I am sick of my digital camera going missing.

It's missing. AGAIN.

I blame shitty cargo pants that can't keep ANYTHING Inside.

So... fuck. I hope it turns up. I give up looking around for it. I"m expecting it to be around the house, but it's not like I haven't looked already.

Sigh. Sigh sigh sigh sigh.


EDIT:
Guess what? Also, apparently I have deleted a lot of old roms and saves.
NO Idea how I did something so stupid.

I'm just collecting ALL My fuckups in one day. Great.

I'm getting absolutely sick about how FireFox 3 keeps closing on me. There's one hell of a memory leak, and it gets worse the longer I use it or flash videos inside of it.

Getting really sick of it..

Plato's Symposium

Man, I had no idea how bisexual the Greeks were. Near the end, Alcibiades comes in and is like, "I totally came on to Socrates and he didn't take advantage of me! And I can't do a thing to him because everybody loves this smooth-talking motherfucker!" Spoiler alert: Alcibiades is a man. Also spoiler alert: He says this in front of Agathon and everybody else in this room, in an attempt to make Agathon doubt Socrates-- another man couple.

Pretty interesting though, that the end to a discourse in love ends with an 'example' of doing things in the name of love.

Huh.. pretty interesting.


Anyways, tomorrow I go to see a head hunter/job recruiter. I wonder what he has to say.. I'm not above advice, but I do not like being controlled.. he also didn't reply to my e-mail this weekend.

Hum. I bet I should print out a copy of my resume to bring. He didn't ask, but I hate being 'unprofessional'. Hum. I don't want to use the printer, either.

Bah. Oh well.

I forget when exactly, but a bit ago, I remember looking at myself in a mirror and realizing that .. I think my right eye is a bit higher up in my head than my left..

You can't imagine this amount of shock this was to me. All of a sudden I felt completely disjointed, like sleepless nights had taken their toll on my face.

I still can't justify or guarantee it's true, but it bugged me.

Did you know that Borderlands currently doesn't support the Steam community?

Yes, you can't just hit 'join game' to play with a friend.

Absolute horseshit.

Edit:
More borderlands problems:

Was gaming, my character got deleted because the game froze. I don't know why, but it's horseshit.

So, somebody i was watching on uStream finally pulled out a request for people to go play Smash Bros Wii versus them.

So, I pull out my Wii, try to hook it up to my TV, and there's a lot of 'arg' going on..
A: My TV only has Component video OR HDMI, and the one that comes with the wii is Video audio L and Audio R.. so I gotta get more cables. D:
B: My Wii refused to play Brawl, OR Okami. I figured it was because the discs were used, and Gamecube and the original Wii Sports played fine. I put my Brawl through the disc cleaner, but read up about how some consoles have issues reading dual-layer DVDs .... Meaning I just screwed up my Brawl DVD for nothing. So I'm goign to ship the Wii out to Nintendo (thank goodness they'll cover it), and we'll see if it's the disc's fault, or the Wii's..

Oh well. Guess I can't join the party this time.

I at least got my consoles set up, so I don't feel so bad if I want to game -- they're not across the room, anymore!

Today was exhausting. I went to a furry meet at Porter Square, but that was fun. Drank a bit, talked a lot, took some pictures, and I can't wait to go to the next one. :3 Makes meeting people locally a lot easier, to be honest..

Also exhausted. Getting like, 3/4 hours from last night would do that to you. (about 5:00 AM to 9:00 AM.)

Worked a bit more on the resume-- I officially started work on the final PDF, but I have to finish it tonight, I think.. just because I don't think I'm going to wake up in time to send it off tomorrow.

Let's just say that if I wake up tomorrow morning and everybody in this house is fine, and everything's still where I Left it... I"ll be immensely grateful.

I don't know if I can make that fur meet, but I"m doing to damn well try. It's going to be in less than 9 hours, though.. waht the hell.

Well, life doesn't set its schedule around me, I suppose.

Let's hope I have a good night and all ends well.. *crosses fingers*

I DARE YOU TO FIND A BETTER REMIX OF ANY SONG THAN THIS REMIX IS:





(HIT THE HIGH QUALITY BUTTON. No matter how I tried, Youtube is poop. And won't do high-quality embeds for this.)

It's a tough challenge.

How did I become an overwhelming fan of a single-payer health care system?

Just got a bill in the mail from my eye doctor (optometrist). Bill is $175 for ONE eye exam. Wait, why am I getting billed? I should be getting one appointment per year!
Apparently, I must've been at least a day or few before the end of a 'technical year', because my Insurance says, "Max number of visits already paid".. EVEN THOUGH I ONLY WENT LAST YEAR.

So yes, my insurance (Blue Cross, blue Shield) are made up of douchebags who count DAYS to avoid paying me money.

So now I have to pay $175 for something idiotic: poor appointment planning.

I don't care if I"d have to wait an extra month. At least it's free, and at least I don't have a fucker saying I hvae to pay because they're counting the days. It's a whole year. It's a WHOLE YEAR, douchebags.

Awesome for DDRing.  Meet my shoes!

Vibram Five-Fingers have helped my DDR fatigue almost dissipate. The following pictures are from the third time I played in them, completing a DDR Supernova stage. I haven't played in 3 months, so I SHOULD be out of shape, and I SHOULD be getting leg fatigue.. but I wasn't. So, a bit about me. I heard about these from Dylan a Wired.com, as well as from a Google Ad while checking my Gmail. I was afraid that they'd hurt my feet, but not so.



7825520 on Supernova ONI
WHAT a score My feet didn't hurt, my legs feel fine! I normally practice DDRing for a long time-- three credits. Normally, I'd be exhausted halfway into my DDR Oni mode. however, not this time. I was shocked-- the KSOs still felt great. My feet didn't feel sweaty at all.

My score on the left isn't great, but what can I do? bah humbug. Anyways, I plan on wearing these to as many DDR workout sessions as possible.



Final picture: Woburn skyline!


From the Bowladrome/municipal parking!

I was watching someone play Left 4 Dead (Zombies Vs Humans) on youtube a few months ago.

So, I looked up more gameplay videos about Left4Dead. Heres' what matters:

I saw a video about two teams, one team of survivors, and a small team of zombies. The goal of the survivors is to escape the house (in this case, a big mansion) by activating all the things in the house and getting a key to the front door.
THe problem is that each time a zombie kills a survivor, the player can only then spawn as a zmobie on the zombie team.

Ergo, each death would snowball towards a loss for the survivors. It looked like a lot of fun, but I can't find it for the life of me.

Do any of you know what I"m talking about? :(

EDIT:
Zombie Panic!! :D
