#connor is a curious cat 23/7

[connor-therobot]

“You could injure yourself further by hitting the fire escape and then the cold hard ground.” Connor not so helpfully pointed out with a small sly smile. His led flickered amber as he shifted back a little and debated whether he should tell the truth or not.

“I heard... quite a lot of it. Or at least a lot of what you said. It took me a moment to focus on your fathers voice... You have a few similarities with your speech patterns that I found interesting.”He admitted truthfully, looking Gavin’s face over carefully for his reaction. It’s not like Gavin could tell him off for it since his eyes were closed so Connor stole the opportunity to really look at him. “I promise I started off listening in by accident.”

Attitude problems - closed

Connor RX900 stepped confidently into the Detroit police station, casually scanning every face he passed by as he searched for his new assignment, moving further in. He was specifically looking for a certain individual by the name of Gavin Reed who had made quite the reputation for himself, with multiple disciplinary warnings and a record for inappropriate behaviour towards androids, not to mention an almost blatant disregard for his superiors. RX900 had been sent in to fix this.

“Hey, can I help you-“ A police officer tried to ask helpfully but Connor walked right past him, his eyes locating and locking on Gavin. He took a moment to take the man’s appearance in, staring coolly at the way he was sat at his desk with his feet resting on top of it. The android could already tell just by his expression that this was going to be an interesting assignment.

“Gavin Reed.” The RX900 greeted the man with a neutral expression, sticking out his hand. “My name is Connor, I’m the android sent by Cyberlife to assist you on your cases from now on and assist you with your behaviour.”

Would you hate me if I said to do all numbers on the ask game ? I know ever time I do it I want to write them all! (sorry for my english)

Oh my gosh. There are 150 questions. However, I will endeavor to do them all. (minus the ones I answered earlier of course). Though, it is currently 1:10am in England, and I might get too tired halfway through. But I’ll try! 

Also I’m just curious as to why someone is so fascinated by my life that they want to know all of these things? (i’m flattered by it, i’m just a bit curious) And your english is great, friend, don’t worry!

Okay here we go. Gonna put this under a read more because it’s gonna be hella long. 

4. Are you easy to get along with?

I think so? I think I’m generally a nice person?

5. If you were drunk would the person you like take care of you?

This is an odd question. But uh. Yeah, I guess so? (I’ve never been drunk, and I wouldn’t want to put anyone in the position of having to take care of me if I stupidly chose to drink too much.) 

6. What kind of people are you attracted to?

Kind ones? (That’s cheesy. I don’t know. I don’t think I really have a type of person that I’m attracted to? It’s really about the individual.)

7. Do you think you’ll be in a relationship two months from now?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

8. Who from the opposite gender is on your mind?

My friend Alex, who just messaged me. Shoutout to him.

9. Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable?

Not in the hypothetical. I can talk about sex hypothetically and it doesn’t bother me. But when someone asks invasive questions or overshares about their sex lives, I feel a tad uncomf.

10. Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with?

My sister. We pretty much just talked about our goals for the future, and discussed ways of dealing with tough situations that we’re going through.

11. What does the most recent text that you sent say?

“Hi ___, (parent of my student) Yes, I’ll make sure that ___ (my student’s name) has his homework done by tonight. I’ll have him home by 5:45. Thanks!” 

12. What are your 5 favorite songs right now?

(these aren’t necessarily favorites, but just songs I’ve been listening to a lot lately.) 

Lonely Hearts Club , Another Part of Me , Safety Dance, Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, You’re Welcome (from Moana lol) I’m basically pop, 80′s music, and Disney trash. 

14. Do you believe in luck and miracles?

I would say yes to luck. But miracles, no, not really (with what it implies)

15. What good thing happened this summer?

Lots of things! I got to spend time with my friends who were home from college during the summer, I took a trip to California to visit my extended family, I did A Gay Thing, and then I moved to London! Very eventful summer. 

16. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?

