To slip away, fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me...
Considerately killing me."

About a month ago, WoW put out another patch with some fixes and additions. Well, it completely screwed up my game and I had to uninstall it. Tonight, I've started the six hour long task of reinstalling and downloading all of the patches for it.

So here I am, typing up a fresh journal for the three people who might decide to drop by and read it.

I went to Borders the other day and bought books two and three of The Dark Tower series. Started on number two Tuesday night. I've got about 1/4 left before I finish. It's been good. I'm eager to start on the next book, probably tomorrow. And then it's off to the book store again. I should really talk to Jon's brother about borrowing his series, but I'm the kind of person who likes to go back and re-read books. It depresses me when I don't have them on hand.

We've started looking at furniture for when we move in the late spring (assuming one of our eventual applications is accepted). I never realized how expensive furniture is. It's lucky Jon's parents are giving us the loveseat in the livingroom. But we still need a real bed (yeah, I'm still sleeping on the cardboard thin pull-out couch/bed mattress, which has been laying on the bedroom floor since the frame fell apart), a TV stand, a decent livingroom TV, and some barstools if we can't get a small table and a couple chairs. We've got kitchen stuff taken care of, and we have a big table to put both of the computers on. I wouldn't mind a bookcase too, even just a cheap one.
When does moving into our first place get to be fun? Does it ever?

The Sims 3 has been put off until June. It was supposed to come out on the 20th of this month, and then EA got pissy and delayed it. Hopefully they will fix some big issues in that time -- namely the ability to easily make and put custom content into your game. It was a massive feature in the Sims 2, and I personally can't play without my custom content and mods. EA invited a bunch of the well known CC creators to a big event they hosted, and a good number of them were really ticked off at the seeming lack of support for custom meshes and textures.
But now I'm getting into the whole gaming thing, and I know that few of you guys give a damn about it, so I'll stop here.

I hope you all have a good tomorrow, and a beautiful weekend.

Have a good weekend! I hope everything gets sorted out! I'm a Wow player too - the patches can be trouble. O.o I want to read Dark Tower eventually - I like Stephen King, and my friend is reading the series.

Jeez.
Stephen King, Les Mis, and WoW?
We have a lot more in common than I though. :P

What server do you play on?
:iconeskimoblueboy:
Getting your first place...such great adventure!

Well you can get Resident Evil 5 to hold you over till Sims 3 comes out. I recommend the bookselves from walmart, only $30 for a five shelf. I also reccommend the Abarat series by Clive Barker, wonderfully imaginative books. :poke:

Awesome! :) I play on Shadowsong. What's yours?

Tanaris. I've got a Nelf hunter there named Kaleva.
...Plus a ridiculous number of death knights all over the place. I love their lore and couldn't resist going through the quests/story as many times as possible. :D
:iconzethara:
:hug: I'm glad you're reading lots! Um.. your first place gets to be fun when you've moved into it and can putter around and decide where everything goes. :nod: :heart:

Very late reply. :giggle: Sorry.

Yeah, we can't wait. Jon's dad just had surgery, and we hope to get started on the process when he is back up and about and doesn't need as much help.

I've never actually played any of the Resident Evil games. I was rather terrified of zombies until Oblivion broke me in.
