so 28 Days Later is getting an alternate ending, which is supposed to be much darker and scarier....i want to see it so bad!! apparently if you go see it in the theater and wait till after the credits you see "but what if" on the screen and then there's an alternate ending that about 4 minutes long, which i believe is set in a hospital or something....wow. if you haven't seen it, i really urge you to, not only is it an amazing horror film (the best i've ever seen) but its also just a brilliant film, and for fucks sake do NOT compare it to Resident Evil!! the only thing they have in common is that they're both about zombies. thats IT. so go check it out or i eat your brains.

i'm getting my car on Wednesday it seems. the check came in the mail today. there is a check for $10,000 attached to my fridge with a magnet. i will likely never see that much money at once again. even so, i'd rather it be a car, in the driveway, preferably with plates and all registered and ready for me to drive. soon....

the night cook i work with, resigned, and will be leaving a week from Friday i think. my boss offered me her job, its 32 hours a week and whatnot, but i really don't want it. i'd have to come in late morning and stay till 6:30, which is most of the day, so i'd never get a chance to really go anywhere else. so i guess i'll call her tomorrow and tell her no thanks....might offer to cover some shifts till they find a new cook but i don't know if she wants to go thru the trouble of training me if i'm not gonna be doing the job most of the time. i'd really rather find a new job, and plan to go to Portland sometime in the next week to go into every place i can find and ask for applications and shit. maybe i'll print off a million copies of my resume and just hand them a copy, that might help. i have to find the disk with my resume on it first tho, but i know where it is so its cool. it needs a little editing, and i'll do 2 versions, a food service and a retail, even tho i have no retail experience i can probly make myself sound pretty qualified....i really hope Newbury's needs someone but i doubt it.

this computer crashed about 6 times earlier. in like rapid succession. so i think i'll be taking up Zack's offer on his old hard drive and whatnot....i'd like a computer that works. plus i'd be getting a cd burner. and i'd probly have to spend less than $100 i believe, which i can certainly afford. come to think of it, i wonder whats gonna happen to the extra $850 of that check. probly go towards insurance, which is cool with me. damnit, thats extra motivation to get a new job. well, thats good. i wish money wasn't such a necessity. >:
