    Hey, where did the Christmas heads go? They were so cute! Give me back my Christmas heads! :wail:

    I'm waiting for a friend. He is SEVEN HOURS LATE :flaming:

    I still have something like 6 months before I have to write and defend my thesis... I have 2 part time jobs... and I get TWO more (potential) job offers. I want them. Both of them ($$$$). But I don't have TIME! :bang: :bang:

    Not to mention I waste so much time on the boards here. You guys & gals are addictive.

    Oh and congrats Arabwel. Your partner will probably soon be :bang: himself :shake:

    Ok, time for :coffee: Long night ahead. Wait, I don't drink coffee. Oh well, guess it'll be a :beer: instead.

    I think I need to see a doctor...my blood preshure is kind of high, and my average body temp has been at a sturdy 100 degrees all week long...but I don't feel sick, I just have a constant headache. Maybe it's just stress. :rolling:

    @Dal:

    When it's a 9 am class and your only class of the day, on a Monday, Latin is not fun.

    I really hate the idiot drivers who have their music blasting with the really heavy bass. It shakes the walls of the house, and is not a good thing to have interrupt a meditation. :bang:

    On my first run through, I didn't really take the time to sight see. What with Arie and all the run-ons, feebly seperated with commas, I was loathe to breathe heavily. But looking back through it now, it has some Fallout2 to it. Not a pr0n studio stuck in a post-apocalyptic world, but rather some inside jokes with the development team.

    For instance:

    Holy Swizarnian Hammer of Lucerne

    "Oh," he had then added, "and pray thee bless it as well... thou dost know, that one where it explodes undead most explosively and what-not, so that I might get my most righteous smite on."

    When Lodur the Brave returned to the dwarven stronghold to pick up his new hammer, he found instead a spiked pole-arm whose use was forbidden by his religion. The cleric ranted and gnashed his teeth and swore up and down the halls of the clan before stomping off in disgust, leaving his payment and the somewhat inappropriately named hammer behind.

    -------

    There's a ton of them. Creative department, accounting geeks (more than likely), and animation nerfs, all balance testing whatever happened to be available at the time. All leaving their "payment" of the project on the poor dwarf's desk. Or, you know, sharing their mp3's on the LAN.

    Regardless of what I may have said or implied in the past, there's a lot of character to the game. I still think they could have swapped out Arie, for Minsc (doing his best Arundel impression) or Jaheria; even Edwin or Fall-from-Grace would have been preferable. Heck, they could have slapped the Grey Wolf in there and it would have been an improvement.

    My god. Someone please collapse that circus tent. Thanks.

    Sleep? What's that? Oh yes, that thing that I should be doing right now. I think my bed is calling my name.

    Should I be worried?
