Forgot ... a speedboat would be more my thing vs. a sports car. I would love a large speed boat. I'd probably have to move to Miami or similar, however. Also: For some reason, I found this really funny, probably because I've known the feeling. You can never tell in those type of situations tho. It's possible she was just thinking about you and wondering how you were. A year can mellow.

That sounds familiar. Time goes faster and faster every year, and every new experience becomes old-hat faster and faster every year. Or worse, even if it's an experience I've never done before, it still feels "the same as anything else". Dance is dance, travel is travel, food is food, etc regardless of whether it's a new dance/location/food or not, that sort of thing. eg, doesn't provoke much of a response. Oh well. Such is life, full of its little phases. At least there's my hubs, and my cat. Maybe I should change kitty's name from Mr. Black to Toothless. It's the eyes.

NW:Online - I'm going to kind of miss the Mid-Summer Festival. More for the casual atmosphere then the event/items. People hanging around, picking flowers, killing EZ trolls together and then "standing around" chatting a bit. Not to mention all the funny pig-mount dance parties. For someone like me who doesn't like dungeons/raids, a place besides "town" with that sort of casualness to it is kinda cool. I make so many AD from Leadership now. It's silly. 10 is my limit tho...starting to take too long to pray/cycle through all their tasks 2-4 times a day, even with the Gateway.

I gave up on Under the Dome after about 4 or 5 episodes I think. I couldn't take anymore of that dufus "evil" idiot son chr. or the teen's story arcs in general. Dean Norris was the only reason to watch, imo.

I'm pretty sure I know what plain old boredom feels like...I've battled that mental attitude constantly since I was six. I really have no clue what "mid life crisis" is supposed to officially be defined as, versus "boredom"...to me the former is kind of a meaningless phrase people parrot because everyone else does. I'm not moping about regrets or remorse for the past ... I just feel old and used up. Closer to the end than the beginning. It's depressing. Stuff like arthritis doesn't help I suppose. Meh, I'll work it out.

Pet sim continues. I now own Bambi. Or perhaps a 2nd cousin of Bambi.

Not often at this point, no. It's been a long time since I had a full-time job/hours and even when I had one, the schedules were very flexible because I never did 9-5 work and have done freelance stuff since I was 24-25 or so (my schedule was what I wanted it to be). I don't think that has anything to do with it tho. I think it's more likely from moving back to live in a place I don't really like that much. It was necessary (moving) and it's working well in some ways, but ... blah. Sometimes one just gets tired of feeling like everything you do is a repeat, after a few decades or more I guess. Maybe I should get a pilot's license and a small plane. A mixed mongrel type of kitty or a particular breed? There's a few breeds where I've always wanted to get one, but I never want to pay the giant breeder fee so...
-
I didn't even know there was a TV series until recently. It's not on Netflix or my cable On-Demand. I'd really like to try it. I get the Cartoon Network and I think it comes on Thurs. evenings (2nd season I guess?). I'll try to remember to tune in.
-
I think I'm having a mid-life crisis ... whatever that is. The point where everything you used to like/spend all your time on has become supremely uninteresting/no longer motivates and you can't seem to find anything to replace it. Which = total mental/emotional drag...the "no point" fudge. Taking breaks doesn't help revive interest anymore. I don't mean just gaming either. Pretty much everything. Reading, general media, writing, photography, camping, hiking, driving, films, "nightlife", etc. Except cats. Cats are still not boring.
-
I still have mixed feelings about the show as a whole. 1st and 2nd season were decent but for me, there isn't a single character that I actually like or remotely want to root for, including Dexter. They're just all unlikable chrs. (except maybe Batista). And yeah, the last 2 seasons have been pretty eye-rolling in some ways. Yet if I start to watch, it does have the "well now I have to see the next episode" feeling. Like rubber-necking a train wreck or something. But it's not/never has been a fave show of mine. Still, every season/episode was on our cable VoD (no extra cost) so we've been marathon watching. After last night, only 1 episode (I think) left in the series, so may as well see it through. The guy playing the Brain Surgeon is kind of a hoot. Great psycho eyeball-stare in an otherwise total geek-look.

Yeah, that's what's it's like with Comcast. At least there's no monthly limit with their Business Class and 98% of the time it's been really consistent/predictable/stable. It's that 2% that makes you want to pull your hair out now and then.
-
*Breaking Bad episode ends* *silence* ....holy bleepitybleepitybleep. That was intense. I'm going to need time to process that. I might recover by the time Dexter comes on....

Dang you, Walsh, stop using words that require me to Google to make sure I understand properly and expand my knowledge! "Mozzie" for mosquito....never heard that one before.

Keyrock's Hopefully Attractive Rodent Thread

So? Doesn't mean they aren't cute. ...in some parts of the world, feral kitty cats are major pests too. Some bunnies. Some fish. etc. It happens. -
Just for the record, I'm aware of the film Serenity (I saw it before I saw the series, and I own the DVD). I was largely being facetious with my previous Abrams comment....

Forums don't use html ( < and > tags), so yeah, won't work properly.

Sorry, didn't notice this until just now. Congrats on the lvl 20 Leadership! Heh. In chat someone else and I were talking about how long it takes, with others going "You're wrong, it doesn't take long, I've gotten mine to level 11/12 in not too much time." To which I and the other person started laughing. I like that they have a "Refine rough AD" button on the Gateway now. Seems to work well, so I finally feel "safe" completing tasks that give AD rewards via the website. Much easier, especially since I now run so many of those. Wish they'd let you view your bank stash there too, as well as your backpack inventory. Ah well, nothing's perfect.

Those faces still look terrible to me. Altho it's not so much that they're "ugly" so much as the expressions and vacant stares are oddly disturbing...
-
Maybe in a few more years they'll "reboot" it as a JJ Abrams movie....

Occasionally I read this thread and think to myself: "Everything I know about how guys really feel about dating, I learned from this forum." Caught up on Dexter ... guess the next episode is tomorrow night. So Breaking Bad, then Dexter. Both ending their series runs. And it wouldn't surprise me if neither has very "happy" endings. A little gaming time, now, then snoozing.

Boyz N the Hood. Still awesome.

Yeah, I have no idea how much Firefly cost....didn't look like a high budget show ala ST:TNG at its height. Mostly in Firefly's case it seems more an issue of not finding an audience until too late. I didn't watch it when it was actually on ... didn't even know it existed.
-
I really really want to ask the neighbors if they'd give up one of their many kittens. But since I already have a beloved cat, it's too risky if there's a chance the kittens have one of those bad diseases. So I just pet them a lot when I'm outside (and wash hands/change clothes before going back inside). I'm usually ok with resisting such temptation but having just lost Mr. Grey it's tougher. Why do kittens have to be soooo cute.
-
A year already? ... *looks in a mirror* ...yup. Can't believe it's been that long ... which is good, because it means I've successfully distracted myself away from the wait.

I don't find that "seapig" cute at all. At least not in that pic. Ick.