Nope lol 

17. Do you think there is life on other planets?

yeee

18. Do you still talk to your first crush?

We don’t really talk, no, but we’re facebook friends. (Shoutout to Connor)

19. Do you like bubble baths?

YES 

20. Do you like your neighbors?

I haven’t really properly met my neighbors? We’ve passed each other in the staircase, and just exchanged smiles and “hello”s but that’s it. 

21. What are you bad habits?

I sometimes bite my nails when I’m anxious. (Though I’ve gotten better with not doing it). Also, I procrastinate so much, and it’s terrible. 

22. Where would you like to travel?

ICELAND!!!!  Also, I recently took a trip to Bath, England and I would LOOVE to go back. Also I want to go see Bletchley Park, Dover, Brighton and Derbyshire. Internationally, I’d love to go to Scotland, Ireland, Greece, Germany, Japan, Morocco, Costa Rica (yeah okay I’m going to stop listing places now, I think you get it. I like to travel, and there are a lot of places I want to see.) 

23. Do you have trust issues?

No, I don’t think so. 

24. Favorite part of your daily routine?

Going to bed. 

25. What part of your body are you most uncomfortable with?

I’ve never loved my hair. It’s always been really thick and frizzy and just hard deal with and style. I’ve always wished for straight, smooth hair. 

26. What do you do when you wake up?

Usually I’ll just lay in bed for another 10 minutes or so, and check social media/email/texts etc. 

27. Do you wish your skin was lighter or darker?

I’ve never really had complaints about my skin tone? Since moving to England, I’ve been paler than usual, but that doesn’t bother me so.. I’ve never been the type to care about being tan or not. 

28. Who are you most comfortable around?

My mom probably? Or my friend Alejandra. Or Alex (the other night we skyped, and just maintained total silence for about 10 minutes while we each ate our dinner over skype. True friendship.) 

29. Have any of your ex’s told you they regret breaking up?

Kind of?? But I’m p sure it wasn’t real, and was just an attempt at manipulation. 

31. If your hair long enough for a pony tail?

Just barely! And even then, some hair falls out of the back, sometimes. 

32. Which celebrities would you have a threesome with?

Uh. None. Unless we can change ‘threesome’ to instead mean “watch a movie and eat popcorn with”. Then my answer would be Martin Freeman and Ben C

