Rukia and Sado passed their third semester of college with C's (Sado's finally a Sophomore! Way to go, Sado!), and everybody else amazingly got B's. Since Rukia and Uryuu have become fat, I bought a fancy treadmill for the dorm with their scholarship money, but nobody seems to want to use it. Ingrates. Sado still regularly talks to his volleyball ( Read more... )

The second semester and the days following its end were rather eventful. The biggest thing that happened was the expulsion of Orihime. Her grades simply weren't up to snuff. The fact that she had No skill points at all was the main problem. She suffered one aspiration failure when she allowed herself to get fat, and then she started painting her ( Read more... )

I've been playing around with Sims 2 for the past couple of days, and I created the cast of Bleach as university students. In this particular game, I'm not controlling Anything except making them claim a door and pay the bills. At first, it mostly consisted of Ichigo, Rukia, Sado, Orihime, Uryuu, and Renji and a lot of gratuitous kicky-ball ( Read more... )

I got Dad's computer fixed yesterday after lunch. This is now the second computer I have repaired with Mom's tools. I'm glad that it was just a damaged Ethernet card though, and not something more serious. My uncle tends to keep spare Ethernet cards around, but I doubt he's got spare motherboards ( Read more... )

I stayed late at work today, because the software we were using was taking an unnaturally long time to respond to our commands. Eventually, around 6pm, after half an hour on the phone with tech support, a solution was found to speed it up. The solution was to turn off the pictures. The software likes to refresh the screen every time you tell it to ( Read more... )

Last weekend a festival took place in the park across the street from me, and it was incredibly noisy, and it made going anywhere a pain. In order to go to church, I had to get two people to move their vehicles, and then I had to play dodge-the-pedestrians until I got out of my neighborhood. I'm glad that festival is only once a year. Being ( Read more... )

The Inuyasha manga is getting rather awesome. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru are having what will probably be their final fight. Hopefully they'll both survive this fight, even if their weapons don't ( Read more... )

I went to the Easter vigil mass with my grandmother and one of my sisters, and then we ate out at a fancy restaurant afterwards. This of course was accompanied by the traditional grandmotherly chaos and drama, but we love her anyway. I didn't get home from the restaurant until around 11 ( Read more... )

My Kingdom of Loathing character has finished her second Oxycore ascension, this time as a Disco Bandit. She now has shiny new plexiglass pants in her inventory! She also will now eternally enjoy the benefits of an overdeveloped sense of self-preservation. She has begun her new life as a pathless hardcore Seal Clubber. She's going to go for ( Read more... )

So far this week, I've missed work twice because of my seasonal allergies, and I'm about to miss it a third time today. I have a doctor's appointment today so I can get some drugs that actually work. Even after having taken a couple of extra-strength Tylenol, my head still hurts so much that if someone offered to behead me, I probably wouldn't ( Read more... )
