these chicks don't even know the name of my clan...
Imma just skip mentioning work one of these days... anyhoo after work I went along to zion to hang out with my kiddies and see what they are up to these days (*sniff* they grow up so fast). It was an olympics night, with real javelins and stuff, pretty funky. Dan kicked my ass in everything. I remember when he used to be shorter at me and bad at everything. Now he's the same height and stronger dammit. Still, nice to watch people grow up and mature.

Connie and I left zion early, I dropped her home and went to the CS^2 reunion LAN. It was tops. We had some great games of CS, until someone decided warcraft would be a good idea. I had made a resolution previously that I wouldn't care about getting my ass wupped in stuff I sucked at anymore, so I thought I'd play because everyone else wanted to. Basically There was 5 teams, and 2 of those teams only had people on their team that had never played before, or only played once or twice. They got absolutely slayed. Then there was my team, I was with neal, we are both competant but crap, and I had no sound. So we lasted a bit longer but we really were a pushover. Then the two other teams were both skilled. Those two teams basically fought it out. I didn't really mind playing, but I guess I'd just rather spend that time doing something fun instead. We played a bit of battlefield to end off the night which was nice, then I gave neal and tenny lifts home.

* play some NWN

everybody in the house, rock the navbar!
Oh man, this heavy schedule of extra cirricular activities is killing me. Tonight after work I went round to Fat's house to watch the AUS v USA olympic basketall. We got beat, but we were doing quite well against the US until the 4th quater. They put on a good show so it wasn't a total loss. Lebron james is a weapon. He's an absolute machine.

I drove home and decided I was hardcore so I tried to watch the whole first season of the office starting at 12 midnight. At about 3:30 I was really tired and fell asleep on the couch. I think I saw all but the last episode. So yeah, now I get the jelly stapler thing chenny :D

Tribes has finished downloading. I'll be playing that some, this weekend. :D

//edit: actually I looked up the episode guide and I saw practically all of the last episode... so success (kinda)

Title withheld for investigative purposes
All I did today was go to work, then come home and edit my movie. It's really lacking something at the moment, I don't know what.

Something something, then you'll see!
Having a wife is cool. 40/75 DVDs done :D she started while I was at work, and did heaps while I was at basketball too.

I'm always late when it rains. It's because I can't skate to the station, and so it takes me twice as long to get there, and so I miss my train, and so I have to wait longer. Also sleeping through redfern tacks some time onto the journey. Work was ok, some of my stuff broke so I had to fix it. Meh muh. I had fish for lunch.

After work I went home and continued burning. I rang all my BBB kids and told them about the reunion. Some pretty interesting conversations going on tho. One of my kids was complaining because his religion teacher gave him an arvo for not handing his homework in. He also said for his final exam he has to know the plagues of egypt, and some of moses' relatives. I dunno if I'd pass that without studying, names always eldue me. I'll have a go at the plagues though:

locusts
frogs
rivers to blood
first born sons died
fire rained from the sky
livestock all died
darkness
disease (like some massive sores)

crapsticks can only think of 8. I just looked it up and I forgot gnats and flies. Sux to be me. Anyhoo, what was I saying? Can't really remember.

Basketball was mad. I got like 11 or 13 points? I can't remember. Our whole team played good and we got our first win in weeks. It was great :D The other team was fouling pretty hard sometimes. They clocked chenny a fair bit. A couple of times he ended up on the floor hehe :D Red also said he'd try and get to the CS thing on friday.

swoosh :D
New task! To burn 75 DVDs this week for the zion kiddies. So lets see where that puts me with regards to my "todo's" before sunday

* play some tribes vengance
* watch the office DVD i was lent
* finish editing blackstump movie
* burn the DVDs
* watch lots of olympics
* play some NWN

Damn. I think NWN is going to suffer bigtime... and I dunno if I'll get through the office. The other stuff should be ok :D

Anyways I played really well at basketball for once. Scored 5 points, and hussled well. It was a fun game too. Afterwards I drove over to my old house and dumped off dee's computer fixed and working. I didn't get home til late, but I got a start on burning some of the DVDs. 15/75 done. YAY!

OK guys, thats a wrap.

I basically just filmed all day today for my blackstump movie. It was very amusing, because this time people were in better spirits and acting up a bit. We got all of it done except one scene, so I was stoked. My wrist feels a lot better too.

After filming was church. Some crazy chicks came in off the streets causing rukkas, it was pretty funny seeing how people responded. It was encouraging that people came in off the street, even if their hearts may have been in the wrong place.
