The Browncoat Board has that snazzy cleavage thread.

Wait... what??
I get more cleavage in a tank top, though. Who remembers the old favorite with my knives?

I do!
And, here in Canada, it's a balmy -10 degrees. Celcius. That'd be... oh... -20 or so in F, and with the wind chill, it can hit -30 with ease. Have I mentioned I hate the cold?
*Wanders to somewhere warm*

-10C is actually closer to 14F (remember, freezing is at the totally random 32F, so below zero in F is colder than in C until you get to -40, which is the exact same on both scales) Still bloody cold, especially with the windchill 
I'd send you warm thoughts if I had any to spare.
I think Ms G said something about a tropical Browncoat paradise? Sounding better all the time...
And on that note, I need to get some sleep. []

Just thought I'd pop in to say hi, and maybe gloat about the temperature.... ok i dont know what it is, but its sunny and stuff here in california, as CK so nicely mentioned. Of course i'm inside doing homework as always, but thats not the point.
Now, CK, i have a confession to make: i actually play WoW.... *shudders*. A friend of mine who kept moving high schools still plays it, so its my way of staying in contact with her (though she lives pitifully close to me, compared to those on this board) and having something in common. Its a decent game, but my priorities remain firmly with theater and school, and WoW being a free-time hog.
Let me think, is there anything I could say to make your silly can't-be-pulled-away-from-the expansion husband come to his senses? I speak WoW-ese, don't I? Try these handy phrases:
"Level seventy will still be there when you get back!"
or
"Tell your group that you have 'wife aggro'. They'll understand."
And the more threatening:
"Log off now, or I'll log onto your character when you're asleep and destroy your armor!"
or
"See the plug going into this router? Go back to the inn now, or I'll pull the plug and your character won't get rest experience!" (trust me, this does mean something)
In other news, I got accepted to UC riverside... creative writing major, and they offered me a scholarship that'll pretty much cover tuition. Not gonna decide anything until i get answers from the other UCs in april, but... blah i've heard riverside is a dump, and that going to UCR would actually be less challenging than my AP classes in high school. Descisions suck.

Yup, 82F out right now, and just got back from our daily walk. Gunna be barbequing later today, too.
PR, bras that fit are great, aren't they?! Expensive, but I've found I go through fewer now that I know what fits.
Lol, Whitefall, I actually play WoW a lot too. I hit 64 yesterday, and might get 65 tonight, depending on how much the Super Bowl draws me in. Hubby made 70 last night, and the "pulling him away" issue was that he only had four or five bubs left to 70 at that point, and *really* didn't want to get up from the computer, hehe. We're both big gamers, and so we play WoW and other games together a lot, so I don't tend to "wife aggro" very often, lol. We actually bought a big dining room table (with no chairs!) a few years back, to use as a computer desk for both of us, so we can play sitting side by side. It's a nice arrangement.

lol, CK, I remember you saying that long ago, I just wasnt sure if it was all still true, as you seem to be more often on the recieving end of the "hubby plays too much wow" thing. My gnome warrior (two feet of pure gnomish power!!!!) appropriately named Browncoat is... well, at 63. And i'll get 70 someday lol. (theater > WoW, always.)
It's fun, but its kinda eeeevvviiiillll. I've seriously considered (still debating) whether to take any games with me to college at all: creative writing, no matter what i end up doing with it, needs all the time i can give to it.

Yeah I know what you mean, Whitefall, it can be eeevvviiilll, lol. Thankfully we both just have work, so as long as we aren't calling in sick, or forgetting to buy groceries, or not getting enough sleep, it's fine. One of my sisters who is out at college plays as well, which is nice because I only really get to see her at Christmas, so at least this way we get to hang out in-game every now and then.
I've been to UC Riverside a couple of times, though it's been a few years. It's not such a bad place, though I don't think it has the best location of all the UCs. Congrats on the scholarship though, that's very cool! You could always start at UC Riverside and transfer to another UC after that (especially if the classes are pretty easy, since then you can carry a high GPA) -- both UCLA and UC Irvine aren't too far from there. I definitely understand the question about bringing any games with you to college (my husband says leaving WoW at home is a good idea if you actually want to graduate!), but otoh, have you given any thought to using a creative writing degree to write for video games?
Btw, hubby plays a gnome rogue and I play a human warrior, so I'm with you on both fronts. Oh, and have you given any thought to playing the Firefly MMOG once it comes out?