December 2018 Blurbs

12/1/18 The final Chapter on 2018's book began with me checking out the sequel to Wreck It Ralph. And it was Near perfect in every way possible. What wasn't was my drive back and the snowstorm that laid waste to the road, never had driven in snow that bad until today. Honestly was shaking for nealry 20 miles. Luckilly came back in time to see Bama win in epic fashion. I may not like them but they are #1. UCF won as well hopeful they can make the jump. 12/2/18 Connor ended up picking up a new kitten, he and Amber named Nelson. Now I know how Peele felt in Keanu. That cat was adorable and so sweet to be around. Especially that poofball tail. Packers stink as usual to the point where McCarthy got fired during his postgame press conference. Bama, Clemson, and Oklahoma will batlle on the 29th to see who gets the chance to play in Santa Clara. Notre Dame will join them, this should be expanded by all counts. 12/3/18 Andrew has another job, this one late at night. Hoping he'll stick this out. Heisman this year went down to the 3 QB's from Bama, Oklahoma and Ohio State. Wonder how the finalst math is done to drop the number from 5 to 3. Gifts need to be sent out to Eric and Company soon. New Tree skirt looks hopefully ok. 12/4/18 Stuff can take the cake really quickly when it comes to life. Connor apparently has broken things off with Amber now his gut is killing him. Karma at its finest people. Other than that, I don't mind having to get called out to do carts what irks me is when someone like Cole, drops off so I'm completley alone out there. His weaseled out method just really iritates me more. Bowl Mercahndise looking rather dull this year, may save money along those lines. 12/5/18 Well, Connor may have gut problems like me. The real kicker is how incompitent our hospital is here, and how they were throwing in words like liver failure and appendix issues. Grabbed mounted photo which allowed me to finish wrapping the gifts to be sent out to Eric and them. Hopeful that Eli Like gummi Bears. Main gift hunting will begin next week. Do love Holiday seaons, and all that they entail. 12/6/18 The cat may be be cute, but Connor breaking, entering and placing him on me in the middle of the night. Nope. He, can really take the cake when it comes to not knowing how to amicably end a relationship. Rebought Hobbit and that gave me, Legos for the first time in 15 Years. Will only get the Target lego hobbit editons and that will be it. Survey for class is adjusted and will hopefully be done by weekends end. Seminar I still have to do, hoping Dad will give a hand with that. Looking forward to Mamoa on SNL. 12/7/18 Pearl Harbor, a tragic event that led to a worse movie. But on this day there should be a new atalige on when it rains it pours for the winter. I call it When it snows it bursts, cause we all had issues today. Bravada may have a frozen gear shift. Eric lost another girlfriend, Connor may be out of a job, and Andrew may actually be doing better than any of us for once. This is a burst of bad luck. 12/8/18 A day that i had originally set out to do nothing now had me doing even less, thanks to the Bum gear shift. Not sure how we can fix that, other vehicle still waits in the wings. Watched more SpongeBob then i had in a long time wow I missed a bunch. Could really use some good in these next few days. 12/9/18 Packers finally won, just need miracles to happen in order to squeak into wild card. Vehicles e break lite may give me clue in order to fix it. Winter and Christmas need to show up quicker cause it certainly doesnt feel like it especially not around here. 12/10/18 Early night when it came to the back. Used VTO to leave early, stinks i lost a day but at least i caught up on stuff. 12/11/18 Bravada i bought finally became mine with licence plates. Saving insurance for after Christmas. Store had less on today which made the work at least plenteful. But the group with the exception of me and 2 others all left at 9:50 as we got left with the bulk of the cleanup. Not cool in the slightest. 12/12/18 First day with Bravada, not a bad go of things. Penultimate class, surprisingly am at an A hoping i can get this done within the next week. Contingency plan needed for tomorrow, will see SpiderMan on Saturday and hold off on Aquaman until after Christmas. 12/13/18 Nice to find out i can still tack miles on my feet. Will need to do that again soon. Packages got sent including book for retun. Retuned a bunch of stuff for gift stipened, hoping dad likes revenant more than hacksaw ridge. South Park finale made no sense. 12/14/18 Saving spiderverse for sunday, mainly so i can get rid off stuff at BAM, more cash more presents. Will still read Mortal Engines even though movie looks lousy. A lot of ties on countdown, and just discovered a couple i overlooked. Binging Bob's Burgers like crazy. Man that show is a lot better than i gave it credit for. Busted truck is gone from parking lot, didn't expect to have to have management nearly call cops on stolen vehicle though. 12/15/18 Day from hell is an understatement. Eric getting arested, Im working on stuff and Andrew seemed to not know when to keep his mouth shut. Bowl games starting today brought only form of relief. 12/16/18 Better day, Animated Spiderman was something to behold. Got bulk of christmas shopping out of the way. Bravada held up just wished i could get it back fully. Packers got knocked out of postseason. Just hope we can win one more, at least chances are good. Smash Bros Ultimate is awesome. 