This is the "Nothing in particular" section, right?

Well, I just won a computer from my work! To understand why this is a big deal, allow me to list some facts:

  • Orion hooked me up with a special edition of Borderlands that I have played for a total of one hour so far.

  • Grand Theft Auto IV. I own it. I have not played it.

  • Mass Effect was a birthday present. It's CD hasn't known the warm inviting softness of a disc drive.

  • I was generously given a year of City of X at HeroCon. I've already lost 2 going on 3 months of it.
  • I purchased Lord of the Rings Online in 3 months intervals. I've invested 4 hours via work computer since this.
  • 4Chan became entertaining to me recently. A fact irrelevant at work.

  • It's really hard to keep up on television when you can only ethically choose shows so low-content you don't lose productivity when you leave them on.

  • My old computer busted literally one week after I had finished upgrading it to a "Gaming Rig".

  • I've played TF2 at its full potential on my home computer. Once. Ever.

  • You people don't see enough of me.

  • The internet is for ... hm. Nevermind.

This is incredibly materialistic, admittedly. On that level, however, it's been the best thing to happen to me in months, so I had to share my joy with all of you. Life is good...

^_^

City of X soon!

Gratz! Hope you have fun with it!

I had to pay for my new computer, but boy am I glad I did.

I'm sure the new hardware is a factor, but Windows 7 comes up sooo much faster!

Now all I need to do is figure out how to stop playing on it until stupid-o'clock in the morning!

Wow. Congratulations!

Never argue with stupid people. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
