Ok, this doesn't make sense, someone explain this to me:        Blogs have points, users have points, this is good. Blog points appear to be a total for only the past 30 days, anything before that isn't used for the total and only shows up when people ask the blog nicely.        In other words, only the blogs that are good (popular, read, whatever) recently will have points. The ones that are bad (unpopular, unread, wha...

       Last night I did a stupid (perhaps more then one, but I'm only talking about the one here). Some background will be needed for this to make sense, so background time it is.        Some friends (should they read this they will know who they are and can name themselves if they so choose, if they don't read/name themselves it's not my place to and won't change what I am saying here) gave me Star Wars Galaxies as an ...

       I'm Worthless        I figured it out (although I had some help, I'll admit it), I believe I'm worthless. Looking at it I think I've believed that for years, at least the last 16 which is as far back as my memory works with any reliability. And since actions are driven by belief, no wonder I do the things I do.        This explains so much. I believe I'm worthless, so I refuse ...

       So I'm sitting at my computers minding my own business, reading joeuser while playing starwars galaxies. Nothing all that different there, right? So I just happen to look down and there is a spider crawling across my desk right in front of the keyboard. Blunt object is grabbed, spider is squashed, end of problem. But it was a rather freaky experience all the same. hehe, and now I keep feeling phantom spiders crawling on me, silly nerves.

       I was awoken this morning by my brothers and sister storming into my room to announce that yes, it was christmas. I keep my door locked to prevent just such an occurance, but it didn't seem to matter to them. So down we all go to see what wonders Santa had left under the tree.        Santa, who we all know is a lie and yet pretend isn't while calling each other liars for pretending. I think I could accept it if w...

       So it's almost Christmas. My sister Adele and her husband Nate showed up last night and will be staying until Sunday. They picked Up Grandma on their way here as well, she'll be staying too.        Originally I was going to have to give my bed up for grandma to sleep in, but dad managed to find an old bed somewhere and grandma gets to sleep in it. I'm much happier with this arrangement. My bed isn't all that gre...

       It's been a few days since I've written anything. I tried Anarchy Online for a day or two, it was so so. iamheather joined me for a little while but then turned that around and set me up with a Star Wars Galaxies account. So I've been playing that with her and d3adz0mbie. So far it's a nice game, but it has it's frustrating parts as well. And it keeps me busy and distracted from blogging, bad game. But this isn't a blog about games.   ...

       I first met WILMA (Woman I Love More then Anything) and her husband online in Asheron's Call. At the time they were sharing an account, so I don't know which one I really met first, although I suspect it was her husband. I believe we first ran into each other in early December of 1999. In early January they got a second computer pc and another Asheron's Call account as well. So then we could all play together, was great fun.    &nb...

       I am an obsessive and addictive person. I think it's my personality mostly, as opposed to chemical imbalance type stuff. But that's besides the point.        The point is that I find myself easily obsessed with various things. Sometimes good things, sometimes bad, so I have to be careful with myself. Course everyone does, but that is also besides the point.        I don't gamb...

       Well I sucessfully downloaded Anarchy Online today. As BlueDev mentioned they are doing a free for a year thing, so I figured I might as well try it. 817 megabytes did take a while to download, although BitTorrent did make it easier. Install went fine and all, and I now have three characters sitting in the arrival hall.        As usual when games give me a choice, my character is a girl. Looking through th...

       More ramblings...        My Asheron's Call overview made it to the featured page?! Brad (the allmighty Draginol) took time out of his busy schedule and not only read it, but decided he liked it enough to stick it on the front page! I am incredibly flattered. When I wrote that article it was for a special purpose, and I felt it filled that purpose well. And in doing so, I'm not surprised it only has two comment...

       So where to start? Every tale must have a beginning, but most do not start where they begin. There is a background and situations that bring about the beginning of the tale. So here we shall set the stage for the tale that we shall tell. Or I shall tell, you don't get to tell it, it's not your tale, it's mine        A long time ago in the far away land of Dereth... (cue flashy music) Towards the end of 1999 t...
