well, we finally got some magestry rules changes up in the house. said it once, i'll say it again. giving the thief more powerful backstab, and more uses of it, does not fix it. yeah, it's a GOOD idea to balance the thief against the fighter in combat terms [ / sarcasm]. bah, whatever. now i don't have to use my fighting to hurt dire elves. also looks like i'm even farther away from assassin that i was prior. it'll be at least another four games before i have the new prereqs. 40 SP for another thieving 4, 50 for thieving 5, 30 for gather componants, 40 for tox 0, 15 for tox 1, 15 for tox 2. so yay for 190 more SP. well, this is what happens when you go with one tree for five grades, then decide you want another. oh well, at least i'll have hypmotize now.
all in all, i think i'm liking the new rules. though sturdiness seems a little overbalanced, and maybe broken? but i do like how great parry doesn't work while you're sleeping. muahahaha. |

well, this weekend was....odd. on friday, D20M was played, and fun had by all. saturday, my roomate gifted me with his blender which he no longer uses (as well as a portion of a certain captain....). the catch: it hadn't been cleaned since january, so it was encrusted with semester-old creatine residue. for those who don't know, creatine is also known as whey protein, and is used in protein shakes, which my roomate consumes with gusto. so i cleans the blender, and oh god was it the worst thing ever. seriously, it smelled worse than cat shit combined with rotten eggs (which is clearly the worst scent in the world). so after i clean it, my throat starts getting sore. whatever, like i don't even care. i go out that night to see hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (awesome movie, especially if you've read the books. in fact, only if you've read the books. lamers need not apply), and my throat gets sorer, and i start getting the chills/ a fever. instead of driving back to westfield, i somehow end up in huntington, at my house. i deffinitely do not remember driving home). cue ibuprofin and sleep in a comfortable bed. at this point, i'm pretty fucked up. i can barely think, and it feels like i'm drunk off my ass. so the next morning i get up and blow my nose, and out comes a GIANT CHUNK OF CREATINE. seriously, disgusting. the creatine had gotten all up in my sinus piece, and was making me quite sick. did i mention that was the only thing i could smell all of saturday? yeah. so that's my weekend. getting sick because of sinuses clogged with crusted whey protein. i kinda wanna kill myself a lil bit. |

well, i'm bored, so ima bore all of you with some philosophy. tonight's quote brought to you by Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
"Quantum mechanics is certainly imposing, But an inner voice tells me that it is not yet the real thing. The theory says a lot, but does not really bring us any closer to the secret of the 'old one'. I, at any rate, am convinced that HE is not playing the dice." -The Born-Einstein Letters, trans. I. Born, P.91
oh, here's one from Jean-Paul Satre (1905-1980) "In this world where i engage myself, my acts cause values to spring up like partridges) -Being and Nothingness, trans. Hazel E. Barnes, P. 38
and, because i'm just that bored, one from Epicurus (341BC-270BC)
"We say that pleasure is the starting-point and the end of living blissfully. For we recognize pleasure as a good which is primary and innate. We begin every act of choice and avoidance from pleasure, and it is to pleasure that we return using our experience of pleasure as the criterion of every good thing." -Letter to Menoeceus, Hellenistic Philosophy, P. 62
"If ignorance is bliss, you must all be real happy" -Nick Allen |

| [ | music |
| | Iron Maiden- Cross Eyed Mary | ] | so i figures to myself, i has this big book full of philosophy (namely, the Dictonary of Philisophical Quotations). i barley ever use this thing for class, so i guess i'll put it to good use enriching all you guys. so, here it is. your philosophical quote of the week. this one brought to you by Soren Kierkegaard (pronounced Zorn Kierkagor), 1813-1855.
"If subjectivity is truth, the conceptual account of truth must include an expression of the antithesis to objectivity, a mark of the fork in the road where the way swings off; that expression will serve at the same time to indicate the tension of the subjective inwardness. Here is such a deffinition of truth: the truth is an objective uncertainty held fast in an appropriation process of the most passionate inwardness, the highest truth attainable for an EXISTING individual". -Concluding Unscientific Postscript, trans. D.F. Swenson and W. Lowrie, p. 182. |

so i just gave securitas security (ironically, a security firm...) a call. i'm hoping beyond hope that i'll be able to get a job there for the summer. that'd be pretty cool, being a security guard. things should be easier, what with my CJ major and prior security experience. |

BAERIC ROCKS THE DEATH TOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!! ahem. so yeah, who else but this guy gets 3 deathly visitations in one event? in an 11 hour period? yeah. so i'm up to 8 now, depending on the luck of the rolls, i think i have 2 left. max. so i think it's time to make up a backup character.
so, magestry rocked, as per usual. i think i hate Vater even more every time i see him. honestly, every single thing this guy does makes me hate him. especially existing. i think the best part, though, must be the fact that i can now resist kalim's spells, which means i can almost resist lucian and haku's spells. haha, just TRY affecting this guy.
well, time to work on one of my four papers. peace.

| | serenity trailer | ] | man, serenity needs to be out. now. instead of september 30th. for all you uninformed, Serenity is the motion picture version on one of my favorite TV series' ever, Firefly. i just saw the trailer, and....oh god.
and apparently, my bank decided they needed $25 from my account far more than i did, and decided to take it for their own for some reason i'm sure i'll find out at a later date. the bad part is, this means i'm $25 short for magestry, what with being a poor, underpaid state worker and all. so, uh, anyone wanna help a baeric out? |

spring weekend was pretty meh. highlights include sean calling two different mcdonald's drive-thru operators fags, on two seperate nights, for not having the dollar menu, jungle juice, and of course, airsoft upgrades. not to mention seeing shana et al.
sean dey is officially the man for driving up to wolcott at 8pm just to work on my gun and the pumpkin rifle. for free, no less.
got to see shana and her crew, which was awesome. i got a ninja box full of smacks. not to be confused with smack, which is apparently comepletely different from the breakfast cereal of similar nomenclature. live n' learn. i'm totally gonna fax japan tomorrow to tell the makers of the delightful rice candy that they rock. i can see it now....
sid: Neek, did you fax japan sometime today? me: what? that's crazytalk, sid! sid: oh, okay. someone from japan sent you a fax saying "domo arrigato". me: crap, how much do i owe you? sid: $70 |
