We're having to rebuild the search server again (previously, previously). It will take a few days to reindex all the content.

Meanwhile search services should be running, but probably returning no results or incomplete results for most queries.

So I've been training at my new job for the past two days??? It honestly seems like it might be... pretty easy, although we'll see what I'm saying next week, when I'm cut loose on my own in a giant empty office building with three mechanics and a porter all the way down the street from the main dealership. Updates to come, I suppose?????

Saw a couple of movies. 28 Years Later was fantastic, Jurassic World Rebirth was not. F1 tomorrow night, mostly for my brother's sake, since there was a free screening of some random native romcom that my mom really wanted to go to, too.

Things are going to be pretty erratic for me until at LEAST next month, when I can (hopefully!) settle into my new position and start rearranging my entire life piece by piece, because seriously, everything has been arranged around the seven-on, seven-off for like five years now, and this is a really abrupt change!!

Haven't watched the entire show yet (or the Death Pain Invitacional, for that matter), but I did manage to squeeze in Tomohiro Ishii vs. Drilla Moloney, so I can breathe easy on that front. Whatever else may be happening in my life, at least I've got my #1 wrestling crush in the G1 to look forward to (and of course All Out, but seeing as how that's all the way on the other side of summer, I don't want it to get here too quickly).

Album #487/1001: The Associates - Sulk )

June Movie Count: 12 (Jurassic World Rebirth, 28 Years Later, 28 Weeks Later, 28 Days Later, Materialists, Cinemania, Ballerina, Full Metal Jacket, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Will-o'-the-Wisp, The Life of Chuck, Tetsuo: The Iron Man)

Not enough by any stretch, but I got other shit going on now I guess.

I accepted the job! Training starts on Monday? Ha ha what the fuck??? This was just supposed to be a normal week off, and now my entire life may be changing!

At least I was finally able to get a bit of basking time in; the temperature still stubbornly refuses to rise above 20 degrees, but the sun was hot and the deck shielded me from the wind, so it balanced out nicely. Takes some of the edge off, at least.

Annoyed that I'm suddenly working the day after I was supposed to be staying up late for Tomohiro Ishii vs. Drilla Moloney, though. BIG TOM YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU, BUT I'MMA NEED YOU TO LIE DOWN AND LOOK UP AT THE FUCKING LIGHTS FOR THIS ONE. I NEED DRILLA IN THE G1. I NEED IT.

NEED.

27. How Did Your Parents Teach You to Behave?

Like... methodology-wise, or what behaviours? Mostly she just taught me to think for myself.

Somehow had a randomly eventful day before 10am??? Woke up bright and early after about four hours of sleep to head back into the Ticketmaster mines and snag good tickets for the London Dynamite, which went very smoothly. Then while I was debating going back to bed, I got a text from one of my managers asking if I could pop into work for a talk?? Which is obviously terrifying, but I figured if they were going to fire me, they probably would have done it on Tuesday, so I was probably okay.

So... I have a job offer! It's 8-5, Monday to Friday, which would kill the whole affair in its tracks if not for the fact that the pay is... a significant upgrade from the peanuts I've been making for ages now, to the tune of over 15k a year. The job sounds like a really good fit for me, which is why my manager thought of me first when he heard the position was opening up, and like... the money alone means I at least have to give it a shot, right??? It's been long enough since I've tried working regular hours, maybe I could pull it off this time???? I don't know. I just don't know! I'm all stressed out, but... not necessarily in a bad way? I told them I'd have an answer for them by tomorrow (the woman doing the job now is leaving next Friday, and I would have to train, so there's not a ton of wiggle room there), so I'll talk to my mom when she gets home and just order a burrito while I mainline lucha libre until then, I guess!!! Ha ha what the fuck!

26. What Would Your Personal Mascot Be?

Some kind of tiger that is also a burrito, and who is the cultural ambassador to some random Japanese prefecture.

Off work. In bliss. Still waiting for summer to show up in earnest, but I had a great night's sleep, watched a ton of wrestling*, did a puzzle, and ate an entire pizza. It's 10:30 and the sun is only just going down. Will go for a quick run once I finish watching Dominion 6.15 in Osaka-jo Hall, and hopefully a torrent of Grand Slam Mexico will be up by the time I'm done (I'm still waiting for somebody to upload CMLL's weekly show from Tuesday).

Keeping my extensive collection of morning alarms set so that I'm ready for the London Dynamite presale tomorrow and I've put in my request for vacation time. Hell yeah.

Maybe I'll take a bath tonight, too.

25. What’s Your Favorite Sandwich?

The one I'm eating.

*oh my GOD free me from House of Torture's reign of terror WHY IS IT ALWAYS DRILLA WHO HAS TO TAKE A GUITAR TO THE HEAD?
