RP groups going live

Db0

So, the RP groups initiative is really starting to pick up steam. Already there a re 4 groups in the forming and mine is scheduled to play today. I’ve also started a new thread for reference to all of them.

I’ve started reading on this page these last few days and it really makes me think about the shit that goes on people’s thoughts. The most normal people to the outside can be one of the biggest emotional wrecks. The facade everyone puts up is simply amazing. It also made me feel better about myself, since I don’t think I’m like any of them. It also made me feel bad because I seem to have everything going for me, appearance, smarts, abilities, creativity, no traumas…I dunno, I guess I’m just incredibly lucky.

I played my Raziel deck on Monday as well, and it pretty much owned. My other decks didn’t do so well but that is the only one that matters. I really hope I can make it awesome…

Job is boring today, extremely boring. I just can’t stop checking on the [tag]WoW[/tag] forums. I’m afraid I’m going to be caught on of these days and lose my job. We are waiting for some outside company to make a review on us. I can’t listen to music 🙁

Yesterday some friends from the past appeared. Nuclear and Airness. Both old gaming friends from way back in ’96. The memories we had…
Both were adventure maniacs, like me and they both go to the same programming school and are hacking like mad. I wish I had the energy to do that. Nuclear said he could help me start. I hope my short attention span doesn’t get the better of me…again.

I haven’t seen my sister or her BF for a while but I know they are busy. I should phone them one of these days for a coffee or something.

I’m thinking of starting my own business. A NetCafe in a developing part of the town. However with no capital whatsoever and a job it will be rough. Still, I always wanted something like that and I want to turn it into a tabletop gaming store as well.

Out again

Db0

So, after a long while I flirted again a bit but it was really more because of boredom than anything else. I went to a costume party, sort of, with a fantasy theme. I didn’t dress up mostly because I learned about it at the last minute, although I would have liked to dress like Caleb or a random warrior at some point, and I knew only 3-4 people there, out of 15 (small [tag]party[/tag]) and the place seemed almost deserted. Anyway, I started chatting with the waitress, she seemed nice but had strange taste in music. I think I could have handled that better but eh…

I’m getting more and more annoyed at some of my “friends” attitude. It seems they consider their right to act like total asses. I’m slowly starting to develop a zero tolerance policy on bullshit.

Still thinking about the ex more than I’d like. Fortunately is seems the frequency of said thoughts is decreasing. I need to find something to distract myself. I still get melancholic when I see loving couples.

I played [tag]Warlord[/tag] again after a long while in a pre-release tourney. I got last but didn’t care as I knew my warlord and deck sucked. However I was just too unlucky, I got the only warlord I didn’t want 🙁
Now I’ve made my Raziel deck even better and can’t wait to try it out. Hopefully it will be done today.

[tag]WoW[/tag] has lagged a bit and I’m growing increasingly bored with it. I hope my RP groups initiative revives my interest.
The RL friends group I tried to organize already is falling apart. One cannot play more than 2:30 hours per day and the other deleted his character at the slightest provocation…

*sigh*

Wow! for WoW

Db0

Man, I haven’t had time to post just because of World of Warcraft. This game rulez (Ha! let me hear me saying that 2 months from now…*sigh*)
I’ve created my first character and then had to trash him because all my friends moved to the other RP server ARGH! Ok, that sucked but I’m starting to like the new character even more. Rogue Engineer Troll, (I wanted to play a goblin but noooooo) Trolls rock however and I need to learn to talk like a Jamaican mon.
Only problem is, there isn’t as much RP as I would like. I hope this is remedied as I advance in level.

Other than that, I haven’t been doing much these days, except yesterday when I went to the movies to see The Grudge…man let me tell you something about annoying audience. I felt I was back at kindergarten! It’s one thing to have one loud person in the room and another to be the only one quiet. I mean, it was a GOD DAMN THRILLER and people were laughing at all the scary scenes. It really ruins the mood 🙁
The move didn’t impress me too much btw, it had some script holes I didn’t like. (Such as the zombified Yoko. What’s up with that?)
I saw my friends after a long time as well.

