Nerd ramblings.

I'm preeetttyyy sure that almost every, single WoW player thinks that their guild is the greatest. I'm sure that almost all of them are convinced that their guildies are some of the nicest people they'll meet online.

Bullshit. My guildies are better.

I'm always blown away by the kindness of my online friends. Whenever I start to loose faith in humanity during a failed battleground, when chat is spammed with "we loose, fags" and "l2 play, n00blet", hope is always restored as a guild member offers free gear to everyone before selling it for personal gain, gives help to a lowbie or just laughs at themselves when the realise they've been playing a character for 19 days that still isn't level 80... oh, wait, that last one's just me.

Anyway, I love my guild. They restore my faith in people who lurk on teh interwebz. <3

I find myself logging into WoW, to just sit on guild chat, talking about cups of tea (I usually start those discussions), vampires (ones that don't sparkle, thank God) or something equally nifty.

I don't know what the point of this is. But I don't care. (:

The people in my guild are some of the nicest people I've ever had the privilege of getting to know.

ily, guys. <3

New Years.

Whee, happy new years. <3

2010. Sounds nifty.

Just a quick blog post, more for me than anything, so I can come back and actually remember my new years resolutions:-
  • To start going to sleep before midnight on school nights,
  • Make a level 80 druid, and,
  • Buy a bigger monitor. A really big one.
Sounds good, eh?

Live long and prosper.

(Edit: I can't get the font right on this. Deal with it. At least it's not Papyrus.)

Bored bored bored.

I'm waiting for Ayano to pick me up so we can go and celebrate Josh's birthday.

While doing said waiting, I've been messing around with Wordle (Link: http://www.wordle.net/create). It's nifty.


Live long and prosper. <3

A pretty thingy-ma-jig:

A desk I would die for (seriously):

I want a wand- this wand.

Magic Wand - TV Remote [via ThinkGeek]


"You know you have always wanted to be a wizard. But not one of those swish and flick wizards from the movies. You want to be the Dungeons & Dragons wizard - the party's controller. See that word there? CONTROLLER. It means you control the battlefield; you control everything! Sure, you're squishy and sometimes there's collateral damage when you let out a blast, but it's all in a day's work. As a wizard, you have a choice in implements, but everyone knows The Wand is the ultimate when you want to be an elite controller.

Our Wand may not make legions of kobold minions explode into flames, but it will learn up to 13 commands from your existing remote controls and map them to particular magical motions. Flick the wand from side to side to flip the channels, twist the wand to turn up the volume. A beam of light will shoot out the unicorn tail hair and magic will happen! The Wand can learn from any remotes in your house and once you master its 13 movements, you can mastermind a symphony of electronic enjoyment from the comfort of your couch. Then, and only then, are you an epic level controller.

Product Specifications

  • Magic wand television remote for witches, wizards, and the occasional muggle
  • 13 magical functions (the number one would expect in magic!)
  • Learns from your existing remotes
  • With a little practice, you can train yourself to do magic with household electronics
  • Flip the channel with a flick of your wand, twist your wand to turn up the volume
  • Compatible with almost all makes of TV, DVR, or really anything with a remote!
  • Buttons are sooooooooooooooo out, wands are in. Trust us."
You know you actually need this.

Test.

(You should ignore this, mkay?)

Hobart Museum.

I went to the museum today. It was quite nice. I've been before, quite a few times actually, but I always love going again and again. It's pretty. <3



I also am pretty sure I have an obsession with clocks. I've always loved them, but it's getting worse. I saw a lovely one in Harvey Norman (?) the other day. I spent at least 15 minutes staring at it, until Shane finally managed to drag me away. I'd own it now, if it hadn't been $4500.



How nice is this globe? I want a nice globe (and a nice chess table, but that has nothing to do with the museum). I want it to be like the Inglorious Basterds globe though, with all the drinks inside.

That movie was awesome.



Well, I had a nice day.
