plans for today

Well, there are only two things I have planned for today (other than my minor daily goals of things like getting out of bed — which, I have not yet done, btw). First, make max1975 my bitch. I’m worried about this one. No, not because Max might beat me… don’t be foolish. I’m worried because…

if you haven’t voted in my poll yet, I’d really appreciate it if you did. max1975 stated that maybe people are hesitant to do so because they’d want to think it through and not influence my decision if they aren’t sure. Don’t worry about that. What I’m looking for is gut reaction. Which story do…

So, although I haven’t really mentioned it in a few days, I am actually working on the comic book idea that I mentioned a while back. Right now I am working with the concept of Vagabond. She’s a pretty rare character, so let me give some backstory. Priscilla Lyons was the girlfriend of Jack Monroe,…

DAMMIT!!! I forgot that I had free movie premiere tickets for tonight. Now, I’m afraid I’ll never know Why We Had To Kill BITCH. This may go down as one of the few great regrets in my life…. or maybe not… *sigh*

played tennis against beststephi as a kind of warm up for my forthcoming annihilation of max1975. I say “kind of” because I fully intended to lose, seeing as how unlike Species Spies Boy, she’s actually better than me. As it turns out I did really well. I “won” 6-7, 6-3, 6-0. I say “won” because,…

so a while ago, sorynvala posted to about her experiences with trying to call the Pittsburgh police during an honest to God emergency and how disappointed she was with that. My 1000 words of free flowing hostility I am about to spew really don’t come anywhere near being as upsetting as hers, but it links…

Last night, beststephi, sui66iy and I played HeroClix for the first time. It was actually much more interesting than I would have thought. We played the simplest (100 point) variation of the game, but I’m curious to play it again with more points and see how it goes. Next time, maybe I’lll use slightly more…

lifted from papertygre: Your Brain Usage Profile Auditory : 37% Visual : 62% Left : 68% Right : 31% Mav, you are somewhat left-hemisphere dominant and show a preference for visual learning, although not extreme in either characteristic. You probably tend to do most things in moderation, but not always. Your left-hemisphere dominance implies that…

Weekends sort of lose some of their special toucch when you don’t have to work during the week either. Not a lot of note this weekend. After out pinballing GOD on Friday, I hung out with beststephi, sui66iy, anukul and danitapgh at Silky’s on Friday, and then eventually went to Aladdin’s for dinner. Much engaging…
