9:43 pm	Whos THAT?! Howdy Loyal readers! It is the oft absent Patch here! Ya, i know, shocking Eh? A real live post from PATCH. Alert the media. Go on, Alert. I'm waiting. What? They dont care? Fucking Liberal Media Hacks. Oh. Wait. There was a point. I start again. HI Folks! Was that any good? I'm so out of practice at this... ok, enough with the sad attempts at humor, on to the point. This isnt really much of an update, and I know, I suck, I'm still not reading. I *DO* miss each and everyone of you. Murnk- I hear you mentioned me in yer thanksgiving post.. I luff you too ya goof. (or whatever it is that you said...) So, heres what i just HAD to share. It came from my loving lady, from, of all godawful places, an email she got from her company. BUT, i felt it was an important little truism to pass on. So here it is. "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" While i may not necessarily agree with the specifics, (chocolate and a martini? EWw lousy combo..) i definately agree with the Spirit. L'Chaim as it were. Carpe Diem! uhm.. yea. that. Happy Holidays Folks! And Fuck the holidays, be simply marvelous to eachother EVERYDAY. Have a GREAT *TUESDAY* Just cause its TUESDAY. Love ya all like inmates, (i miss ya scott) -Patch PS: Thank you all for being so wonderful to my most excellent secretary. No, it ISNT nightrythm.

10:53 pm	brief update Last weekend Patch and Xana went to lifeofreilly's Animated Character party as The Incredibles, well two of them anyhow. As you can see from yon user pic, they were adorable. Additionally, I think I may have talked Patch into updating via phone post now and then, since he lacks the time to do so by other methods. This would certainly save me some work. -Patch's Secretary (8 Comments |Comment on this)

10:44 pm	I hear the world wants to hear more from Patch's secretary. Well, here I am! Patch is doing well. As most of you know, he is living the house known as "the neighbor of the beast" with sushicaddy, executivegoth, and his beautiful girlfriend, nightrythm, with whom he is very happy. He has a job he hates in the morning and loves in the afternoon from which he cannot check LJ. His social schedule is overflowing and he rather likes it that way. He tended bar at the evil party at his house last Saturday and made the drinks strong. Even non-alcoholic drinks had alcohol! I also understand that he likes watching the ladies do pilates on Mondays and Wednesdays at his house. I for one think he should join in! Good night world. -Patch's secretary (13 Comments |Comment on this)

12:02 pm	Greetings One an All. Hello out there, you Silly folks who decided to friend the journal of a guy who never posts. I looked today, and noticed that there are quite a number of new faces on the list of people who have me listed as a friend. In fact, it is that fact which has prompted this post. I just wanted to say Hi. So, uhm, Hi. Thanks fer being curious, or caring or whatever it was that made you add me. I have a feeling i should know most of you, in one way or another, but i'm afraid that some of your LJ names are unfamilliar to me. I find myself curious to know who my "Audience" is. So, i charge you thusly: I have made the first effort, I said Hi, and welcomed you all to this corner of the net i consider mine. Please respond! Let me know yer out there! Let me know who you are! Why yer here! all that good crap. :) If you are someone who i dont actually know, let me know how ya got here! I'm dying to hear from you! so to kype a line from murnkay, "Operators are expiring while you hesitate." Current Mood: working (42 Comments |Comment on this)

4:36 pm	Meme... These points should be screamed from the top of EVERY hill, mountain, and valley. Please feel free to steal these, and distribute them everywhere you see fit. If you disagree with the idea of Gay marriage, answer these questions. i DARE you. 1. If the purpose of marriage is procreation, why should infertile couples be allowed to marry? 2. Many opponents of gay marriage say that such a thing will weaken the institution of marriage. How, specifically, does a gay couple's marriage negatively affect a straight couple's marriage? 3. Which is more harmful to the "institution of marriage:" a) Gay Marriage or b) Divorce? Why is the latter legal, and should it be? 4. Prior to 1967, many states in the South (and some elsewhere) had laws prohibiting inter-racial marriage, called Anti-Miscegenation laws. Proponents of these laws used a similar "defense of the institution of marriage" argument. How do you reconcile the fact that you are using the same arguments as people whom history has painted as close-minded racists and bigots? 5. In the 1954, the Supreme Court struck down the doctrine of "separate but equal" in the case of Brown v. the Board of Education. In that case, the court decided that separate but equal schools were unconstitutional. If a so-called civil union was instituted nationally, creating an institution "separate but equal" to marriage, how would such an institution be considered constitutional where no other such civil institutions are?

