sad state of WoT...

Worked, played WoT at low fps - thus no achievements, just lowered my stats.  Bought KV-2, so far worthless.  Drinking caffeinated beverage and coca leaves tea, because I don't want to sleep, but don't want to sit groggy watching the walls.  My budget is close to its lowest point due to close second vacation and excessive purchasing on Deal A Day sites - mostly crap, but sort of useful crap.   I ate lots of buckwheet kasha today, boiled and fried.  I still have some left for tomorrow. Also, fried several Tofu Pups after cutting them in small pieces - sort of tasty.  Almost finished another case of Coca Cola - just bought it this week, drink too much of it.  No news is good news.

drinking coca-cola

It appears that WoT now works at normal speed for me only on Saturdays until 5 or 6pm, so I played it most of the day, from early morning, and got enough coins to buy SU-100.
I remembered today that when I was 4 years old I was sure that I want to be a cosmonaut and when adults were asking me who do I want to be, I would always think "what a stupid question", but never say it.  I was 100% certain that anyone in their right mind would want to be a cosmonaut.
I don't recall exact age when I stoped thinking that way, but I think it took me a while...but definitely before puberty, I think.  Ever since that age I don't recall telling people that their questions are stupid.  Looking back, I think I always had my own opinion about everything, but somehow had the wizdom not to talk about it.  Most of the time people think that you agree with them or share their opinion if you are not verbalizing anything otherwise.  Looking back, I think it was very lucky of me to think that way, as I was able to have more friends.

working for vacation

I had a really nice, quiet dream tonight.  Usually I am dreaming of work or looking for food, this time I had a dream about vacation and plenty of tasty stuff on the table.
Next week could be quite hectic, another inspection.
Cigarettes seem to run out faster than before...just like cash....Started buying a lot of useless crap on Deal of a Day sites: helps to improve mood during workday when I get some cheap crap in a nice packaging.
Yesterday got flu  vaccine...didn't feel very excellent half of the day, doubt this weakness and pathetic mood will go away in less than a week...I guess I am slightly sick from vaccine shot. Unless it has something to do with the weather changes. It's getting cold here.  Drank more caffeinated beverages today than yesterday and day before that...still sluggish. Booked a vacation for second week of December.  I hope I will be able to enjoy it.

right side headache

World of Tanks wasn't working properly for a month.  I was involved in a long discussion with technical support team, one of the solutions worked, but only for 24 hours, still don't know why my fps ratio went down significantly and ms delay went up as drastically.  No change of settings is helping, so I not playing it much now.  I played World of Warplanes, but it's just not the same experience, although it's fun.
It was decided not to purchase the 1-bedroom apt due to it being 1) not 1-bedroom apt, but a studio and 2) too much money for a studio.  Parents are determined to secure my life with the housing purchase sooner or later.  Their generosity with downpayment will get me into life-long debt to mortgage bank, but I suppose I have to be grateful for concern and support.  There is a good news this week: 4 cartons of good cigarettes are now on my table.
Seems to be always busy at work lately, maybe I'm just tired.  My previous vacation wasn't as inspiring as I expected...maybe I am just getting old(er)..and head baggage presses too hard on the brains...or I am very low on energy.  I will try to take vacation next month, in the second part of December.  Somewhere cold, where everyone speaks a foreign language, somewhere where there are really cheap vacation packages...
Tomorrow is another working day, I have to get some sleep.
