All moved in, but still no real internet.

[cmont]

Hey all, just want to say hey. It's been awhile since i've been on. Just moved into my new boston apartment and won't have real internet access until Friday or so (Thanx neighbors!). Just wanted to keep you guys updated and let you know that I didn't disappear. Classes started today (as did the drinking... *hiccup*) all is well though, no TV (forgot it in NY, but theres no cable till friday anyway). Went to the student center yesterday and got my tarot cards read (weird school = yes), and he pretty much told me that I didn't have to go to college to do what I want to do (strange huh? considering I was employed full time as a GD before I left). Then the palm reader told me I was going to be sucessful and start my own business and make tons of money, oh joy! Hope everyone is well and until I have a more reliable connection I wont be around much. Talk to you guys soon I hope! Back to the bottomless cup of Seagrams 7 & 7.

BOSTON?!

Well, at least now you're in Upstate NY.

[morea]

oh, and if you DO make that tons of money, I could sure use a loan. :D

[cmont]

Morea, although I hardly know thee. I would be more than inclined to help you financially if it was in my power. On a side note, wouldn't it be great if there was some sort of Graphic Design Union, that assisted in job placement, pricing issues, health care, unemployment, and training? Yea, that'd be a great idea. Seagrams, here I come! STOP YELLING I SAID IM COMING! :eek:

[morea]

LMAO! Go get em, cmont! Drink one for me, while you're at it. :D

[urstwile]

Hey Cmont, was wondering where you'd been. Hope things are going well and you're starting to settle in there in Boston. :)

[Red Kittie Kat]

Cmont!!! Welcome back darlin! Glad to hear you are safe and sound. Missed ya kiddo!!

come visit as often as you can. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v54/RedKittieKat/smilies/bighug.gif

[mac.FINN]

So there you are... I thought you got devoured by a great ball of string or something.

[colonel5]

not having real internet is better than paying for cable internet and having it not work but being too lazy too call because your neighbor has an open wireless network you can connect to.

[cmont]

LOL colonel! Mac, that did happen, horrible really! Too long of a story to tell but the short of it was I made a daring escape using nothing but an avocado and a knife made of bone. Kitty, will do! oppps class started be by later!

[cmont]

Thanx, Urst! Everything is slowly working out. Thanx all for the well wishes!

[Mynock]

I enjoyed the silence.

[cmont]

lol

You are so funny :D

[Samakimoto Graphics]

Cmont congrats on thew digs and life!

Don't worry, smile through it.

[cmont]

Thanx Sam! Finally got internet and cable, now all I need is a TV and an Air Conditioner! I only have a tiny window and my room is like in the middle of the building so the window faces into a little alley and all I can see is other peoples apartments, sigh, atleast I've got my health and i've been able to sleep! Now gotta figure out a balance between working GD and doing classes, and possibly getting a side job and paying attention to my GF. I wish there was an extra day in the week! How about we shorten each day by 3 hours, then we will have enough time to have an 8th day!!!

[mac.FINN]

Air conditioner? It's September. Summer's over bud. You missed it.

Have fun with the rest of that crap though :D wb slacker.

[Red Kittie Kat]

Great to hear you have internet now .... The rest will come in time .... but as Mac said ... you can save on the AC summers over ;)

Glad to have you back with us cmont http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v54/RedKittieKat/smilies/mwah1.gif

[cmont]

Ugh! you guys don't know what its like with only a 1 window, and no AC. It's like 78 degrees outside and theres only a big hole surrounded by building outside of my window. That means all the air is stagnant and doesnt travel well, no wind = hot air in my room. Im not going to pay for an AC though, just steal one from my mom's place so it's all good, that way I don't need to worry in the spring as I have enough closet space to store it away in.... ok no more pinot tonight, end ramble... see you guys tommorow

[Red Kittie Kat]

Ahh well that makes sense .... I can imagine its pretty uncomfortable :(

When I was living in New York, I often used to run my air conditioner in my bedroom in the winter, because the room was really stuffy, facing out onto an airshaft, and I was near the top floor of the building, as well as sleeping in a loft bed close to the ceiling, so it'd get pretty stuffy and hot. So I can relate to the need for an a/c outside of summer, Cmont.

[cmont]

Finally someone who understands me! hehe thanx. It does get uncomfortable and unless its like 30 degrees outside I can't see it being anything but uncomfortable. Oh well I have to deal until i get home.

[urstwile]

Sorry, I'm late with this, but I got you a housewarming present:

[morea]

Hang in there, cmont! Long live pinot, eh?

[cmont]

Long live pinot, seagrams 7, and anything else with Alchohol... Thanx for the awesome gift Urstwile! I know just where to put it ::: places box of string in pocket ::: I'll be needing these later, MUAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

[Red Kittie Kat]

Uh oh ..... I can only imagine what he has in mind for that string :D

[mac.FINN]

:shifty eyes:

what's going on here?

[reuber1]

Our college had a tarot card reader too. Mine was less than endearing. I drew probably the worst possible cards possible.

[mac.FINN]

OH no...the dreaded redundancy card!

[Jackimalyn]

hey cmont, welcome back! Hope boston is good to you

[Satchel]

OH no...the dreaded redundancy card!

haha... good mac, I was thinking something along the same lines!

[cmont]

lol... thanx jax! Its being good so far!

[Jimeda Fork]

2 very important things to do now that you're in Boston.

Get on Route 1 and head to Saugus (it's not far at all) and go to:
1. Prince Pizza
2. The Hilltop Steak House - you won't regret it, I promise.

[urstwile]

Hmm, I think cmont might have trouble with the pizza place, he can't eat stuff with flour.

[cmont]

Hehe, Urstwile, you are too cool for remembering that! Your awesome! And Jim, I will definitely check out the steak house though! Thanx for the reqs! Now all I need to do is find a bar with a dart board that is decently close to me and then im all set to go!

[mac.FINN]

Hey cmont, you're 90 posts away from 1,000!

I'll give you some string if you can get there today. C'mon... I did it :D

[cmont]

lol.. I'll see what I can do. I've got a brochure due today that Im waiting for pictures for and im sitting in class right now so I've got some time...

[mac.FINN]

[Red Kittie Kat]

He must have gone back to work :( ....... that darn 4 letter word is always causing trouble!! ;)

[cmont]

Went to Lunch, close kittie. I also just finished homework for my Intro to Digital Tools class (Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash). About the 3rd photoshop class I've taken, but this one is an introductory one, atleast I'll get some more knowledge in Illy and I'll learn Flash out of it. end rant...

Anyway, I don't think i'll pop 1k today, gotta do this brochure for a client, do the dishes, and laundry. Maybe tommorow... I have a feeling things aren't going to slow down on my end anytime soon. Always moving.

[mac.FINN]

okay okay... aim for 925 at least. Sheesh - homework? jobwork? Where are your priorities man?!

[cmont]

LOL aparently in the wrong place... where'd i put my string? ::: checks pocket ::: brb...

[Red Kittie Kat]

That's ok cmont darlin..... we will still be right here waiting to help when you have the time.... you will get there in no time ;)

[cmont]

Thanx Kat... I figured I'd try and get it to 925 atleast today! As per macs suggestion ofcourse!

[morea]

lol, go cmont!

[Red Kittie Kat]

Well you made it to 925 ..... you should be there by the weekend ;)
