I forget

There was something on my mind, but I just don't think I could or should relay it over blogger.

-He must be serious

EDIT

Hrm.. I could probably write a little bit to blow off some steam. I wonder how many couples there are in the world where the man is shorter than the woman. Danny DeVito is pretty short, though he doesn't make the best example. Sylvester Stallone is, he's a pretty good example. And now I'm out of examples.

How about this: Do I take things too seriously? I guess I look into things too much. Let me tell you a little about a relationship of mine that started over the internet last year. I had moved away from home, to Georgia, for my graduating year. After I graduated in Georgia, I was planning on making it home to BC, Canada in time for the school's graduation/prom ceremonies. Upon hearing so, a very close friend of mine set me up as a date with her best friend. Now, this was two or three months before I'd actually be back in BC. It was great for the first month. We talked about how we felt for each other. We made plans for the future. We really sounded like we were the perfect match. And because we sounded like the perfect match, I started getting into the relationship thing.

I frowned on internet relationships, but I figured that since I'd be seeing her in no time that it shouldn't matter. It would be like we knew each other in person before we had met, that sort of thing. Well, I guess I got into the relationship a little too much. And because I wasn't there to spend some actual time with her, she started looking elsewhere. An old crush of hers, an old friend of mine I hadn't talked to in a while, started taking her out. The girl never said they were dates. She just said that they were going out to the theatre. They were just going out to a party together. I believed her, mostly because she never said he was a crush of hers. That and I put faith in her, that she'd wait one more month until I'd be there in person and everything would be so much better.

Like I said, her crush started taking her out. She got interested in him and less interested in me. I had invested two months of my time so I could meet with her over chat. I think the last bit of our conversation together was something like this, though not word for word:

Me: So, what have you been up to?
Her: Just got back from (enter location here) with Chris
Me: Cool, how did that go?
Her: I like Chris
Me: Do what you want. I'm not there, so there's not much I can do
Her: I don't want to hurt you
Me: I called you my girlfriend
Her: Sorry for leading you on

The actual conversation probably lasted 30 to 60 minutes. That's pretty much the boiled down version of it. I did tell her I concidered her my girlfriend, she did say sorry for leading you on. Actually, those were there last words she said to me. And I did tell her that since I wasn't actually there with her, that she should do whatever she wanted to do. I don't wish that on anybody, nor do I ever want that to happen again.

I did end up going to the same prom as her, though I didn't go with her. When I got back to BC, I asked other people to their own prom; it wasn't my prom but I had a ticket. And all the people I asked I had known since 8th grade. When I hung out at the school the last week, I saw that girl. It was weird looking at her, and there was an akward 'cold' between us. I had nothing against her, though I probably had every reason to. She just didn't want to be my friend.

Dinner for Two

Like most other things in my life, the urge to get my nipple pierced passed as quickly as it came. Sure, I still want a piercing, but I've still got a long time to think of it... or get incredibly drunk and have it done. Either one works

Today I didn't go to work with "the boss" but instead stayed home and helped my Dad take some junk to the junkyard. When I got home, he presented me with a list of stuff to do, which he'd pay me for. That was at 11:50am. Here's what was on the list:
Mow the front and back lawn
Weedeat the front and back lawn
Clean the gutter at the back of the house
Sweep/clean off the deck and pool area at the back of the house
Vacuum and clean the back porch that is screened in
Vacuum the inside of the house
That was the list of things that I got done in four hours. Well, I also helped him cement an umbrella clothes hanger in the ground and put up a volley ball net. Then I had to blow all of the grass off the driveway and walkways with a leafblower. The only thing on the list today I didn't get done was painting the rails in the front of the house. He said he was paying me for my work today, so all I could think of all day was "enough money for dinner and a movie.. and not a cheap dinner. Dinner for two, yes".

-All tuckered out

More Piercing Talk

I think I've found a way to get my piercing for free: My Step-Dad's boss (a wealthy and good humoured guy) wants his own nipple pierced. He's in his mid-thirties. I'll casually bring up that subject tomorrow when I'm at work with him, and tell him that I want mine done as well. I'll then say that he can watch, to laugh at my pain, if he pays for the piercing. What's $50 to him? And on top of that, I'll still have what I earned that day working. I'm not saying I'm getting a piercing tomorrow, but any time in the next week is a huge possibility.

The downside to that is, I won't be able to get my piercing done with my "romance partner" in Winnipeg. Writing in this Blog would be so much easier if I'd actually use names of people, it's just a thing I do. Security on the internet and all that stuff, except for when I named the Manager of the Pet Store I worked at, I called her by her first name. So to the special lady in Winnipeg who's waiting for me, I mean no offence when I call you something otherwise :)

Oh, right, back to the topic. The downside to me getting the piercing here in Georgia is that I won't be able to get it if/when she does when I'm in Winnipeg. The good thing to it, though, is that in two weeks when I'm finally in Winnipeg, the piercing will have healed and would be ready to be played with.

Now, about my burn. It does hurt. I've been moisturizing it all day, in hopes that the skin won't peel. Nothing sucks worse than peeling skin with a tan. Just that it looks funny/gross. If anything, it'll be gone in two weeks... if it peels. Hopefully the tan will stick around.

-Thinking of you all day

Another lame quote on my part

Me: Hey, Dad! Look! I laid in the sun for 3 hours today

Him: {Pokes me} Does it hurt. How's it feel?

Me: {Reels back in pain} It feels like burning.

-Did you catch that? I thought you would

I make the effort

Ralph: {skipping with his diorama after coming first place in class} I beat the smart kids! I beat the smart kids! I -- {trips} {unhappy} I bent my Wookie.

Lisa: Hey Ralph, want to come with me and Alison to play "Anagrams"?

Alison: We take proper names and rearrange the letters to form a description of that person.

Ralph: My cat's breath smells like cat food.

-I don't watch enough Simpsons any more

Needs Cash

With the Winnipeg trip only 17 days away, I need some fast cash. Other than selling my body to rich old ladies, about the only way I could think of making some quick cash is to go to work at the shop of the company my step-Dad works for. So tomorrow morning, I'll be at the shop, doing piddley little things like "handing Frank this wrench" or "cleaning up that oil spill" and "sweeping the dirt out of the garage" etc etc. What's the money going to pay for? Well, every little bit helps. If it buys dinner for two and a drive-in movie space, then that'll suit me just fine. If it pays for a piercing, dinner for two and spot at the drive-in, excellent. If it just plain out pays for a piercing, then by all means necessary, something in the world of economics might happen.

Then fun will have to be made by itself. A little cheaper, but fun none-the-less to spend it with someone you want to be with. Oh, I forgot one little detail. The boss still has to say if he needs my help tomorrow. He's a nice guy who's over-generous with his friends. Maybe he'll pay me for what my work is worth, and then throw down $50 USD toward the piercing. Maybe if i tell him I'll video record it so he can see the look on my face when it's happening, and I can mail it to him for his enjoyment, then he'll just outright buy me the piercing. Hehe... *sigh* there I go daydreaming again.

Must be nice

Actually, it is. If you say "It must be nice to sit around a pool all day and listen to music", then common sense would probably tell you it is ;)

Today, I lay on a matress on the pool. I cycled through a 74 minute CD twice. First time through, I was on my back. Second time through the CD, I was on my front. Three days of doing that and do I have a tan? No way. I'm cursed to remain untanned, there's no justice in this world :D

I have a day and a week until I start the drive from Georgia, back to Canada. I'm not driving, so let's call the driver 'Henry' (he doesn't like that name). We go up through St Louis, then to Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Head west from there, and eventually end up back in Canada.

(50 minutes later)
Woohoo :) I just got off the phone long distance. If you're a regular reader, you know what that means. !!! I'm excited !!! Less than 20 days, and I'll be there. I'm legal to get into bars in Manitoba, which means I can buy my own liquor from stores. Oh yeaaah. 18 nights until I've got spikey black hair and red streaks. 18 nights until I'm with her.

18 days, 19 nights

I went to an Atlanta Braves baseball game, tonight. It was a good game, with a final score of 10 to zeeero for Atlanta. I was there with my step-Dad and a work friend. After the game was over, my Dad said, "Boy, there's something wrong with you. All those girls there and we had to point them out to you." And the friend pipes in, "Yeah, you're no fun". But I really didn't feel like looking. I don't know if I'd have even noticed anything if I had looked. They said I was daydreaming the whole time I was there, which is probably true. I was off in LaLa Land. Bordering on fantasy and the baseball game. What was on my mind? My trip to Winnipeg, which I might add is only 18 days, 19 nights away. I can't wait. Oh... I was just daydreaming again. 18 days.

-"Look over there!" "Huh? Over where? What?"
-Oh yeah, ex-prez Jimmy Carter was at the game, too. I had to point him out.

Lives at home but never lives there

I've been away from home for a little over two months, let's see if I can make that three. I've got a special little lady waiting for me in Winnipeg. I just called my Dad, I asked him if it was fine. He hasn't seen me at all this summer and I live with him. So he'll front the cash for the ticket and I'll pay him back when I see him in two weeks. There's no going back now, the ticket is non-refundable.

