A subject escapes me, but it's just random stuff

Administration:
Happy belated birthday to uberspoon!

Shopping:
So, we just had Employee Appreciation weekend. I made three trips to the store during it. I spent over $400 after a 40% (20% on DVDs) discount.

We aren't buying anything until September. :-p Food. Gas. That's about it.

Picked up a book for satyr_mi and a book for margaras last night on my way home. Cheapest trip yet. :-p

My loot from the event?

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Watcher's Guide - Volume 3" - Guide to seasons 5 through 7
Sailor Moon R - Second season, Japanese with subtitles
"The Complete Divine" - Overpriced splatbook
"Expanded Psionics Handbook" - Overpriced steroid abusing splatbook

I could almost count Star Trek: Deep Space Nine seasons 6 and 7 with my loot, but they're more for satyr_mi. I liked DS9 (and Next Generation), but it's not really something I can sit down and watch in large chunks like, oh, say, Buffy. :-p

City of Heroes:
I took the weekend off of CoH. O_O This is dangerous. Normally if I take a break from an MMORPG, I never go back. :-p I'll play tonight, though. I want to get Kung Ru to 25, but that requires eating through 5 bubbles of debt with no missions. :-p It's like level 19, but without Clockwork. :-p

Entertainment:
So, what did I do if not CoH you ask? Simple. I watched every episode of Sailor Moon R. :-p Every. Single. One. Yeah, I'm insane like that. I also watched Spiderman again...

Friday night, after meeting dianak at Borders, we even headed off to watch Spiderman 2! We both agreed that one of the fight sequences alone was worth the price of General Admission.

I've still got one more showing of Spiderman 2 to attend. :-p Provided carebear_flare and I can work out a time for it. :-p Then I will be content to wait for it's arrival on DVD before watching it again. ^_^

satyr_mi is going to kill me over this, methinks. ^_^

Worky Worky:
My right bicep is all wonky from bringing soda and water into work. Four six-packs of 24oz bottles. Bicep no likey me for that. I'm such a wimp. :-p So typing is fun. I can't really lift my arm off the desk without it complaining that I was insane to carry that many bottles on one arm from the middle of our large parking lot into the office and into my cubicle area. :-p

Level 19 was a problem for you? On Saturday I got back into the game at level 19 with one bubble of experience. One Synapse Task Force later and I was 20, had Stamina and a shiny new Single Origin Endurance Reduction Enhancement, and gained my new costume slot, which I used for Thundergirl's civilian identity. Now when she spots trouble, recent high school graduate Amy Albright makes a mighty Thunder Clap, and, BOOM! transforms into Thundergirl. And, yes, I go to all the trouble of pulling down the costume selector, THEN clicking Thunder Clap, THEN selecting the costume EVERY SINGLE TIME. I've started "powering down" back to the secret identity using Steamy Mist's opening animation.

Yes, I am a geek. Yes, I grew Spock ears typing that.

Hehehe. You can actually write a macro that will do the same thing (power_exec Thunder Clap, cc 0 (or something like that)) /cc 0 is your first (char creation era) costume, /cc 1 is your second (1st tailor mission) costume.

And, yes, Level 19 as a scrapper soloing is hard. :-p I don't have the time or patience to do a Task Force with people I don't already know. And I spent almost all of Level 19 in debt because I got cocky taking on Assembler Princes in Land of the Lost.

Although, taking out a Babbage that some silly TF left floating around Skyway City was fun. ^_^ I got pictures of that event. ^_^
