What Was the Name…

…of that margarita I drank two nights ago? It was delicious, but I don’t remember what it was called. It probably had to do with the fact that I had a Long Island Iced Tea before hand, and then told Gavino and April to pick out my next drink.

Anyway, welcome! It’s Friday and a week has gone by. Something interesting had to happen in my life, wouldn’t you think?! Well let’s pick apart the week and find out!

MONDAY: Normal day at work. I think this may have been the only day, when I got home, that I played my alli warrior. I got her to level 22, sold some stuff on the AH, got around 6 gold finally. It’s hard starting over on a new server…not being able to send yourself bags, gold, gear, anything. But it’s been an experience, I’ll say. Two achievements I’d like to have done before WotLK comes out: Illidan down on Gurubashi, and level 70 on the Terokkar warrior. Throughout the week I did dailies on the priest, including the increasingly interesting cooking/fishing dailies. I have GOT to remember to do the Stranglethorn fishing contest…oh fuck, I have to take Gavino out that day? Ooh wait, that might be for dinner though…guess we’ll see!

TUESDAY: (From now on, unless something interesting happens at work, I’ll just skip even mentioning it) They’ve been doing classes at work to educate certain groups on the new 3D architectural CAD that’s coming out (or is out, I really don’t know). So the “LGA Learning Center” has been closed off for only people taking the class. Not very intersting, but figured I might as well mention it for whatever reason.

After work, I drove to mom’s house. Uncle John (& his family) AND Paul would be there. Of course, for some reason I had my koi fish shirt on, so I had some people complimenting on it, and others (like Paul) saying “IS THAT JAPANESE?!”. I shouldn’t complain, it’s not like I see them often, and at this point in my life, do I really care? So we ate dinner, I helped with random stuff. Mom fell down cause of her knee and other nerve damage problems, but she went to the dotcor the next day. Hopefully the things she’s going to get done in the future will help her, I feel bad that she’s this way. We also played Chicago Rummy (or Gin Rummy? I don’t remember – the one w/the sets and runs). At first I was sucking up a storm, then I was in 3rd for a little bit. I may or may not have ended in the same position.

I got home just in time to get in after Supremus was downed. Guild was having problems (2 wipes on trash, 2 on Supremus, etc). We finished off Akama and Gorefiend, then got stuck on Bloodboil.

WEDNESDAY: Went to Gavino’s to do some filming. Got our 2nd podcast recorded, and I’m hoping (either tonight or tomorrow) to get the 1st one up somewhere (I have to think of how to do it…I want to have the audio up somewhere [maybe I'll save that for the website, SOMEDAY] and the video can’t be too large – I’ll make a new vimeo account and start putting them there) by Sunday at the latest (aiming for Saturday). We got to reshoot the missing scenes, but I really hope we got everything we needed. I have this feeling we didn’t, but I guess I can piece it all together. We also added some different things to it which will hopefully make it even more interesting.

Besides filming, we went to Boston’s to get something to eat and drink. Gavino and April suggested that we have a new format for the episodes. To make them a little longer and more pleasing to the public (whenever we make a website/get webspace), we’ll have 3 part segments: 1st part will be the new skit, 2nd part will be a review or a “You Call That An Opinion” sketch or whatever else we throw in the second part (nothing too random, a bit more serious, but not enough to scare people away), and the 3rd part will be the extras section (bloopers, funny scenes we didn’t put in the skits, etc.). All in all, it should / hopefully will work out in the end…the future will tell!

TURRZDAY (Ya’ll biscuit heads): BT raid wasn’t too bad, but it was a night of Reliquary of Souls (RoS from now on) attempts. I already discussed it all on the forums (crimsonguild.net), but we got to the 3rd phase, probably around 70% (though Supermassive died both times we got there w/everyone up like right off the bat). We didn’t do Bloodboil because we wanted to work on progression, and we did progress…though we didn’t down RoS, we got the strat down pretty well and should have him Sunday if we go in there again.

FRIDAY: What a boring day at work. NOTHING going on. There was a job or two I did, and helped Art/Raou bring some marine equipment in, but besides that, it’s been computer all day. Tonight I’m going to mom’s for dinner as usual, then over to Gavino’s afterwards for our first “Friday Night Board Game Extravaganza”. That’s not what it’s name, but it’s the first thing that came to mind. It should be fun, not only because it’s our first one, but it’s also 8/8/08 and I threw out the option that we should drink drink drink .

On that note, I want to say, like I said in texts to people and on the forums: It’s 8/8/08. It’s only happening once in our lifetime. I don’t even remember if I did anything for last year’s 7/7/07 or even 6/6/06, but hopefully this year, especially since I’ve been blogging again, will be a bit more memorable. And think about it: We’ve only got 4 more years of this left, ending with 12/12/12, which people say will be the end of the world! Anyway, anyone who reads this or thinks about today as a special day, enjoy it!

Weekend plans? I’ll probably mow the lawn for dad/carol tomorrow, and hopefully get a podcast up at some point, and work on the skit. Sunday, I’m taking Gavino and April out for his birthday (Monday) to Joe’s Crab Shack (I believe that’s the name). Food is always good, so I’m sure it will be an enjoyable time. Besides that, nothing else comes to mind.

Lollapalooza’s 2008 recap is playing on XMU atm, so I won’t be able to really say what I’m currently listening to because not only do I not know who this currently is, but these speakers at work are awful, so even if I did know, I probably wouldn’t know what to link lyric wise ;p.

later!
