On the last day of school afore spring break I mentioned to Tiny T-Rex "Now you can sleep in if you want to!" "Oh no, I'm waking up early every day!"

My BF asked me to join him and his guild on a PVP server. I'm sure you know how I feel about PVP. Wow I feel is too much into number crunching and I have slower reflexes then the average person and also my motor control isn't that good....which translates into less dps.

... There is a song about that too...

Summer Time is here. I baited myself into a few whole-night with Stellaris. I just messed my already borked internal clock even more.

I got up at 4 pm... Again.

So, the big question is: Does that count as "early" for him?

You see the issue is for lore reading - I feel bad if the rest of the group goes to fight the boss without me...and since I'm the cleric...yeah that works out SO well...

But yeah I feel bad to lore read too.

PVP requires specific PVP items, which unless you farm, you wont' get. And PVP items cater to different stuff to PVE and generally isn't any good for that.

The last time I was trying to grind infernal faction at a demon attack, yeah the moment I landed u get alliance idiots ganking you.

Next time I want faction I just hang in the air, so high they can't do anything to me. People can be idiots. I'm just trying to help with a demon invasion and you're taking the opportunity to gank?

Not really, no.

Still disturbed at seeing you as Trig!

But yeah, my manager has known me long enough that even SHE knows that if I have a hardcore project that keeps me heads-down for 4-6 weeks, then the moment the project ends I'm going to suddenly come down with something.

It's bad enough that if we didn't know each other so well she'd accuse me of faking it, but I've missed quite a few trips over the years because I managed to get sick the day before vacation.

Well, here you go:

Hey! Scint's immune system! Shape up and fight back! There's a cookie in it for you!

That's me at the end of June. After going Jan-June with nearly nary a break.

Every. Single. Year. :P


To me, being in that consistent of a pattern, which, you know, we, too, follow, tends to indicate that there is a correlation, and perhaps even a causation between those two things…

What I’m suggesting, is that white possibly it’s work-related-stress that lowers our immune system’s.

Okay you got me there. If I'd known how much time I'd sink into that stupid game from the start I would probably have rolled Alliance too.

More seriously, did they like the first one?

Most importantly of all, did they understand the significance of Coyote Tango?

OK. This is just getting more and more disturbing.

Impus Major didn't order his costume in time, so it arrives Wednesday. The whole group voted to postpone their trip until Impus could come in costume.

So, having time and being disturbed, Impus Major mocked up a pair of flyers: One "real" suicide hotline flyer that provides real information and statistics (though I think the noose is a bit much, and told him so), and one "gnomicide" hotline flyer that's identical except all the depressed-looking silhouettes are wearing little gnome hats.

I'd worry about him getting beaten up for pulling such a stunt, but I just don't see a lot of hair-trigger people going to see Sherlock Gnome.

Go figure.

EDIT: What's impressive is the "real" one. It's not tongue-in-cheek at all. You could see a government agency handing them out to try to reduce the suicide rate. He wanted to get "official" ones, but apparently they don't exist. The boy may have a future in Marketing... which is even scarier.

I'm not a particular fan of warm weather, but after 2 weeks of on-again, off-again rain clearing out the atmosphere and feeding the plants, a nice 65-degree day with a deep, deep blue sky, a gentle breeze, and all the windows open is just nice.

Too bad it's supposed to go up into the 70's tomorrow.

...aaaaand our kick-butt roofer FINALLY called back, almost 3 weeks after I started harassing him! He's coming out on Thursday to tell me how much my roof sucks.

Should be a fun conversation:
Roofer: Yeah, it looks like this whole roof is rotten.
NobodysHome: Yep.
Roofer: That's going to be really expensive.
NH: Yep.
Roofer: You sure you want to do all that?
NH: Yep. Oh, and how much extra to add solar on top of all that?

I want to see whether I can give my roofer a heart attack.

And you're telling me this because, in spite of the fact that I am ruefully reporting on him going to see Sherlock Gnome in costume, and have mentioned that he doesn't care for Rivoli, I couldn' t possibly know this yet...

I played Horde because my BF is horde. I honestly don't do late nights, so raiding is kinda out for me and don't have the patience to wait for everyone to be ready and raid etc.

Besides when it comes to MMORPGs I'm more of the sit around and smell the roses type, so I find all those dps measurements and all meh. Too competitive for me. Not my thing. Besides if you start yelling at me for not doing XYZ dps I'll get pissed, because I am trying, but probably not doing a good job about it.

I did complain to my BF horde was like so big and clunky and not kawaii...then rolled a Pandaren Priest. Because PP =P

About Wow fashion - generally I just wear whatever gear is best, but Wow has something called transmog. And somehow I ended up wearing something transmog into like a two piece outfit, which made me like... Uh aren't I showing too much belly?

One thing is that gear in Wow tends to look better on the humanoids then the non humanoids. Like bloodelves can look seriously good.

I would go solar if I didn't have to cut down all of the trees in my yard. And if the conservation department wouldn't pitch a fit. One of those tree is protected, much to the city's continued annoyance. The protected tree likes to drop branches in the middle of the road.

Maybe you could put the panels in an area of your backyard that isn't obstructed by trees, and run the cable to the distribution system.

Well, the kids keep us at a pretty consistent 15 kWH/day year-round, so solar won't cover all of it, but it'll cut costs by a bit. The nice part'll be when the earthquake kills all the power. "What'll we eat?!?!?"

"Meh. Whatever's in the fridge..."

EDIT: I was always proud when in Davis in the summer I could keep us at 6.2 kWH/day when everyone else was running their air conditioners and crying at the bills...
