The Good
So, I'm tying to ride this birthday high for as long as I can...Whoring myself to my new gadgets.
I set up my new computer desk yesterday. Looks quite sexy if I do say so myself. It is gray and black with mesh, metal panels and a glass top. Nice and small, so it fits perfectly between my TV and my dresser.
Yes, I do in fact know that I am a geek
My Myspace blog has been gaining more attention. Noticed that the views have been picking up as of late. Still not as many as I would like, but not much I can do short of friend whoring (Which I don't like). Anyway, I enjoy whoring myself to the masses, so even a slight increase in attention makes me happy lol
Keira Knightley and Scarlett Johansson for Vanity Fair's latest issue. Can you say "hot?" *Insert drooling here*
The Bad
Somehow, my sister keeps managing to fall lower and lower. I really don't think there is a decent bone in her body at this point. Let's see. There is the Money Tree business still going on. They went from sending us mail to actually calling our house. Then, she has yet to meet with her parole officer. I'm really not going to be surprised when the police start showing up at our house, especially since she uses our information for everything.
Oh yes, and let's not forget yesterday when she called our house for 45 minutes straight. It pissed me off and freaked me out to no end. Call, hang up, call, hang up, call, leave message of breathing, hang up, call, hang up after first ring, call, hang up, call, leave message of breathing, etc. And of course, with my overactive imagination, I immediately thought of the baby-sitter urban legend. So I crept into the kitchen, grabbed a big ass knife, and cleared the house room by room.
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Her behavior has gotten to a point where I feel like a prisoneer in my own home...The one place where I should feel safe at all times. I mean, she'll call non-stop, she'll show-up our door, and knock and yell non-stop, and if no one is there, she'll just wait for someone to come home. I mean, it shouldn't be that hard to figure out that we are either not home, or don't want to talk to you. Can't she just leave us alone?
And to top it all off, we now believe she is doing something else. Something that, for some reason, I just can't bring myself to say. Maybe it is because I am ashamed of it...Even despite how lowly I think of her. But then again, based on her life style, it isn't all that surprising. I'm sure those of you who have followed my journals will be able to guess what she is doing...But I just can't say it. For some reason it feels like admitting what she is doing will degrade myself.
The Ugly
I continue to feel horrible. In fact, as I am typing this, I am suffering from an astma attack. My inhaler seems to be worthless. Probably going to have to go with an all-out breathing treatment tonight.
I've been going through phases of light-headedness. My nose is all stuffy and running. Lots of pressure in my face thanks to swollen sinuses. Loads of breathing problems.
What really sucks is that until the weather changes, I'm stuck feeling this way. Maybe I should move to Antarctica...Don't think I'll have as many health problems there lol...
The Gaming Scene
Phoenix is going to be back for CAL-O season 5! I think we are going to take things a little more seious this time around...We are actually going to practice lol. By the way, feel free to stop by our CS:S server at 216.85.179.70:27015
I also recently ventured into scripting for the first time; creating an autoexec.cfg file:

Since using this I've noticed that I've been playing a lot better overall. My shooting has been a lot more accurate, and I've nabbed a hell of a lot more headshots. Been practicing my AWPing skills and have improved quite a bit. Still have some trouble hitting moving targets at closer range though
And I suck at long range shooting with M4/AK lol. Oh well, just need to practice more
In WoW news, I hit level 20 on my new warrior. Did 10-19 WSG for a little while. Went 0-3 In two of those rounds, I led in killing blows and honor kills. Had some horrible teams...No organization at all...No plans...No defense.
Now, I've been in some bad groups, but I had, by far, the worst one today while running Deadmines. Our only healer was a Paladin, and I was stuck being the MT. This person was horrible...She would waste heals on me as soon as the battle started, whenever a sliver of my life went down. So I would be holding aggro and taunting away, and after a few seconds, she would forget about me and start healing others, all of which weren't taking much damage, and my life would drop, drop, drop, and then I would hear "Sorry out of mana."
WTF Her only job was making sure I stayed alive, and she couldn't do it. Not to mention the battle in which a rogue sapped the wrong group, pulled a mob of 5 or so elites, and our healer went afk. So, one of my group member's health dropped, and I taunt (I was almost at full health still). So I'm tanking, and my health starts dropping fast. I die. My group soon dies after. I look up to find our Paladin, still alive, with 100% health and mana. What a whore 
So, after another whipe shortly after, I forced the group to disband by leaving the party and exiting

Thank you for contacting Blizzard Entertainment! World of Warcraft
accounts are generated using the authentication key included in each retail
copy and each account does require an unused authentication key for
activation. This key controls only the account creation; it is not needed
in order to install the game client onto a computer. Therefore, you are
able to install the game on as many computers as you wish, however, you
will only be able to access your account from one location at a time.
If you wish to play from multiple locations at a time it will be
necessary to create a separate account for each user or location. This does
necessitate the purchase of additional copies of World of Warcraft. It
also necessitates the purchase of multiple subscription fees; one for
each account that you wish to play. At this time we do not offer
discounted rates for game purchases nor have we announced any sort of "family
rate" or household packages, but this is an option we are definitely
looking into. In addition, we do not currently offer authentication keys
separate from the retail version of World of Warcraft. If we do make any
kind of multiple-account or multiple-key package available in the
future, it will be posted on www.worldofwarcraft.com. I suggest you also use
your existing account to post this idea to the "Suggestions" portion of
our forums at http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com.
Please note: Character transfers between accounts are not available.
However we do have plans to offer a fee based character transfer service
in the future. Currently we do not have a time frame on when this will
be available or additional information; such as prices for this
service. Please keep an eye on our website at www.worldofwarcraft.com for
more information as it becomes available.
