Something wonderful happened to me today. I finally got made full time at my work. This couldn't come at a better time since I'm going to be driving farther to get to work now. This will at least pay for gas getting me there and back. I'm still trying to get a part-time job for my days off. Mind you, an adult in their thirties in America should not have to do this. American dream my privileged white ass. But this is the way things have to be until I can find my way to make them better and I truly am grateful to have more hours. It should lessen the stress I've been having about the move just a little bit.
Listening to Alestorm has gotten me on a pirate kick lately. Maybe I'll dig out my old 7th Sea icons and use them to replace my draenei ones since I'm not currently playing World of Warcraft. Interestingly, I got home from work last night to find Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End playing on TV. I hadn't seen it since it was in the theatre. The Pirates movies make a lot more sense on subsequent viewings. I couldn't understand what was going on the first time I saw the sequels and that detracted from my enjoyment. Too bad I haven't heard a single good thing about the fourth one because the series was quite good for the first three films and that's a rare thing.
Tomorrow's the last day at work before my days off, a.k.a. Moving Day parts 1 & 2. Looking so forward to having the move done.

Date: 2011-10-25 03:33 pm (UTC)I enjoyed the 4th movie. It is very dark in tone, though, so that could be why a lot of people haven't said good things about it. I think I liked it more than the previous 3. Then again, it doesn't have Pretty Boy Bloom either, so with him and Keira gone I think it's disappointed a lot of people.
BUT! Now there's SPICY SENORITA CRUZ!

Date: 2011-10-28 04:55 pm (UTC)haha i didnt know what to think about the fourth movie. honestly, the whole series just seemed like a bunch of random, half-formed ideas thrown together, from a writer's P.O.V. i actually liked the fourth one better than the second. i barely remember the third one.
