Superstition holds that how you spend your birthday predicts how you will spend the year that follows. Last year I spent my birthday coding in a robot lab, and as it happens, superstition nailed that one. This year I'd like to spend some part of the day having sex. Most of it, for choice. I'm quite certain that robots will take up whatever time is...

Tons of Serenity links on my Sept 26 post... 
Handful of cool events for the day:
- Confirmed that my first print published article is going out a month ahead of schedule.
- Climbed my first route, to completion.
- Given a gloriously cheesy homebrew kit "Mr. Beer" by an old friend.

You will be missed.

GL my friend.
My first print magazine article has been accepted for publication. Previously, it's all been web based magazines. Somehow it feels more real knowing that trees are going to die for my writing career.
Dungeon magazine, issue 130 (January 2006).
The current title is "Within the Circle".
Go me.
P.S. Thanks to Faust for playing editor!

I don't know... I seem to be a strange attractor for ill people and perfect lesbians. Just my luck. Go figure.
I've just seen 'Alone in the Dark'.
You must see this movie.
I haven't laughed so hard in a horror film since Evil Dead III.
Bring friends who are good to MST3k with.
Being tipsy might not hurt, but we got by just fine stone cold sober.
And Stephen, if you read this, you MUST get yourself a part in the sequel. It would be...

Ah, exactly the comparison I was curious about. 
witchbaby83:
Army of Darkness is too uber to compare to Alone in the Dark. I mean, c'mon, Bruce Campbell or Tara Reid? Who would you feel safer with?
I had never had vodka before a few moments ago.
I have to say, that tastes exactly like rubbing alcohol smells, only less so.
Verdict: I don't like vodka.
I started installing Half Life 2 some time back.
First, it installed the steam installer.
Then it read each of the 5 CDs in sequence.
Then it downloaded some extra stuff off the net that hadn't...

I was never heavily into gaming. There were a few games I would load up to play with friends (Q2, and later Q3A), and I have a couple of RPGs and older sims like Roller Coaster Tycoon II laying around, but that's about it.
Even with those, the game I end up playing most is Nethack.

oh dear. the trick is mixing the vodka with the right stuff. shots of it are just gross. most alcohol is gross straight, i think. mix mix mix.
xox.

Rats. People are spotting these too quickly. I meant for them to be surprises at later dates.
