You should have bribed the presenter in order to be allowed to leave early.

Being naked helps.

Depending on the presenter.

Also, I went to see Wolverine yesterday. It was fun, if a little predictable.

Good luck, may they be in need of a Doctor Wu and not be evil.


You guys! We get to finish S&S today!

OMFG, sooooooo predictable.

I enjoyed it anyway, the Japanese was excellent. She fixed him some shabu-shabu at the house on Kyushuu! I haven't had that soup in ages! Yuuuuum! I also visited Nagasaki myself while I was there, so it was kinda cool.


A tiny-weeny bit of rain poured from the night sky and the wind keeps sounding like it could start raining anytime soon...

There would be certain benefits to rain, assuming it would lower the overall temperature instead of turning the day into steambath.


ROAR!!!

Yep, the weather here has been crazy too. Hot with thunderstorms & heavy rain fall. Then back to being sunny.

We've been teaching our two dogs, Sophie and Shadow, obedience using the "Train Your Dog with Lil Jon and the Ying Yang Twins" DVD. Let's see how it's worked out so far, ranking success from 0 to 5.

Hey, sock it sock it to me one more time! This command does nothing but baffle both of them, though Sophie occasionally jumps on us in excitement. This could loosely be construed as 'socking it to me', particularly when 'me' is male. She has great aim and has put more than one a$$ on the floor. Failure, but not absolute. (1/5)

Get low! When accompanied by fist to the floor, the dogs do in fact 'get low' with bellies (as well as a$$e$) on the floor (this works best if the fist contains food). They do not, however, follow this direction without accompanying manual signals. Partial credit. (3/5)

Stop! (oh) And wiggle with it! (yeah!): Stop! is perfect. Whenever we yell it, they immediately stop and stand still, wagging furiously. The wag gives them a hellacious wiggle. Full credit. (5/5)

Back, back, back it up! Incredibly successful. Both of them, even the dumb one, back up obediently. It's not like they turn and walk away, either. They. back. up. It's amazing. Full marks. (5/5)

Watch out! Screaming 'watch out!' at the dogs causes them to stop and look around in confusion, ears pricked, showing their high level of alertness. Seems like watching out to me. We'll give them full credit on this one, too.(5/5)

Get krunk in the club The club doesn't allow dogs so we can't try this command. I bet they'd let pit bulls in. Omitted.

WHAT!? This has the same response as watch out!. But since it's not really a command, I'm not giving them credit nor taking any away. We just like to randomly scream WHAT!? at the dogs so they know who's

I've been thinking about buying Demons' Souls on the PS3.

Also, I'm getting a haircut today. My hair's gotten a bit too long...


Light precipitation and much lower temperature than the last few weeks. Yay!

So...Space City con is this weekend.

And I...have volunteered...to run 20 hours of games.

Why yes...yes I am a masochist.

If that one guy that spent twelve FREAKIN' hours unable to talk to me at Comicpalooza last year shows up, I will not be able to avoid yelling at him, I fear.

I ran three scenarios last year, part 1, 2 and (shockingly!) 3...this same guy was at all three. Not only did he already reek across the table at the first game (and yes, it always goes downhill from there), but he literally could not speak to me the entire session. Everytime I asked him a question, he could do nothing but giggle helplessly. The only word he managed to me the entire 4 hour session was "*giggle* yeah *giggle*". ditto part 2. And part 3. I left the con early rather than volunteer to run a 5th game when I saw him walk into the gaming room that Sunday.

-_-

You could always....

Also, good morning FAWTLY Folk! Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone has a grand day!


There was an rpg/fantasy/sf convention last weekend in Kraków - Krakon - but I did not attended.

Graham Masterton's facebook post about it was less than flattering...

And I hope the wife is able to get out of the house during the day. Yesterday when she tried, the boy refused to put on pants.

Not that I blame him.

But it was awesome getting home yesterday and having him run to the door screaming "My daddy!" over and over.

At some point today, I think I shall have a meeting.

Ethics training s#cks.

Not only have I wasted an hour of my life I will never get back, I have Definitive PROOF that states in general, (And Louisiana in particular) are dumber than any individual could possibly be.

They have rules about what you can and not accept, if at all,
Then they have exceptions to those rules,
Then there are the exceptions to the exceptions.

The only way to be safe if you work for the state in ANY capacity, is to NEVER take anything from anybody, or do anything except your job.

And half the time you'll probably still get in trouble. ;P

Excuse me, I'm gonna go crawl back in my cave now. I'm sure posting on the internet violates something in the code of ethics somewhere,... ;P

We are not a nation of laws; we are a nation of lawyers. :(

Overslept. Got woken up at 8 by Dad asking if I was off work today.

Threw on clothes, grabbed stuff, and bolted. Miraculously still managed to get here before the 8:30 time clock lockdown.

I think I left part of my brain at home though. Still in the process of booting up.


I'm too shy to show my face, Thorn ;3;

But my hair is close to shoulder-length and makes the hot days even more of a pain...

Sorry, there is just right amount for us.

It could hide your face if it is shoulder long. :)


Oh, then it's not as long as I said. Then again, seems I have the wrong definition for shoulder-length then.


Cool

Morning, all. What did I miss?

Silver Crusade

I am going to a cousin's wedding this weekend.

If they did not indicate where they are registered for gifts, is it reasonable for me to just give cash? I don't like bringing non-registry gifts to people that I am not that close with, since I have no idea what they would want.

Unless they are very wealthy, I can't imagine a young couple who would not appreciate money.


Dammit. I just got a letter from electricity distributor firm about canceling the service due to late bills. Must it have been now? I had greater late bills multiple times and always paid them and there was no problem. *sigh*

Silver Crusade

:( Sorry, Drejk.


Hopefully I will be able to pay the late bills before the end of week and get the service renewed under my name (currently the contract is still on my mother).


Sorry, Drejk.


When I said I'd like some rain I did not mean a deluge while I was cycling home from downtown. (Admittedly, with the size of Trollhättan, downtown is 15 minutes of fast pedaling - not that fast pedaling is a possibility when you're short-sighted and the rain is coming down that fast - someone invent automatic windscreen-wipes for glasses, please!)


hi everyone


best of luck with thw bill, Dreijk


Gah. Silly international shipping times. I almost sent an e-mail to customer service complaining that I hadn't gotten #8 of the Pathfinder comic.

Then I remembered the July shipment hasn't arrived yet...

(So yes, it's the shipping times that are silly, not me. *rolls eyes*)

+1, you can't go wrong with money, a wedding is expensive!

you can wrap the money in some creative way (or let a professional do it) if you don't just want to hand over an envelope (we got some very cool and creative money gifts)

edit: tip from Sabine: let your boyfriend wrapp the money with floristic skills

we got money in a Weck glas (like a mason jar) rolled up like pickled herrings with pickle spices
