Jul. 7th, 2008 09:08 amConversation with my dad last night.
Dad: Do you have the address you didn't even know existed to the whatcamabob?
Me: Nooo... where is it in regards to the whatcamabob?
Dad: I don't know.
Me: What is it?
Dad: I don't know. It came with the whatchamabob. Do you have the instructions?
Me: I don't know. Let me check. *looks* No.
Dad: That's funny. It's an email address that comes with the whatchamabob.
Me: I didn't even know it came with an email address.
Dad: Oh. Never mind. I found it. *hangs up*
Me: Um... bye.

good news, bad news
Oct. 30th, 2007 08:41 amDad's home! YAY! =D He's doing better and we're trying to keep liquids in him. He was chatting with the parakeet last night who chatted right back in little bird babble. They're so cute because my dad always acts like he doesn't like animals, except when your back is turned. ^_^
And now Well fuck. Brick three is coming out a year from now and ... there's going to be a brick four. He's turning into a regular Robert Jordan here.
As the press release says:
I dunno if this is a good or bad thing. I mean this whole "True to my characters" shit is so... laughable. Because you know, this would require him to actually have characters instead of NPCs that fawn over the Gary Stu.
So, make of that what you will.

As the press release says:
“I plotted out the Inheritance series as a trilogy nine years ago, when I was fifteen. At that time, I never imagined I’d write all three books, much less that they would be published” said Paolini. “When I finally delved into Book Three, it soon became obvious that the remainder of the story was far too big to fit in one volume. Having spent so long thinking about the series as a trilogy, it was difficult for me to realize that, in order to be true to my characters and to address all of the plot points and unanswered questions Eragon and Eldest raised, I needed to split the end of the series into two books.”

Oct. 29th, 2007 09:02 amI'm having a fuck you day. Unfortunately I can't indulge in it. Except in little ways.

So far, it looks like dad's coming home today. *crosses fingers*

I went to Target with my mom on Thursday. (But Thursday was four days ago! Why are you mentioning this now? Distracting weekend) I started looking briefly at Jackets in the men's section. My mom sees this and says that I should look in the woman's section. I say, there aren't any jackets in the woman's section I like. She goes, "How do you know?" I wanted to say to her because I'm a guy and I don't like woman's clothing.
But that's not really something you say in Target.
Haven't gotten around to telling her that yet. Dad takes priority.

I played D&D yesterday. Maybe it's just been my mood lately, but I just got really annoyed. One of our players is... an (according to the Dungeon Master's Handbook II) outlier. Which means that he goes off on random tangents and bounces all over the place with ridiculous things. For example, our party is going to Xendrick. Davros (the Outlier's PC)decided that he's going to put together a secondary expeditionary expedition which will follow our main expedition. And he gets all excited and making plans and things like that and the DM indulges him. Also he is always saying that he's going to roll for things like if he enjoyed his breakfast or not. Which interrupts the game play for the rest of us, because he's busy off in his own little world. (last night he was busy getting seduced by three elf sisters) And he never seems to pay attention to what any one else says. Or at least he twists it. He got an aberrant dragon mark. One of our other players plays a PC, Salis, from one of the dragon marked houses. Since he has a dragon mark he started saying that he and Salis were siblings. And no matter what he won't listen to us telling him any different. No one wants anything to do with him. My character wants to kill him and be done with it. Unfortunately the DM is so busy indulging Davros that I rarely get a chance to do anything.
I need to figure out something to do.

Oct. 28th, 2007 11:25 amDad stayed in the hospital last night too. Mom's hopping he'll be able to come home today. She was hoping for that yesterday too.
I spent yesterday in the hospital with my mom and dad. Dull... but I got some writing done, which I guess is a good thing. He seemed to be doing better. Eating... and nothing came up.
And my mom just called as I write this and said they're keeping him for another day. They still don't know what's wrong with him either. But mom says that he's looking better so that's good.

Oct. 18th, 2007 10:02 pmA gay magazine came in the mail at work. Lots of pretty mostly naked men in it. =D This picture is the result of perusing the issue.
( Gratuitous eye candy )
It's in the same sketch pad that those parents looked through. I wonder what they would say if they saw that. *giggles* I should show it to them next time. >.>
In slightly less smutty news:
My dad's going in for hip surgery tomorrow. So, any good wishes/prayers/thoughts sent our way would be welcomed.
