My coworker whom kinda stood me up a few weeks ago contacted me before the show and asked if I was still going. Told her hell yea. She said she'd come by and hang out.


She never did :emo:


I say we sacrifice her to Azazel

Haha.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Hi SeRoX!  How are you?

Me, I've got to go to bed soon.  Got to get up at 430am tomorrow for work. Yuck.

Morning.
Saw on Facebook that BGE has deemed today some sort of energy saving day, encouraging customers to turn off AC and electrics from 1-7....on the hottest day in recent memory. And those who participate in the Peak Rewards program (not I) will have their AC cycled down 50% all to save a total of $4-$8 on the day.

Would you like some heat stroke to go with the pocket change?

So I was involved in what should have been a horrible accident...  But instead I walked away with out a scrap and amazingly no noteworthy damage to my car.  Long story but  to keep it short... As I was sitting  I was  trapped by a dude going way to fast who swerved to avoid me,  tapped me,  spun out and almost side swiped me,  then almost hit another car (funny enough a coworker's car),  and wound up facing the wrong way in a ditch..

Oh and everyone survived.  Roar.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too.

I am still trying to figure out what happened. The ONLY damage to my car is an imprint of his License Plate on my bumper. Which I didn't even notice till later (The great thing about driving a beater). According to my coworker, the kid was already skidding when he hit me. I was just beginning to accelerate when he hit.. which saved me. After hitting, he spun out and wound up in the ditch. This marks 3 accidents I've been in since I've started driving which should have injured or killed me but I walked away without a scratch (sans the air bag burn from one of them).

What up?

I've basically finished my animating now. Just setting it all up for rendering, then about 48 hours straight of rendering to do.

Setting it up is tedious work, then it's just tedious waiting for it all to render before I can put it all together. :lol

And that's two solid days of rendering time, which I can only do when I'm not actively using the computer, because it chews up 100% of my CPU. Gonna have to pull some overnight renders to get it done quickly.

Hi all.
Stress level is high today for no apparent reason, and I'm feeling rather exhausted. Thinking I might need to talk to someone soon.
