Wednesday Night Open Thread: Testing… Testing… 1-2-3…

by Alxala

My new computer case had arrived the other day, and I got my main system up and running with a fresh install of Windows 10 with all my stuff including game backups (except for all my save games for all my Nintendo DS emulator games which are now lost) still on my computer. My father even installed the latest Office and some other things like Discord, Shotcut and Norton.

So far everything is running good and stable… for now.

Flaming Hot Summer Afternoon Open Thread

by Alxala

It was a hot, sunny day today. I have been blowing up stuff in TF2 on a random Double Cross server with bots, and I found some more extra junk as item drops and decided to smelt them into tokens. So now I have 1 class token and 4 slot tokens, and I’m thinking about turning three of the slot tokens into reclaimed metal then save the 4th slot token along with my only class token for later.

After I got done playing TF2, I enjoyed my sub sandwiches from a local restaurant for dinner tonight since I already made my work lunch last night. So we’ll see how this goes during my work days.

Something Something Late Night Open Thread

I got a phone call from work yesterday that they wanted me to come in to do some freight, facing and stocking. So far I’ve done a pretty good job working on freight with the food stockroom freight crew, and for doing so I got even more money added to my paycheck of this week. Now I can spend some money to buy myself technical upgrades for my computer if I wanted to, and even some stuff from the Valve store once my PayPal account is all set up.

But in the meantime, I will now go off in a world of Dreamland. Nugeyes!

Monday Morning Open Thread

by Alxala

Sorry for not posting once again yesterday because I ran into an insecure connection error every time I try to go to any of my Slackers site which have the wrong time and date. Either way, I was taking an accidental nap during my weekend when suddenly I got called in from work this week from Sunday through Thursday. So now I got about 40 hours of work time this week, which means I’ll have a huge amount of money in the paycheck when I get it on Thursday this week. Oh, and I also spent five bucks on a whole watermelon for my sis after arriving at a local store where I’m currently working. 🙂

And now for my next trick, I will now enter the world of Dreamland as I fall asleep. Feel free to post comments in this open thread while I get some beautiful sleep. 🙂

Playing a Game of Musical Hard Drives

by Alxala

Tonight was very quiet than the last couple nights ago due to our neighbors being very loud and rudely obnoxious. Anyways, I’ve been spending some time looking for things at the Valve store the other day, and I was thinking about getting a new gaming mousepad for myself once my PayPal account is set up and ready for spending, and I’ll also plan on buying a couple TF2 t-shirts from the Valve store for another time.

So now that all the things have already been copied over to the new hard drives, tomorrow my dad and I will be spending some time tearing apart my computer to swap out my old hard drives and replace them with new ones so that I can have a big amount of free space to put Steam games on and other things. That means I’ll be temporarily away from my headquarters for a while once everything goes smooth with my new hard drives on my computer.

Monday Monday Monday Night Open Thread

by Alxala

There’s nothing much for me to blog about tonight because I was too tired to do so. I have finally managed to reach 300 species of Pokémon in Pokémon Diamond on my Nintendo DS emulator, and now I just need to hope for about 265 species owned in this game so I that I can move on to Pokémon Pearl in hopes of trying to beat that.

So we’ll see how my life goes after I survive two days of my work week which is Tuesday and Wednesday. Open Thread.

Tuesday Night Open Thread

by Alxala

I’ve been doing some vacuuming upstairs in the apparel department at a local store for the last couple nights since the White Glove inspection is due yesterday, I even did the store manager’s office and the director’s office. So far I’ve gotten every single section taken care of for those two nights, now I just need to get ready to go to work so I can do my regular cleaning.

So, g’night everyone… until I meet again.