I’m getting disappointed with the relationship as well 🙁 I think I’m going to bring this to a finish be that bad or good. I just can’t take the psychological pressure anymore. I mean, I’m playing [tag]WoW[/tag] and wondering why she’s acting that way. 🙁
She also played a scene on me where she would be calling by 8 and didn’t and then, just to check I called her by midnight (without caller id) and when she answered I heard voices as if she was out, then I called her house and she didn’t answer. The other day she told me she was sick and stayed all day inside and that her phone doesn’t ring. I don’t know which of us is stupid here…

I’ve left linux fall by the wayside though, too bad WoW doesn’t have a linux client 🙁 that would be awesome. I have to reboot every time I come and leave.

Compile Damn You!

Db0

Back at work and bored.
Sunday was BORING! I sat all day and watched South Park, and pretty soon I won’t have any more South Park to watch (but luckily there are other stuff).
At the end of the day a friend called me to play some Warlord. Crom! it’s been so long, and the rest of the day went smoothly (I lost a lot though, my edge is off)

Around 5:30 I decided to call the gf but she was sleeping. She said she’s call back. She didn’t.

Today, at work I was reminded that I was supposed to attend the company’s Gala (or whatever they call them) that I had forgotten entirely, ugh. Luckily they didn’t press the issue…too much.

So now I’m at work and waiting for my gentoo install to finish. Well, to be precise the install IS complete, but I’m waiting for KDE to compile and it’s taking forever. I expect it to last at least 2 days straight. I made a mistake saturday and the config crashed so I had to start all over again…grrr.

Watched an amusing flamewar on the Audioscrobbler forums, over female masturbation. One guy was owned 🙂 That cheered me up.

Nothing else to do, looks like it’s going to be a slow day. I’m anxious to see if she’s call, but other than that I’m bored. I’m starting to surf too much again, I hope they don’t audit me.

Damn it! I want my WoW

Db0

Argh! I knew it, I just knew it!
[tag]WoW[/tag] wasn’t available today, the copies will arrive on Monday…typical. If it is ever possible that Blizzard gave only 2000 copies to Greece. I mean FFS this is the MOST expected game of the season and they can’t even get it right. I’m disappointed really 🙁
Oh well, I guess I’ll give Bloodlines a try again. I hope I can endure the crappy fps or find another way to fix them.

I saw some South Park today, the episode where they become Ninjas is just incredibly sweet! Kenny and Butters OWN! Fun!

GF called today. It seems hell must have frozen over… *roll eyes*. She sounded sweet though.

Just came back from coffee with a friend, talked linux and got excited. I really should participate in some project. I need to get out today as well, I hope Elt is in the mood.

Other good news is that the patent law has left the voting altogether, that’s very exciting. A weight has been lifted.

All in all, things seem to be turning for the better and my optimism has returned as well…aaah.

Better but not so well

Db0

Yesterday was Ok I guess, I finally played a game of [tag]Chronopia[/tag] and managed to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. I mean I had only 3 models left on the board in the end while the others had half their army. The game was “Capture the Hill” 3 players ffa with a 5 turn limit. Whoever controlled the hill at the end gained extra points. After we decided who captured the hill and calculated the other guys points, just for the record, I asked them to calculate my points as well. Imagine our surprise when the other guy announced “Shit, you’ve won” Much laughter ensued 🙂

On other news, I decided not to write about the sentimental stuff on the public log. I just don’t feel comfortable.

Today I’ve been trying to set up Gentoo at a pc at work and I left it compiling the whole kde. I expect it running till monday and then some. I like it though. All this compiling and system-optimization is sweet. If it works well I think I’ll put it at my own system (I’ve already made room)

I’ve fixes the buggy partition as well…by the rough method. Delete/Format/Restore. Mp3z are back in place and amaroK is rocking 🙂

Tomorrow I expect to get [tag]WoW[/tag]. I was lucky to get a preorder. Everything was booked and I found a store with 10 preorder copies left for Saturday. Lucky me 🙂 I hope it will take my mind off the relationship hardships at least although I fear I may grow bored of it as I did Eve online. I bought the collector’s edition too, I wanted something from the WC universe to remind me of my past.

Need to finish tidying up the room sometime.

Hah! As I was writing, Kensha/Tasos showed up on ICQ. I haven’t seen that soul for MANY years…
