Updates for the week of 2010-02-28

  • Completed #ME2, somewhat by accident. Now, #amwriting some more: time to knit some sweaters and write some roadtrip. #
  • (Oh, and #ME2 was/is amazing. Even the cheesy parts were amazing. What a great game. What a good story.) #
  • Thanks my lovely wife, @DaphneUn, there's juuust enough soda stashed in the 'gaming fridge' to keep me from a run to the store tonight. #
  • Yes, we have a gaming fridge down in the comfy basement. A largish (waist high) dorm fridge, equidistant between console and gaming table. #
  • Onomatopoeia or it didn't happen! (http://goo.gl/4NDL) – This… actually sounds pretty awesome. #
  • Oh boy, I get to go to the dentist EARLY today. #goodygoodygumdrops #
  • RT @ChuckWendig Ten Rules For Writing Fiction: My (Erm, Current) List. Come. Read. Add your own! http://tinyurl.com/yl7dwkn – Good stuff. #
  • Dentist done; I am temporarily crowned. #stillnotking #
  • Soon, my mouth will be framed by a crown on either side – like the Anduin passing through the Argonath, just before Amon Hen. #nerdentistry #
  • Unless you're a spy, "the drugs are wearing off" is never a good thing. #iamnotaspy #ow #
  • shitmydadsays: "A parent's only as good as their dumbest kid. If one wins a Nobel Prize but the other gets robbed by a hooker, you failed." #
  • Revisions done. Can I get an Amen? Can I get a Hell yeah? #
  • Finished revisions yesterday, then again today (shut up). Sent em off to the superlative Agent S. As @saucy_dryad would say, "WHO'S NEXT?" #
  • Balancing The Stone (http://goo.gl/NIn4) – Wow. Weird coincidence here, as Tim and I were just talking last night about a situation where he #
  • Bugger. Used to be that sharing something in GReader with a long comment meant it wouldn't bounce to Twitter. Now it does. #donotwant #
  • You know what's kind of sad and hilarious? Playing Bioware games makes me want to get back into actual roleplaying in MMOs. #
  • Really nice wallpapers (that's right, wallpapers) http://is.gd/91qeS #
  • Random Average: Mass Effect 2 (spoileriffic) http://bit.ly/9ulSdE #
  • Oh, morning: I wish I could quit you. No, seriously. #
  • Hunting the elusive stand-alone freezer. Price varies wildly for no reason I can fathom. (I know, my life is FASCINATING.) #
  • The most recently read email in my inbox is titled "Your Connecting Point for Meat!" It's from my mom. #
  • RT @BarackObama: Watch highlights from today's #HCR meeting: http://bit.ly/b1nA7w; http://bit.ly/cFnJVS; http://bit.ly/bP01bn #
  • If You Think You Need Some Lovin http://youtu.be/z9KMgg7T_sg (I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.) #
  • I really, really, like what @chuckwendig is saying in his latest post. Read http://is.gd/9g2wz #
  • The good: weekend starting early. The bad: this is due to child throwing up at school. #
  • ME: I think you're the best kid, but I'm biased. KAYLEE: Does biased mean you think someone is best? Cuz I think I'm biased on you too. #
  • Kaylee is pleased to be at a McD play area, but THRILLED that my 'distraction book' is (630+ page) Burning Empires. #
  • Mass Effect 2 on Insanity-difficulty makes babies cry. Because I'm punching them. #
  • I wish everyone I knew made cookies as 'good' as the ones I just made; I'd lose SO MUCH weight. Even the dogs are rejecting them. #
