as a movie theatre makes all their money from the concession stand, that's not the best. It's not horrible, but not quite up to par. And the movie is in our 3 biggest auditoriums, so it's not selling out because of small theatre placement.
Anyways. Normal day at college. Nothing to spectacular. I pick my informative speech topic, acid reflux/stomach problems. Figured I might pick up my old old old camera pictures of my stomach when they shoved that camera down my throat so long ago. Not sure if I got any from when they made me drink that horrid stuff, followed by the even more horrid stuff and then watched what the mixture of horrid horrid stuff did in my stomach via x-ray. Gotta love the smith stomach.
My friend, Jay Chou now has his picture displayed on the PotterFam.com front page. Maybe he'll update his blog now.
Well, back to work, lines and cashiers needing change, good thing I'm a fast typist.
TUMEO.
At work, once again. Passions of Christ opened yesterday, as some of you may know. Right now it is incredibly busy, with 3 of our largest auditoriums sold out. Many churchs have bought out other showings as well. It looks like a pretty interesting movie, it is graphically violent, as it attempts to be as accurate to the actual events of Christ as it can be. I hope to see it just to see how they did on it. Of course, there are several other movies I wish to see as well, but I work on Friday and Saturday and then Sunday I am going to Texas for my nephew's birthday party.
Don't have time to type anything else, gotta go back up front, as I'm just now done with paperwork, busy busy busy.... Thursdays are suppose to be dead, nice and easy for inventory nights...... ::sigh::
TUMEO.
I just noticed that Erik has not updated yet today, I must post before he does, just encase he tries to get one in like I am doing!!!
Had a lovely floor meeting tonight. Might do a floor paintball trip some upcoming weekend. Also, priority sign-up is happening soon. I'll be attempting to sign-up for the suites this fall and spring semester upcoming, with a friend from work who is coming up to OSU after a year at TCC. It'll be nice having a roommate I suppose. He's a cool guy, and I'm sure we'll get along. He's a bit more active, and might end up dragging me out to places, which is a good thing that I need. I might just as easily not see head nor tails of him too, since he might be so active. He's also in good ol' ROTC.
Well, I informed Erik of the title of this entry as I was typing it, so he did infact beat me. Oh well, at least he updated. Hopefully he'll add some interesting tid bits later, maybe on tommorrows date, after he's played a game or something. Maybe he'll add some nice links for me to download some demos of games or something and I'll go kick his butt.
TUMEO.
My possibly broken/smashed/bruised/fractured knuckle is starting to give me pangs of pains every now and then. Might be the healing process. I think I might look into the facilities provided by the university and see if I can have them look at it or something. I probably should just tape it up, but taht would hinder my typing ability, and that's just no fun whatsoever.
People in FFXI on my LinkShell where having a somewhat debate on politics, concerning the upcoming election. Twas amusing to read.
I'm going to eat some late lunch now, then take a nap maybe.
TUMEO.
For those of you that check my site daily, you might notice that an entry for Sunday has suddenly appeared that you don't recall being there before. I had made it, but some how had managed to change the post status to "Draft" instead of "Publish" so it didn't show up. Guess I didn't check my site because of how late it was when I made it. I even have the configuration to default the choice to Publish mode, must have been really tired when I was messing with it I guess.
Anyways, today classes are over with so my happiness level has at least doubled so far. Yesterday's birthday celebration for Emily went well. She posted a few pictures on her site. We ate at Caraba's Itilian Grill, a very nice place where I enjoyed the food a lot. Have to go there and check out the desserts next time. After dinner, we went to Wal-Mart and I got Emily her birthday present, she had no idea what she wanted this year, so not an easy buy, plus I've been extra lazy. I also managed to get a birthday present for Kyle as well, so two birds with one stone, yeppie. Squeezed in quite a few other things as well, soda pop, some hostess mini muffins (banana walnut), and some stuff.
Alright, well, let's see if I can be productive today.
TUMEO.
(**Edit**)P.S. - GG Draft Status means Good Game Draft Status
Yesterday night I went out with my sister, her fiance, friend Chrissy and boyfriend Justin, to Club 54 for her pre-birthday having fun thing. It was pretty interesting. There was a lot of smoke, but it wasn't too bad. Lots of girls there, and my sister dragged me onto the dance floor and had me dance a little. I didn't stay out there for too long though.
