Posted this on Facebook, but for those that don't have it:

It's a long story, but just wanted to let yas know that I'll be scarce as of the 23rd of this month. The computer I'm using (since mine has been fried for almost two years now) is moving with one of the roomies.

-I really, REALLY like building worlds. Or even building on existing worlds with artistic freedom. I thought I'd grown bored of it.

-I really, REALLY like fighting games. I always thought I was a casual console gamer, but Guilty Gear was awoken something dark and sinister in me, and BlazBlue plans to feed upon it.

-I love the new guy on Law & Order: CI. Alot.

-I miss writing, but miss my drive to write even more.

-Amaretto and root beer is an amazing mix, though the smells of both would tell you otherwise. It tastes like root beer with melted vanilla ice cream in it (AKA the part where a root beer float tastes the best).

-And lastly, and most to my shame, I actually sort of miss WoW. Although it doesn't feel right with so few people left to play with (inadvertently avoiding ER since I got Scroll of Ressurectioned probably has something to do with that last part).

And with that...possibly sleep?

Attending a multi-day gamefest at a friend's house!

That's my character of choice above. Arakune! Excited.

EDIT: Alas, no midnight release. NOW they tell us! Anyway, tomorrow IT BEGINS!

This argument is really getting old.

"If you didn't vote, you have no say in politics!"

Sorry, but I pay taxes. And I live here. Why, exactly, if I didn't 'participate in THE PROCESS' am I suddenly not allowed to voice my opinion about the state of things in the country in which I live?

Let us not forget that I -have- to live here since I can't afford to move elsewhere, not mentioning the whole getting citizenship process that can take quite a bit. Also, I'd rather not be forced by retarded government to move away from those I know and love.

(by the way, before I get a twelve paragraph comment arguing this, I -did- vote, and still stand by this opinion)

Anyone notice the lack of LJ postings lately?

I blame Facebook and Twitter for being awesome.

Dreamt that my life was fast forwarded two years (or was it one?), but the last day I remembered was yesterday. It was September sixth 2011 (or was it 2010?). Not really sure what the significance of that is, but it kept coming up.

If anyone happens across a video of the 'vision' Yogg gives you where the Lich King is torturing 'Immolated Champion', could ya drop me a link? And no, I already have the one with the audio. I wanna see the actual vision.

THEIR MOUTHS ARE CLOSED AT LAST.

"SCRAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWK"

"Sunshine, it's 7AM. People are sleeping."

"SCRAWK?"

"SUNSHINE."

"..."

Five minutes later

*taptaptap*

"..."

*taptaptaptap*

"..."

*TAPTAPTAPTAPTAP*

*looks up at the bird* "...what?"

*hides behind the little wall on the bottom of the cage*

"No peekaboo right n--"

*little head pops up, cute little "Twert?"*

"*sigh*"

*does it again, and again*

"We can play late--"

"Twert?"

"Yes, peekaboo. No more right now."

*bird stares*

"...what?"

*STARE*

"...Sunshine."

*STAAAARE*

"You're really fucking creepy, you know that?"

You've just fucked up your sleeping schedule. At least that last one lasted for a bit.

CAN YOU DIG IT?

Fullmetal Alchemist: Conqueror of Shamballa - $3

Baldr Force Exe (entire series)- $3

Brick - $3

Around 5 hours of entertainment for $9.

SO WIN.

It never ceases to amuse me how the ex-girlfriends come pouring out of the woodwork whenever they hear I'm even so much as just dating someone (not in a relationship, since I see a difference, there, dunno about you guys).

At least I got a good grin/facepalm out of today. Now to catch a couple hours of Z's.

So I discovered some stuff in one of my random Wikipedia prowls this evening.

The term 'drow' ("it's drow!" they'd argue {dr sound like druh, ow sound like 'OW!' and I've always said drow to make it rhyme with 'throw'} BOTH ARE RIGHT FUCK YOU ALLLLL), whose pronunciation I've debated since I first read my first Salvatore novel, is actually a mythical creature of Scottish origin.

To those of you that knew this already, sorry for not realizing this sooner, but I've always nosed around in other mythologies and never really bothered to look this up, just because, due to the heated rumors a number of years ago about some kind of lawsuit, I thought D&D held the rights to the race's name and were the ones to cook it up.

So, now, armed with this knowledge (embarrassingly late though it may be) I will henceforth kick anyone that tries to correct me or mock me for use of the term in my own writings right in the berries and/or labia and feel completely fine with it.

Thank you, ancient Scottish people.

Now I need to decide between calling them Svartalfs and Drow. Because I like both words. Maybe I'll just used them interchangeably like I was with 'dark elf' and 'sv' with Perantius in Kindred.

I got sent home from work because I wasn't meeting my quota. Lost my $1 bonus an hour off my paycheck. It was because I wasn't making the quota of $15 an hour.

I was making $14.91.

...

There is a myriad of stressful emotions going on in both my head and my stomach right now. I want to puke, hit someone, and also drink this entire mug of 7&7 in one gulp all at once.

The Chaz is single again. Wimminz and menz be warned!

I wish I could say this was the last post about my job, but I might be lying.

I got a call from a mister 'Dichbrech'. I pronounced it dych-brek, he corrected me.

"It's dick-break."

"...Well, John, can I offer you..."

And I also got a Charles Thomson. I just wanted to laugh at that one. And oddly, not at dick-break. I was just uncomfortable.

It also seems that growing up with weird French and Polish names in my family has helped me in this field. I grew up with 'Desmaris' and 'Stodulski'. Even have a very good friend who is named 'Seredynski'. So 'Krzermski'? Doesn't bother me. I got complimented on saying their name right! Even got a pledge for $35 out of it.

"Misses Guiterraz?"

"Yes, may I ask who is calling?"

"Hi there, my name is Charles and I'm with Innovative...(insert the rest of the schpiel here)."

"Oh! Well, how can I help you today?"

"(more schpiel) And with just a small donation of $35 or $25..."

"Er...NO ENGLISH. NO HABLA."

(In Chaz's mind: You...you don't even have an accent. What are you even doing right now?)

To further the weirded outness that is me having an 'office job'...I got a memo today. WHAT IS THIS CRAP. WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM, AN ADULT?

Apparently I has a 3 day weekend this weekend, though. Wee! Wish I'd had one after I got paid so I could see about hanging out with peoples.
So win.
