Hmmmm . . . LAN party next saturday . . . at my house. That should be interesting cuz not only will I have the regular 6 or 7 guys but Randy's sister is comming too, and maybe AJ. So that means a total of 8 to 10 people and at least 6 computers with a possibility of actually getting 10 of them. This should be interesting, especially finding a place for them all (some furniture may have to be moved). Oh well it'll be fun.
Hee hee, just added to my dice collection today. The rest of the dice I ordered finally came in. I even got an extra one cuz they had problems and shipped it out very late so I ended up getting another d4. It's kinda interesting though because it's unlike any d4 I have ever seen before and I've seen a lot of dice variations for the different ones. (Sam beware because you do realize that as soon as I get back to Oregon I'm going to be sharing all my new treasures with you ^_^)

Hee hee hee, I finally found this funny Doom Comic Review again. This has got to be one of the funniest reviews I have ever read. You should really read it, no, no, really, you'll fall out of your seat laughing at this thing.
A line from the comic, just to give you an idea of how good it is:
"Now I'm radioactive! That can't be good!"

Just had something rather interesting happen to me. Chris and I went to Papa Murphies to pick up some pizza for dinner. We ordered our pizza (one pizza) and were waiting for it. The chick behind the counter called my name and I went to pick up my pizza, so did some other lady. We were both confused when we saw the chick holding 2 pizzas rather than just one. The lady told her that she had ordered only one pizza and the chick said that she had 2 pizzas for the same name. Then we finally realized that the two of us had the same name. It was rather confusing up until that point. We then took our respective pizzas and went on our way. I very rarely run into another person with the same name as me which made this kinda funny.
I managed to pick up my card list from home on the way to getting the pizza. So I can now report to you the total number of cards in my collection.
Yay! Saria blogged. She changed her layout too. Very spiffy.
6254 This includes a heck of a lot of Star Wars, some Magic cards, lots of Marvel cards (Spiderman, X-Men, etc...), a fare amount of baseball cards (that I collected up until I was 9), Wyvern cards, Nintendo cards, and lots of miscellaneous cards that I collected when I was younger. It's kinda funny cuz I always remembered starting my card collection around 5th grade because I would forget that I had a good chunk of baseball and miscellaneous cards stashed in my room that I've had for a looooong time, which means that I've actually been collecting cards since before I can remember. That's probably a good reason why I have so many.

Nani? o.O; Someone else from Stockton? At least he has good tast in music.
On a final note for the moment, my card count will have to wait a little while longer cuz I'm no longer at home and I don't remember the number (only that it was big). If I make it home before midnight I shall tell it to you then.
Wow, today's Astronomy Pic of the Day is rather cool. It's a solar powered, remotly controled aircraft. It's kinda cool looking.

Woohoo!!! I just got me a new Homie. AJ gave him to me, apparently they have a new Homie selection at S-Mart. I shall have to see if I can ge me some more Homies cuz Homies are cool, word up.
Ok well back to normal speak (if there is such a thing) I gotta say Thanks to AJ for bringing me this wonderful treasure (hee hee, Homies are cool).

Accomplishment of the Day: I finally managed to count up all of my cards in my collection (including the ones I keep forgetting that I have). It actually didn't take as long as I thought it would. Then again I've spent around 2.5 hours counting just 1 box but hey it was a little over half my collection. The other half I had already counted over the past 2 days. However all this counting doesn't mean anything right now cuz I'm not telling any of you people the number until tomorrow (which is when I had planned on unveiling it). So you'll have to tune in tomorrow for it (it'll probably be the only exciting, well maybe not exciting, but rather the only thing I have to blog). Instead I have a different number for you to amuse yourselves with today.
Number of things on Dini's bedroom wall:
Yay 4-day weekend for me!! *Tries to look cool and calm* I'm ok, really. The only thing that sucks about it is that I'm really not going to want to work next week after having 4 days off. Not much I can do about it.
172 This includes posters, pictures, cards, a pin-up board (I did not include the stuff on the board in the count), a hat rack, calender pictures, computer print-outs, a few of my drawings, and some other miscellaneous things. Mind you this number does not included the number of push pins used to put all this stuff up with (or pieces of tape for that matter). If I had included that stuff the number would be up in the 500s. Besides push pins shouldn't count towards something like that anyways (unless you want people to think you have a heck of a lot of stuff on your walls, but I consider that cheating).

