yeah, I've been meaning to post here for a while. I've actually had things I've wanted to put on here. Like I wanted to post "karma" and nothing but that, but I felt itwas a waste of time to blog only one word. there have been several small things like that I've had to say, but I've forgotten most of them. I had homework this week. I finished one homework set, one lab report, one abstract, and one 6 page paper. Which really doesn't help my motivation problems. I procrastinated on that paper until I only had 3 hours to research and write the whole thing. And I finished with an hour to spare, which I then spent playing 007 with Rick. If I had been panicked, I might have considered doing it earlier next time. I also bought GTA: Vice City, which also doesn't help motivation problems... well, that's not true... I have been fairly motivated to find more of the unique jumps on there.

I finally get to start playing a character I rolled up over 3 month ago. We're starting our D20 modern game tomorrow. joy. :)

ok, time for a survey... you thought you were just going to get to read my blog mindlessly, didn't you? ha! you were wrong! Now you are obligated to answer the following question: "When does enough become too much?" is that open ended enough for you? Well, here, let me give you some context. As I have noted before in my blog, I am in the process of (very legally) exploiting a very large loophole in a compusa-aol deal. I get a free DVD. and it's just that simple... there are no tricks, no rebates, no trades... just a free DVD. Now... I have gotten exactly 30 DVDs from compusa as of today, and I have paid exactly $0.99, which was only for the first DVD. all the others were free. I have become a "legend" in the local compusa, or so I'm told by the 3-4 guys I ran into today while getting more DVDs. The main guy I'm working with is pretty cool, and I found out that signing me up for so many aol deals put him over the top and he got to walk away with a $700 palm pilot for free. How's that for a bonus? I even had a chat with the general manager of the store, who encouraged me to come back soon... so when do you stop? or when do I stop? I've got 30 free DVDs. Do I go back for more? when is enough too much? you stop eating free food when you're full/sick, but what about when you're kinda obsessive about your DVD collection, and you're 4 away from having 200 DVDs?! ok, I think that's enough context... now you can comment.
