Those are for magazines, apparently. Or dozens of baby food jars filled with teeth. Whatever your interests may be.

Today is my birthday, and I'm in a great mood 
And festivities have yet to start at all. All I've done so far is a little last minute cleaning, and some stuff online.
However, Centz is due any moment to pick me up and take me out for lunch, then we are grabbing snacks for tonight, then if there's some time, Wolfy is buying me a few drinks out, then it's a bunch of friends at mine and Shiara's for a few drinks and good chatting. Am muchly looking forward to it all.

Oh yeah. Facebook said it was your bday last night. Happy birthday!
To celebrate (or rather, the real reason I was posting in this thread): Auckland's weather today? THUNDER.
No, not rain, not storms, 'Thunder'. Fuck yeah. (Though technically it is a 'sever thunderstorm warning' that may later lead to hail, very heavy rain, and F1 tornadoes...but those are STILL COOL and it is more awesome on the weather update to see it just called "Thunder")

What's making me happy is that while I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door - Only this, and nothing more.'
Only I was wrong and it was in fact a copy of The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe XD
I love it when books knock at my door.
EDIT: Another book just knocked on my door. Today is a good day.

Whiskey.
When i'm pissed off i have to hang out with my wires friends doing some stupid thing or another. Whiskey makes it good...if not tolerable.
PS- This is the end of one of those nights.
Maker Mark FTW!!!

How delightfully uncanny. I was just reading the Raven a moment ago. A welcome shift in atmosphere after reading Hans Pfall and The Gold Bug...

Just ordered "The Chronicles of the Black Company", according to a lot of people here a great series, so I'm looking forward to it.
Perhaps I'll read it before Game of Thrones which is already on the top of my to read pile for a couple of months waiting until I finish my Malazan re read.

I am of a mind to strongly encourage your inclination to read Black Company first. It is indeed very similar to Malazan as so many claim, but don't expect it to be on par with Erikson. Mind you, you shouldn't expect anything to be on par with Erikson...
If you are open to recommendations, I was also suggest you pick up The Darkness That Comes Before, of you haven't read it already. It is excellent. The same darkly poetic tone as Erikson.

Happy Gothos is back. The annoying bastard.
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.

Started last night by packing up all my books. They fit into 12 medium sized boxes. Then I packed up random odds and ends I was keeping into two more boxes.
But I was on a roll. So I dismantled my pseudo-closet I bought at IKEA years ago and put it in the junk pile. I am getting rid of the majority of my furniture (an old love seat, an old easy chair, some rickety wooden dining chairs, two wooden TV stands, 3 ikea shelving units, one ikea crappy desk, 5 old ikea lamps), 3 CRT TV's, an old VCR, and an OLD DVD player. So I took all of that stuff that is getting taken away and put it all into one corner of my apt (so when they come to take it away it's all in one place).
Then I organized the few things I am keeping furniture-wise into the old TV room (two tables, 4 newer dining chairs, a computer chair, a stand-up fan). All that is left in my bedroom now is my bed (coming with me), two empty bookshelves (both coming), and my desktop computer (which I am bequeathing to my gf replacing her antiquated Dell).
All that I have left to do is box the kitchen stuff up that I am keeping (and storing at the new place)...which I will do next week. Other than that I am fully ready for the move! I don't have to officially be out till April 1st, but we will be slowly moving stuff over in my gf's car during the first week of March.
This makes me feel really good, since I was dreading the fact that moving date was approaching and it didn't look like I was moving yet. Now my apartment looks as if I am moving this weekend.
I am teh happy.
