An Update!

So I couldn't come up with a snazzy title, so sue me.... Please don't. After that exclamation point thing I've already got a few suits on me and in this heat it’s unbearable. You ask why don't I just take them off, well then I have two responses for you: 1) It's the law, I can't and 2) I have to keep myself modest.

So what have I been up to? Well this weekend I got together with some friends on Saturday and then went and saw A Scanner Darkly on Saturday with Zac and Paul. It was pretty good and enjoyable but nothing spectacular. Other than that most of my free time went to Champions of Norrath which is a pretty amazing game. If only they made more RPG's 4 player! Oh well. I've been pretty productive at work today if I do say so myself ( I JUST DID!!!!) and I even got a chance to shoot the breeze a little with my boss today about some politics stuff. Considering how incredibly awkward I am in all social situations, I was glad to have a good conversation with him. I really like my boss and I hope he likes me but it's hard to tell sometimes. Oh well! So I also have been working on Rexum and am planning a new update and have even been throwing around an idea for a new little story to break the monotony of the whole Risenno thing. So I guess that's it for now. See you next time.

Well it's the middle of the week!!!!

Those exclamation points were completely unnecessary. I'm sorry. I would like to extend my greatest apologies for all of you that are terrified of exclamation points. I am often quite insensitive about my exclamatory usage so please forgive me and I will do my best to prevent future offenses.

I Didn't Piss Anyone Off?!

I was really hoping I would get someone riled up with that last post, at least enough to leave a comment if not a flaming epithet. Oh well. In other news, what am I up to today? Well not too much. I went to work and came home and watched less than an hour of TV while I ate dinner. Then I got to work on my Rexum story and before I knew it I was writing this blog! I just had to after I stopped by Michael's blog and found out that there is a DRAGONLANCE MOVIE COMING OUT!!! As evidenced by my use of caps and three, count 'em, three exclamation points. Even though it is only animated, I am very happy about it. Especially since I think the director is the same one as from the 90's X-men cartoon I watched as a kid that was very faithful to the comics which I hope means a faithful translation of the book to the big screen. So I know where I'll be Autumn 2007, Watching Dragon's of Autumn Twilight.... teehee

What was I doing today? PLUS: Some Incendiary Comments

So I went to work today and my boss was away at Apache point and ironcially enough I had one of my most productive days because I had a couple of break throughs. Oh well. I also went to an ergonomics class that was a lot more interesting than I thought it was going to be. I actually enjoyed it. I then went home and watched about half an hour of tv while I made/ate dinner to unwind a little bit before I got to work on my Rexum story. What I worked on isn't up to snuff yet so it probably won't be posted until tomorrow at the earliest. That took a couple of hours cuz I got a little stuck. Then I helped Clarence with some Math stuff and before I knew it it was 9 o'clock and I was calling home to see what everyone was up to. Not much exciting except something to do with captain crunch.

So this weekend, my brother had a birthday party which as always is a lot of fun. Everyone came over and it just seemed like I didn't have enought time to spend with everyone, that always happens when you have such a great family! So during the party Paul passed around a birthday card which I feel I need to address in this blog. It seemed to promote a theory that perhaps I am a robot, which to anyone who has performed surgery on me knows is false. Also there was some mention of a giant apricot and some other things I don't care to mention... So I guess that's all except for the fact that Zinedine Zidane in a complete act of classlessness headbutted an Italian defender because he called his sister a whore [translation of lipreading from Globo], which is bad but come on the job of the defender is to get in his head. Whatever, the French played like a bunch of goons and the only goals they scored in the last two games were penalty kicks that were the results of bad calls from refs not recognizing dives. By the way, diving in soccer is CHEATING! no matter who does it Portuguese, Dutch, French, or English. It's all cheating. Although Portugal has gotten a bit of a bad rap lately due to French PR who tried to condition people to believe that they were a bunch of divers but to be honest let me give a quick recap of who dove the most. It's really just a few key players who should have their names in infamy as the cheaters they are: Henry, Zidane, Podolski, Christiano Ronaldo (although only about half as much as people like to think he does and by the way he is on my team and I recognize this). I would like to interject in here the entire Dutch team which played the most brutal soccer this cup has seen. They knew they couldn't outplay Portugal so they just played the ugliest and by far dirtiest soccer I've ever seen with everything from trying to injure Cristiano Ronaldo from minute one, to refusing to play by fair play rules when a Portuguese player was injured. In my humble opinion they should be forbidden from the next world cup as a disciplinary measure for their atrocious behavior in the cup. Also as far as disciplinary measures, Zidane should be stripped of his Golden Ball from this cup and I hope that in fact if the refs didnt see that call, the stadium showed it on the big screen(even though they weren't supposed to). I also think the French coach is the biggest jack ass in the entire cup who can kiss my astrology disbelieving ass. Oh well, that's my tirade for now because I have to go to sleep but as a quick recap: the French and Dutch should be forbidden from the next cup! Note these comments say nothing of the French or Dutch people only of the horrific performance of their players both on and off the field since both teams had players speaking far more inflammatory comments than any in this post. I hope I didn't upset any of you Dutch fans out there since I know a few read this, but that's just how I saw it. Also keep in mind, my opinion is meaningless and has no effect on anything and by now I've already put the cup behind me. I'm just glad that Zidane tarnished his reputation and that he didn't get by with people being mistaken that he was a gentleman. I needed at least one good World Cup rant.

Sorry for the lack of updates

A combination of work, world cup, and video games have kept me from updating for a little while so I'm just making a quick update to let you know that everything is going well and not much else is new. I'll talk more about the world cup later. I'm tired of typing cuz I was working for 8 hours and then I was working on my Rexum stuff (and it came out quite poorly I might add... sigh...) oh well I'll probably go back and fix it up.
