Heh, was just coming by to check in.

It was loads of fun. I got stinking drunk on Friday night (during and after the costume contest, hehe), so ended up sleeping in a bit on Saturday, which was nice. Overall it was a very cool show. I think I picked up a cold or something (on top of my flare from about a week ago -- still taking pain meds every day), so I'm not sure I have much to say beyond that. Oh, D3 looks awesome, though I didn't get to play around with it that much.

Also, I hate hot chicks who pretend to be into gaming just so they can get on tv or whatever, and I hate it even more when they whine about being called attention whores. One of my least favorite of that community (which unfortunately I'm waaaay too familiar with) was a host for the pay-per-view coverage of BlizzCon on DirectTV. At one point, apparently, on live PPV, she said she was excited about the Wizard class in D3 because she played an Enchantress in D2. -_- The people on the boards ripped her to shreds, which warmed my evil little heart. ^_^

On snow: Never ever ever ever. My brother got married in Utah in January last year, so I actually had to see snow for the first time in probably a decade. I told him he was lucky he was marrying such an awesome girl, otherwise I totally wouldn't have braved the snow to see him. I hate the cold so much, and cold with cold stuff on the ground or in the sky is even worse. Last night it dropped down to 57 here (we went to Disneyland), and I bundled up for that. Anything below about 72 and I start breaking out the sweaters.

Looks like Santa Ana Winds season has started here, just today, which means it's officially fall in southern California. Wish me luck avoiding all the fires this year.

ETA: Since I know Zeek will say "pics or it didn't happen!", here's a link to a story about that chick: http://blogzarro.com/?p=98 I keep tabs on her more than the other girls because she's a perfect example of everything I don't want to be. The pressure to go that way can actually be pretty heavy at times, so it's nice to be able to look her up and remind myself, lol.

lol...clearly she's trying to show how intelligent she is with those outfits. I saw commercials all week peddling that PPV package. It was almost $40. Seriously who would watch enough of that coverage to be worth $40? Sitting in front of the TV watching that stuff would be so lame. Especially since everything important will be online in a matter of days anyway.

I'm really liking the Wizard class btw. That looks to be the class I'll start with unless they top it with one of the last two classes. Some developer said that he thought we'd hate the wizard because of how similar it is to the sorceress. I think he totally misjudged that one. Which has me worried cause he then went on to say he thinks we'll really love the next class to be revealed. If he continues his streak of being wrong this next one might be a real problem.

Glad you had fun though. Plus you get a SC2 beta key so jealous. Don't know how I feel about them breaking it into 3 games though.

Lol, yeah. So she posts pics like that aaalllllll over the internet (those are her claim to professional modeling, but I kinda doubt she got paid for it) and then complains when people say that she's an attention whore. "Just because a pretty girl plays video games and likes to take photos doesn't mean she's an attention whore, you guys are so mean!!!" Bugs the shit out of me.

So I think the PPV package was $40 for both days, and like 9 hours per day, and you could TiVo it, so really not that bad. I bet they'll put it out on DVD at some point, though really I just want a highlight reel or two -- one of the awesome stuff, and one of Becky being stupid. ^_^

And the Wizard totally looks awesome. Just watching the preview movie they had (which was mostly in-game footage) made me want to go play a Sorc again. I'm sure the other classes will kick ass too, but currently I definitely want to play a Wizard when I can.

Our SC2 beta keys may end up going to my brother and his wife, we'll see. They're much bigger SC fans than we are, and depending on when it comes out, we may be totally caught up in WotLK. Though knowing Blizzard, the SC2 beta won't be out until we're just about tired with WotLK anyway, lol.

Lol I think we're done. To sum up:

BlizzCon = awesome
games = awesome
girls who pretend to be gamers to get attention = lame
snow = super lame

How was your weekend MsB?

Weekend was super busy and now poor NV , who has been working hard so much recently, is sick. I'm home fussing over him a ton:)

Glad you had fun at your party though:)

Awww do we gotta be? hehe I could have gone on about the new changes to the stats system and the skill trees. Though the worst part is an event like that gets me all pumped up about the game and it's probably still like 2 years away :-(

Oh well I guess we can talk about more mainstream stuff.

Ponder: A friend of mine is planning his gf's birthday. He's sending her to a spa for the day then out to dinner then home for homemade cheesecake. He's debating whether cheesecake should be just for the two of them or if she'd rather have her family there. Opinions?
