Ugh, Some People

I get to work and find that the lot where the Kerry rally was held still had the fence surrounding it and some other equipment in it, (like I said some people) causing us in move everything to the front of another lot. But besides that it was a slow and boring day.

John Kerry, Cometh

Well, John Kerry came to the Dome today and since security was so tight, (ha, ha, that's what they want you to think) the other three events: Great American RV Sale, Sports/coin collectors convention and Louiefest were all but shut down. So I got to spend eight hours (hell yeah, can you say overtime) guarding the press/VIP parking lot with a couple of the special service agents. I would have to say the funniest part of the day was watching the Kerry volunteers act like a bunch of teenager girl groupies every time any political person came in the lot. (Sheesh, they are just regular people)

The Not So Fast But Still Furious

Did the usually stuff when I got to work and then heading up to the RV lot and was surprised when the guard pulled up in one of the RV show's electric cart and said that I was able to use it for the night, weather he was lying or not I used it anyway. The cart made patrolling the lot faster and easier. Around 3 a.m. as I was patrolling the lot, I heard some cars honking on the freeway next to the lot only to see that a car was going the wrong way. (Damn, talk about being a good example for not drinking and driving.) It was pretty quiet for the rest of my shift except for the rain.

Overnight Guard For The RV Show, Take II

Posted by Xyiko | | Posted on 11:00:00 AM

Got to work around 11:30 pm, talked to the 24 hour guard a little bit then headed outside. It seems Mr. Confused finally figured out how to get to the lot and still no shed (it doesn't show up either, so don't expect any guess appearances in any up coming posts). The night wasn't all that bad, it didn't rain and it wasn't cold. I decided to grab a chair from one of the lower lots and read a newspaper in between when I was patrolling the lot.

The Land Of The Lost

I got up around 5 pm, made something to eat and started to get ready for work. ( Oh boy!) Around 8, I got a call from the 24 hour security guard at the Dome asking if I could come in early. Apparently the guy who was suppose to come in, got confused and went to Meydenbauer. (go fig) I got there about 9, pick up my work stuff and headed out, when I get up to the lot I'm shocked to see that there is no shed to protect me from the cold and rain. So for most the night I played hide and go seek with the rain. (yeah it won)



One down, three to go.

Sleep, Who Needs Sleep, I Do

I went with my friend to her job interview at 3 in the morning (WTF is up with that) over at a top secret package warehouse (nah it was just FedEx, but by the security you would swear it was a military base). Got back to her place about 6 am, I crashed on the floor until about 10 am. I left there about 1:30 and came home, watched some TV until about 10 pm and then hopped on the computer. I am totally freaking tired but since I have to work four straight overnights starting tomorrow night ( I’m not about to go to sleep and screw up my internal clock now).



I will try to make a post here and there when I can, although I promise nothing because my schedule for about the next three weeks is :



4 overnights, 2 days off, 3 day shifts, 3 overnights, 2 days off, 1 overnight, 1 day off (My Birthday), 1 overnight, 2 days off and finally 3 day shifts. (I doubt my sleep patterns will ever go back to normal after this.)

While I was on what the RE_INVIGORATE crew (you know who you are) would call a "Next Blog Trip" (referring to using the Blogger Navbar's next blog button to randomly travel from one site to the next.) I came across a kick-ass site called Questionable Content, which has a really great comic strip. You should definitely check it out.

Blogger's New Navbar

Posted by Xyiko | | Posted on 11:28:00 PM

So, I brought up my blog and at the top I see this bar going across the top and I'm like WTF? Logged into Blogger and found out the bar is their new Navbar which comes in 4 different colors and has a few other good features ( the next blog button can be really interesting ). I also found out that it appears on all freely-hosted Blog*Spot blogs and can't be deleted and can only be disabled for users that publish via FTP ( though I did find a way to stop it from appearing, if you want to know leave a way for me to contact you in the comment section ). But for the most part I think it is a good addition from blogger.

Edit: My method for making the Blogger Navbar disappear has only been tested on the Blogger provided templates.


How Old Is Your Inner Child?

My inner child is sixteen years old today

My inner child is sixteen years old!



Life's not fair! It's never been fair, but while

adults might just accept that, I know

something's gotta change. And it's gonna

change, just as soon as I become an adult and

get some power of my own.

Got up around 10 and went to the Dome and picked up my paycheck and got my times for the next two weeks (Woo-Hoo! A week and a half of overnight shifts guarding the Great American RV Sale, Guess its better then no work at all.) I had lunch with a couple friends and then had to go and run a couple of errands. I got home and watched The Screen Savers on G4techtv (first of all, can we please come up with a better name for a TV channel and second I can't wait for the new TSS from L.A. to air on September 7th. Yes, I know I sound like a total geek). I than had dinner and got on the computer and here I am writing this entry in my blog.

Woo-hoo, Time to Play

So Friday, our little group of people (if you don't know who, then you should read some past posts) went out and had some drinks and play some pool for a little while. We then went back to Charles and Gerri's place and played video games until about 7 in the morning, then we watched Malibu's Most Wanted funny movie (of course I had been up for over 24 hours so maybe it wasn't) and played some more video games. I got home around 11 am and crashed, I got up about 4 and went to Tacoma Boys and picked up some food for dinner. Went back over to Chuck's and hang out until about 2 am, came home and went to bed, and I don't plan on doing anything today.

Scary Google Hack

Posted by Xyiko | | Posted on 7:51:00 PM

I just learned from visiting KevinRose.com that it seems Google has added number span searching to their search engine. You are now able search for something not just by name but price range, but if used the wrong way any person could use the engine to search a span of numbers to find credit card numbers. (Kevin has an example on his site). Just thought everyone should know, and that you could be just one google search away from ID theft. (Scary thought, huh?)