8:58 am	And So the Saga Continues.... Well, My car is now in the shop, as of Yesterday. It would have waited probably until Friday (my day off) however, Tuesday night, on my way to hangout at the bar and shoot some darts, my Radiator chose to explode. Let me tell you, having a deluge of superheated anti-freeze/coolant stuff spray across the top of your engine makes a spectaular steam/smoke cloud! Nuthin like just plain water. That just steams.. *sigh* So, luckily i was looking for a parking space, so i cranked the heater on, found a parking spot, and trudged into the bar to forget my troubles. Stumbled out of the bar into the cool night air. Luckily the radiator only cracked itself, and only at the very top of the radiator, just under the cap. Thusly, unless i start to overheat and build up too much pressure, the radiator works basically as normal. So, with no traffic and cool night air, i was able to limp the car back to Xana's house. The next morning (yesterday) I woke up early, had Xana follow me to my auto body shop, and dropped my car off. Luckily, Auto Body shops can do radiator replacement, as that is generally part of their job anyway! ALSO thankfully, my auto shop ROCKS, and they are going to pad their estimate on the insurance damage, and replace the radiator on the insurace dollar. W00t! Oh, and if the insurance company is reading this, JUST KIDDING! So, i am now once again, basically stuck at Xana's house, waking up early to drop her off at work and drive her truck to work, because my insurance company wont pay for a rental car, and I dont feel like trying to pry one out of the other guy's insurance company. *sigh* BTW, If any of you wonderful readers are in my area, i need to find a way to work on Sunday. Xana needs her truck, and I need to be at work by 3pm. Anyone feel like takin my sorry ass to work? heh. la. So yea, more later! (6 Comments |Comment on this)

10:26 pm	Latest News Well, OK, not aLL the latest news.. just a little. There will be more later, as it officially develops. Well, last thursday, Guess what happened to Little ol Me? Nope, not that. No, No, not that either. I got Hit again. crap Same fuckin place too. on the 210 westbound, right around that curve in Arcadia near huntington blvd. Thankfully it was not nearly as bad as last time. I didnt get slammed so hard i hit the person in front of me, there was no screeching of brakes, just the dipshit behind me fucked up. *sigh* Didnt i *JUST* get this fuckin thing fixed?!?! Well, i went to the insurance adjuster today, and rather than the 4 grand they estimared last time, this time the estimate was under 1000. However they purposely low-balled, they KNOW there is more damage that they cannot see yet. So i figure it'll be less that 1500 in the end. Yes, i'm crazy and going back to the same auto shop i went to last time. they DO do good work. This time i'm going to impress upon them that i want it done QUICKLY, and CORRECTLY the first time. There is an old saying, you can have it cheap, fast, or good. pick two. I WANT FAST AND GOOD. It's insurance, i dont care what it costs! :) So hopefully I will be dropping the car off with them (hmm soonish.. depends on scheduling, I have this annoying JOB thing in the way this time..) So i will keep you folks posted. Hey Murnk! Got any more of them 2HC bumper stickers? i think i might have just put my last one on the new bumper when i got the car back, i think i dont have one to replace this one. Or are they avail for purch off the site? Drop me a line or an IM or sumthin. Current Mood: aggravated Current Music: whirring fans (24 Comments |Comment on this)

5:44 pm	FUCK THEM IN THEIR FUCKING ASSES FUCK VERIZON So I have now been on hold, waiting for Verizon DSL Support to answer, for over an hour. I *AM* DSL Support, albeit for another ISP, yet i am acting as a representative of said ISP, who has a wholesale contract with Verizon! We are reselling Verizon service (basically but not really) and bringing them who KNOWS how many cutomers and how much income, and Yet, here i am HOLDING, WAITING for a representative to answer the fucking phone, so that i can have them run tests that should be available to my company to run our god-damn selves! And I've been WAITING for over an HOUR! What a collosal WASTE of time, Man-Hours and resources! I could have easily helped 4 customers in the time i have been sitting here with my thumb in my ass! (on the plus side, i am caught up reading my LJ friends, and have the time to make an update.) JEEZUS CHRIST. Well, i started holding with VZ at 4:48p. it is now 6:22p (i was supposed to go home at 5:30) and VZ has finally answered. FRACK. This is ridiculous! Geh. well, lets see if i can get this customer fixed. TaTa! Current Mood: annoyed Current Music: Verizon Hold Music (mix of Oldies and Christmas Music) (14 Comments |Comment on this)