12/17/18 Mom's gift now safley wrapped. Football continues and the Saints better be hoping they stop stinkin things up. 12/18/18 Cap 2 was down to 4 with a mysterious virus going round. As everyone left by 6, i managed to get out early. Just hoping this doesnt come back to bite me in the butt. Hoping to wrap up gifts by Friday, Aquaman on Saturday may be possibile. Glad thats in town at least. Also did annual watch of Haruhi Suzumiya movie, how come they can't make a movie that long in America. Stinks it has to be shorter than 2 for animated. 12/19/18 Last Class, thankfully was short and sweet. Walked out in good mood after making thank you card. Just curious to know when i may get funds, cause have to take 2 classes otherwise just to get scholarship. Rose Bowl shirt looks great. Will finish gift wrapping by friday at least. 12/20/18 I dont know why but it just doesnt feel like christmas this year. Snow almost gone, skies are dreary and whatever mood were in around here just keeps going up. Better Days by Goo Goo Dolls seems more and more perfect in telling the moood were in right now. Hoping for a few good days, free christmas dinner at store tommorow should lift funk. 12/21/18 The mood certainly is festive store wise. Finished grabbing gifts. Wil be hoping they like them. 12/22/18 Down to the single digits in days left of 2018, one goal of mine i wished i picked up more on was the sign language aspect. Will be putting that back on the 2019 docket. Store for a few more days. Just hoped to go watch Aquaman thanks to VTO but based on what i got coming, better to hold off on that. 12/23/18 Penultimate truck of 2018, thankfully got that done by 10, finally got tree from mountain, bulbs i picked up worked brillantly. Hard to belive it all ends in a week. Good year overall. 12/24/18 Short 4 hours with only Chris and Cheyenne. Best store day of the year in which we turn off all lights and tell people who come in to leave. Cole on the other hand, once again, i got drugged out to fix his mess. Not pleasent. What was was prime rib and quiet dinner with family before i gave them gifts. Poofball hat idea worked on all but Dad may have to return his. Looking forward to nba on christmas day. Wonderful life and Polar Express double feature to round things out. 12/25/18 Linus from peanuts says it all. With angellic hosts proclaim christ is born in bethlehem. 12/26/18 Amazing how one day in total silence with family can turn into one explosive return to reality. All for the best 5 days of the year i suppose. Aquaman movie ended up being pretty great, never figured Julie Andrews would play a squid. Badgers Bowl game tomorrow then final day of work for year on friday. Just hopin i can get final blog posted on monday before library closes. Year is rapidly closing fast. Also 2nd Charlie Brown Christmas special sucks, a little bit much on the meaning of the season and not on what made the first special great all around. 12/27/18 Rain filled the day, a lot of water that may turn whatever snow we have into ice. Badgers won in Yankee Stadium and tomorrow is Walmart 2018 finale for me. Just wish i didn't have a week off after that, but i can make do with micro paycheck for a bit. Already trying to figure 2019 Goals, dont know whether to up it or lower it. Found Attack on Titan Season 3 on Digital. Yeah gonna be good tv this weekend. 12/28/18 The 2018 Season finale at Wallyworld. Epicly enjoyable. Just miffed that  have a week off with little to no Coverage coming in. May seek alternative option. Truck tire thankfully got fixed but other issue may now have arisen. Bad luck streak wrapping this year up strong isn't it? 12/29/18 Another college football playoff another Bama Clemson beatdown. At least Kyler and Oklahoma actually put up a fight. Not sure what movie to see tomorrow. Possibly saving Bumblebee for next week, or VICE. 12/30/18 Entry 364 and on this penultimate day, I chose to go see the Mary Poppins sequel. Oh man it was charming. The welcome balance of modern with slight hat tips to what came before. Packers embarrassingly concluded thier season. Orville came back on tonight and that was equally good, a bunch of side plots that somehow all culminated in one odd ritual where Bortus took a dump, and it was good. Looking forward to adding that on DVR. 5 Packages to send out tomorrow, not sure what i'll be doing when ball drops. 12/31/18 Bye Bye Yesterday...The culmination of 365 Days of life, and as we conclude 2018 I think, there was so much more I could have gotten done. 2 Weddings, A Super Bowl visit, watching Connor finish school, buying my first vehicle, nearly seeing a sporting event, and a prmomotion at wally world. So much more I could have squeezed in. Finished today up with helping dad with bread, and  he made chili, hoping that that wont make us all sick as hes been these last few days. As for this journaling buiness.  I may look into continuing this come 2019. After all that is now as i have put it the year of the endgame.  Definetly would want to chronicle that. Though maybe i'll go the Your Name Route and download an app to chronicle that for my Phone and Ipad. Here's to you 2018, now as Thanos snaps at 11:53 you'll crumble to dust and fade away in our minds and hearts. Its time for the next chapter, and im ready...To Be hopefully continued.

                                       End of 2018 Journal