I also so the movie 50 First Dates with my sister and Kane (that's the fiance). I thought it was pretty good, and enjoyed it. Lots of cute little scenes.
Well, it is 2am nearly. I didn't post yesterday, because when I was reading my site, I noticed I hadn't posted on a Saturday yet this month, so i thought I might as well keep the tradition alive.
Ok, time for sleep, have more celebrating for my sister's b-day once I wake up.
TUMEO.
I think I actually noticed this last night as I was going to sleep laying in my bed. I might have broken or fractured one of my knuckles, not the main knuckle thingy though, that first bending part after the knuckle, and it's on my ring finger of my right hand. It got bruised for sure on last Saturday from air hockey when the puck it the same spot twice in two different games. I was feeling the difference between the two knuckles on either hand last night, and they do feel different, and my right one still hurts, though it is still bruised. So, yeah, I'll have my sister look at it or something, she's in school for that, so she should be able to tell, even without an x-ray machine, because she should have magical powers by now, right?
Took my first speech test today, yeppie, I think I MIGHT have done ok on it. At least all the tests only count as much as a speech, so even if I don't do great on it, it won't matter quite as much.
Heading to Tulsa tonight, unless I am too tired around the time I am going to leave, then I'll head for Tulsa on Saturday morning. Going to be doing stuff for my sister's birthday.
That's about it.
TUMEO.
Thursday, and updating from work real quick between paperwork and adjusting 30 thermostats.
I did, in fact, get the copy by which I can make the flash animation I was wanting. However, my friend gave it to me in a format I need to mount a "virtual drive" with, that or burn it onto a cd. I'll probably burn it onto cd, since I am not as familiar with messing with virtual drives, not that that is hard, but would require me to read or something. Such annoyances, the version I had that got corrupted, just double click, so simple.
If you didn't catch it, that was another reason I haven't posted what TUMEO means.
Ok, thermostat time.
TUMEO.
Ok, so, I go to start working on that awesome flash animation I was talking about, I start looking for the lovely flash program by which I planned to make it with, and I can't find it. That wasn't that big of a deal, it just meant I hadn't installed it. So I find the installer, double click it: "WinZip Self-Extractor header corrupt. Possible cause: bad disk or file transfer error". This has upset me greatly. Anyways, it means I can't make anything, and havent' for been able to for awhile. I am sad, I have a friend that is uploaded the neccessary files to make it work, sending me his copy of the copy of mine that is corrupted, thus, eventually making me unsad. However, this means no posting today. I MIGHT get it, and get it installed, AND get it made still, and if I do, I will post it as soon as I am finished.
In other news: I am now, along with my compatriot, Erik, an offical A-Kon Volunteer this year. This means free entry, but also time devoted to working. This working, however, will be in what is called the KAOS room, which is the Computer/LAN room, where you can pay per hour to play on computers and such. Hopefully we can get schedules that are together.
Sleep draws near, I think........
TUMEO.
The question running through my mind right now: Can I type this entry faster than the 3 minutes I have left until the clock turns over to a new day? The question running through at least two other peoples head: What the heck does TUMEO me? My answers:
Time flew by and I lost track of it, thus not creating the awesome flash I had planned. I could just spill the beans and tell you, however, as I have ample time tommorrow, I will simply do it then. So you do not receive an answer yet, hahahaha.
The first question, yes, I did.
TUMEO.
What is TUMEO that I put at the bottom of every single one of my posts now-a-days, you ask? Well, I could tell you, but then I'd have told you. What fun is that? Hehe, I'll post what it is tommorrow, I'll make it a flash animation that should look cool, in memory of some old things I used to do way back in the day, and I mean, waaay back. It might actually be the root of my making lego animations, interesting.
Anyways, I'm way tired, and nearly going to miss todays post, so that's all for now, just to tell you to look for tommorrow.
TUMEO.
Well, Brad now offically has a wife. They decided to go and get married last night due to a few reasons, so congratualations to the Turley's now.
I'm about to head out to Tulsa in the next hour or so. Gotta get my laundry done and a few other things, like my oil changed.
Nothing much else to say really.
TUMEO.