Anyways more counting today, I figured after yesterday I might as well give you some more numbers while I continue to count my cards (I've gotten through the binders and small boxes, now all I have left is the big box, which has more cards than all of those combined). A daunting task but I'm up to it. Alrighty then, here are a few other things I've counted today. I ended up counting a few of my toys today:
That should be enough for now, enjoy.
Another boring day at work, at least I get Friday-Monday off so I get a chance to rest. *sigh* I'm really not looking forward to work tomorrow, I don't particularly like this job. I'm glad it's almost over.
135 Action Figures
31 Lego Sets
40 Micromachine vehicles, 38 Micromachine figures
4 Video Game systems, 25 Video Games (I would have closer to 50 but I sold about 22 of my NES and SNES games).

Anyways Sam I asked for KKJ 7-11 for you on Monday so tomorrow I'll go and pick them up (I would have done it today but I was busy searching for Worms World Party so by the time I could have gotten there Ruth would have been gone). It doesn't really matter anyways since I won't see you for another several weeks anyways.
Mooooving on, for some reason I've gone into a counting craze (yes that's right I said counting). For some odd reason I seem to think it would be fun and interesting to count a few of the things I've collected. Namely my card collection. Now don't ask me why, but for some reason I'd like to know just exactly how many cards I have in my collection. Sam's seen my collection, she know's I have a lot and actually, she didn't even see all of it. So sometime in the near future I shall have a complete and acurate count of cards in my collection.
To tide you over until then let me give you a different count, the number of dice I have (excluding the few pairs of fuzzy dice I have):
Ah yes another boring day at work and would you believe that I couldn't find a single copy of Worms World Party anywhere in Stockton? Not a single copy anywhere, it's sad. So I ordered it online instead ^_^;;; hee hee worms is too cool to pass up. I mean come on, where else can you fight against your friends with a group of worms who use Old Ladies, Flying Sheep, and Holy Hand Grenades to blow each other up?
Thinking of school, since I can't seem to find you online at any point in time I'll just ask you now. Did your mom (or is your mom) going to get you a t.v.? If not it would be beneficial for me to know soon cuz my last paycheck is comming up and if you don't get a t.v. then I will.
313 This includes normal dice, round dice, 100-sided dice, funky shaped dice, dragon dice (which a quite spiffy looking), the 6-sided die of death (it's huge), glow-in-the-dark dice, casino dice, loaded dice, oversized dice, increadibly tiny dice (.5cm to a side), and more. I've got more on the way including bone dice and double dice (it's a d6 inside of a d6. Save's time on rolls requireing 2d6). Why do I have so many dice? Why not? Dice are cool, I can' help but collect as many cool ones as possible. I even have a chain-mail dice bag now to use with them.

Hee hee, this is cool someone was searching for Squirrelman and found my blog. The fact that someone was even looking for Squirrelman is cool.

Ack, it's not working anyways, somthing about "bandwidth stealing" is popping up instead. >.< Well I can probably get the eps. from Sam later. Oh well.
Ooooo . . . more Gravitation episodes. Too bad I missed getting episode 6. *<-- is being really slow this weekend*

