I am leaving for the World Steam Expo tomorrow morning. Tonight I will be staying at Loki's house. Pretty much as soon as the last member of our airship gets off work (in the morning) we set sail. Or flight or something. Seriously hoping I don't forget anything, but I believe I am all set. Did my packing before work today.
I started writing a bit the other night. But then I got distracted and shut down the browser, and now I can't seem to find an autosave of it. I was under the impression this thing autosaves. Or that I hit save. Or something. But I only had like a paragraph, so its no great loss.
Hopefully I'll maybe get some typing done during the expo. I suppose it depends on how busy things are.
Oh, my desktop died and I am seriously peeved. Same problem three times in a row, and I am sick of taking it to my brother to fix it. Upon startup (or waking up from sleep) none of the USB ports work, nor the monitor. It has something to do woth a bad patch it automatically gets, I think? And putting it into sleep mode causes it to freak the fuck out.
But also I have a dead fan on it and another one thats on its last leg of life. I am considering just buying a new computer, but I am having a tricky time justifying it. It'd be about $800 for a new one... been looking on ibuypower.com. I am probably going to wait and see what the next sales being and maybe make a descision based onthat. I wish shipping from there wasn't so expensive. $75!
So anyway thats your update on my life. Enjoy it.

So I like typing. I like blogging. But getting started on a post is really the hard part. Always excuses, something else I'd rather be doing.
Right now I am over at Pookie's sitting in a room full of various people I know that I don't feel like coming up with clever nicknames for. Except for... Hermes. Yes, I shall call her Hermes.
Hermes and her boyfriend Loki are going to the Steampunk. Loki is driving and we'll be staying in a hotel room together. Should be great fun.
But yes, now. Three people are on Mass Effect 3, one person is on Diablo 3, and one more person is on some other obscure game I don't know. Two more sit on laptops doing their own individual things, and Boyfriend is watching Pookie play ME.
I was playing Fire Red, working on my Nuzlocke run, but really that doesn't interest me terribly at the moment. I might fire up Emerald Randomizer to set up a started and write about that Nuzlocke run, but I dunno. Then I'd also have two going at once. Eh whatevs I dunno.
People are switching things up but not doing much that inerests me... or that I could really be involved in. Hermes and Pookie and writing. I could write. They are Writers... but I write occasionally. Well, I guess I don't even really write occasionally. I imagine stories, I live them in my head, but I don'tt put them down on paper/computer. I know, I should. Maybe I'll write.
Guess I'll see what happens

People are viewing my blog. Whats wrong with you people?
I have been completely absorbed in Diablo. I want to do nothing more besides eat food, drink caffeine, and play copious amounts of Diablo. Work is really cramping my style.
Opening night was a bummer. I stayed up until servers launched and finally managed to get on the server... but couldn't create a character. I was so tired, I gave up and went to bed.
I didn't think it requiring an internet connection would bug me as much as it does. Really with the amount of us who were trying to play all at once (I went to Pookie and Tom's house to play) it causes lag, and this mad me angry. Lag on a singleplayer game? Stoopid.
Have had a good time playing with other people here and there, though. I need to experinment with a hardcore character... which is hard for me because sometimes I play like a retard. I rush into battle "OHSHITOHSHITOHSHIT!" and run back out. My retreat is not always successful. And I guess to be fair my tactics on Diablo 3 are weay better than they were on Diablo 2.
On smaller less inmportant notes, I have picked up watching 30 Rock on Netflix because its nice to have something playing in the background sometimes. Also I am doing a Nuzlocke run on Pokemon Fire Red. So far so good. I might try writing some Pokemon Nuzlocke fanfic at some point, but I haven't decided for sure yet.
Anyway that was just a quick update with what I have been doing. Back to work!

Paranoia Paranoia, everybody's coming to get me
So my desktop has taken a shit on me, which is unacceptable, especially before the release of Diablo 3. Thankfully, Brother is brilliant with computers. Its done this same thing before, and I think the fix is a matter of wiggling some parts around.
Got my new corset in the mail.
I am going to World Stream Expo downstate at the end of this month and I had ordered a corset from Ebay. Well I measured and went by their little sizing chart but the corset I ended up with was kinda big and looked funny, lots of gaps and whatnot. So I gave that one to Pookie (its still up in the air whether or not she will be able to go) and ordered myself a new one and luckily managed to get it at half the price and a size smaller. Fits much better, I am pleased.
Had the weekend off, didn't accomplish much. Grocery shopping. Hanging out. Being frustrated.
I realized I am the only one of my friends that doesn't have her own place. Everyone else is married, engaged, and has their own house or apartment. Its incredibly frustrating. Two of them older, one younger, and one the same age. I wasn't supposed to be where I am now.
Of course I suppose life is better than what it was heading for. Less complicated. My last boyfriend was in the army (he wasn't when we started dating, he joined during) and that was making things hella-hard. Although I'm not going to worry about telling that tale unless there is some anonymous reading who is simply DYING to hear. lulz
So today's to-do list is to hopefully hook with Brother for lunch and hand my desktop off to him. Then probably lots of derping around, possibly trying to actually write something. I wanted to do something with Abby (my dog) today, but its overcast and a little chilly. Guess we'll see how the day goes.
