Re: What made your day? KAI
Oh ok. The way you said "even if it costs you more" came off to me as "you need to go green no matter how much the cost! Screw the kids college fund!" lol. Speaking of going green I also bought a larger system with a larger offset in anticipation of my next car being an electric vehicle so we will need to draw more power.

Re: What made your day? KAI
Excellent, that's good it went well! I remember how weird it was going back to my job last summer, I felt so out of place. So many new faces too, I might as well have been starting over. But now I'm a supervisor, so it goes to show people will appreciate solid hard work even if you've been out of the loop for some time.CrimsonBloodX wrote: ↑Tue Jul 06, 2021 7:09 am It's going well. My first day going back was a little confusing because it's been so long, but I got the hang of it now, for the most part. I did have a guy accidentally splash me and a few costumers with coke near the end of my shift, so there's that.
It's been really busy, saw a lot of my fellow co-workers that I haven't seen in a long time, made the company a lot of money. It's good to be back. I'll probably have enough money to finally buy a Sega Saturn, Godzilla vs. Kong 4K and pre-order the Daimajin Trilogy hopefully by the end of next week.
Let us know if you get that Sega Saturn!
I went to Chicago and visited Sue back in 2011, I believe. I don't know if she's still the biggest T-Rex we've discovered, but it was certainly awe-inspiring being in her presence.gottatalktothefake wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 11:54 am Just a few recent good things:

Going to see the Sue the T. rex traveling exhibit for the weekend after my birthday. First time I’ve traveled at all since February, even if it’s just for a day I’m excited.

My family now has two kittens. They were given to us by my grandmother on my mom's side. She knew how devastated my mom was after our dog and cat died some time ago. So, she gave us the kittens and we named them Romeo and Juliet.

Random acts of impatience-driven kindness. The self-checkouts at work are super slow tonight, and I guess the guy behind me in line didn't feel like waiting for me to pay. He jumped ahead of me in line and then paid for my lunch!

Sometimes I loiter and jaywalk to counterbalance the nerd factor of reading books without pictures.
Tomorrow I'll have to try and do both at once.

Re: What made your day? KAI
Just got accepted into another private screening event. No idea what for, but apparently Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson are in the film. Plus $100 for each of us.
Target audience are held in two separate showings, ages 18-39 for Room A and 40-64 for Room B.
Added in 23 minutes 51 seconds:
Oh also, I had to do a "tech-check" to confirm my position in the showing. The tech guy I spoke too was also a huge Godzilla fan, he looked and sounded pleasantly surprised when I told him I loved Godzilla vs Kong. He was surprised I knew how many films were in the franchise and what not.
I wonder why they specified 18-64 years of age, it has to be a big release?

Re: What made your day? KAI
This happened yesterday.
After a long day at work, I headed back to my locker room to change back into my clothes. While I was there, I came across a guy wearing the same Godzilla shirt that my mom bought me on Father's Day, and we had a little chat about Godzilla, half of it was about Godzilla: Singular Point. He didn't like the show that much and actually prefers the Godzilla Earth Trilogy over Singular Point.
The fact that I came across another Godzilla fan at my work really made me happy.

I will hopefully start my new job next week after a year of unemployment. My last job was very stressful my last year there which caused to have lots of anxiety and suicidal thoughts which I attempted in November of 2019 which quite sad since my first 2 years were great.

Re: What made your day? KAI
I finally own a Sega Saturn, and I'm so goddamn proud of it.
That's another console to check off the list.
Also, Megadimension Neptunia VII arrived at my house yesterday and Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance arrived today. I've been wanting to own both of these games ever since their release.
Last but not least, my sister made a surprise visit today. I was not expecting to see her in the living room as I walked in the house after a day of work.
