Stump's journal: Tag

So, I thought since I've been hanging around here for a little while I might just go ahead and use this here journal. I was hanging out with the girl today running errands I really rather would not have been on and going slightly crazy from the sudden onset and then offset of wintertime around here. Winter just makes me really depressed and screws with my sleep pattern something awful, hence having woke up at 8pm Mon. and still not asleep. A nice side effect is that it also makes me slightly loopy.

Stump's journal: meep you people and dreams

So I haven't put an entry in for a while. I've been living with "the girl" for over a year now. I love her but she drives me nuts. There's a big difference in maturaity if not age (five year age difference, 13 year maturity). Last night though I ahd this dream, I blame you for all for it. Normally I don't remember my dreams and I'm sure you all talking about yours inspired mine. I drempt I ran into a girl from Wisconsin that I was in love with in NYCity and she never knew I was in love with her despite the time we spent together and my willing to toss everything and fly from Dallas to Wisconsin to see her before moving back to CT. She had chopped her long hair that I loved, but it wa short, almost meep chic, and dyed blonde, but I still recognized and lusted after her for all that she was when I saw her. WHat kils me is I lost touch with her anfd can't find anything about her on google. I never told her how I really felt (it's been over 7 years) and would like to correct that. If there are any Swarmers in the UP that can research a name let me know. Especially in the Peshtigo area.

Stump's journal: There will be no projectile vomiting allowed

I'll state this from the start, I like food. I don't care what it is and half the time don't want to know, put a plate in front of me and tell me to eat and I'll try it. I ate meep during a year in Korea that to this day I don't know what it was, but it tasted good and didn't make me sick ( other than a nasty case of the meeps for three months, but that could have been the beer over there). I've eaten off of little food stands in meepholes in Mexico and not had it bother me, my stomach is beyond cast iron.

Stump's journal: Bought a new PC

So I purchased a new system at a show on Sunday and today I finally install an OS on it. Supposedly bought a 3Ghz P4 with an 80gig drive, Audigy2 sound card and a Sony 8x DVD+RW drive all on a very nice ASUS P4P800S board. I popped in my old Radeon 9700Pro card and the 80gig drive from my old system. Installed the software they gave me for the DVD burner to burn the old drive since it's making this awful tick/click/whirr noise and don't want to lose anymore than I already did from the other drive in the old system crashing. Start actually looking at things and the new drive is only reporting 74.5gig, okay buffer space maybe? Not too concerned with this. What bugs me though is the 2.8Ghz reported for the processor, fukers, now I either have to drive to Plainview, NY or the show Sat. in Meriden to get this fixed. I'll slog on though and just burn my data for now. meeping drive isn't registering as a DVD burner though. It's listed as a Sony DWU-18A in device manager and according to Google it's a DVD+/- burner. Sony don't list it on their site though, and everyone else lists it as OEM only. The software they gave me with it is NTI. Debating if I should call and make an appointment to have them change the processor and try to get something free or just show up with the box at the show and start to cause a scene until they give me something really good for free and fix the problem. meep people, should have known something wasn't right when she tried to get another twenty bucks out of me for a case that would match the bezel on the DVD drive.

Stump's journal: Health related

Do any of you imminent intelligentsia know anything related to leukemia and it's treatment? Specifically related to persons with other underlying health problems such as diabetes, enlarged/congestive heart failure. I'm also looking for an article on a new treatment that I'm not sure if I saw it in print, Discovery Health (or similar t.v.), or on the net. The treatment was basically an implantable alternative to chemo. I'd ask that you try to refrain from the usual nigering in this thread at least for a couple of days and appreciate any links you can provide.

Stump's journal: The passing of a man

Dad came home from the hospital this past Tues. after almost 4 weeks in, and several scares for myself and others in the family. I got the first as I went to visit him the evening of his first leukemia treatment only to see the Drs. and nurses rushing into his room with carts full of equiptment as I rounded the corner from the elevator. He had an adverse reaction and they intubated him and brought him to ICU, where he spent most of his stay. His mental condition after coming off the ventilator was off to say the least, very manicy and varying degrees of coherency. We took turns staying with him through the nights and days so he wouldn't be alone, his fight was ours. Sometimes he would sing about absolutely nothing others he would cry, he talked about having drinks a lot (strange for a man we never knew to drink) coming out with keepers like "It ain't no fun without the rum."; often after a shot of Mean (our new term for morphine) he would become belligerent, telling my brothers "Get the meep out! I don't want any meeps in my room, I'll blow your meeps off! Don't think I won't."

Stump's journal: The bosses daughter

I'm working again finally (I don't really consider the three months at the last restaurant work since I barely got paid to go in). I've found myself in a bit of a conundrum though. I really enjoy the place and the people have been really good to me through the whole ordeal with my Dad. The owner knocked a ton off of our bereavement luncheon (basically charged me cost after only two weeks there). The problem lies in his daughter, she bears an extreme facial resemblance to Giada DiLaurentiss from Food Networks "Every Day Italian". I am in lust for Giada and this girl is her spitting image with a healthier body/proportions (Giada's head is a little too big for her weight/frame). If the chance ever came up not only is there the chance that I'd get fired shortly thereafter, but I might as well and eventually will be married to the girl I live with now. Should I meep the bosses daughter just to semi-fulfill a celebrity fantasy? meep, but I'd love to.