My name is

I am an 18 year old virgin. Fairly rare these days? I think it is, according to what everyone else says about me. I'm not a saint; I still wank in bed. And I'm comfortable enough to say that here, even where my Dad's long-term girlfriend can read it (hi delothermum). I party, I think of women. I look forward to my first year of college, because I don't have any hell of a clue what's going to happen. I wonder what my first time having sex is going to be like. I don't wonder about who it's going to be with, because I already know. I am a man, therefor I worry I might be like every other guy and end up hurting the one I love, or whatever strong feeling I should use. I'm just another guy. I'm not too good to be true. Nobody should have to worry about breaking my heart. If you think about how you might break a heart, you'll invent ways to do it. If you start to invent ways to break a heart, you'll end up breaking that heart as a way to justify that you thought you might break a heart. I have faith in people. I have faith in you. I'm 18 years old, 5' 7", 145 lbs. Dark hair, green/yellow/blue/grey eyes (all at once, no contacts). Semi-tan/white skin. I want to feel love, but I don't want to set myself up for a heart break. In relations, I want it all or none. I'm not the kind of person to date more than one person at a time. That makes me feel like a player, and a player is at the bottom of the barrel in my books. In the perfect partner, I look for honesty. She has to be someone I can share my feelings with. Someone I can share anything with. She has to be intelligent and mature. She has to believe in herself, and trust herself. If you don't trust yourself, how is anyone supposed to trust you? She's got to make me smile, and she has to make me want to be with no other girl than herself. Loyal, affirmed, confident.

-But enough about me, let's talk about you

Writing for the sake of writing

I don't know what about. But I'm just writing. It's 2:17am, I'm half-chatting, half-sleeping and half-writing in my blog. So, uh, I'm made up of three halves? I was chatting with a friend of mine from Georgia over AOL, earlier. She's in California with her cousins for the next two weeks. She wishes me good luck and says "You can do it". So it's good to hear what I want to hear from someone. Everyone else is a cynic.. maybe I should look that word up in the dictionary. I think I used it in the right context.

So, 'yesterday' was a 'work around the house' day. Like, mowing the lawn. Ever mowed the lawn in 90*F+ weather and close to '100%' humidity? Neither had I, until today, err, yesterday. Now, 'today' is Sunday. So that means 'grocery day'. I usually only go get groceries with my parents (I'm 18) because it's about the only family activity we do together, short of eating together at the dinner table. So that's my plan for tomorrow, and more lounging around the house listening to music. I also have this funny feeling I'm going to have to clean MY BROTHER'S BATHROOM tomorrow :(

Site Update

The flames have 'done me good' for the last 4 or 5 months, but I thought it was time for a change. I'll try this template for a while and see if I like it. It's still got lots of customization to do, mostly adding my n00b counter again, and all the links. Change is good, as the saying goes.

Now, about the hottie friend; she's going to like this. It's quickly turning from "hottie friend" to "hottie girlfriend". But if it's the gf thing, it has to be done online. We can both wait as long as it takes (under a year) to see each other. Myself, I've gone 3 years since I last saw her, and that was when I last had a girlfriend, but sadly it wasn't her who was my gf. The last four nights, we've kept each other awake... until 5am; me on the webcam an MSN, "Hottie friend" on MSN. It's a little one sided as she gets to see me, but I don't want to force her into getting a webcam, as nice as it would be to see her. I'm all fidgety now just thinking of her. OH! Last night while we were doing the webcam thing, we told each other, "Only until 2am (eastern time)". Well, I was on the webcam and my internet cut out. I was typing and staring into the camera for 4 minutes before it told me I had been disconnected. I was all "Oh damn. What if she's going to bed now? What if she's mad because I just left!?". So I searched all over for her phone number, and I made the Über long distance phone call. From Georgia, USA to Manitoba, Canada. I hope my mom's got a $0.10 a minute plan that works. Now I'm out $7.50, but the "hottie friend" also called me back and charged it to her mom's phone for an hour, as well. I like this, now this year just has to pick up the pace and she'll have graduated and it'll be summer and...

Lyrical Update

"A New Found Glory - My Friends Over You"

I’m drunk off your kiss
For the another night in a row
This is becoming too routine for me
But I did not mean to lead you on
And it’s all right to pretend
That we still talk
It’s just for show, isn’t it
It’s my fault that it fell apart

Just maybe
You need this
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can finish what I started
There’s no room left here on my bed
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Please tell me everything,
That you think that I should know
About all the plans we made
When I was never to be found
And it’s all right to forget
That we still talk
Its just for fun, isn’t it
It’s my fault that it fell apart

Cuz maybe you need this
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can finish what I started
There’s no room left here on my bed
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Just maybe you need this
You need this
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can finish what I started
There’s no room left here on my bed
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you

Evil Movie Store

I used to love Hastings until they dissed me last night. I went there with the sole purpose of renting Shallow Hal and so my brother could buy his copy of Neverwinter Nights. There's no Shallow Hal's up on the movie racks, so I ask for the movie up front. Mind you, there's signs plastered up everywhere "If the movie or game rental is not in, we'll give it to you free". So I'm expecting, nay demanding, that Joetard Upfront working the counter either hands over the movie so we could rent it, ala paying money, and take it home to watch. And if he were incapable of doing such a simple task, he could hand over a "free rental" voucher like any good Hastings employee should do. This is what he says to me, "Sorry, we've given away so many today. It's like people are coming in now just to get the movie for free. We're expecting more tomorrow, come back then" and he shoo'ed us out the door.

-Doubley Evil

Prank Calls

While on the phone with "the girl" yesterday, we got on the topic of movies. And like all movie conversations, Star Wars popped up. We mentioned Episode 2, then I said that was the best of the episodes, in my opinion. She mentions Episode 1, so I went on to explain how I'd fallen asleep both times I tried to watch it. She asks how much of it I've seen. So I told her.... are you ready for this? I told her I'd watched it "from the beginning to the fight with the blue balls on the field. No! I didn't mean to say that. Uh, blue energy balls!? Blue spheres! Whatever?"

- Um, can we change the subject... please?

Happy Times

By the way, to those who still don't understand what rhymes with TOAD, this does: System of a Down... SOAD... TOAD. Get it? Nah, didn't think you did. Anyway, I've been having a good time with "the girl". We watched the fireworks at my old school on the fourth of July. I'd have counted that as a first date, except we went with her dad, step-mom and two younger sisters. So that counted more as a "family test".

Oh, about the waterpark :) It was fun, when things got *troubling* I either jumped into the water above my waist (not a good idea to stand waist high in the wave pool) or I closed my eyes and thought of hammers and mallets and sledge hammers. You can imagine what I was thinking of to ease the pressure, but it worked. Not that you want to read about the activity going on in my pants, anyway.

Still listening to SOAD, as well as "Eminem - Without Me" and some Injected. So... yeah. I've really been at a loss for words lately. I can talk to "her" but haven't really talked to any else. I like spending time with "her", and I hope she likes spending time with me. Then the dreaded thought of me leaving in 3 and a half weeks creeps upon me.

-Dreaded, and not the hairy kind

Rhymes with TOAD

So, I've been listening to a lot of System of a Down lately. So much that I've memorized all the words to "Toxicity" and most of the words to "Chop Suey". I've checked with lyrics.com to confirm what I've been lip-synching and it was pretty close. "New, what do you own the world? How can you own disorder? Disorder?" I was actually singing as "No! Nobody else on the world! Nobody else on the sidelines! The sidelines", but I got that cleared up.

Tomorrow I'm supposed to be "having fun" at WhiteWater, Georgia's water park. Girls in bikinis, sure that should be fun. Well, can you spell "guy (me) in flimsy shorts surrounded by eye candy"? 8am I'll be there. Yikes. Don't know when I'll be back, but I think we're all going to make a day of it.

My mom's friend brought over her step-daughter last week. I met her, we exchanged greetings, then sat 15 feet from each other for 30 minutes not saying a word, just listening to the parents conversation. Word gets back to me from my mother, who spoke to her friend, that her step-daughter thinks I'm hot. She's supposed to be stopping by some day after she gets off work, which will be nice. Then we can talk. She works at a nursery, which I keep mistaking as an old folks home. *Reminder: Nursing Home == old folks home. Nursery == plants.

