An Austrailian travel program is coming to my mall today to film for one of their episodes about Las Vegas. The program is called Getaways, I think.

We have spent the last couple of days getting the store spic and span.. and I bet we are only going to have a 5 second slot.

Anyway! What do you have going on today?

I will rush home from work just to read your replies!

I'll spend a good chunk of the day wondering how I'm going to replace the core switch at home. $600 hit.

Odds are, I'll find some hackjob way to make the current core switch stop overheating.

I'll be heading to work in 15 mins. Work 4 hours at Jewel, drive 35 mins to the other job, then work about 6 more there! Then probably come home and play WoW.

I'll be helping my dad move boxes into his new office. He recently quit working as a defense attorney for Prudential/Liberty Mutual/Geico/Titan(Liberty bought them all out), and is opening up an office to work the other side of the court room.

After I'm done with that, depending on how much time I have I'll either go to a local card shop and bug the owner and see if my new Magic deck can stand up to his scruiteny. If I have more time after that I'll bug a short red headed chick I know to hang out some.

If I'm short on time I'll just head over to mall about 20 miles away and hang out with the red headed assistant manager and play some DnD. Hopefully do something with her afterwards, if not, I'll go back home and crash.

I'm going to my Y to swim 3200 yards of technique swimming (thinking it's going to take about 3 hours). Then I'm going to play Soul Calibur 2

Just another normal day, more or less. Two of my coworkers are out sick, leaving only me and our primary developer to field any problems and/or inane requests. If I get out at 5 rather than getting stuck at work late (things have been slow, so there's a pretty good chance I'll make it), I'll hit the gym for a couple hours, then relax back at my apartment.

Today I remembered that I missed an onyxia raid last night.. Which makes me very sad, since I've attended all our raids, and wanted to keep up the record. But aside from that, I get Nanostray today! I'm hoping it's good.

  • Put away laundry.
  • Go to the bank.
  • Turn in a job application.
  • Get a haircut.
  • Go to batting cages.
  • Return Death by Degrees to Blockbuster (eh, it was OK; the fighting was decent, but it wasn't much of a challenge).
  • Something else.

If I get at least two of these done, I'll be proud of myself

EDIT: EVERY TIME.

Oh, cool, which mall do you work at? What store?

As for me... I've been so busy with school-stuffs. Moving to a new university sucks for all the paperwork and things you need to triple-check.

I heard that the Devil Within minigame of Tekken 5 is better than this. Truth or fiction?

Fiction.

Although the control scheme for Death by Degrees is clumsier than Devil Within, Nina has a considerably more robust command set than Jin and is able to brandish melee weapons and firearms. The game is also longer, has no merciless jumping puzzles, and features a more colorful cast.

It sure as hell isn't perfect though. I'll write a full review if the public demands it.

My friend and I had an argument this morning on how long it takes a guy to recover before he can have sex again, for the purpose of our RP...she was saying something like an hour...my response was, "What?!? If that is true, then all my life the media has severely misinformed me."

Not long at all. If it takes an hour, he doesn't want it. And if you can't think of anything to do until he gets wood, you don't need it.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

I'm going to NSC, the new university that just opened about two years ago in Henderson. It's a hell of a lot more appealing than UNLV is, and UNR was absolute shit, I left after my freshman year and I haven't regretted it.
