metadigital Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Yeah, I'm not looking forward to trying to remember all the names of the satellites: there are over 60, IIRC.

Xard Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Canadians suck I had something witty to say in response to this, but then I realized what you were talking about. Instead I shall simply say: Hah!

LadyCrimson Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 We're getting my sister-in-laws kittens a bit sooner than we'd thought. So tonight I shall be sleeping with cute and rascally small kitties. And a lot of Claritin. :( And I'm worried about Misty. I've noticed she's lost some weight recently - she's not even close to fat anymore. It wasn't immediately noticable because of all her fur. I'm hoping it's because she doesn't like the kitty kibble I switched to after the pet food scare, which would then be a good thing (not being piggy-fat) but she's gettin' old so probably a vet-check for her ... “Things are as they are.

Walsingham Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Rodents reported in all flats in building. Send reinforcements. This is going to end with Walsh going crazy and eating someone I bet. It is going to end with me going nuts with a sledgehammer and tearing my ceiling apart. At least I would have revenge on the bastards that are in there at present.

Sand Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 When I was a kid I once saw a rat the size of a large raccoon. Then again it could have been just a large raccoon. It was climbing and digging its way up into the bathroom. I never heard my mother scream so loud in my life... ...except when I was going head on with a semi on icy roads in Minnesota. She didn't ride with me after that.

Fenghuang Posted May 16, 2007 Author Posted May 16, 2007 Today has been pretty freakin' sweet so far. I got up, came to work, and then spent half of my workday attending GTC. Saw Woz's keynote presentation, and picked up a whole bunch of swag on the vendor floor. Also learned about a couple interesting new products. RIP

Gorth Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I saw an Uwe Boll movie... Stuck in hotel room late at night (and I couldn't be bothered to do any more work), it was either "Bloodrayne" or some generic adult movie. I should have gone for the xxx one, at least the acting, directing, story, camera, lighting, plot and music would have been better “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

A porn movie is far better than anything Boll could ever do. I woke up early because the cats were racing around on the bed. Stupid animals. I think they are due for a bath today. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

SteveThaiBinh Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Today is a good day. I am now on holiday and do not need to worry about students who complain because they got a B instead of an A or think their speaking skill would improve more quickly if I talked at them non-stop for two hours every day. Instead, my main concern now is whether I play NWN2 as a sorceror or a cleric this time. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
Deraldin Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I awoke a 6am this morning on the couch. I don't recall falling asleep nor ever lying down on the couch so I have no idea how I got there. Spent 10 minutes cleaning up the room before the maid came today. I still think it's stupid that I have to clean up before the person who is paid to clean up gets here. Went and slept for another 5ish hours in my own bed this time. Got up again and ransacked the kitchen looking for something edible to eat. Didn't find much, but managed to find some stuff to make a sandwich with. Unsure what to do now. *looks bored*
taks Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I would agree. A porn movie is far better than anything Boll could ever do. heck, some porn flicks actually have PLOT!!! I woke up early because the cats were racing around on the bed. Stupid animals. I think they are due for a bath today. mine come in and start whining every morning now that i'm the first one up. they know i'm the one that puts food in their bowl. the boy got himself a bath a day or two ago and he's been pretty bent out of shape over the matter. fat slob that one is. taks comrade taks... just because.
Daaave Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Me and my friend randomly bought ourselves a baby albino hamster today. It's well cute. Only 2 weeks old :D Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy. Squid suck.

At least when you're stuffing envelopes you can listen to the radio. This fact leads me to the not-entirely-surprising conclusion that your career involves some kind of large-scale blackmail operation. Nice work if you can get it, I guess.
