So I'm back to work this morning, and boy does it suck. I arrived at 7:20. It's now 8:24 and co-worker still is not here. SIGH. Responsible adult? What's that?

Starving. I wish I had stopped for breakfast, but I was worried I'd be late if I did. Stupid me, thinking idiot co-worker might actually be here ontime to notice!

I stayed up a little late last night, but since I couldn't sleep it didn't really matter. Watched a Naruto ep (I'm like 5 behind) and ... well. I liked it, but there's way, way, way too much flashback in the eps now. I bet more than half the ep was spent in flashback! (Yay to not have to draw new animation, people!) But still, loving the storyline, what little new there is.

After Naruto it was nearly bedtime, but I spotted a new Bleach ep! The Keep group just released one a day or two ago, so I hadn't expected #26 yet! I snagged it and it downloaded fast, so I watched it before bed. Too much fighting, too little character development. But I suppose there will be lots of fighting in the series, so. And man, does it amuse me when they keep commenting on the size of each other's swords! :P

FFXI: Yesterday was blah. Boring. I spent most/much of the day trying to fish to break rods. Every time I fish my hatred for the "new" fishing system grows. (And my hands/arms still hurt! A day later!) And the best part? I got only .1 woodworking skillup and 0 fishing skillups from spending the whole day doing it! Blah.

I keep thinking I need to level a new job in the game. I need something to spend more time on. But there's really no job I want to play much... And how much farming can one do? I'm totally out of bolts to sell, but I hate making bolts and currently have more money than I need, so why force myself to do it? I'm not feeling burnt out on the game, just lacking in goals.

Very unhappy to be back at work. Tired, hungry, grumpy. Stupid co-worker, this is all your fault!

Questage!

There's always quests to do. :3 I still need to do the Aspir quest, currently. x_X If I can find a white mage and black mage to go with me to get some Test Answers. (and think, if you haven't done the quest yet and bought the scroll, you can get it now and sell it. X3)

Yeah, I could do that. I think I did the aspir one though... (I seem to recall buying the test answers at the AH.)

Thanks for the idea!

Ha ha ha! I could! I don't actually mind the job that much, but leveling (especially low level leveling) is much like bolt making: Just do the same thing over and over and over and over again. Not too exciting! But I do still have my DRG armor and weapon, so maybe!

Depends how you level. The normal grind is boring as hell, but being silly with friends helps a lot. :3 I haven't had a better Dunes party than the day Jaide and I went out and duo-ed with WAR and BRD. X3 It was so much fun~

I wish they would move a little faster in the Naruto anime. I'm keeping up with the manga, which is quite a bit ahead, so the anime only makes me impatient. I'm dying for you to catch up to this certain point though, because I'm curious what you'll think about it. =3

Hee! Now I'm even more curious to see what's going to happen next! I should catch up with the subbing groups shortly, then will be moving at their speed! :) How soon is that point coming?

No, that's the problem. See, I have no idea when the anime will catch up to that point in the manga, because apparently they just started an created-only-for-anime arc right now, which is probably a few episodes after where you're at. I think they're worried about overtaking the manga storyline. I've only watched the first episode of the new arc, so I have no clue if it'll be good or if it'll be like some of the awful fillers in the past. Meanwhile, there's all this good stuff going on in the manga that I'm dying for them to get to in the anime. *impatient!*

Bah! For-anime-only stuff worries me. Lots. I suppose they're concerned the same thing will happen to them as did to PoT...

*is impatient with you!*

I can't help but think that work would be marginally less painful for you if you didn't do things like go in early for free. You don't have to be irresponsible like your coworkers, but you could at least just do the 8-5 grind. I think I'd hate any job where I was regularly working nearly an hour longer than I had to. :P

Well, it's not actually for free. I leave how much ever early I arrive. I don't know if I'm allowed to do that, but no one has told me not to yet! If I were able to set my own hours, I'd work earlier without hesitation.

It's 11:30 now and co worker is still not here. Maybe he's out sick or something...
