I am back!
Oct. 16th, 2005 01:01 pmThere is nothing quite like rolling out of a warm bed on a cold autumn Sunday morning, to find that you need to hustle your butt down to the lab and fix stuff that other people have broken. Next week I'm staying in bed.
Have returned from business trip. Wasn't that fun. Theorists are strange.
At least I got to spend some time with my family, especially my brother. This is strange, because I was probably in the running for one of the worst (but non-abusive) brothers in the world up until I was almost ready to go to college. He will protest this, of course, but my memory is better on this subject than his. It makes things interesting, our almost total lack of interaction meant that we basically became pseudo-friends when he entered Junior High. Funny how life works...isn't it?
So I got to share my video collection with him, and he showed me some of his stuff. I got to see the full Suikoden V trailer, which loks pretty neat, although if they have breathtaking new additions to the gameplay machine, they hid them pretty well. Couldn't understand a damn thing though, because I still don't speak Japanese.
Also got to watch his copy of Advent Children. I enjoyed the fighting scenes (heck, the entire movie was a fighting scene), but was slightly disapointed by the plot. I still recommend it though. It's tempting me to write that Kingdom Hearts era FFVII/FFVIII/FFX mega-crossover, which fortunately will never be written because a) it sucks, and b) there is no way I possibly have time for that.
Additionally, I got told by a female friend of mine that I should take up dating (no, she was not trying to flirt), and that I would probably be fairly successful at it because she misconstrues me as an amusing conversationalist. This further leads to my conclusion that a great deal of the female population with which I am personally acquainted is completely and totally off their rocker. On the other hand, its nice to know that someone thinks you are likely to be successful at something, if nothing else it reinforces your opinion of your ability to pull off a good bluff. In the meantime, my self-esteem is too shattered, so I'll sit in my room and do nothing. I have internet access, so who cares anyway?
Hopefully I will come up with something more profound than this to entertain you, or at least provoke a reaction, later. Maybe I'll complain about the whole Sutter case...
