What I'm doing

Sorry, posting has been extremely light over the holidays. School doesn't pick up again until the 17th. Until then, I'm helping Reeta here at the apartments, being a good dad (this involves lots of playing with Claire), and gaming. Lots of gaming. In particular, this has involved Neverwinter Nights 3rd expansion, Hordes of the Underdark, which I'm enjoying, but not as much as I enjoyed the Aielund Trilogy end (?) - Return of the Ironlord. That module had such great characters, I thought it was brilliant. Well done. I've also discovered online Unreal Tournament 2004, and the accompanying voice chat features (UT2004 has been greatly enhanced by the new processor I got a couple months ago - thanks again, Stewart!). I haven't enjoyed shooters online in the past because my aim sucks, and I hate having to type to co-ordinate team actions. Now with the UT2004, I just hit one button, and my mic is live, and my team members can hear me say things like "Who-ever's driving the tank, please stop shooting me. I'm on your team."

I'm also reading an unabridged translation of the Count of Monte Cristo. And I've got class things to co-ordinate. And a little exercise. One of the residents moving out has a recliner they don't need any more, so I will inherit that on Saturday. What can I say? Life right now is pretty frickin' sweet. Only 11 more days until my last semester kicks off again. Yee-haw!
