It's July...

If you're wondering why you usually end up seeing a map of the world on the webcam, it's because the camera gets repositioned when my brother gets on that computer. (The webcam is still attached to Gateway, when Spare is the computer I primarily use at the moment. This is also why when the camera is positioned properly and I'm at the computer, you get to see the back of my head.)

Of course, I'm not sure if people are even watching the webcam anymore. And, if I move Spare to another room as I eventually plan to, I don't know if I'm going to move the existing webcam, make it a double-webcam page (I'm still not sure if it's really a good idea to put a webcam in my bedroom), or take the webcam page down entirely.

But anyways, enough of that...

I went to Kevyn's workplace to talk to his boss about the job he was offering. He basically talked to me a little bit about what my future goals were and such, which is what any good employer would ask. He also gave a demo of the job, which was basically, well, packing a box. The methods of packing are a bit different though, in which they don't involve packing inserts, but rather cutting custom form-fitting packages out of empty boxes. I ended up giving it a shot myself, and managed to pull it off, albeit slowly and with some help. I guess I didn't do -too- bad (though I would disagree), but I was offered the job anyways. So, I'll be there starting July 19, packing boxes.

And to think a job like that still pays more than selling DVDs at Suncoast. Heck, I might make more than some of the floor managers there now when I start this job.

The only questions left are how much time I really need to take off during Otakon and the week after. Being a smaller company and working out of their own home, they don't exactly have a fleet of employees on standby to replace anyone taking time off, so I need to find a way to keep the time I'll be away to a minimum. Most likely, the plans will revolve around sending Jascii and Aya sightseeing or something. >.>

I haven't decided what to do about tomorrow and Saturday yet. My family is going up for a brief visit to NJ. This doesn't interfere with July 4th plans at Chris's house, but I'm not sure if I really want to go. Plus, the Break is having their thing on Saturday and I won't be able to go, even though I would be in the same state. I'm not sure what else I would do, either...

Hi, I just wanted to say that your website is awesome! And the webcam is strangely addictive at 1.10 in the morning (must ... wait ... for ... refresh)

The site is more or less a hack of the default MT templates, so I have little to do with the bulk of the design. I don't really see how the webcam is that interesting to watch, either... it's not like there are any cute girls on it or anything, aside from that calendar to my left. ^^;

Thanks for the comments, though.

What's the calender from?

The calendar hanging on my wall is the Mermaid Melody Pichi-Pichi Pitch 2004 wall calendar.
