Mood: slightly miffed, going on annoyed and irritated
Listening to: (again) Jason Mraz – I’m yours (for therapeutic reasons… so I don’t smack someone)
As you can see, it’s not a good day. Well, to be honest, I’m at home now… I did make a draft of what I was going to write, but I’m gonna stray from it for fun… well, not really fun either. I’ve been slap happy today, seriously. The guy sitting next to me was eating cashews and he was chewing SO loudly I wanted to slap him… and it didn’t get better when he got chicken wings and started to suck them… I was not happy.
AND I went and talked to the unemployment office about my money, and the message I got “They’re coming”. No message about when that’ll be, and if it takes another two weeks I really AM gonna slap someone.
And then there’s the course leader… I’ve never met someone so eager to please… You CAN’T help me… I’m unhelpable! Sure I’d like a job, but I don’t want just any job… Just… give me a wide birth, and I’ll be happy… and it’ll help… But if I tell him to f-off he won’t be happy… and you know me… I like to please people too… *sighs*
At least my M*A*S*H download is finished. Only took about 5 weeks and three days… And it’s funny. I’ve been watching it now, and there is no candid laughter on it, and watching it on TV it’s like… “That’s not supposed to be funny…”
But I do love mash. I grew up watching it… and Alan Alda (Hawkeye) looks so much like my father it’s funny… well, he used to… If my dad had black hair they’d be dead ringers… when my dad was younger.
Dad got a new haircut, and now he just looks like himself. Alan kept his old look… but if I could persuade him to cut it, kinda like a crew cut, he’d look like my dad XD
The only thing that bugs me about watching mash on TV is bad translations. Like Henry talking to Klinger “You know you won’t get out of the army in that get-up”
which was translated to “You know you won’t get out of the army. Get up” and Klinger jumped to his feet to plead with Henry etc. I hate seeing bad translations… I’d love to do something about it, but NO ONE WANTS MY EXPERTESE!!!!! DX and no one wants to tell me how to become one… *hangs head*
I speak english very goodly… and write it exceptionally well… <.< >.>
The course leader keeps telling me that I shouldn’t put my translator dream on hold, but what can I do? I can’t MAKE people make me a translator… so for now I guess I’ll have to wait. I don’t think I know anyone who knows someone who knows someone who needs a good translator for programs. I can go both ways. Although, I don’t see why anyone would need an English program subbed in English… oh yeah… the hard of hearing.. DUH!
Speaking of hard of hearing. I was watching The Godfather III the other day, with the hard of hearing subs on. Always extra fun to see what people are up to.. hehe… Anyways, this young punk is sitting on a car which is being raffled of, and he calls to the raffle dude.. “So, who’s gonna win the car? An aunt?” and it’s subbed “So, who’s gonna win the car? An ant?” Slightly different, I’d say…
Speaking of movies… The “I’ll have what she’s having” lady in “When Harry met Sally” is dead… may you rest in peace, lady with the most memorable line said by a none lead actor…
Speaking of crazy… I have a surprise for you guys. I’m still working on it, but I think it’ll be fun… well, hopefully it’ll be fun… and crazy… :3
So yeah… keep your eyes open and stuff…
And Happy Halloween, people…
Don’t eat open candy, don’t trust strangers, whatever you do, don’t go home with them… and if you’re gonna egg a house, make sure it’s not mine… I’ve got connections… and he got many many many swords… and a rabbit… so be worn…
