bring in the office

I assume most people know that I an odd person. I love offices. I've always thought they were a fascinating place. I wonder what it happening in all these different offices. This intrigue is almost as large as my love of spaceships. I've always enjoyed offices, but in recent years I've found new ways to love them. The first would be the show The Office. I love this show. I love watching crazy people working in an office. Yet, I feel this show is more real than any other TV show. The main reason is the fact that it all takes place in an office. You really never have time to hang out with your friends like in all the other shows on TV. Like Friends, they just meet in the middle of the day to hang out all the time. That's so not real. Okay the office is not real either, but it builds on stereotypes that you would find in an office environment.

The second fetish I have with offices is my comic, Ed the business Warrior. I love that comic. I've been working on it for five years now. It hasn't been a straight everyday or even every months in the past. Ed is a character I keep coming back too. He's a big guy smashing computers. I know it's very Office Space with how they destroy the printer, but I've developed it so much further than that. I've started to build new characters for Ed to interact with. The comic is growing to be more than just Ed smashing things to a developed character.

The last thing that I'm embracing for my office nerd is the game Office Hero on my ipod touch. It's so fun. You just go around doing boring tasks to build up your character so they can do awesomer tasks. It's easily one of my new favorite games. It's just like every other flash game, but this one is awesome because it's in an office.

I'm an office nerd. I'm so an office nerd that I'm even trying to get a job in an office as an administrative assistant. Than I can answer phones and file papers all day. It'll be like I've got a real job, well it will be. I might even wear a tie to work everyday! I know my tie collection finally going to good use. I can't wait.

lame things

I've talked before about how I'm addicted to lame TV shows and I just can't stop watching them because they suck me in so well. That's not where the lameness ends. I am also addicted to horrible flash games. Games that bring nothing but wasted time. Wasted time that I could be spend on drawing comics, watching crap TV, or even reading a comic or book. These games are so horrible too. One of my favorites is Tap Fish, the whole game is you look at these aquarium you have and feed your fish. You can also sell your fish to make money and buy new fish. So everyday for at least thirty minutes to an hour I'm cleaning fish tanks and selling fish. Why do I keep playing this game? I don't really know. I just get addicted to things that are not that much fun and play them till they are dead to me. Well more like my soul is dead to these games.

A new game I just started to play is Office Hero. It's like Farmville I'm told, but in an office. I go around and tap on different machines like computers, phones, filing cabinets to do jobs. This is a sick habit! I spend eight hours at work doing this everyday, why do I want to do it at home too? Even while I'm doing this blog I'm tapping away at my virtual office trying to make money and rep points. I'm so addicted I can't even stop for five minutes to write this blog.

The real person I should blame for this is Allison. She gave me my ipod touch, the majority of these time wasting games I play are on the ipod touch. It's all Allison's fault for giving me an awesome time waster gift. She may be the best wife ever, but she the reason I'm addicted to flash games that have no reward and tons of time wasting on them. Oh yes Allison is to blame.