Let's lay out in the sun tomorrow and get burnt

Some people's children

I'd like to start off with a brief description of yesterday:
Great American Scream Machine: 10 minutes
Superman: 60 minutes
Freefall: 15 minutes
Georgia Cyclone: 10 minutes
Log Ride: 5 minutes
Georgian Scorcher: 10 minutes
De Ja Vu: 2 hours, which I wasn't going to wait for
Thunder River: 15 minutes
Ninja: 0 minutes
Acrophobia: 50 minutes
Mind Bender: 5 minutes
Looping Starship: 0 minutes
Batman: 10 minutes
Wheelia: 5 minutes
Most rides lasting less than 60 seconds: Priceless

I spent all day, from 11am to 8pm, yesterday at 6 Flags. It was a hell of a fun day, to say the least. I got to ride every ride there, save for De Ja Vu, which looks dumb anyway. I was ready to leave after 4pm, but my company didn't want to leave for a whole lot later than that. There was plenty of eye-candy to stare at, in the form of bikinis. Bright sun, to burn my skin to a crisp. It was a great day.

My mom talked to my sister about that hottie friend and it turns out my sister was telling the truth. The hottie friend likes me, or the way I was anyway. And the last time she saw me was two years ago. And how much can change in two years? I'll let you do the math. Regardless, if I ever get the chance, I'll treat her like a real lady.

And about the "some people's children" thing, it's pointed toward my (most of the time well-meaning) jackass of a brother. It must be the blonde roots or something, but really people who don't ask for excess information don't WANT IT. For example, when someone asked me how many children my mother has... Well, I'd have said "Five. Three older daughters, then myself and lastly, my brother". But Nooooooooo. My brother has to say "Seven, but two were miscarriages".

-I'm ridiculed in everything I do

Neverinstores Nights

After 4 days of waiting patiently *yep* I found Neverwinter Nights in Hastings. So they can shove that special order of mine down their cacks; whatever that is, but they can still shove it there. Regardless..... whatever. The last few weeks I've been here, I've been hyping my brother up for Neverwinter Nights. He saw videos of the game being played, he saw screenshots after screenshots. There was nothing of the game he didn't see. So today when we found it, he bought it with his money. It was $54.95 before taxes. I don't know the exact tax rate in Georgia, so I'll just guess it came out to $57.99 after taxes -- sure. So he brings it home, starts installing it. I put on Sakura Diaries to watch for the next hour. I end up falling asleep watching the three episodes -- there was no pr0n at all, just a scrub down by titties, some tittie groping and a guy who's receiving the tittie fun from his COUSIN. Back to the topic at hand, my brother started playing NwN after the movie was over. I wouldn't go anywhere near that room, I didn't need any more spoilers than the people in IRC have spouted off already. So, my brother plays the game for the next two hours before he gets bored and says "I don't like that game." "Why not?" I ask. He says "Because it's not at all like Diablo 2" (which he never plays any more). So I say "I'll buy NwN off you for $40" and he says "Sure". I ask him many times afterward "are you serious?" and it turns out he is, so I get $18 off the game. w00t.

While my brother was playing NwN, my sister called from BC, Canadia. Her totally hot friend, from Winnipeg is visiting her, she's been there for the passed week. The last time I had seen her friend, was about two summers ago, maybe three. And she was still a hottie then; imagine three more years to get even hotter (I'd like to imagine anyway) so you can see how I'd really like to see her again. My sister tells me she had talked with her friend a couple nights before for a few hours, and I was the subject. My sister isn't one to bullshit me, so I had to really question if she was screwing with my mind. She insisted over and over that we have to talk when I get back about her friend, etc etc. I still don't know to believe her or not. Sucks I won't get to see that hottie, my plane that takes me home left today at 2:30pm EST, and here it is 8:55pm EST and I'm still in Georgia. Looks like I'm here another month. So, anyway, I talked to her hottie friend for almost an hour today. She was bugging me about the whole missing out thing, and I really wanted to get off the topic. I didn't want to talk about that stuff in case they were fucking with me and I'd come across as an ass to the hottie friend. 'Oh, he likes me. Haha, I'm just playing him but this is fun' because I've had enough of that. Last time something like that happened... I won't get into it. I talked with the hottie friend, and it was all good. She said it's too bad I'll never get to see her this year and blah blah. When I got off the phone with the hottie friend, my sister wanted to talk to me again. I told her to show the hottie friend some recent pictures of me, especially the ones of me in a tuxedo from prom/graduation. Then my sister goes on to say she's serious and we really have to talk. I play it off like "Pfft, yeah right" and she's all "No shitting you. We have to talk". Hottie friend = 20 years old. WiLD2 = 18 years old. Hrmmm, she's got a boyfriend back in Winnipeg. See, they've got me obsessing about it now. Exactly the game they want me to play, or is it a game? Maybe it's real. OH NO.

Koga Ninja Magic, THIRD LEG ATTACK

Igo Ninja Magic Balloon attack counteracts the effects of koga ninja third leg attack. *HUPH* PUFF * HUPH *PUFF* [penis blows up]
Such is a scene from Lady Ninja, a movie I rented out of curiosity. Live action Manga, how corny could you get? It's no where near as good as Iron Monkey 1 or 2, Once Upon a Time in China 1, 2 or 3... It's pretty much at the bottom of the barrel.

Today I spent the latter part of the day driving through town visiting all the stores that might sell computer games, in search of the elusive Neverwinter Nights. Hastings had it in stock, but refused to sell it until tomorrow for fear that "They" will get mad at Hastings for selling it sooner. Circuit City told me they weren't expecting it until "The end of June" which tthe circuit city lady then corrected herself and said "Wednesday (tomorrow) or Saturday". Wal*Mart are a bunch of Cat-Turd burglers and there's no point in asking any one of them. Lastly, K-Mart is full of fucktards, and asking someone in there for some help is like asking "here's a giant monkey wrench, pull my tooth. Please sir, may I have some more." My last resort is charging into Hastings tomorrow morning/early afternoon and grabbing 1 of the 5 copies before they are sold out. 5 copies ordered for the RELEASE of a game?!?! How daft can you be?

Undone - the Sweater song

I'm me
Me be
Goddamn I am
I can
Sing and
Here me
Know me

If you want to destroy my sweater
Hold this thread as I walk away
Watch me unravel
I'll soon be naked
Lying on the floor,
I've come undone

Oh no
It go
It gone
Bye-Bye
Who I
I think
I sink and I die

I don't want to destroy your tank-top
Let's be friends and just walk away
Hate you see you lyin' there in your Superman skivvies
Lying on the floor, I've come undone

Celebrity Blog

Must be cool for Avril Lavigne to be considered a celebrity. After reading her bio she really seems like an (un)ordinary down-to-earth girl. So her blog wins a place on my blogs link, it's there on the left; just look. I refuse to write any more of her in this blog for fear that I'll write myself off as a lovesick fanboy. She's close to my age, the same nationality, total hottie...

A guy can dream, can't he?

Off Topic and A Dream

First off, I am slightly confused what the difference between 'Forgotten Realms' and 'Dungeons and Dragons' is.

I spent an hour at the local bookstore yesterday and I happened across the RPG section. $10 would buy me one campaign, cards (I assume), figures, character sheets, cutouts (I assume) and dice (again, I assume). I say 'assume' because on the box, there was no list of contents. Only "includes everything needed to play" which might include a dungeon grid as well. $10 is a great deal, especially since the first DnD Game I ever owned cost $60, which included 8 pewter figurines, dice, cutouts, hard dungeon grid, players handbook, DM handbook, character cards, character sheets, spell cards, item cards, weapon cards, equipment cards... the list goes on for all you can think of. I'm kicking myself in my @§5 now because my brother and I sold the game to a friend for only $15 two years ago before we moved. I don't know where I'm going with this rant, that's why it's off topic.

Now, about the dream. It's short and sweet, which led to my day being depressing until I found an item considered treasure. I had a dream that I was hanging out with some friends of mine, of which included a girl I've liked-very-much-so for the last year and more. I had a dream I had asked her for a kiss, and we proceeded to kiss. The day (in the dream) went good. Then I woke up, figures I had to at an inoportune time. Realizing it was just a dream, you could understand how that would start the day in a depressing way. Then I found the Spiderman skateboard in the mall...

Happy until threatened about college

It works, it really-really works

I spent the afternoon poolside today, for a good two hours. An hour into my relaxing pool-side loungefest I covered myself (at least my exposed skin) with Dark Tropical Tanning Oil. It worked. It really, really worked. Now the entire front of my body (body that was exposed) is red, but it didn't start like that. An hour in the sun, on my back, I was fine. I was white; pasty white. 20 minutes after getting out of the sun, I notice how brown I am. 40 minutes later (20 + 40 = 1 hour) the brown turns to hurting red. Now when I'm shirtless, I've got a white wife-beater (muscle-shirt) outline. The tops of my arms are red, the bottoms are white. the insides of my calves are red, the other 3/4 of my legs are white. Lesson learned:

-turn over

That's why it's called a vacation

I've spent the last few days at a friend's house, and she had a hottie friend of hers over, as well. That was amusing, but there's this whole age gap that kinda plays on you like "This is wierd" etc. So two days ago I was back home for a few hours while I completed next year's course selection for university. the schedule is mostly Monday, Wednesday and Friday (MWF) for the first semester. Tuesday (T) leaves me one japanese lab and Thursday (R) is my 3 hour long Chemistry lab. Screw that?! Since when does computer science have anything to do with Chemistry, unless it's a discipline thing.... and who's ever heard of discipline in College?

