Another post about work

So, an opportunity has crossed my path. The opportunity to move on with my career, and get out of a kitchen.

I am super happy that i might have the chance to leave the superbly stressful environment that is a kitchen in a restaurant. That kind of environment surely does not breed creativity, as many of you can see. My blog posts are short, full of pictures, and usually about something stupid. It is as if my mind plays itself as a children's book.

My mind does play itself as a children's book. Just lots of pictures with a few words in between.

  

So, in other news. I went to goodwill the other day with the lady, and found a helluva deal. Sitting there in the electronics case was The Sims 2. For $4.99. Lightly used. I jumped at the deal, and since I'm going to be an architect in the next few years, i figured it wouldn't help but to practice with a game that originated as an architects program to figure out traffic patterns in home design.

I have become addicted. building houses without extravagance, bare minimum structures for families of 1, 2, 2 with a child, 3 with 1 pair having a child. Using the programming to separate them into duplexes, multilevel homes, single level ranch style houses... I love it.

If you do not have The Sims 2. Buy Steal it.

Minecraft project update

Okay, nerdy time. Minecraft Project update.

Ive dug down another 10 or 12 layers, the strata are more varied now with larger deposits of gravel and dirt. Coal and iron are abundant, and I have seen quite a bit of gold start to emerge.

The lighting seemed a bit wonky, so I went overboard.

Holy Bejeebus, its getting huge.

Its rather impressive if you take into account that this is completely Vanilla, as in no cheating. So much Coal went into making the torches.

Making projects like this makes me miss my old minecraft houses.

The Na'vi would be jealous.

Frank Lloyd Wright inspired.

The awesome pyramid i blew up.

And the awesome Zombie skin i made.

I have no idea how to resize them, but meh... enjoy the views.
I figured out how to resize them, and added some more... Enjoy

Holy Mother of everything holy Batman!

People read my blog!

I logged on a week ago and had 2 followers. This morning I checked, and for some idiotic reason... ELEVEN!

>mfw 11 followers.

I guess that means i should give some more meaty posts. *snicker* Meaty Posts. Now my nickname for my downstairs.

Dr. Jeffery Leonard MeatyPost DDS.

Why my dude junk is dentist, I dont know.

Anyways...

I had a dream last night. A dream i was gonna surprise my girlfriend by cutting my hair myself.

I grabbed the nearest knife, which happened to be a packing knife and proceeded to give myself a *razor cut*. Apparently box cutters arent the best at giving haircuts, because i shaved a bit of my head. Which is pretty precise, considering the implement used.

At this point i decided it would be best to wear a hat around her from now on, but my friends in the dream egged me on to just shave it off... So i grabbed the box cutter again, and filled my scalp with shaving cream. Then I woke up.

Thankfully.

With my full head of hair.

Which is glorious.

Yeah buddy.

I love my girlfriend. She is totally awesome. We have spent the last 2 months together, talking every day. We honestly havent run out of things to talk about. She makes me laugh every day. Stuff lately has been pretty crazy, getting ready to go back to college. Just got off a 49 hour week due to a couple lazy asses that have decided that a full time job only needs a part time commitment.

Come.

To.

WORK.

Im fucking exhausted.

Kitty.

MY kitten is so getting fixed.

Kitten periods are wayyyyyyy more annoying than people periods.

All my cat has done is Meow.

All. The. Time.

For like 3 days straight.

no, i will not have cat sex with you.

Seriously.

Im taking your ovaries away.

Soon.

Work work work.

So, for the next couple of days i might drop off the radar due to work. I work two doubles back to back, and will be spending the rest of my time sleeping. It is all money i need though, so I am not complaining. Well, a little bit. First off, I honestly do not get paid enough for the amount of work I have to do, or the responsibilities that I have. Secondly... well.... there is no secondly. Raise time.

Just sayin.

I need to sleep.

goodnight.

Minecraft

There is a little something called Minecraft. It is by far my favorite game. It poses unlimited creativity, and is completely open source.

Basically, you start out on a deserted land. You spawn with no tools, weapons, armor, or instructions. You punch trees, gain wood. Then you make your crafting bench, and make tools and numerous other things in order to survive. During the day, you are safe, but as soon as the crimson sunset ends.... you better hide, or fight.

Here are a couple of my completed projects that were promptly deleted due to my lack of being able to keep any of them handy. lol

That, my friends is what happens when one world crashes, and loads another world on top of it. The seam posed an awesome challenge architecturally, so i pounced on it and created what you see here.

The three decks have 3 or 4 rooms assigned to each area near it... twas actually pretty snazzy... i had recessed torch lighting.

THAT monstrosity, is the hotel. Designed on graph paper in the middle of a box of wine.

each window corresponds to a room. the back of it had a large outdoor rec area including an infinity pool that butted up against the ocean. If you dont know what infinity pool is... look it up. its awesome.

My latest project is to hollow out a HUGE underground area, similar to a pyramid. This is as far as I have progressed.

only 40 more layers. yowch.

Im planning on an underground city, complete with lights, grass, trees, and roads.

visit it.

get addicted.