5:58 pm	What D&D Character am I? hmm interesting take. Also, this quiz at first was pretty easy to answer as me, but it starts getting into game situations, and it is very hard not to naswer "in character" GaH! I Am A: Lawful Good GnomeFighter Bard Alignment: Lawful Good characters are the epitome of all that is just and good. They believe in order and governments that work for the benefit of all, and generally do not mind doing direct work to further their beliefs. Race: Gnomes are also short, like dwarves, but much skinnier. They have no beards, and are very inclined towards technology, although they have been known to dabble in magic, too. They tend to be fun-loving and fond of jokes and humor. Some gnomes live underground, and some live in cities and villages. They are very tolerant of other races, and are generally well-liked, though occasionally considered frivolous. Primary Class: Fighters are the warriors. They use weapons to accomplish their goals. This isn't to say that they aren't intelligent, but that they do, in fact, believe that violence is frequently the answer. Secondary Class: Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit. Deity: Gaerdal Ironhand is the Lawful Good gnomish god of vigilance and combat. He is also known as the Stern and the Shield of the Golden Hills. His followers work to defend the homes of the gnomish race, and practice the arts of war and train others to do the same. They are somewhat isolated from the generally fun-loving gnomes, because they take their duties very seriously. Their preferred weapon is the warhammer. Find out What D&D Character Are You?, courtesy ofNeppyMan (e-mail) i dont htink i ever would have pegged myself as a gnome.. but it DOES make sense if i think about it. I'm not quite dwarven... but not elven or sumthin at all.. Gnomish works really, cause i can be that annoying bastard.. heh. yea, all in all i think i likes it.. :) LA! (6 Comments |Comment on this)

11:17 am	ok, heres an update... Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a marvelous Thanksgiving. Mine was pretty groovy. Went to the 'rent's house on thurs, didnt feel the need to take my own life too strongly. So this is oficially the second "family function" I've taken "my dearest" to. Wow does that breed some odd situations. My family is upper middle class jewish. My Girlfriend comes from a more "working class" family background. She was also raised by civil rights activist-hippies. Definitely a much more "Liberal" background. I, while living in this upper-midddle class environment, tended to associate and identify more with the "working class" type peoples. This also makes me more of a liberal than a conservative. (mostly, i have some downright facist beiefs on a few subjects, but i have a low tolerance for stupid people (like this is a surpise to any of you)) Even growing up, my Father always claimed to be liberal, registered democrat etc.. etc.. Just recently, in the last couple years, i have started to become more politically aware. Before, I had always avoided politics because i knew it pissed me off, so i would ignore it, hoping it would go away, or get better. I now know the error of my ways. They Elected Dubya. cut back to Dinner, around the table are a collection of JAPs of all ages, male as well as female, and My Chicano girlfriend and I. It is times like those that i really realize the socio-economic demographic that my family inhabits. It Scares Me. My Step-Mother sounds like a rush-limbaugh caller. My Father and Step-Mother recently went on a cruise through the Panama Canal. Somehow they managed to find out that their cruise ship was paying 200k to the panama government to go through the canal. This led to comments such as "well, if they're charging so much money, and when we were there we saw 2 other cruise ships, and like 3 transport ships, you'd think they could atleast try to spruice the place up, make it look nice, i mean, it looks like an industrial complex!" geh. It *IS*! Oh, and my favorite comment of the evening, "the people we saw there, they were all so POOR! but they all seemed very happy to see us, everyone was smiling." in conjunction with the "those people" comments.. sigh. i hate "those people" comments. its dehumanizing. And then my love and i had the pleasure of sitting between my father and a friend of his, and so we got to sit and listen to them talk about politics. *sigh* what a whole lot of tounge biting THAT incurred. My father actually had the audacity to complain that 100k a year is not alot of money! Oh what I could do making HALF that much! Granted this comment was made in response to someone (at some other time, probably on TV) saying that people who make 100k or more a year should pay more taxes to help out the country, etc.. *shrug* All in all, Dinner was actually a bit of an eye opener. when its just me dealing with my family, i dont really notice so much, i know who they are, and i dont think about the things they say so much. When i have a guest there, i notice their oddball comments, and the way the things that they say might paint them in a poor light. my folks can really come off as bigoted! and Republican!!! EEK! All in All it wasnt too bad, got out of there, and went home, and had a nice relaxing evening. Friday was our "commune"'s annual "Day after thanksgiving SushiFest" get together. This went off marvelously. had a bunch of people over, got to hangout, Caddy came over and made sashimi and tempura and tonkatsu, and it was all of course, great. Wheeee!! and i think we watched movies, but i dont really remember? Geh! but the rest of my weekend was excellent and relaxing and nice! Yay! ok, this post has now taken me two days to write inbetween calls. i'm done with it. i'm posting it. blar!