I helped out an old couple with their huge lawn, yesterday. Did that with my brother and a friend of ours. Then my ride showed up early and we had to leave our friend behind to finish the job and clean up. That sucked because I only had half a fence side to finish weed-eating. So 3 hours x at least $8 = decent money. We never got paid that day, either, because we had to leave so soon. And my brother has already spent the money that he doesn't have (it came from me). He's bought himself a GeForce 4; but not just any GeForce 4. No sirreee Bob. He's bought himself a GeForce 4 MX 420, which runs just as well as a GeForce 2 Ultra. For $99 it's a good deal, I think, but since I talked him into buying the GeForce 4 (he says "But I don't want to buy it because you said MX is bad"), maybe I can talk him into bringing it back for a refund and we could buy a GeForce 2 64MB Ti at BestBuy.

Again, regular updates aren't going to happen, this is a VACATION after all.

-Once upon a Fragglerock

Dry Georgian

I don't know what that means, but it hints I've arrived in Georgia. Today I saw a friend of mine from last year. Last year, she was a hottie, and probably a hottie with big plans. Today when I saw her, she was working in a local grocery market and had gained a small amount of weight. This is something I've avoided at all costs, being stuck in the same old town, working in a small store, not getting anywhere. Now, I'm not saying she's not getting anywhere; she could be working through college, which would be great for her, but statistically...

Tomorrow is another friend's graduation; it'll be a good day tomorrow.

-early to bed, early to rise

Double Eww

Yes, girls have an affinity to me... and every time, it ends up being an uber-underaged female. This time it happened to be a 10 year old, and my friend can confirm that. It's her cousin, she'd know; which makes me wonder why she wouldn't stop her before she even started to tell me she was 18 etc. Gross, enough of that.

So, this last week has been fun. I've been out to dinner a couple times, I've visited the Banff Springs Hotel (castle-esque). Very nice place to visit, and expensive to stay even one night, I'm sure. In addition to visiting the hotel, I also got to watch StarWars Episode 2 in the Banff theatre. And the DVDs I've watched... American Pie 2, A Knights Tale, Planet of the Apes, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, Titan AE. I'm probably forgetting a couple.

In Lord of the Rings, I've read up to where the Fellowship departs. In fact, they are still upon the steps of the Last Homely House.

OH! Last night, it was raining and raining. I'd never have imagined this late in the season to wake up to 4 inches of snow. May 22!!! SNOW!!??!? It's summer time. I'll be flying away from it tomorrow, 8am I leave. Fun stuff, blog later.

-Freezing my knackers off

Not Stalked

Of course I'm joking about being stalked, it just felt like an appropriate title.

-Wubble-Pop

Stalked

Not to blow my own horn or anything, but young females seem to have an affinity toward me over the internet. Like I was "Truman" fom "The Truman Show" and they were all my fans wanting a piece of me. How true could that be? I mean, if I was the star of my own show... never mind. Anyway, I was chatting with a friend of mine today on MSN. She was visiting her friends in the town were we went to school. She lives in Calgary, she's in BC visting right now. I'm in Canmore, only 40 minutes from Calgary, visiting.

A couple hours after our conversation ended, she started chatting again. Except it wasn't her, but her cousin. So she outright starts flirting and asks me if I'm single. We're both 18, etc. She used the 'heart' icon a few times, then called me sweetcheeks and 'huny' a few times. I showed her a couple pictures of myself, she asked if I wanted to see her. I said 'please' and she responded she'd rather we met in person first, but she did have pictures. So 2 minutes pass and no picture; shortly after, she responds with an excuse why she didn't send (her parent had to use the computer) etc etc.

So, if she doesn't send me a picture before the month is over (and she'd better send a picture if she continues to call me huny and sweetcheeks) then it'll be a month until I see her in person. And then it would be a surprise and could go good, could go bad... and what am I saying? Internet relationships suck, so that's not going to happen. When stuff like this gets thrown at you, it's time to run.

-Run man! RuN!

He's A Super Hero

StarWars Episode 2 was very good, probably the best of the bunch, so far. The first day-time showing since it opened Thursday and the theatre was half-empty. Now, let's analyze "half-empty" and "half-full". If I was expecting the theatre to be empty and 50% of the seats were used, I'd say the theatre was half-full because 'full > expectation'. If I was expecting the theatre to be full and only (notice now I use the word 'only' where I didn't previously) 50% of the seats were used, then the theatre was half-empty because 'empty < expectation'. That makes sense?

Now onto my super powers. I've discovered recently that I have the uncanny ability to piss people off at will. Tonight my Grandma was my victim when she, unfortunately for her, happened to set me off. She stated the obvious all too much, and presented it to me like it was news or some schitt. That offended me, so from that point on, I was very quick with my replies and non-communicative. Here's some general things that'll set me off:

1) Asking of my family (may include but is not limited to "So, how's X doing?" or "What is your X doing right now?" or "What is X planning on doing tonight?")
2) Small talk about my schooling (may include but is not limited to "You have to get this done" when the person has expressed no interest in my school work previously)
3) Inquisitions into my life (may include but is not limited to "What did you do today? Why did you do that? When did that happen? Who was there? What color was the shirt you were wearing? What color were your pants? Were you aware those colors don't go well together?")

As you can see, I like some privacy, and I may go to the extremes and insist that you have just trespassed on my personal life. There's a certain few people who may get away with a few questions on occasion. The last message I received from my Grandma was at 10:52pm and it is now 11:47pm. I've since written approximately 1000 words of discussion to her, with no reply. I know she's around because my Grandpa is still online, too. Here's a snippet of our discussion:

She asks me if I'm excited I'm going to Georgia, I reply by telling her I'm not excited and I've hardly given it any thought. That's my way of keeping the excitement to a minimum, I deal with it when the time comes. She explains my Mom and Dad are excited and looking forward to my visit. Well, thank you Miss Cleo. That was something I didn't know, and you are truely a divine person for enlightening me with your knowledge. Yes, that sounds a little harsh, but I never said that to her. In fact, I let it slide, I said nothing... untl a couple minutes later when I responded with an 'ok'. She tells me it's the truth, and to trust her. To which I replied my independance 'I don't need to trust anyone' and there she turns sour. She pushes on me I've got a bad attitude etc etc. I corrected her, explaining I was merely stating my will to not have to rely on other people. I never got a responce after that. She'll be loving me again tomorrow. So tonight, I'll watch "The Hobbit" on VHS and fall asleep, sleeping.

-Just thought I'd be helpful and tell you the sky is blue, in case you didn't know -- thanks for the help but it's really not necessary.

Vacation Si Teh Me

A 9 hour bus ride yielded two hours of sleep, 5 hours of reading (Lord of the Rings) and 2 hours of staring blankly at absolutely nothing, I'm sure. I was just able to check into my email now, as well as update myself on the current Aurora Toolset for Neverwinter Nights from BioWare. Seems the beta toolset was let loose upon the internet today, which is good news all around. Except I don't have my own computer to use it with for another month. Upon which time the game will, undoubtedly, be released.

Here's a new plan to my summer: I spend a week here, in Canmore, only 4 hours from BioWare's offices in Edmonton. I drive into Banff with my Uncle and Cousins and Aunty tomorrow; we all see "Star Wars Episode XCVII: Attack of the Returning Jedi Clones Who Strike Back at the New Hope" as a matine (mah-teh-nay -- it's french, don't ask). Then tomorrow night I go to some clubs and pick up underage women. After the week here, I spend a month in Georgia. Can't say much about the Georgia trip because it hasn't happened yet. After the month in Georgia, I fly back to Calgary; at which time I visit in Canmore for another week. Then to Revelstoke, then Kazlo, then down to Vancouver, then back to Vernon. I'll have my bags already packed when I return to Canadia so there's no harm spending another 2 weeks abroad.

-I Fell Asleep Through "The Phantom Menace" Just Now

No More School

The tunes of Jimmy Eat World carried me through the day, writing test and exam, until my ears hurt from the headphones being on them so long. My final course grade: 80.4% (with 67% on my exam). So hoorah hoorah at that stuff. So with my math out of the way, I'm free to go to Georgia and party like I'm not in school. I've got my condoms and lube packed, now I just have to find willing female companions to share them with. If you'd like to participate, you can contact me at...

So tomorrow I leave for Canmore, Alberta. I'll arrive at 5:35pm which gives me 4 hours to freshen up and prepare to hit the nightclubs (namely the Hard Rock Cafe and WiLD Bill's) in my 18 year-old legal fashion. Yeah, 18 is legal; so I'll be fresh game for any cougars out there who want to take a young stud home for the night. Oh, cougar? Nah, too old. I meant any 17-20 year olds. My Uncle Dave has promised to keep me non-sober for the entire week I'm there. He's vowed on my life I'll arrive in Georgia with a 7-day hangover. w00t! Bring on the liquor. Oh yeah, and the young hotties.

