Found a streaming server for Japanese anime music and j-pop… http://japanaradio.com/. Listened to it this morning while getting dressed – it was nice background music. I would listen to it here at work to annoy everyone, but our ISDN connection isn’t fast enough. Besides, the only other person who will be here today is my coworker Adam, who wouldn’t be annoyed by it at all – and how much fun is that?

As near as I can tell, the only game shop in Roanoke that has available stock of Mechwarrior: Dark Age is a little place called “Ground Zero” that doesn’t even have a phone. We got our figures, though… but then Rain had to stay at work until 10pm ’cause of a stupid virus outbreak on their machines. We’re not even sure what time she’ll be home tonight. So no playtesting. 🙁 The figures are nice looking, and we got a Unique Hatchetman and an Elite Centurion in our first boxes. (For those not familiar with the game, those are two of the most playable mechs in the original Battletech.)

Gonna be hot and sticky again today 🙁

It is most unfairly nice outside right now. Sunny and warm but cool in the shade, light breeze, clear blue sky, one or two thin filaments of cloud for texture…

A less responsible person than myself would be out there playing hooky from work and enjoying himself right now. However, I am much more responsible than that.

… darn it.

I just walked outside to take a break – it took a major effort of will to turn around and walk back in!

Just walking out and getting some fresh air made me smile. I can’t believe I’m going to be stuck inside today until well after dark. It better be this nice this weekend so I can get some walking in with my sweetie!!
