Malcador Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Come into work. There are three P1 issues to work on. It's an epic battle between apathy and stress.

Walsingham Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) Frustrated by a nameless dread of a host of pettyfogging bureaucracy that is clogging my work like dead leaves. Stood up and sky'd my office chair across the room in a magnificent display of total stupidity. I feel much better, and also understand all these anarchist rock throwers a little better. EDIT: I will also need to rewallpaper my office as I knocked a chunk out of the wall. Firther edit: if violence is the final argument of kings, then perhaps violence itself makes one feel like a king? It's been far far too long since I did any actual violence. Although naturally it's been not long enough since I had any violence done to me! Edited August 5, 2011 by Walsingham "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

Raithe Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Doing the mild snoopy happy dance for wrapping up a gathering of research. Well, at least this stage. That and pondering whether to wake the puppy up to get him running around the garden while I take a break. Firther edit: if violence is the final argument of kings, then perhaps violence itself makes one feel like a king? It's been far far too long since I did any actual violence. Although naturally it's been not long enough since I had any violence done to me! Important quotes to go with that.. If violence wasn?t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it. A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other way, shoot it in the head Your name is in the mouth of others: be sure it has teeth. Don't be afraid to be the first to resort to violence. That which does not kill you has made a tactical error. There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload.'

Raithe Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Someone's watching a string of Johnny Cash documentaries.. and I don't know if its catching some of that music in the background, but I've slid into a really depressive feeling as the afternoon has worn on... I'm trying to cheer myself up by thinking it's only about 16 days before Deus Ex is released. But then I'm bouncing back on my graphics card dying bit.. and I'm trying to limp on a little more with it before having to spend money on the replacement. It's the whole "I can kind of deal with crash outs and a few display glitches.. so until it really , truly dies....." Of course, it looks like that's going to happen any day now..but I'm nursing it along... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Malcador Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Nahh, I always wanted to be a Chaplain, rather than a Dreadnought.

Malcador Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Well, fluff-wise anyway. I suppose it'd work ok anyway, not like Librarian-Dreadnought. Should probably get a Dreadnought and paint it up. A nice relaxing day of work on Saturday, further frustration with this byzantine application, but is immensely satisfying when it works. Why has elegance found so little following?

Hurlshort Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 My booze haul from Bend Oregon was pretty modest, I picked up a couple big bottles of something called Conflux #2 that Deschutes makes seasonally, and a big jug of something from a small brewery called the Boneyard. Both are twists on Belgian Whites. We are in Redding for the night and will head home tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I didn't even have to go to Forge World for that! ;P I hoped I would've gotten to splash some colours on a Ravager today, but spent most of yesterday with an incapacitating headache, so will work instead.

LadyCrimson Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) It was nice to see the Red Sox get lucky & beat CC to win the 2nd game of the weekend series. Since I seem to be in non-gamer mode (and likely will stay that way until winter) I've been doing all kinds of little things this month (edit:the past month, I guess it's Aug. already). I'm feeling super-organized again, too, instead of half-organized. Feels good. Edited August 7, 2011 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.

Walsingham Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Have to work today to catch up on several back burner projects which have been slipping. But the weather is awful, so not much lost. had dream last night where plot mechanic was a bit like the film Memento, where someone is trying to remember, except in this case they are trying to think of a thing. The lead character was being left 'questions' in tablet form. each one contained some chemical associative stimulants to triger thoughts in a specific user's mind - taste of a specific birthday cake, for example - that would come togther to form both an unresolved missing datum and the powerful desire to solve it. I think the author if the questions was going to turn out to be some sort of Gibson AI, but I got woken up by my houseguest coughing! "It wasn't lies.