9:54 pm	trying to stay current... So uhhm, Hi. Ya. i dont really have much to say, Life is Lifeish mostly. New job is Good. Paycheck is Better. :) its nice to not be in the red anymore. not much terribly exciting going on really, i'm contemplating purchasing a new CD Player for my car to replace the one that was stolen about a year ago... *sigh* it was a really bitchin CD player too. alas... But, i will shortly be able to afford a new bitchin CD player.. perhaps i will even install some sort of security device.... STUFF! i'm desperately hoping i dont burn out on tech support soon. i hate doing it, i hate getting additude from fuckwits who are calling me for HELP. thankfully i can keep reminding myself it is NOWHERE near as bad as it has been at other jobs (ie HELL err EMC). its like a mantra somedays. :) LA!

9:12 am	Wowzers... Uhhm, Hi and Stuff. Who are all of you? What are you doing here? Oh, Right, I'm the one who's been gone, you've all BEEN here. Sorry. I get confused. So, it's been nearly a year since i last posted, and I had forgotten how to do the nifty line command, and there was a bit to that effect in the last post (that didnt exist) but i have since re-figured out how to do it, so it is used. So there. Also, since it has been so long since my last post, i figured i'd give you folks (all two of you who care) a big ol ugly update type thing. i was freakin almost dont typing it too. lost it all. and re-created humor just never flys as well damnit. Geh. Wow. What a day. So, its now toward the End of my workday, rather than the beginning when i started this post. Yes, Workday. So here comes the update. When last i posted, I was working for eMerchant Club (read: HELL) I was layed-off in Late Feb. '03. I've been living off of savings, a cashed out 401k, and odd-jobs here and there, including the Northern California Ren Faire. (if you are reading this, and still dont know what a ren faire is, piss off.) It was really nice to be able to bum about, not worry about a schedule, and still make the bills! i suggest it every once in a while. its like an extended vacation, but the key is to still do enough to keep yourself busy, just mix it up enough to not be a routine. its nice. :) So Northern Faire just ended, (permanently infact) and the money was just running out, when this new job FELL on me. w00t! I've now been here for exactly one week. infact, i first interviewed exactly one week ago today. Yes, i was hired on the spot, and put to work that day. YAY ME! No, they're not that desperate, they actually are being picky in the hiring process, i passed their test with flying colors, and was able to talk shit right back at them when they told me that the place was a little irreverant. ;) basically they felt i would fit right in. So, I am now working for a DSL ISP. DSL Extreme to be exact. and i Like it alot! (today has been rough, but i'm still learning alot) Its actually Technical! I get to use my brain! And the users are not the lowest-most-imbecillic-infomercial-watching-slackjawed-fuckwit-neandertal-shitmug-asshat-sisterfucking-inbred-get-rich-quick-scheme-believing-bottom-feeders-of-the-universe! *dance/cheer/fanfare here* They're actually even semi-intelligent and plesant! It gives me warm fuzzies to think of this user-base compared to the one from HELL. ahhh.. it reminds me of my theme song even. Track 21 Here. If yer interested to know, ask me sometime, maybe i'll post the story of my themesong. So I was sitting here before work this morning, typing out the post that got lost, and this segway was much more relevant. I was here at 8 this morning. I dont start work until 9. This is due to the fact that I carpooled with my roomates. (Willow, Chico, and BoyA for those of you keeping score.) See they all Still work at HELL. HELL is right up the street from DSLE. its the same god-forsaken commute i used to do! the only problem is, the roomates need to be at work at 8, not 9. so i get to sit. This of course brings me to the REASON i need to carpool, and my next subject. My Car Lets take a little trip through the days of yester-year. Well, yester-month anyway. Flashback to (wow.. look at the colors! "hello old friend!" "Fuckin newbie just said 'Hello old friend!'") a Thursday, much like this one. well OK, maybe not just like this one. I wasnt working, the world wasnt on fire in Southern