Calibrations

So it turns out the company that made the bigger candyhorse figure that's sitting on my desk also makes a vinyl Garrus figure.     I NEED IT

You know what'd be a great invention?

A gum that you could use instead of brushing your teeth. I don't know how you'd make it work, if it'd release something that interacts with saliva when you chew it or if you'd actually rub it against your teeth while chewing it or what, but between brushing, rinsing, and everything else, you probably use at least 5-10 minutes brushing your teeth on an average day between morning and night. Probably closer to 15 if you're thorough. It doesn't sound like much, but imagine how great those free 10 m

Synths

Ahahaha synthesizers my old friends it has been too long since I used you for more than a Hammond organ or Rhodes keyboard sound. It's wonderful to play with you again.

Be civil when debating

I am completely fine with being proven wrong.   I am completely fine admitting that someone has shown what I said to be incorrect.   I have no issues apologizing for being adamant about something that was wrong that I did/said/etc.   To be perfectly frank I’ve always felt that being honest, even if that means getting egg on your face, and admitting to your mistakes when they happen or are proven wrong, is both a much better way to maintain respect of others, and a much better and healthier menta

Your cause is great but you're not

It is a very awkward, tricky minefield to traverse when you want to tell someone you agree with their point, but hate the way they're making their argument. People would rather you hate their cause than like the cause but believe them to be counterproductive for it.

(Almost) New Years resolution

So some of you may know that ever since I had jaw surgery in 2012, I've been trying to get back healthy and in-shape, which was going well until it as dramatically derailed by a stress fracture in my right leg.   Well, about two months after getting the all-clear from the doctor with the stress fracture, my right leg is now the same size as my left leg again, so the muscle that atrophied has been replaced. Count me in for the most common, generic new years resolution of them all; Lose weight and

So I don't Christmas

But I do buy myself gifts that I should be embarrassed about owning because everything is on sale!   But yeah, Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates it. And to everyone else who doesn't, I'll see you at the movie theater!

It's like a fantasy, only it's real!

So, I just won $120 for being a pretend-coach. Awesome.   Also merry christmas to you if you celebrate it. I don't, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy it; Jewish Christmas usually involves going to see a movie, and this year probably also involves wading through all the returns in a toy store to buy myself a gift or two.

A weird realization

So it just dawned on me that, singing along in the car aside, between jaw surgery, college, and a bunch of other stuff, it has been almost three full years since I have sung, and it shows in my voice.   I don't like that. I like singing. Definitely not recording any of it for a few months until I get back into the swing of things, but I miss feeling confident about my voice.

Bleh

Of course Target is all out of everything I went there to buy on the day everything is 10% off to make up for the whole credit card thing.   I'm saying that half rhetorically, but honestly half sincerely. I should've gone earlier. Live and learn though, I can wait for the post-christmas stock to arrive.

Well this is disappointing so far

So, I started playing Arkham City.   I know I'm barely even into the game so far, but someone please tell me the gameplay gets better later on?   The cutscenes and voice acting are all outstanding - though Tara Strong as Harley Quinn does make me laugh every time, which is a shame since she really does do an outstanding job - as is the world of Arkham City. The environment and art are amazing, as is the dialog between the street thugs - one of my favorite things that so many games leave out is h

Steam Sale success. Also Bat-EULAs

CS:GO? Check. TWD: 400 Days? Check. Arkham City: GOTY edition? Check.   It was a good sale.   Also the EULA for Arkham City is insane. The first half of it is about how I don't actually own a copy of the game and it's just being licensed to me, and the second half of it is so explicit and detailed in how WB Games is not responsible for - the all-caps I should mention was their decision, not mine - "ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, LIQUIDATED, OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER

Steam sale wishlist

~The Walking Dead: 400 Days ~Batman: Arkham City ~Counter-Strike: Global Offensive   Might add stuff depending on what goes on flash sales. The odds of me having time for even these three though is slim, so this should do me fine. Fingers crossed Arkham and/or CS:GO get flash sales too, otherwise I have to buy a $50 Steam Card instead of a $20.

A very uncomfortable feeling

Ever have something completely innocuous suddenly flare up a ton of emotions relating to things you had thought you settled with, but never actually finished settling with, and suddenly you feel a lot smaller, a lot more nervous, and sad, but also kind of happy in a way because this has been in the back of your head forever, and you finally have a chance to get it out?

My life the past three weeks

The best part is I actually do wear a doofy hat like that when it's 45º or colder out. Especially if it's windy. ITS SUCH A COMFY HAT

Oh hey look

I updated my profile thingy on the right.   Also it was really weird updating it and seeing it's been three years since the last time I celebrated a birthday on here. I'm twenty now. I mean...wow, when did that happen? I don't feel that much more like an adult than I did a year or two ago. I mean I feel a lot smarter, but not mature and an adult.   Weird.
