I feel like you are both lacking understanding of what I'm doing.

---Woke up last night around 2:30 and proceeded to have a nose bleed.

- In both nostrils, which forced me to breath through my mouth too much, which irritated my throat.

- Splatterd blood on my pillow

- Took the case and covers off my pillow wash out the blood, and they were all nasty enough to warrant replacing.

++ My new pillow is extremely poofy~

+ Got some ridiculously discounted clothing at Kohl's while looking at pillows.

- Had to shovel out our outside garden area. 

- My shoulders are sore.

+ Mostly productive day.

-- Still have reviews to write.

+ Car repair bill was a couple hundred less than I was expecting.

- Decided to spend the rest on food.

+ I now have enough food in storage for the next 2 months (hopefully).

- Must be frugal and not spend any money on groceries for the next 2 months.

-- Have to study for a midterm this week, and 2 more right after spring break.

++ Spring break means I get to hang out with stars more (if available) and do all our usual devious deeds.

+ Made bet with co-worker yesterday that involves me A2ing (an audio position) a show on my own by the 25th

+++ The A2 let me do the show "on my own" while he sat in the other room today

++++++++ Surprised the hell out of the co-worker I made the bet with

 

I am competitive. I will win this bet.

+ My package I ordered off Amazon should ship today (Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster)

+++ I'm excited to play said game

- It's not here yet

--- It may be free shipping, and fastish (3-4 days shipping) but I wish it were faster

------ I am so fucking impatient

+ I have plenty of things to do until then.

Doesn't Amazon have guaranteed first day delivery for preorders? I got Skyrim the day of and I ordered it the day before it came out. I should get my copy today from Best Buy and they don't even give a shit.

[Stars]

They usually get pre-orders to you on day one, but occasionally it won't get shipped until that day for whatever reason.

They do for most packages, but I think you have to pay extra for it.

 

I ALWAYS get Super Saver shipping and don't use Prime (I think it's a rip off, I'd rather wait the extra day or two and NOT pay for the shipping) so my packages never arrive day of release. I always get mine like 2-3 days later, which really isn't a big deal.

[Monkeydog]

Prime is so not a rip off for all the stuff you get for it (books, deals, shows, movies, shipping), it's just how much you utilize it (basically, we don't just buy games with it, we buy necessitates).

 

But that's weird, because I feel like I didn't have Prime when I got Skyrim, but then again Amazon has been really stingy with shipping lately.

[legacyme3]

But I don't read books (aside from the occasional manga, but internet), or really use Amazon for anything but games. I have a streaming service already in Netflix, which gives me everything I want except the occasional anime (which is again, what the internet exists for). It might not be a rip off to you, but it's a total rip off to me, considering how little I use Amazon outside of the maybe once every two months purchase of a package. I order about 6 to 8 packages a year off Amazon. So the 99 dollar a year fee (which is what it's hiked up to for anyone without an .edu account or anyone who hasn't already locked in) makes no sense to me. I'd be paying like 11 dollars for shipping per package.

 

Either way, even if it wasn't a rip off, I'd still go the Super Saver Shipping route. Free shipping is better than paid shipping, even if it takes slightly longer.

 

It's not like I need the package today or tomorrow, or even three days from now. It could come in a week, and I'd be happy because I didn't waste money on shipping.

+ realized what I want to focus on

- realized it's a silly idea

+ realized it doesn't matter if it's a silly idea

- realized that in this case it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter to me

+ Is going to try anyway

---- going to take forever for the idea to be taken seriously, and to actually accomplish it.

[kspr]

what is it?

[legacyme3]

A running coach.

 

It makes the most sense to me. I know a lot about running, and I like doing it, but what I like more than running is cheering others on and helping people out (I discovered I only like helping people when it comes to running)

 

Fun story about the above. I volunteered for a big race last year. I joined my club at a water stop, and was basically there from 3 AM until past 5 PM manning the water stop (we're talking a REALLY huge race here). It shocked me how much I like helping runners, but hate helping everyone else. (I refuse to do volunteer work in other areas. Like I could volunteer at a soup kitchen, and be eligible for Food Stamps, but I rejected it because I'm not interested.)

--- You know you need to clean more often when your work table has junk mail from September buried under the piles of all the things.
