(seriously driving on the highway in the city while towing that is a scary proposition.)
I wish you the best of luck navigating Austin streets with such a setup. :P

Frown: I have just been really anxious and depressed over the past week or so, and it's not really related to worrying about starting school. It's too complicated/personal to get into on a forum, but I just want to apologize in advance if I seem especially down lately.
All anxiety and depression aside, that's actually really awesome! Congratulations on getting into such a tough school! And if you're gonna end up in the Seattle area, there's quite a few Racketeers in the area, like Popo and JT. You're gonna be pretty busy with school for DigiPen, but if you need some advice on how to get around the city or something, I'm sure folks here will be happy to help out.
Don't forget about me! Also I work at a game company which might help once you graduate. :)
Oh, neat! Where do you work, Stark?

We took the floorplan and measured our stuff to come up with a tentative arrangement.

...there's not a lot of room in here, but it's nice and cozy looking and I think I really like it. Last several places we've lived have been too big, frankly.

Smile: A friend of mine wanted to see my blog so I gave her the link saying "Here it is, not sure if you are going to find it interesting though" because I don't think it's that great and because I don't think that many people are interested in Netrunner and A-Train.

She replied with "Don't say I'm not interested because I'm a girl! I used to be really into gaming, I played Uncharted a lot !"

Good thing I wasn't questioning her credentials :lol:

:? - still really unsure how much more of the weirdness of having the department I'm in micromanaged and understaffed on days when we should have more people. If I'm going to get this worn out, I'd rather it be doing something I love(plus for all the crap we just went through getting it ready for inventory, super doubles and the corporate store walk I think we all deserve a raise of some sort :| ). The even worse thing is it's probably about to get even crazier since around the end of october all the Christmas/holiday craziness starts(which makes me even more love the fact I can listen to my own music because I hate listening to all the music that comes with that time of year. 8+ hrs of the Christmas/holiday music over 5-6 days for about 3 or so months? no thanks...

:? : Over the past week I have received alerts from Microsoft about 2 of my 3 email accounts having odd activity. Looking back on the activity log it seems that both accounts are getting about 10+ failed log in attempts a week from a variety of international locations :P. For example my old college email address just got an alert today and looking back I've got failed log ins from Serbia, Argentina, Indonesia, Morocco, Russia, and 10+ from China.

Anyone else noticing a spike in attempted hijackings on their email accounts?

Welcome to my world :lol: I dropped that class after a week....(in college of course at the first community college i went too). I hated chemistry in high school so what made me think I'd like the college version? I have no clue :|

It's 3:30 AM and I think I am seriously losing my mind. I am really sick with a crazy fever and sore throat and runny nose and all that jazz and I woke up to the David After Dentist video playing through my brain in a strange deranged max headroom style. "Is this real life?" Breaking out the heavy duty medicine as I have to be at work in 4 hours.
