Yay, I Can Stay a Citizen!

Saw this over at my friend's site:



You Passed the US Citizenship Test



Congratulations - you got 9 out of 10 correct!

Could You Pass the US Citizenship Test?


Since they don't give you the correct answers, I put them in the extended (if you're curious).

Bono’s Pit Bar-B-Q

So, yesterday my boss gives everyone in the office these Bono's Bucks to be used at Bono's Pit Bar-B-Q restaurant. The only one in Denver is at Dry Creek & I-25. The problem was they were photocopies and cut really weird. We were all afraid to use them. Well, the opportunity to have free ribs overcame my doubt as to the vailidity of the documents, so I stopped and to get some grub on the way home from work. Fortunately, the certificates were legit. It was actually quite good. They had fried okra, which, amazingly enough, Marcus actually really likes. I still have another certificate, so I'll have to do that again sometime next week.

I’m Not Doing Squat Today

Man, I just do not feel like doing any work today...so I won't. It's kind of a shame that I had to drive 50 miles just to surf the Internet and iChat with Marcus, though. Really could've done this from home, y'know? I'm taking tomorrow off as my day to make up for overtime put in before deadline. Since we have Memorial Day off, it'll be a nice 4-day mini vacation.

I'm supposed to be working on the Filemaker database for this place, but I'm not in the mood. It's too nice of a day out.

I am catching up on my blog reading and found this comic over at Freakgirl:



It's totally summing up how I'm feeling about my creativity lately. I can't even motivate myself to do the Artist's Way right now. I'm being so self-destructive and I'm wallowing in self-pity and it's not cool.

I'm actually enjoying that Gaping Void site, though. He's got lots of good advice. I'll have to add that to my linklist.

Damned 225

So, I was just watching the television for the weather and traffic reports before I head off to work and there is an accident at I-225 and Yosemite. Great. As if that stretch isn't bad enough on a good day.

Where Is My New Job?

Why is it when I am not looking for a job, I see great listings on the job boards? The minute I start looking for something, they all disappear or are suddenly paying less than I'm making now. I'm growing increasingly frustrated. Please send me some good job-FINDING vibes, people! I'd be greatly appreciative!