California. but i digress. (isnt this all one big digression?) ther ei go again, and again, crap. OK So, flashback to September 4th. (is anyone still reading this shit?) There i am, tooling along the 210 freeway into Pasadena, when traffic infront of me decides to stop. NOW. so of course, i slam on the brakes. and i make my stop. by the skin of my teeth. unfortunately, the moron behind me, didnt. Pull over, do the obligatory information swapping, thank (insert diety here) he had insurance, attempt to duct-tape my trunk closed so i can drive, and get back in my car to have an emotional break-down. fast forward through some anguish, I call my insurance and arrange to take my car in to an auto shop recommended by my step-mother. ("..they'll do a good job, and you wont have to pay the deductable...") i arrange to stay with my lovely girlfriend Xana (pron. shauna) who's house i was on my way to anyway. Auto shop is nearby anyway. next day, insurance adjuster. i point out all the details, including the fact that the drivers seat is twisted and broken. adjuster decides NOT to include the seat on the quote. i mention this to the auto shop when i drop off the car, and he says there will be a second adjustment, once they get the car apart, for additional damage, it will be added then. Heh. fast forward A MONTH, where i have basically been staying at Xana's, havent been home but once or twice, hopefully the roomates are feeding my cat, and i've still been working the faire, and mostly dropping Xana off at work and using her vehicle. The shop FINALLY calls me to tell me the car is done. (yes i have called them before, i have bugged them and gotten "tomorrow" for the last week and a half) I go to pick it up, and the FUCKING SEAT IS STILL BROKEN! i point this out. they ask if i can hang around, they'll take care of it. i, having fuck-all ELSE to do, agree. I sit and hangout with their dirty dogs for a couple hours. they bring the car back (they have an additional facility around the corner) and the seat is no longer twisted, but it does not sit up straight any longer. it is stuck at "lowride" as the most situpstraight setting. they assure me that that is as far as it is supposed to go, i need to fiddle with the other settings of the chair. i concede and drive away. later that night, after irrevokably determining that the chair is infact not the way it used to be, find that my headlights dont work. yay. the brights work tho, So i get to be THAT GUY. Well, i go back to the auto shop the next day, and tell them that shit still aint right. they attempt to fix the head lights, and seat, "it should only take a few minutes, can you wait?". I spend another few hours with their dogs. they are sweet dogs, and they are beginning to know me and like me, cause i pay attention to them. car comes back, i drive away. well, ONE headlight is fixed i find out that night. the other i have to get out and apply a technical jog to. even then, they are not of the same intensity. and the chair is still wrong. i call the shop. they will order new headlights, but it will take a day to get there. ok. fast forward again. new headlights. Hey They Work! good! now HOW ABOUT THE FUCKING SEAT?! need to call the adjuster again, and setup an appointment to come out, and approve a new seat. OK. call me when the adjuster is going to be there, and i will bring the car. Call me. (heh joke on me) a week later, i go down there and ask whats up? "oh we havent called the adjuster." (grin surpressing snarl) well CALL him. "well, how about monday next week? just for a couple days" OK. well the next day is when i got the job. so, i now have to figure out how i'm getting to work on monday, while at the same time, dropping off my car at the shop. well, i can carpool.. ya, that'll work. well, here it is, Thursday, and i still have not heard from the shop about my car, nor have i had the time to call them, cause i've been too busy with my new job! ARGH! well, atleast i have tomorrow off (i work sunday) so i can go kick the guys at the shop squah in the jimmysack! Well, i have now been off the clock for nearly an hour, my girlfriend has arrived and is standing over me waiting for me to finish this mother of all posts. So, now i must go. more another day! -Patch Current Mood: aggravated Current Music: no speakers on work machine yet. (10 Comments |Comment on this)

