Drive
Hey there, kids.
It's been two days of night shift, and it's not bad. Not bad at all.
I get tired a lot, though. But that comes with staying up, and working, until seven in the morning. But I get by...As soon as I get home, I sleep. Sleep most of the sunlight away. I get a decent amount of sleep...Crawl out of bed mid-afternoon...
And glorious day, I actually have time to play some video games! So I'm back in gaming mode with Breath of Fire 3, belonging to Rick. I freakin' love that game. I'd be writing a bit more, but my notebook's still over at Rick's house. I suppose I'll pick it up sometime soonish. I've been writing some other stuff, in other places, but those are things that you must never read. At least not until I get a few more things up there, so it's not just one story. But even then, viewer discretion is advised.
I don't understand the concept of taxes. Well, I do. But I don't like it. I mean, what's the point in paying money to the government when we all know it's going to collapse in the end?
We, as a society, aren't yet ready to admit that we're going to collapse. Because hey, we've come a hell of a lot farther than most of the societies that have come and gone before us. We've spanned the entire globe, created all sorts of technologies, and have had generations of crappy television. But eventually it's all going to fade away, and we'll just be another chapter in another history book in a far off future.
This isn't random. My dad owes a bunch of money to the government. Yeah...
Personally, I'd rather spend my money in preparation for the collapse of society. Guns and ammo. Foods that won't expire. A strange device that converts urine into fruity alcoholic beverages. And a wardrobe that would look proper in a post-apocalyptic society. 'cause hey, you gotta look the part if you want to rule a group of street bandits.
All that, plus a bunker. A big-ass bunker. Maybe some battle robots. All EMP-proof, of course, as well as anything else technological in the bunker. If anything is going to launch the end of our world, it's a big-ass electromagnetic pulse. Fry the technology we're so dependent on, and what the hell do we do then?
Also board games. I'll need to stockpile boardgames. What else am I gonna do all day? Scrabble, with other survivors. Or maybe with a robot. But then the robot would cheat, have a dictionary in its head. Bastard.
But anyways...
I want to get paid. I want to get paid so badly. I mean, I had the four-hundred from before I got the job, but it's slowly disappearing...A hundred of it was lent to me by Rick, and I had to give him forty back for the video card he wants, and my parents continue to borrow it so they can get by until payday (end of the week, so meh). When I get paid, though...Wii. I want it more than I want to get with any number of females at my work. And some of them are fine.
That's sad. So sad. I want video games more than I want women...But in my defense, those video games kick ass. Yeah...
Night shift has less hotties than day shift. I count two. One that works on a nearby line. And another that works somewhere I don't even know. I don't even know that one's name...I just call her "cute glasses girl". It works.
But yeah...Still on the same station. They were supposed to switch us a few times, but we still haven't. I figure "meh". I'm damn good at this station now. Plus it's loud enough that I can sing to myself all shift if I want to. Mostly Jonathan Coulton. I love him so...
So...Yes. That about sums it up. Work, Breath of Fire 3, sleep.
That's ma life.
Nate out.
Until next time,
One day, I will work up the courage to talk to a woman. OR DIE TRYING.
