Return to the normalcy known as life...

Okay, it is Wednesday. It is the middle of the week, and still i have yet to accomplish anything. Well let me return to the comments from earlier blogs. I have returned this week to work after being out of town for 2 weeks on vacation. It is probably the hardest thing I have done all month, returning to work.
I am a dutiful person and tend to finish off projects before leaving for an extended period of time, so before i went on vacation I made sure that all of the assignments that I had were brought to a point that there was nothing more I could do on them until approval of current set-up was made. Well I have been at work 2 days (Monday was some holiday in Utah) and have struggled with things to do.
Good thing is that I have been able to work on the myspace.com profile, keep up with emails, and search the web. So last night I was playing one of my two newest addictions. I have this thing for RPGs and picked up World of Warcraft (WoW) back in March. Well last night I maxed out my first character at lvl60. Culim the pally is on the Bloodscalp server and has been a time sink in my life as i have worked ever closer and closer towards 60. Well I hit it. And now I dont have such a drive to play the game continuously as I have done what I wanted to.
Well to go on with that, I recently picked up on a game Pardus(see www.pardus.at) while i visited Texas. The only was I can fathom to describe it is a fun quick RPG that allows me to work on my economics skills as well as my desire to be a pirate. So yesterday and today, I have been working on getting to a point where I can think about expanding operations.
So then there is the one consternation in my life that for whatever reason it is I just cant get over it. I have this night job. (During the day I work down at BYU) Well it was a fun job, cause I was paid to play computer games for 3-4 hours a day. Well the owner recently desired to have someone become a manager. I knew I wasnt going to be selected as I am going back down to school in a few weeks. Well the owner picked the biggest goober i have ever met to be manager, and this despite the warnings by various people to the nature of the aforementioned goober. Well, I went in Monday to get my pay and to see what I was working only to discover that goober gloating at his new status.
I dont think he took it too well when I informed him that I just didnt give a damn and that I wouldnt care until the owner, who hired me, informed me of personal changes, and even then I was still not going to care. He took a power trip with me when I asked what I was working that week so I could figure out when I had time in the week.
So I have now had over 48 hours to fume about it, and the flippant response by the goober of 'oh i think you are down for Thursday or Friday' still angers me, but not as much as trying to get a hold of the owner to ask him what he wanted me to work and not getting any response to messages left with him.
So I am trying to figure out what to do next. Because I am aforementioned flawed with the notion that I have some odd form of loyalty or respect for the owner that I should stick with a commitment to work for him, but at the same time I have this feeling of utter disdain for the goober and dont want to have anything to do with him beyond what I have to. So I am undecided if I should even try to work there at all or talk to the owner about it or what...
