For the last three and a half hours, Curt has been attempting to beat my score on the third level of Defense Grid: The Awakening, and he has been unable to do it.

BAHAHAH!

And WTH, Kurt. You have a blog! ;)

My younger brother threw a family kabob luncheon, and it was yummy. My Sim achieved her life goal of becoming an astronaut; she now works 1 day per week and on that day, she makes $7,000. The rest of the week she spends fishing and gardening. I am officially jealous of my Sim.

I get to keep Blinky, the boy kitten! I have traded him as an indoor cat for my previous dog option upon owning a home. Yay! :)

Bored.com – Boomshine.

Not that the states of being bored and being at work ever coincide…

Tomorrow, I bring the almighty Oregon Trail into the office for some good time pioneer fun.

Yahoo News – Deaths of gamers leave their online lives in limbo by AP: Yahoo Tech.

Not that I play WoW anymore, but if I were to die, I have left instructions with Curt to post my death on this blog. In which case it would be up to either Dodds or Kurt to notify my old online friends, at which point I would expect the entire guild to mount an expedition to kill the Lich King and take the epic – no, not just epic! LEGENDARY – lootz to the Sunken Temple, the place of my eternal rest.

I guess my siblings would tell you all that I were dead as well. You can never tell with them. Wretched PVPers…

This is someone else’s video of X2. I actually went on this ride. Of course, this video was the first time I saw what was happening to me since I shut my eyes at about the 1:10 point and didn’t open them again until I knew for sure I wasn’t going to die.

Of course, Paula and Curt had a great time on all the scary rides, and I looked very much forward to my obligatory amusement park churro. It was a great time, though! Next time I have been promised a churro + stunt show. That’s my speed, baby. ;)

Curt brought me flowers today, too. :) Besides being sweet, it gave me the chance to continue practicing with the macro lens my dad gave me a few weeks ago. Whee!

Did you know today was

Curt loves me, and therefore I will not write my angry rant about Microsoft, or the state of the world. With a few balloons and colorful crepe streamers, my husband has single-handedly vanquished the world’s iniquities (as they exist within our tiny little demesne). Today I will not complain.

Happy evening, all! :)