School bay-bee

Now will you look at that beautiful piece of art-work? It's excellent, the best screenshot to ever come out of a kid's imagination But seriously, now (although I get a stiffy every time I look at that 'screenshot) it's time to seriously consider some serious stuff, seriously. I spent 8 hours at school today, from approximately 1am to 9am. That's with a hair-cut sometime inbetween, today, too.

My math stuff is coming along quite well! Though I'm about 2 hours behind schedule I didn't get Chapter 10 finished today, though I did complete roughly 9/11 of it (9 units of 11 from Chapter 10). So tomorrow I'll finish chapter 10, then write the Chapter 10 test. Then study for an hour for the final math exam. Then spend the next three hours after that writing the final math exam. Shock and horror, I just lost my stiffy

Oh yeah, now about my haircut with the hairdresser. I entered the salon for the second time ever, the last time was before December. The hairdresser was talking with a typical hairdresser lisp. Him and the receptionist were talking about cake and the hairdresser was saying stuff like "girlfriend" other hairdresser words. I had washed my hair before going to get my hair cut because I'd generally prefer if washing my hair was left up to me. I guess I didn't know that on Men's night, in which the hairdresser is the only stylist in the salon, the shampoo/conditioning is included in the low-low price of $13. So for the first time ever, a man washed my hair. A man no less. Regardless, he did a good job, even though he shortened my hair to half it's original length when I've been attempting to grow it out for the last 4 months.

I, uh, appear to have brought down DungeonPlanet singlehandedly. See, I posted this picture, claiming it was an in-program picture of a "Beta Toolset" in use. I didn't specifically say it was the Aurora Toolset, or at least I hope I didn't. I then posted the link (it's the DungeonPlanet link to the left) in the General Discussion forum of BioWare. That was 30 minutes ago, and only 7 minutes ago the site stopped responding all together. I'll upload the pic later, after school so you can all see what it is I'm talking about.

Must Update


The picture of my Redgaurd wearing the robe was starting to get annoying, time to bump it down a little. I went to the college yesterday to work out my course selection. It didn't go too well . Apperantly I'm still enrolled in highschool and still haven't graduated; like hell. So I've got to call some lady and tell her to straighten it out, or at least walk her through it. Now I've got 5 years of school, rather than the average 4 years, mostly because work caused me to flunk out of Math 12 and fall into Math 11. 3 days left to finish my math course, I think I'm making good time. I finished Chapter 7 yesterday, today I'll finish chapter 8 and write tests 8 and 9. Then I'll get started on Trigonometry tonight, finish it tomorrow, study for the exam all night and write the Exam Thursday.

I ask my Dad when is a good day for me to go to my Uncle's (by bus) so I can visit before I go away. He mumbles and grumbles, then pauses for a minute, then grumbles again. Then he tells me he wants me to finish my math first. It's about that time I want to slap him out of his drunken stupor because explaining the same thing to the same person over and over really pisses me off; as my Mom, unfortunately, is proof of that. But this isn't about her, it's about him. So I explain again that whether I leave Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday or Tuesday, if I haven't got my math finished by Thursday then I'm not going to get it done at all. So it doesn't matter what day I go, I tell him. Trust him to forget that in another 12 hours (from now, thus 24 hours from yesterday).

I'll put in another 6 or 8 hours of school today, devoted to doing just math like the rest of the year's done to me. Except I usually only stayed at school for 3 hours, no longer. I averaged 2 hours, though. So only 15 hours a week. This week, I'll have 24 hours in; how's that for 4 chapters of work and an exam? The sooner I get this done, the sooner I can get the party started. Like a dog that has a habit of licking his balls, I just wanna have fun. No math = no worries = fun summer.

-Summer of Fun

Treasure Hunter




That's not an edited image. What you're looking at is a Robe that restores 15 health per second, when damaged, and 15 fatigue per second. I can hold myself under water until I run out of breath and I don't die, I don't even notice the health bar diminishing.

Sound too good to be true? It probably is; it sounds too good for me. Must be a bug, and if it's not, then I'm extremely lucky to have found it. It must be as rare as an icicle in satans ass. Eww, I don't know where I came up with that metaphor.

Here's where I found it: The Daedric Shrine on one of the two islands immediately south-east of Seyda Neen, the city you start in. You'll encounter Fire Atriarchs, some Cthulu looking baddie, Corprus dudes and Ash Slaves. I had to use two icarian scrolls of flight to get to the end of the dungeon; however, I suppose I could have gotten away with using one if I had gone the right way. Hrm, you might also want to bring the six ash statues found in the wrecked ship near Hla Oad. I saw that six were missing from inside the dungeon. Wonder what would happen if they were put back? I don't know, I sold mine long ago -- stupid me. Anyway, when you're at the end of the dungeon, look up at a 45* angle away from the back of the dungeon. You'll see where you need to go. Potions of Levetation do the trick and are probably preferable over Icarian Flight.

P.S.

Happy Mother's

-Day

4..3...2..1...

Yup, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday; the only days of school I've got left before I'm off to Georgia. 4 days to cram Chapter tests 7 through 10 and write the exam... I might be able to pull it off.
Monday: School, college appointment, dentist appointment. Chapter 7 written today, finish Chapter 8.
Tuesday: School, school etc. Finish and write Chapter 8 test and possibly 9. Get started on Chapter 10.
Wednesday: Finish Chapter 10, maybe write the test. Spend tonight reviewing Chapters 1 through 10 for tomorrow's exam, if I've gone according to this plan.
Thursday: Write the Exam -- Or Write Chapter 10 and the exam. Depends on what I've got left.
So that's my little schedule, which is very tough. I'm trying to cram two weeks of work into 4 days, it IS possible because school opens at 9am and is open until 9pm every day, except Monday (closes at 4:30) and Friday, closes at 12. So I won't be going to school Friday. That day I'll be on my way to Banff, hopefully.

If I miss any of my tests and whatnot in the next 4 days then I'll hopefully be able to cram them into June 24 and 25. Doubtful, though, because those days are report card/grading days. I don't think they'd appreciate me writing tests when they're finishing up the year already.

-Thanks Mom

CAMPER!

I'm back a day early from camping, and just as well anyway. It was costing my Dad $20 a night to have me there, so I only stayed one night. I was following my cousin's girlfriend back today, and she in turn was following my cousin. They were going too slow for my liking so 5 minutes into the drive back (along the dirt road) I stopped my car completely. I gave them a 30 second start on me, could have been more, could have been less. Judging by the (fun) results I wasn't thinking right. They were doing 50km/h down the road, I was doing 65. Not much of a difference, really, but it was enough to catch up to them. So I was going around the corners all sliding and having fun when I get out of a corner onto a straight stretch of road and my car starts to slip on loose gravel. Doesn't sound exciting to you but when I was nearly run off the road twice within 5 seconds, it was lots of fun for me :)

Yesterday was a lot of moping around, and eating, and not doing much else in general. Today was a "study" day, where I spent most of the day reading through my math work. Then I just decided to come home, here I am. The end

Rational Thinking

I really do fly away on May 23, which is really cool because I'll make it for Newnan Highschool and East Coweta's grad. I just want to make it to EC's so I can see a certain friend before she moves away to New York. Newnan's grad will be good, too, if I can make it. I've got various friends I'd like to see then, too.
May 29, the day of my college appointment, I'll just register online, or get another college-apt friend to register for me. And my sister offered to drop off the $100 deposit for registration, as well. So that's cleared up, but finishing my math course isn't. I've got 4 days of school left before I leave, thanks for next Monday being a holiday. That's 4 days to try and finish chapters 7 through 10 and write the exam as well. All that needs to be done with chapter 7 and 9 is to write the tests seeing how I've finished those already. Chapter 8 (advanced Geometry -- fairly easy) and Chapter 10 (Trigonometry) are all that's holding me back. That and the fact that I'm really rushed for time. So whatever I don't get done in the next 4 days, I'll have to get that done June 24 and 25, 25 being the last day of school.

House Sitting, is that - like - baby sitting?

Tuesday night I get a call from my Aunt (GASP! Here's a name -- the name of Peter Parker's Aunt) asking for my Grandpa. That was at 4pm, when she let me know my Grandpa's brother, and thus my great-uncle, had just had a severe heart attack. 4:30pm I got a call from that man's son, asking for someone else I had no idea of. Come 5 or 6pm, my Grandpa's other brother calls and tells me that his brother had died and not to have me tell my Grandpa, but that he'd take care of it. So that was Tuesday night.

Tuesday afternoon, I was in school. I got my chapter 5 test results back -- not too good . Only 52% on that test, bringing my mean grade down to 82%, but my overall grade down to 56%. Not too good at all. So I wrote the chapter 6 test, same question formula over and over, so I either passed with 100% or I failed with 0%. And on the topic of school, today I spent 2 hours 17 minutes at school. In social terms, that means I spent 1 hour 50 minutes talking and being distracted with all the female eye candy. The other 27 minutes was spent rushing through a short chapter 9 in all it's statistical glory.

