Summary of yesterday evening
So I went to Booth last night to see my laptop. I like it! It's very fast (photoshop is scary on it) and it looks pretty good. I'm not totally happy with the monitor, but I'll live. It somewhat pixellates images. At least on LiveJournal. Although, looking at them now it may just be that it was the first time I noticed it. Still. The rest of the graphics looked faboo, although I didn't actually watch any game graphics. I could have loaded up Civ 3 to take a look, but I didn't.
Went home after that. Drugged the kitty. He's almost out of antibiotics, so hopefully he's going to be ok now. Installed Final Fantasy XI on my computer. Well, ok, installed PlayOnline and then logged in to my account to cancel all of my Content IDs. Then I uninstalled it.
Installed the Shadowrun character generator. Made a version of my Elf Ex-Nun. Not sure what I think of her. Going to do a few versions of her and then probably re-do it all the next time we do Werewolf. I at least have her backstory more or less intact now. And her motivation and goals. Now it's just a matter of figuring out exactly how I want to put the total package together.
So, today was a FreeStuff day! Some sci-fi/fantasy books got put out in the cafeteria. I nabbed a D20 book which doesn't look too great but isn't horrible. It's about underground critters, which is something that I probably won't use that much but I figured, hey, it was free! I almost nabbed an updated (ok, as of Voyager Season 5) Star Trek Encyclopedia, but didn't. There was also a pair of Battletech RPG sourceboooks. Seeing as that I've never played and will probably never play it, I passed on those.
Tonight I get to go to Borders (the store, rather than the home office I work in) and pick up Angel season 3. If you need me after that, I'll be in Joss Whedon's world.
Ok. Seriously in need of beverage now. I shoulda brought stuff from home. But did I? No. Of course not. x_x
