The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

my dad was a federal agent. He didn't work for the FBI though, he worked for DCIS - Defense Criminal Investigative Services. It was cool, but it was also really stressful on the family. You're still a cop and deal with all of the pressures that go with it. He worked Organized Crime out here in LA, and we had to have a security system installed on the house because the head of the russian mafia lived two miles away from us. He's had countless death threats and guns pressed to his head (and he's pressed his gun against others heads). When he moved back to Texas, he mainly dealt with child pornographers and identity thieves...nothing interesting (in his opinion)

At the same time, there's a lot of boring shit you have to put up with. He'd complain about the paperwork and the internal politics and bullshit. He'd be gone for a few days on a stakeout. It's one of the reasons my parents ultimately ended up divorcing. His outlook on the human race is less than positive, and that's mostly due to what he's seen.

but the pay and benefits are good

Yeah, that's pretty much what I imagined it would be like. It's either that, military, or graduate school at this point (if my GRE scores are suitable for a decent school with funding). Who knows what is best.
 
I would love to have a cig but my balcony's closed, they're painting it or something. I would have to go outside and I have no money for a beer.
 
Listening to tunes, lying in bed and almost considering ordering Chinese food because i don't want to get up from my bed. Laziness is a disease.

Also, the NY teaching fellows is opened and I'm thinking about applying. i'll probably apply to be honest. whatever.

To go to Judas Priest or to not? These ticket options blow. I'd have to buy two tickets for them to be remotely affordable because they are selling them in pairs. Logical me is telling me I really don't need to blow $100 on concert tickets, but whatever I'm sad and need some Priest.


Edit: patience is a virtue that I don't have. My friend just messaged me right after I bought the tickets saying she has a plus one and I could be her date. :( oh well at least I have a date.
 
Listening to some Dvořák. I'll go for a run in a moment. Only had one class tomorrow and I have it again tomorrow. Then two weekend nightshifts fuck yeah (no).
 
Pretty sure mc got banned for spamming the same videos across a bunch of the site and getting temporarily suspended, then making an alternate account to keep posting. He was just rebanned for trying to duck the ban I'm assuming.