Morrowind update: I started a new character, two actually. Another Thief, but this time it's a Lizard-man, I forget what their race is called. He's a NightBlade. A magic user, more or less, but I use him as a thief, the magic is just to enhance his thieving abilities. My other character, my newest and current favorite, is a RedGuard Knight. He kicks ass.

***BREAKING NEWS***
My Mom tells me she bought my plane ticket to Georgia already. The plane leaves May 23 and is a non-refundable ticket. Why is this bad? Because I've got an appointment May 29 at the college regarding registration and my courses. NON-FREAKING-REFUNDABLE TICKET?!?!? 0_o NON-RESCHEDUABLE-COLLEGE-MEETING. Good -- Bad... I'm falling right now, I'm upside down. You've heard that before, it's probably an equilibrium thing, but I feel like I'm hanging from the ceiling at this news. I'mma go now.

Beta Testing

I feel as if I'm beta testing Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind for Bethesda Softworks. The first day playing it was fine, I hadn't gotten very far in the game, nor was I doing much. Now, however, I find the game crashes on me 3 or 4 times in a 1 or 2 hour session. It happens only 3 or 4 times because I get frustrated with the game and stop playing after that. Here's the bugs I've encountered so far:

1)) You fall through the floor when you bunny hop, happens often enough for you to ph34r jumping. If a lake is underneath you (Vivec City) then you end up falling through all layers of ground until you splash into the water where you need to swim around until you find a place out. If there is no water beneath you, count yourself lucky if you fall and the game automatically resets you on the floor where you fell through. The unlucky time is when you just fall and fall and fall... and fall.

2)) Game crashes when you quick load a game after someone has started talking to you. Can't be reproduced every time, but it happens often enough, as said before.

3)) I'm sure there's a third bug that annoys me.

You all know my system specs, but here they are again in case some Bethesda developer is actually reading this and wants to do something about these bugs.

I close the locked door behind me

And in turn I learn I don't have the keys to open that door. I locked myself out of my own house today at 2pm, and didn't have my car keys with me either because they were on the same loop as my house keys. I walked around the house 5 or 6 times, checking all the windows and doors. I even attempted to pick the lock of said door, and was almost successfull but I'm underexperienced. So I sat in my car, which I didn't have locked, and read the Lord of the Rings novel for 30 or 45 minutes before I fell asleep. My Dad got home after 5pm and I was back in the house. School was over by then, no point in going out after that.

-entries have gotten duller

Assassins Abound

School stuff - that's the name of today's game. I've got to go to town today to get a key from my Grandma for house sitting tomorrow. I figured I may as well stop in at school and write a test, seeing how I'd be in the neighborhood. Busy month, May is. Saw Spider-man (excellent) Friday night; house sit for 3 days; pound posts for a fence; have an appointment with a college councellor re: courses; Uncle's surprise birthday at some lake with cabins (and thankfully electricity); Dentist appointment; and finally, an appointment at the college re: registration of courses and timetable stuff. I suppose I should also pick up a Student Loan application some time soon, if they are even out yet.

The Morrowind of the story

Yessum! I bought Morrowind and have thoroughly enjoyed it since I bought it 36 hours ago. My first character was an Illusionist Mage, but I strayed to the Destructive side. I think I'll scrap him and start a true Destructive mage soon. My second character which I started this morning is an Assassin-Thief variant. Great with acrobatics, good with athletics, great with small blades, good with ranged skills. A very sneaky character, I often steal stuff from shop keepers whilst they aren't looking and I sell them back. I was only caught once when I tried selling a basket back to a shopkeep, he said "That basket is mine. What have you got to say?" and his fondness of me went down from 46 to 45 of 100. No big deal, and he didn't call the guards on me. Now, if I can find a mage with 60,000 gold or better, I'll be rich. I stole a 60,000$ soul gem from a mage apprentice, but most shop keepers only have 800 gold on them, so I can't sell it yet.

Time to sneak through the town some more and loot some more stuff. I just hope I won't get caught later on; meaning I don't get caught right away, I hope the shopkeeps don't put 2 and 2 together and come after me. I'll be forced to whoop some ass, instead of hiding in shadows.

-Moral

Obsessive Gaming

Morrowind is now in my possession

-Game Time

Suck to the stuff

OK, I called around to EB Games, Radio Shack and Wal*Mart, in that order, and nobody has Morrowind. The assistant manager of EB says the game will be in tomorrow with the morning shipment, but I don't trust that bastage >_< he never hired me when I applied there months ago. Guess it's just because I'm over qualified for the job. If all goes well, I'll be adventuring all night tomorrow, after I get back from the theatre and Spiderman, right? Right!

-Addicted, or some such thing

Small Break

I've got the Lord of the Rings novel from my friend, who I also borrowed his PS2 from, but he's got my GameCube now. Morrowind is also supposed to have been released upon the North American public today. Barring only reviews, I'll see in a few days whether or not I buy this game. It could tide me over until the release of Neverwinter Nights, and then again, it could make me overlook NwN completely -- all depending, which is to be expected. And since I'll be house sitting for my grandparents this weekend, and pounding fence posts for my Uncle, I should come back at least $60 richer, the game being $75 most likely.

-Bored to hell and back

Camping is done

And that doesn't sound like it went too well. It was great, I had fun. But no where, any time, was I told any money would be coming out of my own pocket. That's why I brought my own food, right? Yeah, that's right. I packed my own food and my own drinks. So why, then, didn't anyone tell me before I left that I'd have to pay for the food I'd eat while camping? I had my own food to eat, but everyone pushed their food down my throats. Not that I said "No thanks, I think I'll eat my own food", because I would have rather eaten their food. But if I had been told, "Those two eggs, two sausages and two slices of bread you just ate cost you $5" I'd be like "fucking hell no it doesn't". So out of these meals, it cost me $25: [thin steak with mashed potatoes], [4 pieces of French Toast with two sausages (of which there were leftovers)], [two burgers], [spaghetti (plenty left over)] and finally [two eggs, two sausages and two slices of bread]. As for liquids, I mostly drank water and my 5 cans of diet cola nobody would touch. Now I'm kind of bitter, because everyone else ate much more than I did, I'd have been quite happy only owing $15.

-I'm upside down

Camper!!!

I'm going to be lame and camp the next 24 hours at least, possibly even 48 hours. Nobody likes a camper but somebody's got to do it. And with the possibility of coming across wobbly female companions, it'll be well worth it. Out to one of the many lakes tonight, where hopefully the snow's all melted from. Otherwise I'll be sleeping my my car for two (possibly one) nights. Birthday parties are tons'o'fun, but only if you're 16 or older and it's not your own party. My friend turns 23 today, I think. Could be younger, he acts younger. So it'll be drink-drink and make whoopy tonight, though I never liked using that term "whoopy". It made me think of Whoopy Goldburg and that's never a seksi thought.

-sex0r

It's just one of those days, you don't want to wake up. Everything is...

I just wanna justify ripping someone's head off >_<
Not really, of course. But it is one of those days I just want to get away from my computer. I think I'll go upstairs and play some Tekken Tag Tournament on the big screen. Or maybe I could make myself some instant noodles and scratch my nuts.

As you can see, I never did take that "one week break" from my computer. That's alright, I got caught up in some other stuff. So many projects going on at once, that's pretty bad. I'mma try to change into one of those people who only has one or two projects going on at once; if you have many it's usually a sign that you can never stick to it through the end.

Excitement about Neverwinter Nights is building. I redownloaded the three known (to me) trailers of the game and I want more. I want a demo of the toolset. I want I want I want. Please, for my own good, do not give them to me. I've signed up for the beta and I've been a member of the official NwN forums for months. I'm as good a shoe-in for the beta as anybody. That could be your present to me, BioWare.

Random Old Lady in the Super Market

I like your necklace. It really suits you.
She was eye'ing me up in the line at the cashier. She started walking down to her few groceries and had left her walking stick (it sounds much more grand than 'cane' ) hanging off the side register. My Dad walks up immediately after her, taking her place, but leaving her grand scepter there (so now it's a grand scepter?). I picked it up and hung it on the seperator post thingy behind her. She started looking around for it, so I pointed it out. She picked it up, looked at me, and she smiled. She then proceeded to tell me she thought my necklace suited me very well. See, it's a wodden bead necklace; brown and tan in pattern. I made it myself after my youngest cousin tried pulling it down over her fat head last summer. The clamp was closed and she succeeded in showering the lawn with 50-odd wooden beads. Needless to say, my necklace is now made of 40 or so. -- I always like to help other people

Now, for the game stuff. I spent two hours last night playing Dungeon Siege with the No-Level mod. The first hour, I levelled up my lvl 0 farmer to lvl 38. In the second hour (or slightly more?) he graduated to lvl 67 Champion. Talk about power levelling :) I'm bored and there's not much else to do with the game.

