Tomorow is my wife's birthday (yes, it's on Valentine's day, which is both good and bad ;)).  At this point she told me not to get her anything big.

We also have a four month old daughter, so this will be my wife's first birthday as a mother.  I bought her a couple of boxes of candy that I know she likes and got her a card with some baby-related humor on it, and signed it from our daughter.

Of all the presents I've ever gotten her, this one is the one I'm looking forward to seeing her open the most.

Just DM'd for the first time in about 2 years, the kick-off of my Eberron campaign. I must say I'm extremely pleased with how it went, not just with my DM'ing, but also with the players :)

I'm going through the opposite.  I'm trying to GM a Saga pre-fab adventure path, and it's not going as well as I'd like.  Then again, I don't usually GM, and one of the players is a first timer...

I just got a video card for my crappy computer at home.  I freakin love this thing!  I turned on Everquest2, and upped my graphics a bit and discovered that I have a fucking flaming sword!

I've had that thing for a month and never knew that!  Awesome.

My Target credit card is now confetti in my trash can.  Screw them and their 24% interest rates, my employer now owns one less piece of me.

Holy cow...I'm a trainer...I've only been working here for a year now, and I'm already one of the trainers, and I'm a good pick for Head Trainer AND Corporate Trainer.  How did that happen?

Heh. I beat the class average on a 300-level Political Science test by 28%. I'm a Biology major. This makes me laugh.

EDIT: Holy hell, I think I passed my Organic Chemistry exam! And maybe made a grader headdesk, since I did a problem in the section that's supposed to be 4 to 5 steps long in 1 step.

So you end up stuck in an endless loop, unable to act, forever.

In retrospect, much like Keanu Reeves.

OOOOH!!!

Yep...

I just came.

People usually think that I've lost my mind. I haven't lost it, I know exactly where it is: the gutter.

My body is a temple. That is why I make chocolate sacrifices in it every day.

*hands mop and bucket*

But yeah, that's a pretty good lineup :)


Anywho, I'm so looking forward to next month, AC/DC and Testament, Megadeth and Judas Priest all in a 11 day timespan :D

*takes back mop and bucket*
I might be needing those...

According to the Pagan Fest Website, too many bad were in studios during tour date and it got postponed to September (well the start of the tour). So it will be a bit later

Still need to get me a new computer somewhere this year.
This 9-year old steam-powered relic is really getting old...

Bah, truly lame.  Ah well.

But I wonder, their Myspace was updated after that announcement, and it seems that they still have the tour dates in North America in May.  Their website specifically stated that European tour dates were postponed.  Not only that, but the club where they'll be performing near where I live still insists they'll be there on the 3rd of May.

Hmm, I'll have to look into that.
