Work is becoming horribly unexciting. I am just going through the motions now. Occasionally I get to talk to someone who makes the day worth it but not nearly enough. Maybe isn't the job but the fact that last week they decided that, due to the economy, it was a good idea to discontinue merit raises for a year. This was conveniently 2 months before I was due for one of 2 that I was to be given this year. 13,000 people got to keep their job because of it, though. I am trying hard not be think selfishly.

Nothing else is new. Heroes was decent tonight. Watching it makes me think about going back to San Diego for ComicCon this year but, everywhere I look, someone wants $400 a night to stay. It is ridiculous what people do to each other. That is why America is in shams. I'll rant later.

On a happier/funnier note, I forgot to mention a random event from yesterday while at the mall. I was asked if I liked mayonnaise by a random mall-goer who needed to have surveys done. I said "no" - A blatant lie. I love mayo. I'm a fat kid at heart... and sadly at stomach, too. Anywho, I will attempt to sum up the story. The woman giving the survey filled out most of it for me, answering the questions for me as i was only saying "yes", "no", and "uhh". When i thought it was over, she asked me to step into a room for a moment to have a sandwich. I was given a sandwich with one piece of turkey on it and was asked to put mayo on it and finish an online survey about my experience. This is what Hellman's spends their market research money on. I made $2.

I'm leaving on that high note.
