And the dragon comes in the NiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggh--

You know you're tired when both you and your girlfriend sleep for nearly 11 hours. My tenure with Staples has ended, and I got a decent sendoff--because I put in my 2 weeks notice, stayed with it, and there were no problems, I am eligible for rehire should the need arise and they've got a position open. But they milked me for all I was worth in the final two weeks, ending my time with an 8-day stretch of work which left me screaming for sleep...and my body felt it, especially when you're running on reserves just to have sex.

But now I've got 3 days of rest before going back to the Photo Lab the day after Christmas, starting it off with a 12-9 shift.

The plumage don't enter into it. 'E's dead.

So, nearly 2 weeks of signups for the Female Gamer Character Battle contest have come and gone. Still taking signups. As of today, I've sent out 21 brackets to the following:

I still get the sinking feeling that the rest of you are going to send them in at 11:59:59 PM, January 14th. Because THAT'S HOW YOU ARE.

Ahh, well. All right, loafing continuing.
