I went to Rotenburg ob der Tauber for their Imperial festival (which honors when they became a free city) and I NOW HAVE A SWORD!

Step one is complete, step two is learn to use it, step three is slay a dragon/rescue a princess.

It's only a matter of time now....

I have a good friend who's way into European swordplay. I genuinely believe that he's hoping for a dragon to kidnap a princess someday, as well.

They are fantastic!! They color so smoothly, and they blend with each other, and we're pretty sure they're made out of magic. :D :D

We'd scan pictures Michelle's done, but our old-ass scanner isn't compatible with either of our computers anymore. :( :(

(NOTE: "Old-ass scanner" denotes the chronologically advanced state of a scanner. "Old ass scanner," on the other hand, denotes either an old scanner used to scan asses, or a scanner of indeterminate age used to scan the asses of the elderly. Neither is good. D: D:)

Protip: allow BEC to get the dragon built, then abduct her and use her for the princess.

I may be going to the Penny Arcade Child's Play charity dinner in December...I should be able to find a Princess there, but she'd be the self-rescuing kind.

I got a pretty good thing going. :shucks:

My class was cancelled for the third time, so I can do other stuff.

I'm gonna eat soup. I had some chicken tenders for lunch.

I had a dream that me and my pal apologized to another girl we used to be friends with and she forgave us.

I got my essay done ahead of time.

I haven't been this consistently happy for a long time. Probably some years or so.

Today my boss gave me free comics from the dollar comic bin!

T'other day someone also brought a whole bunch of used art books into the store. I quickly snapped up three of them: those two Jack Hamm books and Anatomy For the Artist (years ago, my dad convinced me not to buy this book because it was too expensive... :roll: ) And all three only cost me about $35 altogether. :D

Congrats!

Also, as incentive for the IGDA recruitment drive, Harmonix was giving away swag. So I signed up (I've been meaning to for a while) and came home with Lego Rock Band! And Rock Band Metal Track Pack.
