Another week of life, and another gaming night.

Getting together with the guys for D&D can be alot of fun, even if not everyone shows up like last night. The only problem with that is that we then leave early. Seeing as normally one guy leaves at ten, but the other three players normally do one more encounter and then call it a night. When...

Not cooking sounds like a great idea. My family does the $50.00 limit on gifts, but it still gets "tres" expensive. frown

Well the weekend came and went, and once again I didn't do any of the work I brought home with me, damn you WoW! But it's so much fun so I just keep playing anyways.

Still trying to get my sleep times turned around, this is evil, and it sucks, but at least my job's flexible enough that they haven't given me much shit over...

despite d20's dogs in the vineyard suggestion for help, i'd say, if you hear of any jobs, any at all, crappy even, pleeease i beg of you to pass the info along. besides that, dogs in the vineyard is SO not what we are going to play. i want some high fantasy. not mormons!

i almost wish we had jumped in and moved for december 1st, we may have struggled for a bit, but then we would have been able to actually look for jobs in vancouver. it's difficult to do it from so far, and now that we've stayed, my 2.5 months of necessary money is almost gone thanks to crappy rent here. *sigh*
d20:
fine, i'll in the corner alone with my mormon western game and cry.

Well we did another one of those state of the office meetings last night, and I think we covered the most important things. Mostly I got to go over the financials for the last few years and look at the break even points for our current staffing levels to decide what I'm going to do next year. So it looks like I'll be taking a...

Who would have thought picking a guild tabard would be such a mess, I mean really, people threatening to quit over it. Paint me pink and slap a target on my ass, I'm running through PVP land!

yeah. well, i'm from toronto. always lived really close to downtown by subway, or right downtown so i never really needed a license. i've got my learners now at least. d20 on the other hand, he had his license, but he was in an accident and his license had expired so they took it away. because he didn't have a license, he needs to pay 1000 to icbc for damage to the other guy's car before he can drive again. it sucks a lot.

we do have somewhere to stay in town. surface, keth in WoW, has offered his place. it's right off davie.
we're not sure what to say to your generosity. it would be really awesome and we'd be able to afford to come, but then at the same time we feel bad accepting it.
i really wish d20's contracts cheque would come in. argh.

i'm coming in game now.

Just reminding you about the Vancouver Christmas Party and wow, we have 70 people attending. kiss

Well life's starting to feel a little more in control again. We're going to do another one of those "where are we going with this company?" meetings again. So hopefully that'll resolve some things at least on the work front.

Christmas coming up, still debating what to get my sister, going to have to talk to her and see what the hell she's up to...

Looks like work might be getting more stable again, which means spare cash. Who knows I might actually get everything paid off this year. We've been doing proposals on a bunch of huge contracts, some of them year long deals, so things are looking up again.

Hey thanks!
She might have been taking part in the joking 'I got it' routine that ThisAintNoPicnic started.
I thought it might be you, you said something on Angelvanilla's page that looked like you did it.

Thank you very much.

we are bascially going from Bagkok to all of lower thailand. It's smaller and since we'll only be there a month, we'll get to see more of it. I want to hit as many of the little islands as I can.

The WoW tradeskill team is now almost complete, we have:
Hethron: Mining / Smithing / Fishing / Cooking. He also seems to be coming along nicely and due to wear the hat of main character.
Hethral: Tailoring / Enchanting
Hethrael: Skinning / Leatherworking

Am I missing anything, do I need to make a warlock yet for picking flowers and making pot-pourri? Did I spell that...

I need to get some sort of stable work again so I can just buy my own house. Where I'm living is great, huge place, low rent, easy going roommate, but it's not mine. Which means I can't just do whatever I want with the place, move around furniture at a whim, let friends crash when they've had too much to drink instead of driving...

Well, the waiting que has only happened the once, and the rest of the Suicide Squad seems to be pretty cool. Up to twelth level I think with the warrior, and smithing's coming along nicely. I think I'm going to start up the hunter on that server again, just for skinning and leatherworking. After all I've got the mage still for enchanting and tailoring. Damn...

haha. no tradeskill song has blessed my ears.

the slippers are awesome. my cats hated them for the longest time. mostly when they had bells on them.

we've kind of slowed on looking for a place. mostly out of fear i think. d20 wants to have more contracts before he commits to leaving here. you know, money is good and stuff.

Well the vacation's over and it's back to work tommorow. I'm thinking I could use another couple weeks off.

Been enjoying WoW so far, for the most part it seems the most fun is just playing it like a single player game, and just chatting with everyone, meeting up for final quest fights. The one time I tried getting a whole group together to do...

Ah, today's a good day.

- World of Warcraft released, and i'm installing it right now.
- Four new Eddie Izzard DVDs at the store today, if you've never checked him out the man's funny as hell.
- My laptop arrived this morning, so I'm at the office patching everything on the super fast connection.
- Really starting to mellow out a bit, having the...

i've got half a tub of ben and jerry's half baked calling me from inside my freezer. whaddya think? shall i release it? i really have no good reason not to. hmm....
d20:
OnlyOblivion has managed to put together a pretty decent crew on Mountain - Deathwing, so the main branch of the Suicide Squad is most likely going to end up being Alliance on that realm. whenever the servers come back up, head on over there. i'm sure Posh and i will be playing well into the night.

Last day before time off, it seems so useless to be here. I know for a fact that what I'm working on right now isn't going to get finished today, so it seems like a why bother even trying thing.

On the other hand, I'm still waiting for the laptop that was supposed to be delivered yesterday, and it's due to be sent to my...

Thats a tought one I have always beena fan of giving money. It easy and you don't have top wory to much about what to get.

How do you like Halo 2? I am also playing Robotech Invasion, it no where as good but it is nostalgia from growing up, I always liked the cartoon.
swtown:
why were you the one to tell him that he did not get the job and not the HR department? it is bit of an aukward situation to put you in.

It is one of those things and i have to live with it.