7:01 pm	Walkin on the Clouds. SO much to talk about, so little i actually want to say. Life's Strange Little Dichotomys. hmmm neat Band Name that, Strange Little Dichotomys. Life is incredibly good at the moment. Like, there arent any labels that high up on the meter for how good life is right now. I dont really forsee anything mucking it up real soon. In fact, all things told, things are on their way to getting BETTER. I dont know if i can handle that. My Life has never really GONE this well before. Its a very new feeling. I think i like it. I really dont know what to do with myself. I've always self-destructed long before getting to a "life-space" like this. And i think i've finally gotten over my self-destruction bug. I'm far too fond of being at a stable point. I hope i'm able to maintain it. So I'm going to Coachella again this year. Its a Music Festival out in the middle of the Palm Springs Desert. This will be the 3rd year of the festival, and my 3rd attendance. thats kinda weird for me in its own right. Here's the link, for anyone interested. Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival Its got a pretty good lineup. I'm really only going for a few key acts. If any of you have been around that long, you can look back, and read my post from last year. I went to see my Fav band (of all time!) The Orb, and their set was TOTALLY plagued by Tech Probs, and they got axed by Promotion cause they ran too long. Feh. Bastids. Its FREAKIN HOT out there in the Desert. Little to No shade. But, I go again. It'll be fun, I just need to remember not to wear Black. ;) I'm actually REALLY lookin forward to Coachella. This year its a 2 day event (like the first year, but not last year) and I was only gonna go to one, cause i couldnt rationalize the 150$ ticket price. Then my friend Bob, told me he was going. told me my Once Best Friend (now sadly not so best, but still good friend again(finally)) Lee was going, My Good Friend St. Jefe is going, and My Ex-Roomate (who hasnt talked to me since i moved out of that place, and last couple times hes been back in town, has concertedly avoided me, and talked shit about me) ElfBoy is comin in from Cincinatti to go! Now I'm sure yer curious as to why this is exciting. Well, He Called me a few days ago. Well, ok, actually he called one of the people i live with. But he ASKED to speak to me. And he, in his own way, basically apologized for his behavior. I was Stoked! I've missed the Boyo. He was good peeps. He got screwed up in drugs, and lousy head-space, but apparently Ohio has been really good for him. He made the gesture to bury the hatchet, and I'm gonna give him the Chance. Heh, Me, Boyo, Lee, Jefe, and Bob. If that aint a photo from My Living room back in the day, I dont know what is. All that is missing is GoldenEye 007 for the N64 to make the picture complete. *sigh* (singing) "Meemoriess..." or was that "Maaamaries.." Heh. I think i've already posted about my 1year with the company, and the raise/promotion. So there's That. And Faire comin up, thats always a good thing on the radar. And then, then there is Her. ;) You had to know it was coming, from the first paragraph. None of this other stuff, while being great an all, could possibly make someone float like that. :) She's great. She's this girl "I'ma Courtin'". Thats the Official statement at this point. :) No Titles, nuthin like that, I mean Hell, we only went on our "First Official Date" Last night. Granted we've know eachother, and been friends for some time now, (total time over 3 years?) but Hey. She's still tryin to get used to this whole "dating a GUY" thing. The Patch is Mighty. HAH. Or SUMthin! :) Guess it finally DOES payoff to be a nice guy? i hope so. I'm tired of bein the world's Best Friend. Yep, I'm THAT guy. I'd wax poetic about how incredible she makes me feel (an NO ya Pervs, not in a physical sense!) but i dun want ya'll to Vom on the keyboard while i spew mushy shit. ya want that, go sit in on a convo btwn The Muse and Nos. ;) I'll save it for another time. OOK! Its 7 now. Time fer me to get the HELL outta work, and go Visit "Her"... ;) Willow didnt come to work today, So i dont have to go home right away. :) Wheee!!! *le-sigh* Ciao Folks!
