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.

life goes on, part 5.

Today I came back from a week of vacation in Connecticut.  There was nothing to do, I needed time to recuperate from work and it worked in that quiet little town environment.  Well, all good things seem to end too soon, so I am back on my working week schedule starting this Monday, on Columbus Day.  I think it was overall a growing experience, even though it doesn't seem as such at this particular time.  I have a falafel sandwich in my refrigerator, which is also stuffed with Coca-Cola cans, so I am set for a beautiful breakfast tomorrow morning.

hello, still living

Not much of great news other than the fact that I am still living, breathing, having appetite, enjoy quiet weekend day in my apartment with closed doors and hot shower.

We had federal inspection at my place of work.
There was more work to be done than ever, especially documentation.
Also, it was quite stressful.  I had to stay over at work until late evening most of the time.  This high-pace job related stuff got me somewhat tired and I found a cheap location for vacation, close by, can't afford anything better because I am fixing my ever-collapsing teeth and dental bills eat up all my savings.  I think I will feel mentally/spiritually better after my vacation.  I am leaving for a week on October 5th.

Lately, WoT is having low fps count, can't play World of Tanks as much as I used, as much as I want.  Saw last Riddick movie: very good!  Got a copy of latest Wolverine (X-Men): will watch it when I feel like it. Spending lots of time on DOD sites, ordered a bunch of stuff I don't really need because they were on big sale.    Gotta pick up laundry...and remember that this week is the last dental work for the month (I hope).

wasting time because there is not much I can do with it otherwise

I've getting extra silver coins at WoT due to improvements on my Russian KV-1 and German JagdPzIV tanks and because American M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo gun seems to have more penetration power after last upgrade.  I had a dream that I was working today and woke up before 7am even though it's weekend.  After first few minutes after waking up I realized that I am still "calling" back the person who called me in a dream to my workplace using my hand as a phone.  I caught myself trying to explain to him via my palm (as phone speaker I suppose) that he got the wrong organization and needs to contact another one. I think I need a vacation, but it's not possible in the next few months.  I am off to play WoT.  I completely stopped playing Godfather Five Families and Settlers Online a week ago and deleted the shortcuts from my computer - got bored.  Instead I am entertaining myself between WoT battles with Rise of Heroes at http://rohgame.com.
