If you want amusing pictures, there's a thread for that - trying to amuse you isn't part of what's making me happy

Mrs. QT brought me a 40oz bottle of the Macallan LE 2009 (scotch) from the duty free AND a King Size Peanut Butter Twix. Booyah!

Also, the new SSX comes out today for xbox. Squee? SQUEEEEE!

Oh and tonight we begin moving my stuff to Mrs. QT's place. In the immortal words of Shang Tsung "It has begun."

Matt mention something about our cat, Kalam today at work and his reg asked him where we got the name from. Matt said 'It's from my fiancee's favourite book series.' His reg said, 'Malazan Book of the Fallen?"

So, that means our vet and Matt's reg have both recognised our cats names

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

This morning I finally broke down and ordered OST from our Amazonion friends in Canada. They suggested I spend a few dollars more to get the free shipping, so I looked, got advice (thanks!), and settled on Bakker - this is my first of his works. Once in the checkout I find that my free shipping is null and void since I had the nerve to live in USA. Curse you international shipping! 2 weeks wait to travel to me. I bet Abyss is responsible for this mess.

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.

Mrs. QT messaged me that she got me a copy of SSX.

Oh man, I am SO fucking pumped to play this game tonight! I might be more excited than Loki has been about ME3.

THAT'S how pumped I am!

I ordered from amazon Canada to California, and with the normal shipping I still received it within like 3 days (faster than amazon.com sometimes, actually). The only problem is they use DHL and they won't drop it on your doorstep the first time, so you have to sign a slip and wait another day, unless you're at home when it arrives. Still I'd be very surprised if you had to wait the full 2 weeks.

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Thanks for the optimism

And this is why I have it shipped to my office, so it can come at 9 AM and I can sweat bullets all day waiting for a chance to read it in the parking lot as soon as I leave (that;s what happened with TCG, but I will have more control over this time)

This is weird, and opposite to what happens in Canada. Since Amazon.ca ships to us VIA Canada Post In-Country...but if I order from .com they sometimes use DHL once it crosses the border and I run into that issue you mentioned. It's almost like amazon corporate punishing us for cross-border ordering.

Darcy has a sad face for a stomach in that comic, which made me laugh more than the comic itself.

played soccer today, for the first time since I sprained my ankle 3 weeks ago.
It took me 3 days before I could treat it properly, and I refrained from putting any serious pressure on it for 2 solid weeks.

seems to have paid off, since I was able to run as much as needed today.

I'm not sure where to say this but I'll put it here...

I've just found out the lead singer in my band is getting with the violin player. I love them both dearly so I'm glad they've got together

However, I'm worried what it might do to the band.

Heres to hoping it goes well

At least until we get famous

Loki: CHALLENGE ACCEP.........

Matador: NO!

Loki: Humph! But,,,,

Matador: Kel, NO ONE is more obsessed over a game then you are over ME3 right now. You've been wearing your Garrus shirt for almost a week striaght...

Loki: Yeah, but I wash it...

Matador: .....you keep playing with your Shepard figurine which you haven't even opened and yet somehow still manage to pretend he is running to save the Alliance soldiers from the threat of a giant turtle. You called to see if you could set up your xbox at the library so you wouldn't have to miss any gaming time. You sighed and said 'I love you' when you walked into the lounge today and I know you were saying it to your copy of ME2 and not me. And sometimes, just sometimes, you hesitate when you go to say I love you and I'm certain it's because you have to remind yourself not to say Garrus or Kaidan. So DO NOT ACCEPT THAT CHALENGE!

Loki:........perhaps you have a point............... But I would have won, you know.

Matador: I know, sweety. I know.
