"Is it still me that makes you sweat?"

So, that whole writing thing I mentioned?

Totally bust.
I'm so out of practice. Are there more than three words for "sword"? (Minds OUT of the gutter! :-P)
Even with Kipesquire's help, I got nothin'. All the doorbell led to was opening the door and finding....nothing. Maybe a note taped to the door that says "Sorry, I would have stayed but the cab driver was such a hottie! I knew you'd understand! Lots of love, Your Muse." But that was about it.

So...I don't have much to talk about. I could rant, I have plenty to rant about, but for once I honestly don't feel like it.

I am excited about how my computer's CD drive randomly decided to start working today. I don't trust it though, we'll see how long this lasts. In the meantime, I reinstalled one of my time-killing devices: Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna. I have Dungeon Siege II on here still...I need some time on the magical continent of Aranna, and I haven't gotten Dungeon Siege II: Broken World yet. Don't know when I will get it, but it cannot happen soon enough. :-P
Though as much as love Dungeon Siege and the world it is set in, I have to admit...this scares the shit out of me. Game-based movies are rarely, if ever, a good idea.

How was that whole last paragraph for complete geekery?

I bet my friend Brendan's getting pissed about how often I write in this, since when he started reading it the other day I told him it would be best if he started at the beginning. At the time, it was not part of an evil plot to keep him from catching up....now though, it just might be. ;-)

In further geekiness, I've seen people talk about things they have for their blog that show them how people get there? It's kinda creepy in a sense, I suppose, but I totally want to be able to see that stuff too.

And to thrown in some more movie madness...do they know when to let these things die already? GEEZIS! It's old, let it go.

"Come on before we crack!"

So, I was supposed to go out tonight. Well, I hadn't really told anyone except myself, but still.

Unfortunately, I've been distracted, it started to rain, and now I just can't get the motivation to leave my bedroom. Except, I might go to the kitchen to eat something in a little bit.

Anyways, I was going to talk about something today, but I can no longer recall what it was. This is not a good day for me thinking-wise either, but being that I'm on vacation I can hardly not blog today, I have no excuse not to!

Today was nice. Mom woke me up (she always does, I can't stand it...I'm on vacation, it's my perogative if I want to sleep all day!) and then I had breakfast and took my grandmother out. We went to this quaint little bakery (part of chain, as it turns out) and we each bought a dessert. I got a cannoli (explaining the picture above) and she got an eccles cake (that's below) I paid, as it is her birthday tomorrow. Then she and I went grocery shopping.

As someone who works in retail, and has been having a miserable past couple of days doing so, it's quite incredible the shift in personality here. People are jerks when buying gifts, but cheery, joyful, and kind when they are shopping for food, for a celebration. It's incredible. Why can't people have that mood all of the time? Life would be so much better.

I was going to have a whole discussion on that, but I am so unmotivated to put any energy into anything right now. Ew, I hate when I feel like this. I'm gonna go on a scavenger hunt to find my motivation. I should never have let it out of its cage. :-P

A little geekery for ya...today, I canceled my subscription to The Sims Online. I haven't played it in forever, though I had the best times when I used to. No one I played with has played it in at least a year, it's been months since the last update, and there's not even a development team anymore just a development guy. Poor, lonely dev. guy. Anyways, that was very sad too, marking the end of an era, but it needed to be done.
