Last of the Summer Whine

Jason Tandro · Tue Aug 31, 2010 5:40 am

In an hour and a half I get off my job at the hotel. And for the first time in two months I won't be going straight to another job right after it. I'm so glad I earned all that extra money but I am going to appreciate the sleep now that it's done even more.

Anyways, with today being the last day of the summer (in rudimentary "go by the calendar and ignore that the last day of summer is officially the 22nd of September" way) are there any achievements or noteworthy things you would like to share about your summer experiences?

we had an extremely miserable winter here on the other side of the globe. i guess surviving can be the crowning achievement.

First vacation in years, got a new roommate, AND I got a new girlfriend! All in all a worthwhile summer.

My only really noteworthy achievement during this summer - heck, during the last 3 YEARS lol

- has been getting the job that I'll be starting at 10am tomorrow, on the first day of Autumn. ^_^

(again, judging by the calendar months instead of by the Autumnal equinox)

Best achievement in the summer is that I have learned the self-defense moves from Self-Defense class. Another best moments are my father finally visited for my birthday and spend good times at aquarium and bowling. Oh yea... I got my chance with seeing real komodo dragons at aquarium.
Worst parts: No swimming. I have a community swimming pool but it IS dirty as a sewer! As I typing now, the pool is being cleaning... in late summer? The community should use new management.

Everytime I read one of those I heard the obligitory Xbox "Bleep-boop" achievement sound...

Uhm... well, at work I've received more recognition for the things I've been doing in the last five months than I ever have in the last six years...

I got a new apartment with me and my brother.

Uhm, I discovered how to get half off Pizza Hut, and sometimes, free.

I finished all nine seasons and two X Files films in about two months.

Yeah, I know. My life is pretty sad.

Hey just paid that douchebag from the Private Board today. Wasn't taking any chances, for obvious reasons. So I took him to a public bank wrote up a very detailed Bill of Sale, had it notarized and I paid him with a money order to which I hold the receipt.

When he dropped off the other computer in the deal, I was out and my sister claimed it for me. He bitched to her complaining that I was making things "too complicated". To which she (god bless her) said: "Well I can't really blame him."
