Ozzy is next!!!!

Cecilia got the boot tonite. Jonathan and Yul were able to sway caoboi and the dreds chick. This has been a pretty good season so far. The previews promised something about a game changing event...not sure what that was. The teams look pretty well balanced, maybe Yul's team is slightly weaker.

Go Yul!

Nothing Sweeter

I would say, that in this industry, there is nothing sweeter than holding real cards in your hands after the first set has been made. It has a very "this is real" feeling to it, especially after working on projects that never see the light of day.

Goings On

It's been tough to blog lately. I am pretty busy at work and have been playing WoW more than usual as well. Here are some random thoughts -

- I get to write some art requests again. This is something that I rather enjoy. I sometimes have difficulty visualizing things in my head and keeping a consistent image and this exercise regularly is helping with that. Not to mention I get to get some of my friends' characters into the game.

- PING: Tom. The season premier of Gilmore Girls is on tonite on the CW

- I'm going home to visit this weekend.

- I miss working with Brad Defruiter.

- Only 3 more Fridays until my little sister gets married. Yay for a trip to Vegas to ... see the family.

He's good, Yul see!


Yul is a P I M P. He gets stuck on Exile island for winning and the 2nd episode in he finds the immunity. This kid is smart and he's got the ability physically. I know it's late, but he's my horse.

I feel bad for Billy, he's a simpleton, but whatever. Christina is next on that tribe.

104.3 KBIG

This is the most amazing radio station I have heard in awhile. I decided to give the iPod a rest in the car (mostly because I've been having issues finding a frequency that doesn't have a station on it for the adapter).

Last 5 songs

Since you been gone - K.Clarkson
It's my life - No Doubt
Move Ya Body - Nina Sky
I will survive - Gloria Gaynor
I wonder if I take you home - Lisa Lisa & cult jam

This station is like a non-stop dance party. I can't get enough of it. It's practically my iPod playlist. I just have to wait for the Color Me Badd.

Shnibblets

- Saw Assault on Precinct 13 a couple nights ago. I think it was a good movie. There was strong character development and it made me like the characters.

- Thinking about going back to Uther and bringing my 60 NE Druid. It will be rough going from a PVP server to a carebear server, but there are more options for end game raiding....and more importantly, I will get to roll with my friends from the old skool.

- I hope that I do better this week in football than I did last week. I lost to a guy that started Dante Stallworth. More than half of the road teams won last week. Stupid parity.

- There are some entry level positions at my new company. If you are interested in breaking into the industry, this is probably your best bet. Check out the career center at www.ude.com.

- Gencon Socal is going to be a blast.

- Currently playing on my iPod - Around the Way Girl, LL Cool J

Harvey is scary

So, with my badass new cable box, I'm able to get all the movie channels. I happened to see that Donnie Darko was coming on and a certain PhD happens to have this movie ranked rather highly on his top 100 movie list, so I figured I had to watch it.

I went into this thinking that it was going to be sort of like a Memento-esque type movie (meaning, it has a unique plot outline, camera angles, .... just something unique about the film I guess). I was not disappointed.

I don't want to go into details about the movie too much, because well, I wasn't told about it and I was pleasantly surprised.

Once again, Evan knows his stuff and I bow to him and his knowledge. If it wasn't for him, I doubt I would have watched Donnie Darko or Memento.

Horrible Night...

So the air mattress isn't working out, which is why I'm posting this at 330am. I can't get to sleep and I think it might be leaking air somewhere. I can't really pump it up because the pump is super loud.

The Dolphins lost. Yes Heath Miller was out of bounds and the officials should have seen the flag. They stopped Pittsburgh on the 1 yard line the previous drive, no reason to be believe they couldn't do it again. Culpepper was unimpressive in his start.

I tried to do Jailbreak last night and my connection went to crap. Of course the rest of the night it was fine except for like 5 minutes of the escort quest. I got disconnected. I waiting for a GM for nearly 2 hours. The GM said that due to failing the quest by disconnection, he/she couldn't help me. It would have to be escalated to the specialists in order to get the quest completed in my log and that I could just complete the quest again. I asked for it to be escalated and he/she told me that they couldn't help me with that. I asked again to have it escalated to maybe a supervisor and I was told that if I had any feedback, I was to send it to the wowgmfeedback-us email address. I asked again and it was clear that the GM had severed communication because I got the spam of "if you have an issue, please open a ticket". Lousy customer service, IMO.

:(

More Fantasy Football



I think this may be the best team that I have ever drafted in a fantasy football league...ever. It's an 8 person team, I had pick #2.

Almost 7 hours to a little over 5

Switched out the vehicles and am going with the Mitsubishi Galant to see if it can handle the hills of North County a bit better. I shave almost 2 hours off the drive.

I went 2-3 in the actual matches that I played at the GP. One of my wins was against Andre and it was a great match. Both of us recovered from different mana screws during the match. It was well fought and I squeeked it out. I was rusty and probably kept some hands that I shouldn't have (Land, bounce land, signet). It was good to see everyone.

On the way back, I was going about 88 in cruise control and blew past an Arizona Highway Patrolman. I was lucky, he didn't give chase. Then it came to just outside of San Diego. At the Dome Valley exit just before those nasty hills, I pick up a silver Pontiac that seems to want to play some cat and mouse. We go about 80-90 in the hills, going back and forth. I emerge at the front on the last down turn before it starts to get into the residential area. I look at my rearview and the Pontiac is getting pulled over by a CHP. I guess he lost in more ways than one. teehee.

Karma is gonna kick my ass for that last comment, I'll probably get cancer again.

I wanted to apologize to B.Webb. I missed his party, but well, I love you man, but not more than...you know what.