Today I started a new character. Instead of the melee character like last night, I spent the last hour building an Archer. In 60 minutes, no more and no less (it's my limit ) I brought her up to lvl 50, 3 attacks away from lvl 51 !!! Now that is impressive, more or less. I'll spend another hour with her later, then I'll choose which character, the Master Sharpshooter or the Champion, I'd like to run through the Single Player map with, in MultiPlayer mode; at least the castle level.

-Good deeds and smilies abound

Oh, right

I forgot to update you all about my ProgressQuest character (though the link is to the left). Currently Level 43 with 443 HP, 537 MP and knows 40 different spells.

-I'll make you care

Brother

dad saw the bags under my eyes and knew i was staying up really late. he asked how late, i said 1:00. he said 11:00 bedtime or "no computer or tv". i said ok so now its 11:00 instead of 10:30. G'night.

-what he said

Master

That's what I am when it comes to Tekken Tag Tournament. Go ahead, I am teh L33T. Take me on if you dare!

My ProgressQuest character is teh L33T. He's up to lvl 40 now.

This is just another line to add to my post.

Um, yeah and stuff.

I spent way too long with computers over the last 24 hours, and they weren't even my own computers :( I got $10 out of my sister for helping her. I didn't get anything out of my Aunty for the help I gave her (which was plenty of help -- She's got a friggen DELL of all things, YOU DON'T NEED HELP WITH A DELL!L!L!"

-L33T

um, blorg?

Aaaaaaaahhh, massive (de?)pressurization of my ear. It pains!!! I just spent the last 2 hours power levelling a friend's combat mage in Dungeon Siege. Went from 0 to 28 in about 50 minutes, then another hour. He's lvl 38+ now, we killed the Dragon Queen, then cleaned out the Drake Nest of all other drakes. By that time it was 2am and I wasn't really too eager to stick around much longer.

While playing Ragnarok Online today, I lvled myself up to 17 and job lvl 7 Swordman.
My ProgressQuest character, SnotShrivel is a happy little Double-Hobbit Bastard Lunatic. He's currently level 38, very close to level 39 and kicking muchos ass.
Shock and horror!!! I'm in first place in the BuF Fantasy Baseball league! 0_o I bumped Dopefish out of first place. Though, tomorrow (today by Blog's terms - the 22) I'll be down to 5th or so. I've only got 4 batters playing today, so statistically I should suck.

Tomorow is going to be another day at school writing tests so I can catch up. I succeeded in sitting on my ass all weekend and not doing much of anything. I didn't touch my homework once. Not so much as even a bump, or lifting up the book to get at something underneath it. I have will-power. Oh! Yes I do.

->_<

Oh, when I was visiting my friend the other night, I brought his PS2 back with me. I still haven't touched it, maybe I should set my TV up and play some Tekken Tag Tournament until I pass out. Or maybe I should continue playing my FFX save until I pass out. Or maybe race some GT3 A-Spec until I pass out...

-I passed out

You're my Daddy

Gas Powered Games, it's taken me a long time to track you down. And now that I've finally found you, I thought you'd like to know you're my Daddy. You see, this game you just made has owned me almost every single day since I bought it, and I got it asap. I was up last night conquering the Great Northern Forest and when I say conquering the I mean I really cleared it out. There was nothing left alive in the forest, save for the odd fairy, butterfly and fish in the ponds you can't fry. The bandit boss to the N-W through the Great Forest yielded a kickass rare ring which I cherish. And the 4 drakes (maybe it was 3? I can't remember, it was 4am when I got there) guarding their various treasures proved a very worthy fight. Mostly because I was in a 3 person MP game and I was taking on the G.N.F. all by myself as a lvl 36 Magus.

-GPG, I salute you

Sleep deprivation Hallucination

So's I'm driving home tonight after visiting some friends out of town. It's 1:45am on the way home, I'm in the middle of town, the streets are dead. I'm a zombie behind the wheel, dead tired, but aware enough to drive - or so I thought. I glance up and see the light turn yellow, so I slow down and stop the car. There's a vehicle in the oncoming traffic who runs the red light. I glance up and it's green. Did I gap out? I don't think so, my foot would've fallen off the clutch. Sleep deprivation hallucination.

I'm almost home, I'm at another intersection but this time the light is green. I know for a fact it's green, I can go, it's green. I checked twice, three times. It's green. Then why is there a guy walking at the crosswalk only 70 feet ahead of me while I'm doing 60 mph? I glance up, the light is green, I can go. It's green. I still don't know why he didn't run out of the way :-/

-makes you think something bad happened, dunnit?

Late Night Ramblings

I have to wake up in 8 hours (regular sleep length) and drive my Dad into town so he can pick up a vehicle.

Ari talked me into playing Diablo 2 LoD today. After my stint with DungeonSiege, I notice Diablo2 is a lot faster, the characters anyway. I found myself wanting to hit the health and mana hot keys a lot. Of course, since it's Diablo 2, there are no health and mana hot keys, only belt slots. That and I wanted to rotate the screen, too. Other than those two nuances, I was back into Diablo 2. At least for tonight, or whenever someone else is in a game and wants me to play, too.

TWD, a resident misunderstood jackass of BeyondUnreal Forums (link to the left), still holds ownership to #bad in ETG. I demand he pays child support, or at least gives me visitation rights. In fact, I might just null our little arrangement with the help of an ETG admin. Yeah, take #bad out of his name and put the ownership in my hands. It's ok if you don't understand what I'm talking about; I might explain some other time.

Progress Quest

After a two month break of not running Progress Quest, I've learned my lesson and will be backing up the save for my character on a regular basis. I had three L33T characters before hand. Wangus, WangBottom and WangDangle. I lost all three beyond repair when I shut down my computer without first exiting the PQ program. I have since learned to make regular backups, you can find my new character right here.

For the daily news, I woke up this morning and thought, "I'd like to go to school today". So I rushed upstairs, ate my breakfast at the table (I've eaten downstairs every morning since December - so you will notice this is a new thing). I then got in and out of the shower as quickly as possible. Then I got caught in a tangled mess with my computer for 30 minutes this morning, longer than I thought I'd be. Soon after (about 12:30) I was out the door and heading into town. I stopped at The Violin Shop to buy (non-impulsively) a guitar strap. Something I've been meaning to buy since last summer but never got around to it. When I finally made it to school, I was ready to do two or three tests. Yeah right, it took me 2 hours 25 minutes to finish one test. That was enough for me. So I'll be going back into town in an hour or so to get started on test #2 of the day, Chapter 4 of Principles Math 11. I kind of cringe when I see "Math 11" because technically, I'm in the 13th grade. I graduated last year and I'm smarter than this, it's proven that I'm smarter. Just goes to show what a year off school can do to a person's brain.

Damned Albertan Rednecks (not all)

This is the story all about how my Dad got cut off in traffic down town etc. My Dad's in the far right corner of two lanes going into town. The rednecks in their truck should have been in the left lane, but were instead in the middle of two lanes all throughout the corner. So my Dad lays on the horn, but they stay in the middle lane (and this is why it's a well known fact Albertan drivers suck a large amount of bullcock when it comes to driving). After the corner, they are back in the left lane. Both the rednecks and my Dad are side by side at the intersection, so my Dad shakes his fist (or flips them the bird) to let them know he thinks they are both dumb asses.

My Dad takes a right to go into the mall parking lot where he can take money out of the bank. The two rednecks follow him into the parking lot. My Dad's about to go into the bank, the passenger comes yelling at him "why'd you finger me, I wasn't driving". Well, the obvious reason would be "because you were the closest to me, dumbass". My Dad said something like that, and he could see the guy was ready to take a swing. Dad dodges and begins pummelling on the guys stomach. The driver comes out, starts swinging at my Dad, so Dad whoops on him, too. They both walk away, then one guy turns around, comes back. Dad engages him, then he gets sucker punched from behind by the second guy. Dad turns around, the guy runs away and trips. Dad runs up and kicks him in the ass while he's down. By that time, someone had run over to break it up. It was some big guy from the gas station in the parking lot. The end, the rednecks ran away before the big guy came over. All that happened to my Dad was a redmark on the front of his face from being sucker punched and he's got a foot print on the front of his shirt, but he doesn't know how it got there.

I'm compulsive/impulsive

com·pul·sive
adj.1: Psychology. Caused or conditioned by compulsion or obsession.
n.1: A person with behavior patterns governed by a compulsion.
adj.2: caused by or suggestive of psychological compulsion; "compulsive drinking" 2: strongly motivated to succeed
n.2: A person with a compulsive disposition; someone who feels compelled to do certain things

im·pulse
adj. Characterized by impulsiveness or acting on impulse: an impulse shopper; impulse buying.
n.A sudden wish or urge that prompts an unpremeditated act or feeling; an abrupt inclination: had an impulse to run away; an impulse of regret that made me hesitate; bought a hat on impulse.