Here I am, sitting at ye ol' Starworld 20. Another week of college nearly done, too many more yet to come. It's getting super cold outside again, ::sigh:: , and I'm starving at the moment, need to go get some Wendy's or call my sister and see if she's making our father go get food or something. In fact just dialed the home phone number. Yep, dad's at the Y (YMCA) getting his exercise one, so that should make mother happy. I'll have to wait another 30 minutes to see if I'll be getting some free food, or going and buying some Wendy's.
After talking to my sister, looks like next weekend is doing her birthday party, then the next weekend after that my sister, Laura is wanting to do Kyle's birthday, in advance because of baby shower for Christopher who should be coming soon. So, I have a busy next couple of weekends it would seem, Wedding, Birthday, Early Birthday.
Alright, well, I need to finish entering in paperwork, so later.
TUMEO.
It's nearly past time for me to make an entry. I *almost* missed posting on another day, and once again it was NillaJ's fault. He is such a jerk. He's leaving in a few minutes to head back to Tulsa. We didn't get any "physical" webwork done, however, we got some brain storming and ideas. I should making the changes soon, so that will be cool.
I don't really have too much to say. Nothing much going on today. Stomach gave me some trouble earlier, but tis fine now.
My sister, Emily's birthday is coming up on the 22nd. I think it would be great if I bought her a new kitten, don't you?
Ok, time to help James get out of here.
TUMEO.
I missed updating yesterday, but that is entirely and without doubt, Nilla James's (aka White James, aka JayJay) fault. See, he came up on Monday night around 11pm, and we brought his stuff up and what not, as he's staying until wendesday, as we are hoping to get some webwork done. Yesterday he ended up keeping me busy until 3am helping him in FFXI. Dang him!! It's all his fault.
I'm about to go start writing up a program for C programming class, yeppie, such a toughie. I'll be busy with that for about 15 minutes.... if that long. Then hopefully I'll beat Nilla over the head and make him do some webwork too.
Nothing else much. Well, my friend, Brad is getting married on Saturday, the 14th, so that is something for sure.
Alright programming time.
TUMEO.
It is now the day after of seeing the ballet, Giselle. I will now, briefly, quote what a friend said to me after I came back from they ballet, "people stuff on stage whilst I'm bored to sleep". While this sentence isn't the best contructed you might have seen, it seems to be the general thought pattern that is associated with males towards a lot of preforming arts, most generally towards operas and ballets. I, myself, however, was not bored at this performance, but enjoyed it. I find it interesting the abilities of the ballet performers to fly through the air, it takes such a level of strength, balance and control. If you are ever going to see a ballet, wether by "force" or choice, I strongly suggest you read the story before going. Upon doing thusly, you might be able to understand what is going on on stage even better, and might just be a bit more interested at how they convey a story through the movement of their bodies.
Anyways, what was even more interesting was my attempt to get to Andrea's house before the ballet to pick her up. It's what my speech teacher would call a "miscommunication event". I wrote down the directions that she gave me just fine, however, we did relay what the other meant by "stop light". I thought the stop light she was referring to was the one on highway 75 right after the creek turnpike, she thought I was going to go to the stoplight that was after that one that was in glenpool. We ended up meeting at a gas station, at which point we realized what the confusion was. All-in-all, an enjoyable evening.
On my way back, it seems I forgot another of the main reasons I cam back to Tulsa yesterday, my clothes. Fortunatly, I have barely just enough to scrap by till Thursday, I might have to wear a pair of socks two times though. My brain and I are just so forgetful about certain things....
Time to create a four minute speech, yeppie.
TUMEO.
That's right, thanks to viewers like YOU, Yesterday's 2nd comment was the 100th for this site. I'm so overwhelmed with emotion, I'm not sure if I can finish this post.
Anyways. I wouldn't say I did great on they pyschology test, though I wouldn't say I did horrible either, so I'll just have to wait until she posts the grades this weekend to see what I got, because I have no idea really. I'll be heading for Tulsa tommorrow, hopefully the roads will be in good condition and such.
Back to the subject of Comments, for a brief second. My lovely sister, Jennifer, posted a comment that she was happy that there was finally a "non-boring entry". At least I post entries at all, and not once every 50 years, so ha!