Hmmm. . . these last two weeks of work will be interesting. Monday I have off because my department isn't working, Friday I have off because they have to take inventory, and Monday I have off because it's Labor Day. So I have a 3 day work week followed by a 4 day weekend followed by a 4 day work week. On the plus side I've gotten a lot of overtime for just this last week so that should compensate for the lack of work (which is a good thing).
Ok well I'm off now, time to play Star Wars after a long day at work. Well ok, so I got off easy and only had to work 7 hours instead of 8 but still I've been up since 2:30 this morning and most likely won't get to sleep until about 5 am. Oh well, I've got monday off.
Wow, Sam if you had just told me yesterday I would have asked Sachi to give me 7-11 of KKJ at the same time I asked for the whole series ^.^;;; Oh well it's still cool, I'm heading to Grapevine on Monday to pick up my copies I can ask for another copy of 7-11 while I'm there (and even if I weren't going it's not like it's that far away). Another cool thing, Sachi said she could get me Eva DVD's for $23 instead of the list price of $30 (yay for easy anime connections). It definately pays to know the people who own Grapevine.
As for the poll, when you change the options it means that people can vote again. They can also vote again every 2 weeks so as long as it's been 2 weeks people can vote.

Ok, I gotta make a decision here and I've been thinking about it all day with no conclusion. I can't seem to decide if I should go in with Chris and buy a Playstation 2 or if I should keep saving my money that I've been earning from work. If I get a PS2 I won't really be able to play with it much until winter break/term (that thing would so be comming with me to Oregon come winter term when I have time. Besides FFX is comming out Dec or Jan. This would also give me and Sam a DVD player for Winter term, which would be cool). So there's my dilemma, pay $200 for PS2 w/ controllers (x2) and memory cards (one for each of us), Chris would be on his own game wise cuz I don't want much of anything except FFX. Although they do have Crazy Taxi for PS2 and apparently Space Channel 5 is comming out for it here soon. Soooo . . . help me out here, should I be a smart college student and save my money or should I spoil myself (and Chris) and reward myself for the hours of overtime I've been putting in and get a PS2?

GRRRRR . . . I did it again, I turned off my alarm clock while still asleep and was a half hour late to work -.- *sigh* I just can't win. I did the same thing on Saturday too when I had to work. It sucks my sleep lately hasn't been restfull at all yet for some reason I'm still as awake as normal (well almost normal). Every time I go to sleep I wake up every half hour to an hour and feel like I'm wide awake. Then it takes me 15 to 20 minutes to get back to sleep. And considering that I'm only getting about 4 hours of sleep a night that's not good. I'm also having strange dreams that a twisted replays of what I've done during the week or over the summer. That isn't helping things any. When I wake up in the early morning I'm wide awake as if I've gotten enough sleep (even though I know darn well that I haven't) and instead of being tired in the early morning and awake after lunch (which is at 7:30am for me) like normal I'm now awake before lunch and about to fall asleep afterwords. If I try to sleep in the afternoon I get the same thing I get at night, woken up every hour to strange dreams and no explanation other than that as to why I'm awake. It's very frustrating and causing me to be completely dead to the world (more so than normal) when I am actually able to sleep. Hopefully this will stop soon cuz I can't afford to be a half hour late to work every day.

Hee hee, Ray from work let me drive a forklift today. He was giving me forklift lessions near the end of the work day. It was kinda cool. I want to drive a forklift more often, it's more exciting than what I do normally. Ray's cool, he's one of the only people who talks to me on a regular basis. He's also one of the few people at work I actually like.
Ok, this has got to be one of the oddest layouts I've seen so far.

I have just witnessed one of the strangest, funniest, most hentai, non-graphic anime. It's called Ebichu the Housekeeping Hampster. I feel kinda sorry for Ebichu though, she keeps getting the crap beat out of her because she just doesn't understand and keeps saying the wrong things about her owner. There are 50 million translation notes before each episode but thats a good thing cuz there are a lot of double meanings in the show. Over all it's kinda funny though.
Sam if you ever see me next term it'll most likely be at around 3 am when I stumble home for sleep (at least in the later part of the term anyways). Then again considering that you only get sleep about once every three days it may be slightly more often than that, but not by much.

