    an illustrated kids book of poetry about Dwarf Fortress? hm. If I knew anything about Dwarf Fortress that might be fun.

    I take no responsibilities for mental reelings due to Hrmblargh. Know only that stepping foot there renders your sanity forfeit.

    So I got up late today and while out doing some errands decided I wanted a ham sandwich for lunch. So I bought the stuff, then ended up stopping by Taco Bell for a cheesy gordita crunch anyway. I ate the sandwich a few hours later.

    Its now been five hours since then and I'm still not hungry. But if I don't eat something soon I won't be able to eat anything due to a medication I'm taking making eating right before bed a bad idea. So I'm frozen with indecision.

    I don't understand.
    Sims 3 University ad shows two girls kissing in college and puts "EXPERIMENTING" in big-ass letters.

    "I WANNA BUY THIS THIS GAME SUPPORTS GAY RIGHTS"

    excuse me, but uh. The Sims franchise has always allowed homosexual relationships. why are you flipping out again?

    Also, portraying it as experimenting isn't the most positive way to show it.

    I mean, I understand where they were coming from when they put that up there, but it just doesn't seem right. I dunno.

    In other news, I am realizing just how much of True Love I have fixed up grammatically. There are a few typos here and there that I'm catching (and promptly fixing!), but for the most part, I'm almost done. I'm...I'm almost done...

    So apparently we tried to go to sleep around 4pm, and haven't been able to sleep longer than an hour at a time. It's currently 1:30 am and though I don't feel particularly horrible, I do still feel absolutely exhausted mixed with dehydrated. So far I've been able to keep a few ounces of gatorade down for about half an hour, so I'm hoping I can slowly re-hydrate and then be able to sleep a bit more.

    Talked to dad again and he said it took about 24-36 hours for him to start feeling well enough to do things again, so maybe hubby will get lucky and feel well enough to work tomorrow.

    Being a new Sims 3 owner I decided to see what was up with this new expansion. The segment in question occurs at around 00:30 for those wondering. May not be suitable for people easily offended by keg parties:

    Wow, that's pretty dumb. Don't they do all school lessons in High German where you live as well? The ironic bit is that I actually spoke High German through most of school and teachers tended to love me because I was the only one in the building without a Swiss accent.

    Hmmmm, a "bad time to be alone", eh?... How 'bout when you need to fold the sheets? Or when you realise too late that you've run out of tp? Or when you have an itch on your back and can't quite reach it? Or when you need someone to hold your hair back while you vom-- Ok maybe I'll stop now.

    Hubby feels fine but I still feel general malaise. Certainly not well enough to drive him to work so I'm gonna be trapped in my shitty hotel all day today WOOOOO!

    Trying to do a project for a friend who has no idea of what you're doing/how you're doing it is maddening. I finish something and then I get 50 emails "OH CAN YOU DO THIS?!?!?!" No. I can't. That's crazytalk. The program can't do that. "WELL CAN YOU DO THIS????"

    NO I CAN'T GOD DAMMIT I WANT THIS SHIT OVER!

    Recovery update: everything except for my ladybits has proven that it still works. (I'm supposed to not test those until a followup on the 18th.) I can eat normal food again! FUCK YES!

    brb, Chipotle run

    In what capacity do your ladybits even need to work right now?

    Because mine are only partially functioning right now and I am totally okay with that.

    Do not use Chipotle to test your ladybits. The turbocharger is not THAT effective.

    P.S. What do you mean the closest Chipotle is in York and they even get two but we can't have one?! RAGE.

    They don't need to function, per se, they're just the only part I haven't tested yet.
    Thank you. In other news, "laughing so hard it hurts" now involves laughing much harder. :D

    Sitting next to a mountain (well more of a heap since he's very wide but not tall) of a gaming journalist, who is making me mentally tick of every cliched Republican box while he's spouting off stupid and untrue talking point after talking point to an unfortunate and all too polite Mexican tech journo.
    He speaks like someone I have on ignore writes. He's very polite about it, but it's just amazing how everything he says is either untrue or just deeply misunderstood. For some reason he just said that they still test atomic bombs outside Las Vegas before going back to the whole Obama smuggling guns into Mexico thing.

    So after that follow up will the conversation be similar to those last two words in your post?

    You: Fuck?
    Doctor: Yes!
