We are going to a Comedy Club tonight and she gave me a very nice clothing accessory Tuesday night as a present.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I managed 90 minutes on World of Warcraft. I am totally a geek because I&#8217;m enjoying smelting and engineering more than I am killing stuff. I made level 10 with my gnome mage, and moved to another page of my map for the first time (but then moved back, as I have lots of unfinished quests where I was). I also replaced a dead headlight and re-aligned one that I installed improperly a few months ago. I like my little Hyundai, but it&#8217;s not great design when I have to pull the battery to get to one of the headlight lamps.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up to 70 degree temperatures and sun, which makes it hard to be grumpy even when I do have to get up before 10am. I really needed the quiet night last night; my social life has been cranked up to 11 lately, which is nice, but a little overwhelming. The 1.5 hours of video-gaming was a present to myself. Lord knows when I&#8217;ll finally finish Halo 1, Jedi Knight II, Elite Force II, NOLF, BloodRayne, Tron 2.0, .\/Hack, Robotech: Battlecry, Red Faction II&#8230; okay I&#8217;m going to stop working out this list because it is depressing me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Congrats to <a href=\"http:\/\/yubbie.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">yubbie<\/a> &#038; <a href=\"http:\/\/colleenk.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">colleenk<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/nius.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">nius<\/a> &#038; <a href=\"http:\/\/rainbowsaber.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">rainbowsaber<\/a>, on their new housing developments! (Ouch. That was unintentional, I swear.)<\/p>\n<p>Since everything&#8217;s all Star Warsy right now, here&#8217;s a pair of websites you should visit:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.trudang.com\/pinkfive\/\" target=\"_new\">Pink Five<\/a>: two of the funniest fan films I&#8217;ve seen, easily up there with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theforce.net\/fanfilms\/shortfilms\/troops\/\" target=\"_new\">Troops<\/a> as fan classics. The third film should be out soon, and they posted a <a href=\"http:\/\/rop5.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_new\">production blog<\/a> which includes the lead actress&#8217; reaction to meeting a fan dressed as her! I want a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cafepress.com\/trulydangerous\/422118\" target=\"_new\">Pink Harvest<\/a> t-shirt or button or something.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of people have heard of this one, but <a href=\"http:\/\/darthside.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_new\">Darth Vader&#8217;s blog<\/a> has the distinction of not only being funny, but damn well written. The <a href=\"http:\/\/darthside.blogspot.com\/2005\/04\/wind-beneath-my-wings.html\" target=\"_new\">entry about Qui-Gon<\/a> actually sent chills though me with its ineffable appropriateness. I found myself nodding, and saying to myself, &#8220;Wow&#8230; that makes sense.&#8221; And the blog even has an <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/DarthSide\" target=\"_new\">RSS feed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, back to working.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today it is my unbirthday!