Wow, I'm really behind the times on blogs. Just noticed the change in address for bird. I really need to keep up on these things.
I wish I had someone giving me money for a PS2. Taki I envy you. Hmmm . . . come to think of it I should probably get working on getting my Tag board up. I should probably check to make sure I have all the stuff for it though.
You should really blog. It's been a looooong time and I'm sure interesting stuff has to have happened to you by now.
Mmmmm . . . Lunar 2. I wanted to play that game, I was going to buy it but ended up giving my pre-order away cuz I didn't have the money for it anymore.
It's about time you blogged. I was blogging more than you and I was working the same schedule. In fact I'm still working the same schedule -.- and you get to have fun. Well for a week anyways, then it's off to school with you. Then I'll still be making money so HA! (We just won't mention the massive amounts of overtime I'll no doubt have to do).
Ok Poe what is with you and the creepy pictures? No, wait don't answer that, I don't think I want to know.
Yay people have been blogging on SM. I likes the new layout too.
Ok well that takes care of that. Now that I have finally looked through blogs again and have had a chance to say things to people.
Wow someone was actually searching for "Spasticity" and found my blog. Thats a first, I've searched for Spasticity before and never found it.
Hee hee, another person has been added to the list of people who think my layout is strange but cool. Yay for odd layouts.
Ok well since this is the first time I've really had to check blogs in (what is it) months now I've just noticed the spiffy layout. I'm really liking that pic, where did you find it anyways?
You know, just about everyone get's made fun of for going to a community college but no one really means it. Everyone here who goes to the CC here is made fun of, that is until they get to a normal college and have all of their core credits done and everyone is envious of them cuz they don't have to do any general ed. Community college can be a good thing, it saves you lots o' money in the end too.

Hmmm . . . school isn't that far off and boy am I looking forward to it. Shocker I know, but I'm not all that thrilled by my job. Granted I'm being paid well but I've also got a lot of overtime hours and I have to work tomorrow (ick). On the plus side I'm getting time and a half for the overtime. Let's see 15 hours x $12.25 an hour = a good amount of money. Ah oh well, money is good, I can handle working.
Ok apparently this is just complain about work day cuz I'm not done yet, deal with it. No one said you had to read this anyways. Moving on the last thing that I've gotten out of work is a hatred for two things: one, the sunrise. Ok so I hated the sunrise before now cuz it usually meant I hadn't gone to bed yet and still had architecture homework to do. Now it means I still have 6 (or 8) more hours of work to do haveing only completed about 2 hours of work. Don't get me wrong, sunrise's are beautiful and cause the buildings to turn a nice shade of orange, but the fact that they exist is what I hate the most. Can't the sun just apear in the sky and skip the "rise" part of it? Just get it over with and become day already.
Ok well that should take care of "Dini's Complaint Corner" I have nothing more to complain about at the moment. Come to think about it I don't have much more to say anyways. That's about it. If I think of something else don't worry I'll be sure to tell you about it.
Ack, someone help me, I'm rooming with Sam next year. This means I get to experience all of her spastic insanity moments instead of just some of them.
However I've discovered that this is accident prone week #2 for me this summer. I've managed to give myself another blood blister (right on the part of my thumb that I use the most) and stab two different fingers (one of which was with a screwdriver. Yes I said a screwdriver, granted it was an electric screwdriver but you gotta admit that it takes tallent to stab yourself with a screwdriver). So now I get to be in constant pain when I work cuz I'm always using my hands (lucky me).
The other thing I hate with a passion are (and I know this will sound weird) drawer-guides. Yes I said drawer-guides, those metal thingies that some drawers have to keep them from falling out. I hate those too. It is increadibly annoying to have to put 7 of them in the freaking box. Especially since they come packed in boxes of 40 that you have to keep opening constantly to get the little buggers out so that you can package them with the furniture. You end up with a nice mountain of empty boxes that you have to wade through and cut down during your break. They also cause you to fall behind consatanly because you have to keep stopping to open more boxes of them. (GRRRR . . . evil drawer-guides, evil).
