Where Have I been...
Wow. First missed post in a month... Kinda depressing... *sniff* Oh well.
This weekend was kinda fun. Well for starters, got home on Friday night expecting to goto my second job. I was on a "we'll call if we need you" basis with them. No call. No work. So... All JumpGate. Got the final level possible and decided to goto bed... Not bad for spending 500+ hours in a game. OMFG... Lame???
Woke up at 6:00 AM the next morning waiting for a call. 10:00 AM no call. For those that know me I'm into paintball too... Turns out that my brohter works in a printing shop where they just ordered a 3 million dollar printer from Germany. You bet your a$$ is was sealed up all nice and tight. Came in a wood box. The sides were 10x10 and it was 15 feet long, about. He got first dibs on the box and we got to dismantle it.
Can we say paintball fort????? =) OH YEAH!!!
So we spend a lot of Sat morning setting it up for Sunday morning when we were planning to play. Afterwards went over to Jen's parents house. Had dinner, slept over. Relaxed, for a first...
Got up at 6:00 AM again to head out for paintball... Had the time of my life! I mean, when else can you shoot guns at your friends leaving huge welts on their body and watch them yell in pain??? ;) Trust me, I got my share too. =)
Learned an important lesson though. If you leave an opening in the back of your base, someone will try to exploit it. You should see the welts all over my back. After that, I'm never joining the military. That would just SUCK if it ever happened... :\
Night passed, monday morning. First day of school. I was actually excited for a change. Whats wrong with me??? Excited about school??? Anyway, day went well and now I'm at work... I now get to spend 12 hours away from my house instead of 8 during the summer. Take the 8 hours of classes and tack on an additional 4 hours of work each night... WOHOO... :\
Guess the good part about it all is that I'm half way done... Wow, kinda wierd to think of it that way. Two more years and I'll be done... Can't wait.

You do get covered and paint... and in black and blue marks. The first couple of times it hurts. Then after you get used to the pain you start doing crazy things to get other people scared. =)
Here's an example. I know a bunch of friends who are afraid to play because of how much it hurts. Whenever they come over, they are loaded with padded clothing. Sweatshirts and pants, jackets, baggy jeans. Anything to absorb the impact force.
Then they see me running right at them, gun firing like a machine gun, with only a T-Shirt and jeans on. =) Oh yeah, I get messed up. But I don't stop running. Whats that saying about never getting into a gun fight with someone who is not afraid to die??? Get rid of the die part and that's me. ;)
