Not because of FFXIV. Well, FFXIV is one of the culprits eating up the little precious time I have left per day work leaves me with.
I've also been hacking away at my JET application. The actual app isn't even out yet although it's usually out by late September so something has gotten strange this year... the closing application date probably won't change, meaning the window will be shortened significantly this year. Reasons unknown but everyone's getting anxious.
Parents are actually out of town this week enjoying the World Expo. My daily routine feels like baby sitting at times, with a 役に立たない brother around at home.
Recently got a new (and cheap~) computer to replace my dad's dying video card computer. It didn't make sense to replace only the video card seeing his computer (or at least his mobo) was 7 years old. I'd have no idea what to get anyway (if there's anything out there that's for such an ancient system), so lessen stress and start fresh. Hopefully it'll be a nice surprise for when he returns.
Side note: Ugh why are GPT drives so complicated. If anyone has an awesomely free and easy solution for accessing GPT partitioned drives, send them my way.
Little work rant: Having being in the company for a very short time and had very little to do with the hits on their website (I've only been keeping their sales up to date), I was somehow blamed for their drop in web profit. What. Really? You must be kidding, right? Nope. They didn't even bother putting any of the other probably more influential and obvious factors into their conclusion before pointing fingers. I had them check their sales history and there's was no real trend. So how am I to blame. :| Believe me, I was plenty pissed and still am when I think about it.
One rant a day: done.
Quick touch on food experiences this month:
- I tried out Q-Go ramen. Not bad. I'd go back if it wasn't so inconveniently located.
- I made ricotta mashed potatoes the other day at Sty's house for Thanksgiving. We had TURKEY! SO GOOD.
- Had a crazy housewarming party food feast at Vee's. Numnumnum.
