Well, after I wrote last night's entry, my mom tells me to have my room cleaned up completely or she goes and cleans it for me (a.k.a. toss out everything of importance I've ever earned). We spend a good two or so hours emptying a closet of packing boxes, crushing them down, and taking them to the trash. Well, there goes all my packing material. It seemed I was finally going to get time to work on timing, then my mom throws that right into the crapper. -_-
A clean room (which isn't that bad, aside from the fact that I'm currently using the bed as a table) or a paycheck. Which do you think I really want to do? -_-
Saturday afternoon, I left to pick up my new set of glasses. These frames are fun - they were very expensive, but it's fun to bend them to whatever shape and they'll go right back to how they were - except for the leg joints and the nosepieces, as you need to adjust those for a good fit. Also got a new pair of sunglasses, so I don't need to use the monstrosities I had before. Every glasses purchase I make is a size smaller than the previous set - these are the smallest lenses I've ever had. Look a hell of a lot better, too, I think. And these actually stay still if I'm moving my head =P
When I picked them up, the person there adjusted them for me. I had a chat with him about general things while he was going about this. I had been really annoyed with my mom as she insisted on bringing up the room -again- before I left, but talking to him helped out a little. I was still pretty much annoyed for the entire day, though.
Went to work, which was amazingly empty for a Saturday. The bulk of business had already passed, with the Harry Potter novels sold out hours before I got there. Calvin doesn't like Dan. Apparently, I'm the only one that can actually stand him - and he does get annoying. I can see why he doesn't have his own store, though.
Well, today (Sunday), I managed to hold off the warpath (but I have to watch her in case she decides to try to raid my possessions), but I end up spending most of today in the bathroom. -_- So, I do get another set of extras done (out of four), and I'm going to be working on getting the rest done... then I have two more 45 min eps to go.
Now, the extras are only 14 minutes apiece, but they take a LOT longer to do than normal dialogue, simply because of the incredibly poor quality of the translation. I am two weeks late now, even though I've been working every spare moment - but because of the unneccessarily time-consuming nature of these extras, and the complete lack of free time, I've missed yet another deadline. I'm not the only one, but I was actually on schedule back in May - which REALLY annoys me. And, I'm not likely to get a check before I leave for AX. Meaning I'll have to run and deposit it -right away- when I get home.
And I still have to do the damned cleaning. Not just my room, either. Have to clean the adjacent guest room and the basement, too. WITHOUT tossing valuables and irreplaceables in the trash can like she would.
I -really- don't need all this crap right now.
Site update: Archives link in navigation bar is gone - it's not needed since there's a complete list of links to the right. Yes, the navigation bar will eventually be on every page. Forums are still scheduled to get the axe whenever I get around to figuring out how to delete a MySQL database. Also, managed to get the centering on the navigation bar and the calendar to work properly in Firebird.