In other news, my neck hurts, it's really tight towards the top, and it's annoying, because whenever I stretch my neck back, it feels like I'm getting a pinch from the inside, so of course I'm not stretching my neck backwards because of that, but it's still a little tight and annoying, plus I think I left my little massager at home, I'll have to look for it here in a second.
That's all for now.
TUMEO.
Well, today is Thursday, which WOULD noramlly mean I'd be driving to Tulsa to work. However, I have a test today in psychology at 5:30pm, which would mean I wouldn't be in town until around 8pm for work, that added to the fact that by the time I'd be driving back the roads would be covered in ice as caused my boss to say that I need not worry about coming in to work tonight. So I get a Thursday off, which I guess is nice, not getting the money isn't as nice, but still.
I will be coming into town (that being Tulsa) on either Friday night or Saturday, as I will be going to see the ballet Giselle with Andrea. The last ballet I saw was the Nutcracker, one at least almost everyone is familiar with. Wonder if I'll like it or not.
Unfortunatly, I suppose I might should study this "psychology", as this test is more on the history of, rather than the concepts of. ::sigh::
TUMEO.
Yes children, it's snowing again.
I woke up this morning, did some website reading, then got dressed and was wondering if it was actually cold or not outside, so I went to go open my window, pulled aside the curtain and saw snow on the ground, and then saw that it was still infact snowing and figured I didn't need to open the window to see if it was cold. It's still snowing now after my class too. Fortunatly it's not actually "cold", not much wind, so just flakes falling slowly to the ground.
I, unlike Erik, made it to all my classes today, though I will admit, I only have to walk, not drive, to them. Got an A on my quiz/test in Financial Management class, a quiz that I walked into oblivous to the fact that it was going to be there. In fact, I got more than an A, I got a 100%.
If you look to the last entry, you'll see my awesome Tiawanesse-Thialand-Alaskian-Texan-African(hehe, inside joke)-CANADIAN friend, Jay (link will be up shortly, doesn't exist at time of this post, but within 30 mintues), posted a comment... it was posted in Chinese though, well, chinese in american letters, but apparently it says "you wanna learn chinese??? i can teach you".
Well, that's all for now.
TUMEO.
It's not close to midnight, and I'm updating, it's amazing, or something. Not much going on today, I'm thinking of actually taking a nap, mmmMMM, naps are so nice!
It's always interesting to run into people with another language that know English. In Final Fantasy XI I enjoy talking to Japanese people. It's so amazing when they can type out so much, and then they say "Sorry for my English, it is bad." I'm always like, no no, it's excellent, I wish I knew half as much Japanese as you know English. Too few Americans ever bother to learn a foreign language, fortunatly everyone else in the world seems to try and learn English, ::sigh:: I wish I could learn foreign languages a little better, it seems like my mind can't fully grasp it or something, but yet, at the same time... I can... sort of. When I was taking spanish in High School, I could get on Yahoo! Chat (back in the day, oh yeah!) and I would type to people in Spanish, and it was cool, I guess I was better at the reading and writing, and had more trouble with the speaking and understanding the spoken. Well, anyways... yeah, moving on.
Hmmm, not sure what to move on to.... It's Tina's birthday, so yeppie!! Happy Birthday and all that. Maybe I'll get that webwork that I meant to do 2 months ago done today... MAYBE.
TUMEO.
Starting this with 30 minutes until the day is over, heh, I'm good at procrastination aren't I? Tommorrow I hope to do some relaxation, only one class, so that should be easy.
Tommorrow is also Tina's birthday, so here's an early happy birthday, since tommorrow is less than an hour away. She'll be turning 20, so no longer a teenager, yeppie, weeding out all the teenies from the group finally.
Well, i'm tired, so that's all. Bye.
TUMEO.
I almost missed another day, but I didn't, so hahaha. Yeah, I'm so exhausted right now, but that comes from only sleeping for 2 hours I guess. I've had a nap already, and missed doing a bunch of webwork. I'll do it tommorrow after my classes. Feeling awful lazy again. Oh well.
Got to drive back to Stillwater through rain, that's always a joy. Suppose to be snowing in the next couple of days, including Thursday, which would be very not cool. If the snow is bad, I might not drive to Tulsa, though I doubt it will be too bad. Be bad if I get stuck half-way inbetween though.
Alright, sleep catch up time.
TUMEO.
