Tuesday started out as any other, for me. Getting up on dawn because I
can't sleep in, checking a few webcomic sites before getting ready to
go to Job Training (this crap thing the welfare agency in this country
makes you do if you work under 20 hours a week. I work 18.).
I happen to check my bank balance. My tax return had come in.
$1,300.00. Woohoo!
Then I got to Job Training, someone there mentioned a good IT job in the
paper. Yea, yeah, I say, like there's IT jobs in this town. There was,
I give the guy a ring, turns out it's HelpDesk at a large mining
company, he really liked the sound of me, I'm exactly the sort of
person they want, and noone else had applied so far. Woohoo!
To celebrate my good day so far, lunch was four beers ($2 each, it was
Cheap Tuesday) and five games of pool with some random. He handed me my
arse on a platter, I then handed it back =]
On the way home, I just happen to bump into a girl I like. Just out of the
blue. She's awesome! She's a really h4wt punk-chick geek with a
passion for oldskool gaming (I know 2 people in my entire town who would be
able to beat her at Quake 1, and she kicks arse at pretty much every game
on the Atari).
I ask her out, she says yes!
Walking on sunshine, I ride home. As I get home, I notice a package had
come in the mail. It turned out to be the thing I bought off ebay a few
weeks ago, it had finally come!
I get home, two of my flatmates in the lounge, doing nothing as usual (not
that I have anything wrong that, power to 'em). I relate to them my
awesome day, and then they suggest getting riteously drunk to celebrate!
"Brilliant!", I say, and we head on down to the nearest liquor
store.
Between us, we buy $250 worth of spirits, liqueur, beer and pre-mix drinks,
most of which gets drunk that night.
To top off this most perfect of days, we were undercharged $40 when we
bought that, only paying $210.
In the words of the main dude from Office Space: "Fuckin' A."
Completely unrelated pic of a wyrm I did, back in my early
fantasy/scifi-obsessed highschool years, just because you deserve a
picture.
Oh, and RavensClaw is
whinging, bible-bashing troll that thinks a hell of a lot (which is good),
but STOPS thinking when he thinks he knows the answers (which is bad).
IMHO.

thanks, but as i said, that drawing was done years ago. this
here is the most recent drawing i've done that is online, and
even that as a good year ago, at least. thi
s is Trizzle's photoshop of it, godsbless that man.
All real, I assure you. Things tend to happen to me in bunches.
For instance, about 6-7 weeks ago, I lost my job, my driver's
license, a 200gb HDD, and a really good friend.
As I said, bunches.
also sounds like a kick ass day, things like this happen to me but usually
are followed by sucky days where everything goes wrong. the important thing
is to enjoy the good days for every ounce you can squeeze out of them, and
it sounds like you did.
a congratulations on this quality journal entry and a karma point next time
i get one
Damn good day.
