I'M FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

That's so inspirational. I've been contemplating a 'career' change for quite a bit...the life of an office 'beeotch' is not a glamorous one.

It just...sucks.  Long hours, lack of organization on the corporate level (I lived in Maryland for three months and they still shipped packages to my parents' house), completely unrelated to my field, etc etc etc etc.

I'm going to be swinging into an IT job soon after I get back to Ohio if all goes well.

Seconded in the name of incredible truths.


We pressed on. Shortly afterwards, we arrived in a poisonous, post-apocalyptic hell - a sprawling, toxic dumping ground stretching for a mile or two. This is the final resting place for your old TV, computer or mobile phone.

Dexter is the best fucking show ever in the history of television. Fucking hell I just finished the second season and I've never been so satisfied by a show. The second season paled in comparison to the first but it was still fucking amazing.

ok for the first time in a long time, i did stuff with friends from shortly after i woke up(little earlier than 2pm) to later in the night (bout 12:10am).

wake up
head to friends house
take off to the next town with said 4 friends
buy stuff in the "hall of heroes" (its an rpg shop)
eat
go back, do some dungeon crawling in our 4th edition game
after a big encounter, get food/eat s'more
go back to said dungeon and continue the game (the dungeon we are in is XBAWX HUEG)
finish off some battles, including an ooze solo monster, almost finish off the FIRST LEVEL of the dungeon, call it a day

so pretty much, about 7ish hours of playing in the one level of a dungeon, but its awesome, and 4th edition is awesome, and screw the haters.

level 3 dwarven cleric beeotch! 

and i can't possibly see how you can disslike fourth edition, it's just more fun to play, and they improve on a lot of things.

one thing i especially like

say you roll a 20 to crit, in 3.5 you would need to re-roll to "confirm" the critical, and then "roll" the damage, so IF you make the critical, you could still do less damage than a standard attack.

in fourth edition, when you roll a 20, you hit, and you do max damage, and its awesome.

plus the dragonborn could make for some pretty good scalie pronz, the artwork in the players handbook is frekaan awesome.  not to mention the players handbook is COLORFUL, and the artwork is better because of this.

Oh yes, I know.  It doesn't help that most employers laugh at ITT degrees.  On the bright side, this guy seemed pretty psyched about me working for him, so things should be good.

I'll also have a lot of time to work on Obsidian (my customatic Linux distro) this week.  I could probably hammer in a quick package manager if I keep working at it.

Remember the girl I mentioned earlier who was with a total idiot that didn't deserve her? Well, I think I helped convince her to break up with him for me :D And she's coming over today!

I learned a few things today:

1) It's a 30 minute walk from my apartment to the nearest plaza.
2) My cell phone's stereo headset yields amazing audio clarity and it was a free accessory with the phone.
3) Playing MP3s for an hour rapes my cell phone's battery (down to 1/3 bars).  Yikes.

But anyways, 3 mile walk == I feel great. :D

Are you talking about Dexter's Laboratory? That show wasn't really that great, rofl.

Also, way to go sq3r! Sounds like you've discovered an infinite amount of incredible truths.
