I logged in at Fire and Ice forum and read all the spoilers for a Feast of Crows.
My favorite characters are: Jon Snow, Arya and Tyrion in that order.
Obtained a new 3.2 intel for my workstation. Woot. Loaded all the programs and drivers the 70 per hr Tech failed to load and mapped my network drives. Sheese the irony.
Had to reload every browser and all my links were gone, until I got 7.2.
Tried to contact local court recorder to check my voter reg. status and get it valid.
Then of course loaded UT2003 and it runs darn smooth even with the built in intel 64 meg video card.Ugh! Loaded all maps n mutators and fiddled with the map compiler.
Seriously contemplated using my real name if new polycount boards are adapted.
Learned how to dry shave at work and use lotion afterwards for a smooth, clean feel.
Contemplated leaving my better half again for about the 19,000th time. Shrug….
Successfully was outbidded again at ebay for gba games. (nfl blitz & streetfighterII)
Dragged in unfreshair from outdoors at work and smelled the mixture of cow-dung and the next door college-dropout smoking wacco tabacco for two days. minor woot.
Coughed and coughed up outrageously ugly things out of my lungs. Fuct ragweed this yr!
So what did you all do then?

Since I was a soldier since 4.10. I don't know when the boards went down.
- Became a soldier
- Went through eight days of basic traning
- Was declared unfit for service by a neurologist on the ninth day
- Was on sick leave, discovered the boards were down
- Went to the barracks twice to get all the necessary forms filled out and return my army equipment
- Became a civilian again
- Hung out on Slashdot waiting for the boards to come back up
- Received and completed a request for a model, Sion Eltnam Atlasia from Melty Blood for UT2004
- Procrastinated working through "drawing on the right side of the brain" again
- Played a few of my old C64 games on an emulator after ripping them using an old 386 notebook and a parallel-to-C64-serial cable, noticed that outside of IO, Giana Sisters and TMHT Coin-Op none of my old favourites would run
- Got Painkiller and played it for a bit
- Procrastinated playing Tales of Symphonia further

I ripped up carpet, sanded, painted, landscaped, installed fittings, moved furniture, and generally worked myself stupid. I'm doing up our house to sell, on top of my fulltime work. I'm tired /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Ate myself, and visited other forums /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Got TM, it sucks bad, and only about 33% recover, but it looks like i am getting over it now, only wish i hadn't had to spend so much time in hospital, it was a bitch being so ill and not getting a moment to relax http://www.ninds.nih.gov/health_and_medical/pubs/transverse_myelitis.htm It was one of those things that makes you think, so now i want to go and get a motorcycle again and ride to the sun, just to make sure i enjoy some good life before its too late.
tpe
Should probably add just not to sound too frightning and dramatic , i really am on the way to recovery, so i have been very very lucky, but dont expect to have any significant long lasting effects (knock on wood)
P.S thanks Jes /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Damn that sucks, Tpe... /images/graemlins/frown.gif
Hope you'll recover fully and with as little permanent injury as possible. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I got a job. Played DAOC before the job started. Now I'm too tired to even check the boards, let alone play daoc.

Trained a friend in Maya.
Actually built a possible model for Ut2K4 in Maya. The model looks good.
Hit a milestone at work.
Played a lot of Ut2K4 on the server ...{{{Wicked Whores-ONS}}}...
