Arrr! Matey!!



My pirate name is:


Red Sam Rackham



Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Frosty

From Wendy's

While I was a poor unemployed degenerate I was (obviously) forced to give up eating out.

I had forgotten the sublime chocolatey pleasure of the Wendy's Frosty desert drink. Now I get them a couple times a week.

I get one on my way into work (either by itself or with a Spicy Chicken Sandwich) the ride lets it melt a little, so by the time I am ready to partake it is partially liquified. The spoon is fine, and I do use it, but taking a long slooow drink of still chilled chocolate is mana from heaven. Espesially now that summer has officially begun, the cooling effect of the Frosty along with the perfection that is chocolate fills me with indescribable[sic] bliss...

You should try one.

It all finally shakes out

I forgot how much effort goes into living a real life.

During my six+ months of unemployment I got used to sitting on my duff all day (and all night) screwing around on the internet or watching TV. It is convenient to surf for job oportunities but reinforces a lazy attitude about scheduling...

Now that I am once again employed, I find myself with too few hours in the day. And this is only a part time job, imagine if I were trying to live around a real career!

The good news is that I am now beginning to get back into the swing of things, and manage my time better. No more pointless internet surfing (or at least not as much) ; )

Of course I am still supposedly looking for that 'career' job, but just now I feel there is enough on my plate. I never was one for thinking about the future.


Maybe I should think about that?
