Busy Day

I haven’t really written here in a while. I might link to something or post a photograph, but it’s been a while for actual writing. I don’t think I even posted about getting newsstand lead position. Anyways, today was an exciting day at work. We had a very, very good night from a store standpoint. I expected that to be bad for me personally, but it was pretty exciting. I also enjoy being treated like I matter by the “higher ups,” which I have been lately. It’s a nice place to work. It’s also interesting to socialize with a large group of people who all know each other. It’s almost like high school or the dorms. I’ve been used to having disjoint groups of friends – not a “group.”
Christmas is almost here! I’m not seeing family Christmas Eve like I usually do because I work that day. It’ll be nice to go home and relax rather than feel the stress though. On Christmas day I’ll go to my mom’s. I already got my gift from them – money, which went straight to bills. You know, I owe $35k? At my current rate of pay, I’d have to work over 150 days straight (and I’m not calculating overtime here), 24 hours per day to make that much money.
I’ve been feeling pensive lately. I’m not really sure what about. Or rather, the ideas aren’t fully formed, and I wouldn’t want to talk about them in an open environment like a blog. Still, I suppose I wanted to share the fact that I don’t want to share!
So! Back on track, even though I clearly was never on a track at all. I’m not a damn train. Work was exciting. In just a couple days I’ll be able to actually zone the newsstand and get rid of all those damn Christmas magazines. I dream about magazines. Evil. Pure evil. But I’m pretty thankful, not that it’s Thanksgiving, for the people at work that especially make my day better. Not that I’m naming names. And not that they read this, because WebPageless usually gets 2-3 hits per day, and they’re usually me from my computer and phone.
Oh, and today I found two women standing in front of men’s and lifestyles magazines, holding up an open Playboy in front of their faces while reading in plain of sight of anyone who happened to be near, including children. Odd.
G’night.

Inspector Gadget’s MAD Dash for iOS

Inspector Gadget’s MAD Dash for iOS | iPhone/iPod, Reviews, Platformer

Inspector Gadget’s MAD Dash (get it? MAD?), by XMG Studio, has made its way to the iPhone! …[It] is a well made game that both fans and newcomers will enjoy. Fans of the cartoon will especially enjoy reliving it through the colorful art and fun music and sound. It’s simple to play, which makes it easy to pick up quickly. You can enjoy it in a few short minutes or play it longer if you have the time. It’s perfect for when you have a few free minutes and you want something to do that can be accomplished in that time but is still fun!

Bank Activity

12/14/10 CHECK CRD PURCHASE 12/13 HICKORY POINT #18 CALHOUN FALLS SC $74.85

Where the hell is Hickory Point #18, Calhoun Falls, SC? Why was I buying gas when I don’t own a car? How did I get so far away from Barnes & Noble during my break?

Dead Rising Mobile for iOS

Dead Rising Mobile for iOS | iPhone/iPod, Reviews, 3rd Person: Action

Dead Rising Mobile is a fun snippet of the experience of Dead Rising. Unfortunately, it’s not the same masterpiece as its console brethren. It’s definitely more of an arcade game that asks, ‘how long can you last while killing zombies and doing quests to gain power’ rather than asking you to explore and solve the mystery of what’s happening. While I was hoping for a bit more, I enjoyed playing it!

MCAT Physics Connect for iOS

MCAT Physics Connect for iOS | iPhone/iPod, Reviews, Educational

MCAT Physics Connect by Watermelon Express is a new test preparation application for the iOS. Now I know test prep isn’t something we usually cover, but hear me out because it’s fun and could be useful! It teaches you physics, provides sample questions, and shows you where you need to improve. Most importantly (for us), it’s fun at the same time.

The Brothers Mario – GTA IV Machinima


Watch as the Mario brothers fight against Bowser and his gang in this Grand Theft Auto IV machinima. It’s filled with lots of little references and is really well made. It really makes me want to play Grand Theft Auto IV again. Too bad I still can’t afford The Ballad of Gay Tony. On a side note, it’s sad that while it got positive reviews, it didn’t seem to sell well. While I didn’t do anything near a proper survey, a lot of people to whom I spoke responded negatively to the name. People are stupid.
