Oh god we're going to stay up all night watching Avatar. Just hit halfway through season three. Gonna finish it, drop Ag off at his bus a few hours later, then take a sick day and sleep for seven or eight hours. |

Does this count as fusion?
Making some of my awesome Italian bread tonight to go with the Chicken Tikka Masala I'll be cooking. Will be topping off the meal with some Napa Valley wine. mm. |

Dawww, look at those two cuddly-wuddly stud muffins.  In other news, Aggy and I have thus far gone through Book of Water and Earth (except for the final episode, we are watching that when he gets back from the city) during his visit. I really want to try to power him through Book of Fire before he goes home tomorrow. My fellow benders, we have another convert! Current Mood:  bouncy |

I find it amusing how the 4e book says tieflings are "a race descended from ancient humans who bargained with infernal powers" and not "yeah your dad was a demon who raped your mom, enjoy." No color-coating for us Planescape fans. edit: THERE'S ONLY FIVE ALIGNMENTS? HORSESHIT |

Saw Hurt Locker, Wes y'all gonna love the fuck out of this movie, go see it I need to start working on shit. With the work rush I haven't done much for Deadlands (not that there's a priority on it since we rarely have a full group to play), and I'd like to start working on a D&D campaign (don't need to know the rules to write, I can pencil in stats later). It sucks cause any creativity I used to have back in the day is dried up and dead now. Not that I'd run it anytime soon, but it'd be nice to have a lot of material to work with. Creativity has been slim to none for me, and I've hit rock bottom on it. I used to get distracted and daydream a lot about all sorts of shit, and my writing classes in college, while a challenge at some points, made me really concentrate on writing all sorts of shit. I lost The Spark, for lack of a better term. The last time I really got inspired to write something was when my car broke down in Waco and I went out and bought writing supplies, but by the time I got everything and ate lunch, my car was fixed and I lost it driving home. Maybe I need to read more, from an actual book and not a computer screen. Or work on some kind of craft. I can't even write music, last time I tried I thought I had something down, turns out it was just an irregular variation on the Parasite Eve theme. As far as playing it goes, I've been focusing on getting a couple songs down really well instead of overloading myself on material and not being too good at all of them. I'm just really disappointed in general in how I'm not good at one thing. I've been a jack of all trades, master of none for a long time, but not good enough in any specific field to make it enjoyable or at the least work. It's obvious to me why I work sales and QA most of the time. |

Woodworkers - a question about veneer
All the veneer I can find is thin, both the heat-applied and pressure-sensitive varieties. I need to find something thicket, almost like linoleum in terms of thickness. I essentially need something that will not only veneer the surface, but also cover one or two sizable missing chunks in it. Does what I'm looking for still fall under the 'veneer' category, or am I looking for something else? Basically I want a veneer that's too thick to roll up. |

When you don't have a car (part deux)
...sometimes you just don't get anywhere. It was someone's birthday today. Unfortunately, I didn't attend even though I would have liked to. My fault, really. Though I mentionned it, I didn't remind that I would have liked to go. Curse my bad habit of not wanting to bother anyone. Always afraid that I'd be a nuisance. Leaves me in my little corner. Hmf. Enough of the stupid self pity. Blah! (See? I'm bothering you with that, ha ha!) Let's post some rough Water Tribe pages instead. ( 4 rough pages ) Current Mood: HeadachyCurrent Music: No music. To warm to listen to music. |

Meat meet owned. Got a porterhouse so big we had to split it three ways and it was more alive than dead with a ruby red core, chased it with what everyone at the table said was a real writer's drink (absinthe, rye and something else I forget), split the richest cheesecake on the planet with Mat and then wandered home in the rain. Dinner was fun even if most of it consisted of Seth, Mat and I doing funny accents at each other, me torturing Seth with Twilight plot points and everyone making meat puns. I'm sure Athena will have pictures shortly. |

The concert was awesome, if a bit truncated because out of nowhere we get pissed on by a rainstorm. A good night. |

Moon Review
So, I saw Moon last night. I liked it, I'd tell other people to see it, I just don't know what to think about it. For those of you not in the know, here's the trailer of Moon, along with the premise, ganked from Wikipedia: Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is an employee contracted by the company Lunar Industries to extract helium-3, which has reversed Earth's energy crisis. Sam is stationed at the lunar base Sarang with only a robot named Gerty (voiced by Kevin Spacey), but two weeks before completing his three-year assignment, he begins to hallucinate. An extraction goes wrong and he wakes up, not knowing how he got there, and Sam begins to realise Lunar's plans to replace him when he finds a younger, angrier, version of himself. ( What folows is a heavily spoiled discussion of the movie. )So, I'd give it like a 3 out of 5 star rating. It was a good, well shot, mostly well put together, hard sci-fi movie, but I think it was full of so much more potential that was just, sadly, left on the floor. EDIT: Here's a review from the Washington Post [spoilers!] that reiterates some of my qualms with the movie. Current Mood:  contemplative |

*9PM, Whale Wars is over* I think I'll play some MGS4, an- *is midnight* what happened to my life Jesus Christ, Kojima is the god of video game immersion. I'm gonna keep playing and then not notice it's 6AM Edit: Okay bedtime after the Laughing Octopus fight. I've had enough heart attacks for one day. Motherfuck, there is no experience like a game that fucks with your head like that |

Zubby Darkstalkers Tribute
I finally got around to posting up my Darkstalkers Tribute art piece of Hsien-Ko, the Chinese ghost. For those of you who don't know the character, she has all kinds of weapons and silly items up her sleeves that she attacks enemies with. Like with my Street Fighter Tribute pic from last year we were free to interpret the character our own way, which was a blast.  We're still taking online orders for the limited edition hardcover edition of the book for another 3 days, so if you want a copy and aren't attending Otakon, San Diego Comicon, Toronto Fan Expo or PAX, this is your last chance. |

The continuing saga wherein I feel like posting
So, woke up this morning with a fever. Since I hadn't had a fever up until that point, I had to call in and go see the doc. After more poking, prodding, blood sampling, and general unpleasantry, my doc said he really thinks this is just some odd virus and I'll have to deal with it. He pulled some strings and got my specialist appt moved up, which is good, but in the meantime, he gave me some more Lortab, some stellar anti-inflammatories and wished me well. He also pronounced me non-contagious, which is good. Fun times. Meantime, I'm doing better than I was this morning, but I had to get some work done. And now I've got a headache. But that's ok. I can take a headache. |

Circles in the Field
This is one of the most beautiful crop circles I've ever seen.  The giant pattern - thought to represent a traditional Mayan head-dress - appeared next to the tallest prehistoric man-made mound in Europe last week.
Members of the crop circle community believe the mystic symbol is a signal of the end of the 5,126-year Mayan 'Long Count' calendar on December 21, 2012. I can't begin to imagine the planning that went into this, but wow. |
