So I went and saw The Matrix Reloaded tonight. Holy cow, it's amazing. I can't really tell you much more than that it's amazing, cuz I'll have to see it a few more times before the depth in the movie starts to sink in. But I can tell you that it's really deep; there's a lot of philosophy in it, and if you're into that kind of stuff you'll get a lot out of it. Of course, if you just want a good action/sci-fi flick, it's still pretty good. I don't think many people knew it was coming out on the 14th, but they had limited showing today. Usually I'm not one of the types to try and see a movie before everyone else, but this time it was definitely worth it.
ok, I'm not sure what else to tell you. I'm still working 6 days a week. They tried to call me in on my one day off this week, but I figured 6 shifts a week is enough for me. And it seems starting work at noon is just a bit too early for me. Seems I have trouble getting enough sleep. Of course a big part of that is my fault, but then again there's so much I need to do with my time. Going to movies, watching my favourite tv shows, wasting time on the computer can really eat up a lot of time, so I I can't waste too much of it sleeping. Anyways, that's that.
Oh ya, I should tell you the saga of the computer monitor. I told some of you already that my monitor died on me awhile ago. That's part of why I haven't blogged in awhile, cuz I hate having to use other people's computers. Anyways the store I bought it from replaced it for me, cuz it was still under warranty, and Rocko was nice enough to drive it home for me. So I set it up, turned on my computer. The first thing I did when i turned it on was lower the resolution, cuz the guy at the store told me that having it at 1280 by... whatever it was was what killed it in the first place. So it was at the higher resolution for less than a minute while I waited for the computer to completely boot up before I changed it. then I did stuff for about half an hour, then I had to restart cuz I'd downloaded a windows update. But when i restarted, the monitor wouldn't turn back on!!! Crappy crappy. Now I'm pretty sure there wasn't anything I could've done about that. But I was supremely annoyed. Anyways, I took it back to the store, and although monitor-fixer guy was gone for the week, the other guy there seemed pretty sure he'd fix it when he got back. So here I am stuck using other people's computers for an indefinite amount of time. It sucks so much. I don't have the chat programs I like using (I like using Trillian, a program that integrates all the other Instant messengers) and I can't play any of my games on any other computers, and I can't use the computer just whenever I feel like it, or while I'm watching tv, which is what I like to do. Yes I know I'm a spoiled little brat, but hey that's the way I am. Deal with it.
So what have I been doing all this time while I've been deprived of technology? You'd think I'd return back to my earlier, more intellectual pursuits, the ones that made me examine the world around me, ponder the big questions, and do what little I could to make the world a better place. Actually though, I've been watching a whole heck of a lot of tv. Most of it is a steaming pile of crap, and it's made all the more difficult by not having a tv guide on the internet so I can find stuff I'd be interested in watching. So pray, or do whatever else you do to make stuff happen, that I get my monitor back mighty quick.
That's all for now. thanks for reading, eh.
