This weekend had its ups and downs. Let’s list them, shall we?

Up: Transformers!

Down: Only Dennis and Mouls seemed to enjoy the place we went to afterwards for drinks. My brother seemed, as always, cool with whatever, but he has my kind of level of enthusiasm, so it was hard to say whether or not he liked it.

Up: Found some DVD storage units. No longer is my desk a mess!

Down: I had to go to fucking Ikea to go and find them. I hate Ikea, but I had promised Moulsari not to be negative about it while going there, while there, and while on the way back. What a soulless, corrupting void that place is.

Up: 24″ widescreen. Nuff said.

Down: Ended up not gaming. Richard wasn’t there. Frank wasn’t there. Dennis could only be there later, and I couldn’t find the energy to write down the stuff that I needed to in order for the game to run smoothly. Hopefully everyone can be there next sunday, and I can find some time to prepare, because if I do, the next part is going to be fucking awesome!

Up: Got some sleep.

Down: I got angry at this BBC article on “Stuff Lust”.

Birthday Present

I just got a birthday present from my colleagues. It’s an electric hamsterwheel, that you can connect to your computer by way of a USB cable, which, when you type on your keyboard, starts spinning. The faster you type, the faster it spins. Useless, and amusing. :)
