I keep forgetting Thanksgiving is today, mainly because turkey dinner was yesterday. Not going to bother with a list of things I'm thankful for, because it'll be mostly petty crap ( Read more... )

I have no idea why I agree to go get dinner when the kids come along. It always ends in headache. Always ( Read more... )

Glad to see Bungie has a sense of humor. One of their staff was on my team while someone was going "OH COME ON HE'S A HACKER I SHOT HIM FIFTEEN TIMES AND HE DIDN'T DIE" and, during the next game, everyone who was still playing blamed everything on hackers. Said staff was the best at it. HEY THE GRENADES AREN'T HERE SOME HACKER MUST'VE TAKEN THEM ( Read more... )

Holy god Reach. So Firefight is a mode best for four people. In other words, it is designed around multiplayer. I went in with four people. Three of them were gone when the game started. It was me versus a multiplayer-designed army.

And I killed all the fuckers. "All the fuckers?" I hear hotandcoldrp ask. Yes, all the fuckers. It was an intense 115 alien ( Read more... )

It's starting to really get on my nerves that the only time the network slows down is when I decide to play Reach online. It has to be someone doing memory-intensive crap, but I'm not sure who or what to blame. I think everyone should be out of the house around 6:00 tomorrow, so I'm going to test my theory then. Get online, play a few matches, see ( Read more... )

So I got moved to a new office. It's more roomy, there's a nicer chair, I'm right next to the window, and there's two fans that cover me when we need to turn them on. I still want to leave. The co-worker, on the other hand, is the reason I want to leave. Perhaps I'm judging too quickly, but it sets off a warning when he names his kid Anakin.

Was able to end my stress today by finishing my project on schedule! Or ahead of schedule. It was supposed to be done before the end of the month, but I don't think anyone would begrudge me the extra day if I needed it. My sister is ecstatic because even as a student who doesn't know too much, I still stuck to my schedule and refused to ask for ( Read more... )

So today, I saw a notebook off the side of the road. It was black and wedged inbetween two rocks. Basically, you just had to go a bit off the road and you'd see it, plain as day, sticking up and stuck there. My first thought: That is totally a fetch quest item ( Read more... )

So somebody thought there was a snake at work.

They could hear a very distinctive hissing that would just come and go. Of course, I never heard it; I have headphones on all the time. So the other person is freaking out that she's hearing this sound that I'm not.

Until it turns out that the snake goes ssssssssssfffFINALLY. I was making a sound at ( Read more... )
