charloweenyesterday I dyed white fabric yellow. I also went to school, came home again (after writing an exam) and sat around. In the afternoon Reed and I went shopping. I bought dye, he bought a cheapie software package full (er... there were five) of old games... like Alpha Centauri (which we already had) and the Alpha Centauri 'Alien Crossfire' expansion pack.
Reed and I played one hell of a lot of Alpha Centauri back in the day. It's like Civilization but on a far-off inhospitable planet. I would always play the Spartans and get a kick out of crushing the UN Peacekeepers' faction very quickly.
It was worth the $20 to get the expansion pack, because now we can play as futuristic, living-on-an-alien-planet PIRATES. The other factions are communists, cultists, 'Data Angels' and fucking pirates. The colony names are stuff like Shantytown, Crossbone Way, Safe Haven, Deadman Tavern... arrr.
The coolest bit is that it's Alien Crossfire, right? So it turns out the planet isn't actually abandoned, that there's two opposing *alien* factions that have their own war whilst the humans that have crashed are infighting in their own special way. It's pretty exciting.
I was at work for 9 hours on Saturday and I think I'm still tired.
So far this morning it took el instructor 22 minutes to tell us to create a folder on the hard drive that has our name as the folder name. 22 MINUTES. To say "I want you to create a folder on C: with your name as the folder name." He was lecturing about some roundabout crap and finally got to the point that he started at 20 minutes before.
Class began at 8:45 and by 10:55 (by my computer) we still haven't even touched the material in the beginning of the book. [bash head]
I found a copy of Dracula on the Project Gutenberg db and am reading Dracula in class. After school I will bug Meg/rent Kill Bill. Tomorrow I will install Alpha Centauri Alien Crossfire on my computer and be all piratical.
