Oh, and someone I dislike is leaving my workplace after today's shift. It's a good thing. They're an affront to humanity and it galls me that they waste the oxygen the rest of us need, considering it's a miracle that they even remember HOW to breathe.

I'm picking up my newest guitar (see avatar photo) from the shop after a nice setup and adjustment, and the tech is telling me that it's one of the nicest new model Gibsons that he has played - so I am excited to get it home and play
HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

New GFX card (thanks for the tip Luci!) runs just SO QUIET. Almost completely silent. It's unbelievable.
We'll see how it handles itself with Wolfenstein tomorrow.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Maybe not the head of the pack but my previous card was a 512 MB GeForce 250 GTS. Sizable upgrade.

Zero political/current events arguments at Thanksgiving. There was a close call when one of my cousins declared she would NOT see the Annie remake under any circumstances, but it turned out to be because she doesn't like Cameron Diaz.
They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Ah. Cameron Diaz. As a leg man, it's impossible for me not to enjoy her films. Because reasons.

Day after Thanksgiving here....I'm not shopping, the thought of food is slowly coming back now that it's mid afternoon, and I've nothing of use to do but read more Malazan, drink coffee, and avoid the early planning stages of getting back in shape, which usually involves staring in the mirror.

Hard concept, but i did read a study if get ((/cough)) naked and look at yourself everyday in the mirror.
You are ALOT more likely to get more in shape and put more effort into it.

Friend is taking me out for dinner. Been a horrible week (see Messing With Your Groove) but we're getting dressed up and going out to eat all the things and forget about it for a bit. Really looking forward to it

I went out with some new people for a movie last night. Everything went swimming, so I'm pretty happy about that.

Im slowly becoming convinced that i am a priest of ardata. My car is slowly falling to pieces, but as this happens, more and more spiderwebs appear all over it. I believe they are holding it together
