Yup. That's about the size of it, you just got to it before I could respond.
It's direct-narration for that reason. If I ever do go omniscient, it will be third-person, just so the perspective difference is jarring enough to know that things are different. I doubt I will, though.
As regards the 'up your geek', I started writing this story while in the middle of a depression, and I was watching funny stuff like 'How I Met Your Mother' and such to try and lift my spirits, as I have a history of....significant depression leading to some very bad decisions.
As a result, it influenced my storyteller style when I was writing. My character is telling this story to someone. Possibly you. Possibly someone else from later on in the story.
EDIT: Hunh. The 'quote' function malfunctioned on me, apparently. All I saw was a loading circle that never resolved. Yowch.
