Hey, what do you know… I actually updated my blog template, too… boy, I’m just full of constructive energy tonight, eh?

woohoo!!! I finally made myself a new home page… It’s kinda spiff… I actually moved into the age of scripts… Everyone should go check it out here… And no complaining, or else I’ll put the smack down on ya…

seriously… what do you think?

Why does everyone wait until the moment I step out of the room, then they IM me, and then sign offline before I get back? I’ve had about 20 people do that today… well… ok.. more like 5 people do it many times.

Anyway, not much is up here… reading lord of the rings… almost done… it really picks up towards the end… Watched some movies… Let me just say that if Memento was a moo cow on an acid trip, it was but a single cow wandered from the entire herd of tripping cattle that is Mulholland Drive… Richard and I watched it twice… in a row… with David Lynch’s 10 tips for understanding Mulholland drive… and it still didn’t make sense… We end up getting online and finding a site that explained it… and it did make a bit more sense after that… but I don’t recommend looking at those until you have watched the movie at least twice

I feel I should comment on the upcoming release of Episode II… yes, I will watch it right when it comes out… and for all you who aren’t sure if you wanna go see it… Yoda has a fight scene!! I mean, come on… everyone would pay for that, right??

I got my car worked on today… I don’t know anyone left in colorado, so I just took a 3-4 mile hike while they were working on it… when I got back, they hadn’t fixed anything or even really found out why the cruise control doesn’t work (that’s why I took it in), so they didn’t charge me anything (not that I would have paid if they had), and I came back to the house… took a nap, ate a sammich, and talked to deedee… now I’m writing this… my day’s aren’t exactly eventful right now….

I think I’m gonna have to split up my role playing games this summer… If I can get ahold of mike read, I’m gonna see if he or one of his friends can run a game that caleb, chelsea, and myself can play in with him, and then I’ll run one for the crew at amanda’s… the kids really like playing with Mike, and well.. it would help the really large group problem a little… Plus, I really wanna play, dad gum it… I haven’t actually played a character in over a year… maybe I’m going through withdrawl I think it would be nice to play a Serran Tempest either that or a Scroll Master (a prestige class of my own inspired by Brian’s druid)… I guess we’ll see, huh?

So what world does everyone want to play in? A custom-build, magic-limited world, or something like forgotten realms where magic grows on trees? or birthright where everyone has some cool super-power-like ability?

which brings us to the quote and question of the week… first the quote… this was said several weeks ago, I believe by Manda, but I just thought of it now for some reason…

“He’s like that fly buzzing around your head when you’re trying to diffuse a nuclear bomb” or something like that

And the question, inspired by one of our readers: Whipped Cream or Chocolate Syrup?

I guess that could inspire a second quote of the week:

the immortal words of Chris Rock, “I prefer syrup!”

disclaimer: the above quote does not necessarily reflect the opinions of the author of this blog

Finally, finally finally finally finally… I’m done with this semester… NEVER again will I take four grad courses at one time…

sorry I don’t have much to write… I have lots to say, but considering I’ve typed 207 pages of labs, reports, and finals in the past week, my wrists hurt…

beware the over reaction… it may strike at any time from any direction….

also beware jealousy… just because your girlfriend spends 4 hours at a time on the phone with a guy, and cooks him lasagna from scratch, and stays over at his place until 1:30 in the morning, and the fact that he has a crush on her, does NOT mean she has a thing for him.. but it sure is easy to be a little paranoid when you’re 1200 miles away…

now I’m gonna go back to reading… I have nothing to do but read for two weeks… I just finished two towers, and now I have return of the king.. after that, catch 22 and interview with a vampire… beyond that I’m open to suggestions… but I refuse to read that new star wars book.. despite the fact that they got a decent writer this time (r. a. salvatore), I feel no need to know the deepest desires of the jedi as they battle… I just want to watch them be cool… they don’t talk for a reason when they’re fighting

quote for the week: “A great many open minds should be closed for repairs”.~Toledo Blade Newspaper

almost didn’t post this, but oh well…..

I’m big and long

oh yeah… on the topic of gaming… I think we’re all going to start around 7th level, just so you can start putting ideas together….

also, if anyone wants, I can just put a character together and just hand it to them (always fun for really short games, but not sure about a summer long game)

So far, we have: Mel, Richard, JP, Amanda, Caleb, and Chelsea… I can’t remember if I heard a definate from Kris, although I would imagine he’s in Also, possibly one unnamed person from Amanda, although it’s already pushing the big group limit…

Also kinda need to figure out when everyone can play… Weekends are gonna be bad for me because I’m going to be spending time with Deedee on the weekends, and half of the weekends, I won’t even be in memphis… so does anyone know of a particular weeknight which sounds good? if any?

lemme know….

I have lots of stuff to say, but no time to say it… so here’s some tests

Feldin:

Rashad:

Antara:

And yes, for the maybe one person reading this that actually remembers Antara, I have turned him into a 3rd ed character. I rolled up his stats and was most impressed… Antara is a 17th level Wizard / 3rd level Fighter. his stats are

20 str

16 dex

16 con

20 int

16 wis

16 chr

sounds about right to me

He wears +5 leather and carries a +3 flaming katana of flaming burst…. not that he needs it

And the best part is… if things go right… my party of characters here is going to run into him tomorrow I really hope they don’t try and fight him…

anyway… back to work… more later….

well, I just finished putting together an 85 page appendix to go with our 200 page paper that i have to take to kinkos in a minute to print out… while I’m waiting for an email, I took a test… I probably should study too, considering I have a test in the morning….
