Generally I'm in...well, not the peak of health, since I'm mildly overweight and nowhere near fit...but the worst illness I've had in my entire life was one bout with the chickenpox. Sometimes I get colds, and very, very occasionally I get the flu and spend a day or two nauseous and fevery, but otherwise I am apparently immune. To make up for this, I have...

I like how anything you write about, even allergies, is well written. 
Sorry you got 'em.
Sorry you got 'em.I don't know how many of you remember Talisman, the old Games Workshop fantasy hack-n-slash boardgame. The host of the game party I go to every week has the second edition (third came out, I guess, but sounds much less interesting.) and all the expansions, including a pretty professional fan-made expansion that one of the other regulars put together based on Warhammer's chaos-related material. While...

Talking with a friend of mine from a MUCK I frequent. She's an English major and one of the funniest, sexiest people I have ever met, with an amazing command of the language. (Yes, I want her in the worst way, but I don't expect that to go anywhere IRL since she lives halfway across the continent.) What are we talking about? Well, I got...

Hi, Malkavian brother!
Newses:
The only really significant news is that my 200 gigabyte hard drive is acting up again. Data read errors, Cyclic redundancy check failures. That sort of thing. I have discovered that there is software for dealing with this sort of thing, which seems a bit strange as it's a hardware problem at the core...but what the hell, I've downloaded it and will see if...

Hah, I probably won't get the job.. as cool as it would be. 
I meet the requirements and more; I could play all the TES and Fallout games blindfolded, I'm a pretty good writer when I set my mind to it and I have experience, but... who knows, I'll just say that.

I should know better than to start reading one of Jim Butcher's Dresden Files novels at home. Oh, for the first 100 pages or so I could put it down and go do other things, and did. And then things got well and truly going and I absolutely had to know what happened next. And next thing I know five hours are gone like...

all i have to say is wow. you have me at a "run for my money" as a good debater as far as gaming goes, you look at the big picture, which frustrates me in my store as far as the casual gamer goes as i talk to them im my store, are you just a gamer or are you in the part of the indestry??? as far as selllers go?? sorry for the bad spelling i'm drunk, i would love to talk to you as im drunk it would make for a good discussion. good points for the ps2, but i honestly think the ps3 is doomed, maybe i'm wrong and honestly i hope so a monoply in any indistry is bad but we'll see what happens, good talking to you about all this pointless stuff and best of luck in you gaming!!

Hahaha!
Seriously, the picture was no big deal. It might be gone by now--it was in my pix folder and I deleted it, but it didn't disappear from the boards right away at the time--anyway, it was really not scandalous. I see swimsuits all the time in public places (in polite, modest Minnesota, no less) that cover FAR less than the shorts I was wearing in that pic.
So now you know!

So, I'm in an English Composition course this summer, much to my dismay. Oh, it's not that the class is really all that bad. As usual, I'm surprised by how much I like people on a small scale. Not masses of people, not the faceless annoyances that populate my day to day existence...but if I get to interact one on one or in a small...

Ah, I hear ya. I've been getting paid fairly well this summer, and it's all I can do to keep myself from buying half of the ridiculous shit I want to buy. I'm probably not cut out for wealth, either.
Unless it's massive wealth. I could do that pretty well, once that massive wealth is established.
Is it sick and wrong that part of me kind of misses writing papers already?

Ahhh, I see. So then I got it entirely backward--sorry about that.
It's a good way to be, what you're talking about. The money alone isn't reason enough to change it.

I really have to wonder why ignoring a member via the little hovery window takes you to their page. I mean, the point is to get their inane bullshit out of your life, and the ignore link plops you right in the middle of it. Bah.

I had to come back, read the comment I left, and think about it for a minute before I understood the antimatter orangutans.
(I'm a little tipsy; the brain's movin' slightly slow.)
Dude, don't lose hope. It can totally happen. You just have to convince SG that they need an antimatter orangutan army.

very true. Guess they to forgive the people. Not get thier innae bullshit out.
A while back I was extremely addicted to Urban Dead, which at that time was in a semi-beta stage and still receiving feature updates on a very regular basis. While simple, the simulation of survival in a zombie apocalypse (or being a terrible, flesh-eating zombie, depending) was very strong, arguably superior to any commercial game on the market. Unfortunately, eventually my zombies ran out...

I hate summer. Even when I was a kid and got off school for three months, I hated summer. I don't like the outdoors in the best of times, but when it's blazingly hot and the sun is eyekillingly bright, and there is a veritable horde of insects just waiting to devour you alive...well. No thank you. At least when I'm home there's some chance...

Things I learned from reading about the fall of Enron:
High-powered executives making millions of dollars a year have the language and computer skills of 8 year old AOL users.
The government really does throw around fucktons of money. If all the "large amounts of money" talk you hear is government-related, it doesn't seem that exciting that they're spending dozens of billions on Iraq, say....

This site makes very little sense to me as yet. It will take a lot of button pushing time that I'm not sure I have.
So...wow. I just found the best thing ever:EasyTutu. No, it's not a simplified process for selecting a ballerina outfit. It's a mod which converts the original Baldur's Gate to run in the BGII engine, with all enhancements thereof (pausing when in inventory, additional character classes, kits, higher resolutions, 3D enhancement...all those shinies). The whole thing. Including the expansion.
This is 100% awesome. I...

Yeah, I think they might still be refining that. I'm not sure. You've clarified quite a bit, though! Thanks.
Man, changing my schedule throws me for a loop. I get into this routine, and even though my actual free time is spent in wildly different ways depending on my mood...I don't know when to get to bed, or when to wake up, or when to eat, or when to hustle out the door to make sure I catch my bus. And the entire tone...
