I shivered in the dark with no place to hide.  But us bears are used to the cold.  ;)

I spent most of the time reading various e-books on my phone.  Though, I didn't have to give up the forums all in onr shot; my computer died about a month and a half ago.  So, I had a chance to wean off of 'em (despite my phone being able to handle the site) instead of going cold turkey.  Still, it's nice to have 'em back.

Played some computer games.
Tried and failed to get some work done.

I gave me another fix of BT by scouring through TRO:3085 and Supplemental for units accessible to the MAF. You can find the list for download here, if you wish. :)

I spent most of my time playing ME2 for the PS3, and browsing the Virtualworld forums.  It was a bit of a strong withdrawal since I would keep hitting refresh to see if the site was back up, it is amazing how much of a slave to this forum I am lol.

Lessee.. /tg/, Local gaming club... and my house, where I've been playing New Vegas for days on end.
I don't post to play nice with everyone. I post to posit my ideas. If this offends you, there's an ignore function.

Shoveled snow, shoveled more snow, going to shovel even more snow tonight/tomorrow.

Well, that and sarna.net for my big stompy robot fix.

I shivered in the cold and dark, with no place to call home, rocking back and forth muttering to myself  :D ;)

Went to Sarna, but didn't see much so I started Twitter-stalking. Pushed some snow and resisted the urge to play anymore Civ3. Yes, I know-but my computer is old and wont do any better. 115 hours of playtime in 10 days was a bit excessive, sooo...
I need a real job...

As for who caused the blackout,  I think it was Kitsune Kurita with a an actuator wrench in the library.

I was THIS CLOSE to having to take out the trash or do the dishes. Phew!
No matter how far away "this close" is, it's an exaggeration of cosmic proportions. :D

I went nowhere, which is scary, I think I need to be more social online and offline.

Anyone know how to do one or the other? :D

And this letter thing is pesky, but it's probably an indication of how serious the security concerns were, and to be honest, worse stuff is thrown at us at work on a daily basis right now.

I did the same thing that I've been doing for years... lurking. But I figured with the new forums it was about time for me to break my silence

I hung out a bit at the Heavy Metal forums and the Cavalier Cavalry forums, but mainly I've been playing Civ4.

Poked my head in at HMPro and battlecorps, and that was it.  Mostly did homework and other stuff for the weekend.

went back to my vidijagames, taught a few punk kids that expensive limited edition superguns are no match for good aim and flanking tactics.  ;D

....and looked for work, as is the custom of us poor people.
