I only want to be the one you love

What did I do Monday night? Trying to remember...

Oh yeah, played D&D with the guys. It was fun. Well, until the end. Michael's character died. That's my second PC kill (ever), both of which have been in this campaign. The first was Caleb's orc, who opened himself to two attacks of oppurtunity when he decided to pursue a fleeing goblin at full speed (run). One of them was a crit; the other, just a hit. This case was slightly different. The party was attacked in the middle of the night by a powerful demonic construct intent on recovering the powerful artifact they carry. He was really powerful - eye rays, five melee attacks, and Regeneration/Construct traits. Michael was the only one who could hurt him. It didn't end well. Everyone was seriously injured. Of course, Michael later called me to point out important revisions in 3.5 that would have prevented a lot of the difficulty in the encounter, and would have definitely prevented the death. I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the situation, but am probably *not* going to change anything.

Work yesterday was okay. Worked 8 - 3, but I was in charge (it was only me and Allison) from 8 - 10. Handled things okay; we did get one fairly crazy rush, but got everything out quickly enough. Dave didn't come in 'til 11:30 or so, so there were a few things we hadn't done yet. He was just being really bitchy; I think the fact that we were almost out of popcorn chicken, lettuce, and eggs. He blamed it on employee theft, which I'm questioning. I don't doubt that there are people there who would steal, but... lettuce? Processed egg patties? Raw popcorn chicken? We finally went through three more modules in the Ast. Manager handbook, and he told me that next week, he'll have me in a shirt and tie and running a 2 - 5 shirt, to see how it goes. I'm... fairly nervous. I mean, I think the crew will help me out. I've worked there for a long time, which is both good and bad. On the good side, I know what's it like to work any given position, and the crew knows that - it's not like Dave, where we feel like he can't empathize with what we're going through, and he's just making unreasonable demands. I'm also friends with the vast majority of the crew, so they'll respond better as well. On the negative side, though, they're less likely to follow me and might think they can get away with more, since we're friends. I'll have to walk that line very carefully.

Didn't do much Tuesday night; took a nap, then played a lot of SO3 - I've been powering up in the plains with some harpies and odd dodo-like birds that have a powerful earthquake attack. Been having to use tactics, which is odd - brute force doesn't really work, unlike most RPGs.

Today was a fun day at school. Chem went alright, and I finally noticed the girl next to me's rack. On a related note, she's really cute. But anyway...

Intro to Fine Arts was fairly unnoteworthy. We're talking about the High Renaisssance right now, which is pretty cool. I need to review what I missed before our next test, which is next Wednesday. I also have to do a critique soon.

I played a game of DDR between FA and CS, but I'll do all the DDR in one clump (it all runs together anyway).

Had a test in CS today. It was fairly easy. I did it all in hot pink, while the guy next to me was making a crack about being so primitive - carving wood to mark a piece of processed wood pulp, or something like that. I think he's just upset about the computer thing from earlier, which really just made him look like a whiny bitch. Finished the test within half an hour, so I went and played DDR again before going to probability.

Probability was fun. We've got a test Monday, so we reviewed today. The girl behind me (I'll learn her name one day) was lost a few times, so I helped her out a little. I should give her my email or something for whenever she needs help. Stayed after and talked to Dr Snyder about a proof he mentioned in class, and we worked through it. Didn't realy do anyting after that, just went home.

I decdied to take the Campus Loop bus back to my truck, 'cause my legs are really tired - the constant DDR and work hasn't really given them a chance to refuel. I probably won't play any DDR Friday (yeah, right).

These three people were sitting on the far side of the bus loop, but the RR12 bus just passed them by; they ran after it, to no avail. They were quite upset, vocally so, and the girl even made a comment about having to wait another half hour for another bus. Of course, another RR12 bus showed up within three minutes. Jonathan, on the other hand, my friend from Diversions, missed the Post Road bus, and would have been stuck there another half an hour to forty-five minutes, but I offered him a ride home. Took him home, came home, that kinda thing. It gets a little fuzzy here, but I ate some cereal, then basically fell asleep.

I woke up about 9:50 or so, to the phone ringing. It kept ringing. Neither Janelle nor Mom was answering it, and it was really pissing me off. They were *right* there. I hate that noise so much. Then it rang again, and they answered it after a while. Gyp came into my room, and I sent him out. He then started whining - I couldn't tell if he wanted out or into Janelle's room, but Janelle was just ignoring it. I called her on it, and she responded with something about it being my fault, because I bothered him or something equally idiotic. I wanted to smack her.

Then, on that show on G4TechTV where they just play head-to-head, the first game was DDRMAX2. It was pretty pathetic. They were doing stuff on light and basically just sucking. It made me wish I was on the show, just to show off my mad skills.

Speaking of which, had fun playing DDR today. We can't play doubles anymore, because they're not bolted together anymore - they start to seperate to much. I tried playing Nonstop/Random All/Doubles; my second song was Paranoia Rebirth; I was going it, until the gap between the pads got too much and I couldn't do it anymore. It's a shame - that machine is in such good condition, otherwise. Charlie and I also played some Nonstop/Random All; our first song was Max 300. I couldn't do it - I still don't have the stamina, but I'm getting close. I also had it on 1.5x, which just wasn't working. He pulled it off, though. Most impressive. We drew a fair crowd playing during lunch.
