So I got back from Hungary this past Sunday (I wanna go back), and I basically hit the ground running almost non-stop. One task after another. Haha.
I went to lunch with a friend of mine yesterday to talk about some stuff, and he ended up getting me a job doing data entry for another company that shares office space with his. Now that's the kind of friend everyone should have. It's not a lasting job at the moment, due to being based on a current project, but things could pick up. I wasn't eve
Don't worry; I don't want your super powers.
As said in this entry, I was planning something. For whatever reason, I never officially revealed what it was, but if you know what the entry dealt with and hang around COT, I'm sure you already noticed.
While RPGs are by no means exempt from the revival rule, I wanted to keep them all in one convenient place, so I made this. If an RPG is not on the list, it was either overlooked at some point or not approved.
As stated before, drop a PM and
I'll probably never understand why people try to break certain records that are so very pointless (and some are just nasty, such as longest fingernails). Some of these records are set by people doing stupid and often dangerous stuff; others win a bunch of awards and hold the record for having that many awards. (For things such as movies and television, it really doesn't even matter who won what award in what category in what year.) People set records that aren't even seemingly impossible to br
Gah, as a quasi-grammar freak (I'm too lazy to be a full-fledged grammar freak), there is one thing that irks me a bit (besides the obvious misuse of the word "irony," but you knew that part already).
Anyway, some reason people like to say "and yet" or "but yet" when speaking, and I've seen it in an occasional writing or two. Do people not realize that "yet" is a conjunction, in and of itself? (It's also an adverb, but that's not today's lesson.) The word "yet" has the right to be used of it
I offer no spoilers for the books you haven't read, and I tell you no secrets from the stories you haven't finished. I won't answer any questions that might have arisen in your pursuit to finish that exciting novel of mystery, nor will what I tell you help you with that dreaded reading assignment when school starts. I won't give you any clues to solve or a solution to some elaborate, profound puzzle, nor will I expand your knowledge of the unknown.
After all, what I'm about to tell you is co
Wow, my own blog, I feel so special... until I realize I'm not the only one who can do this. I feel less special, or do I? And "blog," what's up with that name? It's short for "weblog," so two letters have been cut off. Did we learn nothing from basic grammar; shouldn't it have an apostrophe at the beginning if that's the case. It might look pretty silly though, so why don't we call it what it really is... a "wog"? Of course, Elmer Fudd might want his speech pwoblem back.
You just know the m
Okay, for some reason, "Net Speak" has become so prominent and so confusing, that it (like the English language) is often incorrect what one person is saying and another is understanding. We use acronyms and initials for everything from video games to music to television shows (MP3, anyone?); what it should really be called is "Lazy Man's Conversation."
While there are a few acronyms that are so unique they can only stand for one group of words, there are also a lot of other acronyms that can
Remember this and this.
(Man, that's terrible photo quality... lousy 3 mega pixels.)
I still stand by it... I hate awards shows. Like I'll care or remember who won what and for what and how great they did. My life doesn't revolve around celebrities... it revolves around the sun.
But wasn't that a great moment when that awesome event happened during that one point? I'll always remember how it went. Yeah, it rocked like a concert.
Speaking of memory, I wonder if elephants can get amnesia
Today, my dad turns 60. We did the real celebrating on Saturday with a surprise party, which was so much fun (party was okay, but surprising him was fun). I got to see family members that I don't get to see or talk to often, and a good time was had by all... except for that slide show snafu.
Today's "festivities" are pretty much just a family thing, but I don't hate doing things with just my immediate family.
Speaking of my family, we celebrate some milestone-esque years: dad turns 60,
