Thursday Schedule Club Night (Beg.) Great… The 3-0 team vs. the 0-3 team, this is gonna be fun. Pre-season I thought we had a really good team going. I guess the other teams are that much better. I guess we have to get a little more organized. And I gotta run more for better and longer stamina. Come and watch if ya wanna. Directions are at the website. I’m #6. Watch me fall on my ass then point and laugh. It’s ok, I’m used to it.

Down With Pacbell!
Damn Pacbell again. First it’s taking 6+ months to get the darn thing installed in the first place, now i’m getting mucho downtime. WTF? For two days it was on and off, then down completely for a whole day, it wasn’t until yesterday it wen’t back up. Damn them. I want my $4 worth of down time back! j/k It isn’t worth my breath to whine about downtime. now, if I were selling stuff online and actually needed the ISP, then I’d be REALLY pissed about lost income PLUS downtime. Then again what do they care about customers? If i cancel, where else am I going to go, plus they wouldn’t be hurt if one measly customer was pissed and cancelled. There’s so many DSL subscribers, what’s one canceled? Nada. This is the reason I haven’t been able to post lately, yeah that’s it, blame it on downtime…
So, the new LONG awaited “Star Trek” type series, “Enterprise”, is starting up soon. September 26th to be exact. I personally can’t wait for the hyped show, it better be good. I’m not too into hype crap; but this one might, and I say MIGHT, be an exception. I hope my instincts are right. I seriously don’t want another DS9, which wasn’t a horable series, just not that good. Anyone noticed that Scott Bakula is the capitain on “Enterprise?” I think that’s cool, he’s a really good actor, IMO. I really liked his work on “Quantam Leap” as “Sam.” I’m sure his acting shall live up to his old series, I hope. Then again I haven’t seen him do much since then…
Today, I finally replaced my lost cell phone, damn my crap memory. Hope, I find it. Then again, what do I need another phone for? Then just feel stupid for buying a phone. So, if anyone called me recently and didn’t leave me a message and found that I didn’t pick up or didn’t return your call, I’m sorry, that’s the reason. For some reason I picked up a non-Nokia phone. Yes, yes, I know. Adam is a BIG nokia promoter. Oh well. I picked up a Panasonic Promax just becausemy dear friend, Carrie, recommended it. Then again she DID say she’d buy another Nokia 8260…
Note 4 moO.
“It’s moO’s way or the highwaaaaaaayyyy!”
Li’l C Needs A Bath
Today I moved my babie to a different shop. $3k for one job seems like alot. Hell, $3k could have bought me my body kit and a nice paint job or even a supercharger!… or I could have paid some of my bills nicely. The new shop I brought it to today is some small Vietnamese gas station, but he said they were ripping me off for the $3k, I’d think so too. According to my calculations, if I add up all the things they told me to fix it would only be, at most 1800! I still want to do the work myself, but then I wouldn’t be able to work or do homework, so it’s high priced opportunity cost.
Aw, seems that imood.com is having some problems. Maybe just a server move.
Cars Are Evil
I finally got around to bringing my car into the show to get the differential done, turns out the driveshaft is shot as well. When I asked what the grand total was, I didn’t expect it to be a FEW grand. Yeah, they wanted about 2,800 for the differential/driveshaft/labor. At this point in time, I’m debating if I should just put that 3k towards a down payment for my Altezza. moO wasn’t amused when I brought that up. Oh well, maybe I get a new car next year.
Happy 4th Of July
Yesterday was the second day back to school. Odd, I was just in school last week. Hella stupid that we don’t even get a week break in between quarters. At least it’s only six weeks. Hrm, summer sessions suck. You have to shove three months of work in only six weeks. Still, it’s only six weeks. Then again the classes are much longer and you have to sit through a whole 2 hours of one class. Then I have to sit through another 2 hours of another class. Woohoo, I got into all my classes.
Today’s the 4th of July. Duh. Hope there’s something to do tonight. It’s cool I don’t have to work either today, ’cause I have tons of homework already.
Everquest
After a long year of playing one of the most popular online video games, I have to retire from the Everquest world. I haven’t finalized it just yet, but it’s coming. I managed to cancel one of my accounts, sad to say, it was my Human Monk named Wongfeii Hungg. moO was a little too happy when I told her this. After a year of the server Torvonnilous and my guild Subversive Destiny, I’m find myself asking do I have a destiny?
For the past couple months, I’ve been trying to get my epic weapon, the Spear of the Fates, but each time I mention it I get told to shut up. I am on the very last thing to kill to get it and the guild wouldn’t help. Strangely enough, when I asked one time if they’d help me I was told we weren’t doing epics and to go level, and the next week they were doing several epic mobs. Again I asked to have the last part of my epic done, I am told, “No, your epic doesn’t contribute to the guild.” WTF is that, sure it doesn’t, but maybe perhaps for my moral it does. It might even help me level faster. Was that taken in account for? Probably not, which is why today I still do not have my epic weapon.
Today was my latest (and perhaps last) attempt at the final epic mob. I had everything set up: reminders, scheduling, player invites, I was good to go. Our guild moral isn’t the best at the moment so that didn’t help any. We had about a turn out less than hoped. My last mob required two high level magicians (58) and their uber fire pets, and we had to settle for zero. Not true we did have a lvl 57 mage there. Soon our cleric (the main healer) decided this raid wasn’t doing to happen, and drops out. I was like, maybe we should give it a try, it never hurts. Sure without the mages we had less than what I needed, but I managed to invite two mages to come and help later, as they were on a raid themselves, but it wouldn’t be for another hour or two. Few wanted to wait for them. So it was suggested that we should clear out the zone and the place holders for my epic mob, in preparation for the two uber mages to come and kill them. The discouraged were adamant about it not happening. So it didn’t, and I am still without an epic weapon, and perhaps will forever be without.
It’s truly sad, I’ve been with Subversive Destiny way before all the mergers, back when we started out as Subversive Forces, just a bunch of Real Life friends messing around on EverQuest, and this is how I am treated by my guild, my friends, my family.
I probably sound like a big computer nerd right about now, that’s ok, ’cause I am one. OK, here’s a little something from my real life:
Today, my cousin Jordan came for a visit, he’s so cute. Today we played foozball with him. He hasn’t quite grasped how to play yet, and cheers no matter which side scores a goal, but he still has fun. I guess thats what we take for granted when we get older, how to have fun, to us elders it’s all about competition.
Movie Night
Finally got around to seeing “The Fast and The Furious” tonight. If you like adrenaline and fast cars, this movie’s for you. I’ve been waiting to see this movie for well over a month. Since the first time I saw the preview, I knew it was one of the must-see movies this summer. I was supposed to see it opening night; however, by the time I got to the theater, the time slot I had hoped for was sold out. Stupid me, forgot to buy tickets ahead of time, or even online. Bottom line: go see it!
Movies added Adam’s To-See list: Kiss of the Dragon, Final Fantasy, American Pie 2, Scary Movie 2, AI…
Spring Session Over!!!
Woohoo! Finally, Summer vacation! That is, until next Monday. Damn my college for making Summer session the week after finals, we don’t even get a break? WTF?!@#$%#@^$&% Such is life I suppose.
Changes In Weblog?
Changing my blog just a little. I added Greymatter to my site, CONFORMIST! Yes, yes, Adam’s using a friggen GUI against all my beliefs. Hey, I can do all this by hand. I’m mainly using this as a way to get that “comments” thing below. So, since I’m making so much trouble to utilize this whole cgi script just for that purpose, I hope you use it! 🙂
Tell me what you think about this new feature with the “Karma” voter below.