Wonder if that's a bad thing? I bought my GameCube on impulse. I figured, "Hey, I just got fired and I want to spend my money. Oh, look at this, this would be great to play with my friends" and I dropped 500 Canadian dollars on my complete set-up. I believe that I impulsively wanted to buy a Sum41 concert ticket. Today I then proceeded to change my mind of spending $35 on the Sum41 concert ticket, and decided, because of a discussion of old comic books, that I'd rather pay $45 for "The Secret Wars" marvel comic collection book. So tonight, I'm reading through GameSpy and see a review of 007: Agent Under Fire for the Xbox. Then I think "Hey, I should buy that for my GameCube. I was waiting a month until after it was out, anyway. Yeah, I'll do that instead of buying a Sum41 ticket or Comic Book". I heard 007: Agent Under Fire was an excellent game, I might as well get that if I can.

As for the compulsion, that comes after the impulse. For example, I was reading through an online comic, 8-Bit Theatre when I impulsively decided I needed to make a Black Mage in 3D. Then my compulsive self kicked into high gear and I decided I had to finish the model all in one sitting. Once I've got my mind set on something, it's rare that I don't carry it through.

I'm rich

$40 was what I earned today. And a Snickers candy bar as a "tip" so my Aunty says. That's $90 in two weeks, almost $20 more than what I was earning bi-weekly at my highschool job two years ago. My Uncle wants me back next week to help him build the fence we tore apart.

Not a good day

Lately I've turned into one of the typical post-highschool guys who falls asleep way too late and wakes up around noon. Noon = between 10 and 12. This morning was a particularly nasty morning. I wake up to my Dad knocking on my bedroom door telling me to wake up (which never happens but I'd appreciate it if he actually took charge of something in my life and started giving me shit about something. I almost get away with murder here). Oh, yeah; anyway. He tells me my Uncle phoned and wants me at his house for 12 noon. "Damn!" I think, he could have given me a couple days notice. He wants to cut down more trees and then rip out the fence in his yard. I have to be there to help, partly because I want to (but I wish I had more notice) and partly because I'll get at least $30 out of it. I hope, rolling out of bed with a bleeding nose (yes, I rolled over and blood came pouring out my nose) had better warrant at least $30 for the day starting off bad already.

Happy Birthday

My Grandma turns 70 years old today, Monday, not Friday. Happy birthday and thanks for all your baking. May you live 70 years more. My Grandpa turns 75 years old some time this year, too. I figured he was in his 60s 0_o

I'm back now from my Grandma's birthday party. It was over at 6pm, but I stuck around at my cousin's house watching movies with friends until 12(am?). Time to go watch some pr0n and think of dumbass stuff to do. CKY2k has inspired me.

Sleep? What's that?

This is tiring. I'm thinking about taking a 1 week break away from my computer. I can still hang around home, but with minimum computer time. Ugh, so many distractions. College stuff, got to get that cleared up soon. Guess my head is pretty empty right now, not a good day? More tomorrow, I guess.

-what was that

Hey you!!!

I'd really like to check my Blog statistics. You know, like how many hits I've had on a particular day and/or how many hits I've had since the creation of my Blog.
----
About dinner (who really wants to hear about my dinner? I know I don't but I'm just that bored). The pepper-soup, which I've never had before, was actually very good. If my Uncle had put jalepenos and maybe some chunks of vegetables, not just finely finely ground red/green peppers, it would have made a good salsa. My Uncle is the head Chef in his restraunte (Italiene) so whatever is left over from the night, he gives to my grandma, who in turn gives it to my dad and I.

Dungeon Siege is still brutally owning me. I'mma stop talking about it -- for now. You need to buy it to find out what it's all about.

Hey, maybe one last thing to add to my post, just for fun:
Ostrich, Elk, Moose, Deer, Cougar, Bear, Worm, Shark, maybe I've left something out.

I just read through my first Blog and I'd have to say, it's kinda scary. I called all my ex co-workers "hot" and "my own age" when in reality, there was only 2 or 3 that were remotely good looking. That and none of them were my age. The closest to my age was 20 (I was 17 when I was there), and each and every person there had a significan't other. Whoa, that just put a thought in my head -- I got fired because I never got laid. Here's a lesson boys and girls:

-A bonk a day keeps the red flag away.

Are you done yet?

After numerous template changes, I finally decided to go with the first one I tried :-/ Flames, yes flames are always a nice touch. CrackWhoreMonkey seems to be modifying his website, as well, so I'm working sans smilies now. Hrm, what's new?

Jedi Knight 2 is kicking an ample amount of rear-end. Dungeon Siege is still impressing me. Oh, speaking of which, I almost had a near disaster in it. There's two ways to save. The normal save (which is a back-up of sorts in an emergency) and then there's the quicksave. I had saved and quicksaved before I had entered some bandit's base, and proceeded to only quicksave for an hour after that. Forgetful me, you're never supposed to forget to quicksave, and I didn't, but I did forget to save as my emergency slot. An hour after my last save, my two mages were killed. I immediately went to hit the quick load button, but by mistake I pushed quick save. So here I am with one DEAD mage, and one that's knocked out. The big problem is, only mages can revive people from the dead, and I couldn't very well load up my emergency save because that was an hour behind me. Back to my chilling story, my nature mage wakes up and I immediately had him cast resurrect on my combat mage. Mr Nature Mage proceeded to receive an asswhooping and he was now officially dead. It went back and forth like that for about 4 revival/resurrections. You try facing two umberhulks with 1200 life each, and two enemy mages casting two more when you're done with the existing umberhulks. It's fairly hard to stay alive like that. So nature mage revives combat mage. Combat mage revives nature mage, etc etc, all the time my ranger is knocked out, my mule is knocked out. All that's riding on the survival of the party is my character "Van WiLDer" and his dwarf buddy "Garulf" -- or whatever the Dwarf's name is. The end.

Aren't I the best at story telling? ^_^

Um... oh yeah! I think I'll start modelling for NeverWinter Nights soon. Not officially -- I could only wish. But I'll start modelling some characters I'd like to import into the game, and thus into my own modules. CaSCaDe from DungeonPlanet has already started modelling. Here's his first model, a golem of sorts. He's already got animating down, now I just need to learn it as he has.

I don't know what that just was, but BLOG was down for 10 minutes. So here I am, stuck with an unfinished template (or was anyway at the writing of this entry). Stay up for 20 minutes longer, I'd be done by now if you hadn't gone down. ARG BLOG!!! ARG!

Alrighty, I finished my model of Gir. Follow this link for the G.I.R. goodness. That's about all I've got to offer right now. Oh, that and I'll be changing my Blog some time in the next few days. A different layout of sorts, if I get around to it. Oh yeah, I borrowed "The Hobbit" from a friend, so maybe I'll get to reading that soon, too.

Oh yeah, if the above link to G.I.R. holds too little conversation for you, follow this one to the real art forum that I totally forgot about.

You need some money, honey?

Yeah, I made $50 in the last three days. $30 came from clearing trees, $20 came from the house sitting. I got DungeonSiege and I can almost cry because the game is so great. I've got Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast now, as well, so I'll have to tie DS, JK2 and MATH-HOMEWORK all together into one harmonious thing, or whatever. Um, I think that's pretty much my update. I still want to make a Captain Zim and Gir model in 3D Studio. I've also got in mind an anime robot. I don't know why, really, but I've got a hard on for cel shaded models lately. Just turning my world into a cartoon a little bit more each and every day I'm still breathing.

T'was a good few days by myself at my grandparent's place. I got some homework done for a change. I dropped by the school today, printed off more work. I'm now on Chapter 7 of 10, which is extremely good. I helped my Uncle clean out his yard of tree branches etc yesterday. 3 hours of work and $30 later we were done. Now I've got the cash to buy my concert ticket for the Sum41 concert May 6, I'll be there.

I was fairly active playing Diablo 2 for quite a few days last week. I haven't played it for about 4 nights, now. Dransik, well that's kind of "old news", seeing how I haven't played that for longer. I tried Ghost Recon, but my system seems to be a little weak in the knees when it comes to that. Low details everything and it's still running at approximately 25 frames per second. There is no FPS metre in the game diagnostics, not that I've found, but I think it's pretty common for people to develop a trained eye for FPS when it's anywhere from 5 fps to 35 fps.

I'll be getting Dungeon Siege soon enough, hopefully that won't pull me away from NeverWinter Nights, when that's released in May. Then again, maybe NwN will be too much of an epic for me and I'd prefer the hack'n'slash fun of Dungeon Siege. Who knows, yet. I know I don't know. BioWare is a talented team and I'm sure they'll deliver the goods when it comes to NwN.

I know

I haven't updated in the passed few days, mostly because nothing interesting has happened lately. I'm house sitting for my grandparents this week, so I'll be without an internet connection. Good thing is, though, that I'm bringing my computer with me, and with no interruptions (that cursed IRC) I'll be able to get some work done for a change. Ugh, yech and all those aweful reching sounds. MSN, ICQ and AIM are just as bad. I won't miss not having those, all too much.
