phosphoglucose isomerase
glycogen phosphorylase

The list goes on and on. My head is going to explode.

Holy crap. Do any of those go on sandwiches?

Today has been one of the greatest days I've had in a long time. I got up at five and drank about a pot of coffee while I knocked out about ten pages of my newest story idea, and I just read over it again, and I think that it qualifies as some of the best fictional material that I've written in a long time.

After my writing period, I went in my room and jammed for about a half hour. I got so into it that my neck hurt afterwards, but this solo jam session was so orgasmic that I ended up humping my guitar. If only I had pressed record...

Following this orgasmic jam I went to school and took a Calculus test which we graded immediately after taking. I got a 63/64 so I have an A+ in Calc now:D

After school I finished my entertainment page in the newspaper a week before it was due, so I am essentially off the hook for the rest of the week, so that will be nice.

And now I'm drinking vodka and juice, reflecting on this fantastic day.

A guy at work gave me 20 ps2 games to give to my kids for nothing and yes I know that ps2 games are not all that anymore but I appreciated the gesture a lot. In fact work has been very kind to me over the last 6 weeks. Thank You!

PS2 easily had the strongest library of games in the last console generation. What were some of the titles? Also it was a very kind gesture.

"Shadow of the Colossus" and "Okami" are my two fave games on the PS2

they're almost works of art

Oh god yes. Shadow of the Colossus was such a beautiful game, and having to search for these massive 1,000 foot tall walking statues to kill with just a fecking bow and arrow.

Truer words have never been said. Damn space cadets that we are! Although when I have nothing to do I wish I had something to do. Art is usually that thing I use to spill up the spaces in my time.

Today was weird. I woke up, and i saw more weird **** in one day that I have seen in like.... a month. I hate to sound airy fairy but I feel like there are some weird vibrations floating around the collective human sub conscious. My friend said I might be picking up on vibrations from the stars ( he was taking the piss ). Everything just seemed much more surreal, people and the way they acted. I almost felt like I was in a surreal film or something. Probably because I am hungover though...

FETCHER. 02-09-2012 09:13 AM

I wish I felt like that hungover?

Howard the Duck 02-09-2012 09:18 AM

i only really had a hangover once

strangely enough, i don't get hungover no matter how drunk I get

Dude, if I were you, I'd say, "**** the kids! I'm gonna go play Vice City by myself and they can kiss my ass!"

Hey didn't know you were a GTA fan.

Who isn't a GTA fan? The game is amazing.

Vice City and San Andreas pretty much ruined me for most other games. I don't know how much of my life I wasted playing those games. It makes me sad that GTA IV was such a let down. Thank god for Saint's Row.

Nah believe me, you don't! I was so close to vomiting in my history theory and philosophy of architecture lecture today ( yeah its a mouthful ) I had to leave the lecture and collapse on my desk. Man I would love a fry right now, like rashers and black pudding and some home made chips, I would flog a five year old for that right now.

Farfisa 02-09-2012 12:36 PM

We have some pretty cool space cadets here. I'm really quite jealous of you artists. No matter what I do, no matter how hard I work on a drawing, song, whatever, It never comes out the way I want it to. It's not just that either, it just feels like I'm making something because I should whenever I do these things. I've done some serious thinking lately, and I'm leaning towards selling my instruments and equipment. I just feel like maybe I'm not meant to be an artist or a musician.

Has anyone felt like this?

Ivy_and_Gold 02-09-2012 12:39 PM

Today I recorded vocals for a Gotye cover! Loving it!

I actually think GTA IV was the best of the bunch, along with the add on episodes that came later. I think Vice City a classic game though, with its authentic Miami inspired Miami Vice style scenarios and soundtrack. San Andreas I didn't like as much, mainly because they tried to incorprate three cities in one game LA, SF and Vegas. What it did do well though were the gang territories that you had to fight for.

Really? I thought IV was the worst of the bunch. The city was just too, same-y. Plus no planes, parachutes, jetpacks, mountains? What's with that?

San Andreas was the best, good to see they're returning to Los Santos for V:


FETCHER. 02-09-2012 03:48 PM

San Andreas was indefinitely the best, with Vice City as a second :).

Unknown Soldier 02-09-2012 04:32 PM

Well, I disagree with all three of you bozos!

BTW when is GTA V due out?

Howard the Duck 02-09-2012 06:53 PM

i haven't played GTA IV, but the general consensus is that it's worse than what came before - the driving mechanics aren't very good, it doesn't have a very "open" feel and is too limiting, it's too realistic (San Andreas actually had some aliens if you cared to look for them)

Farfisa 02-09-2012 07:20 PM

The driving mechanics can be fixed with a mod if you have the pc version, but overall it was TONS more fun to create a massive shootout in GTA VI. I've always gotten really bored, really quickly with the gun play in the previous GTA installments.

bozo from anecdotal evidence

Hey, we're not in court now.

Farfisa 02-10-2012 05:41 AM

My cat is urinating on the carpet in the basement even though his litter box is clean. I don't know what to ****ing do, it's a aggravating that I can't get him to stop. He's in the laundry room for now.

Man, I don't know what to do anymore, things keep getting worse.

MoonlitSunshine 02-10-2012 07:16 AM

Did you move house recently, or has there been any change in the smell or anything of the house? If Male, it's likely to be a territory thing - a new house poses many new smells and unknowns that can make em piss everywhere but where you want them to. Generally they stop after a while, but afaik there are versions of those plug-in perfume emitter yokes, that are cat-relaxants basically. One of my friends swore by it after she had serious trouble moving house with her cat.

Howard the Duck 02-10-2012 07:18 AM

horrendously stressful and hectic today

my idiot of a despatch clerk didn't bring an affidavit for my client to sign and i had to see him myself

all this is also compounded by the fact I forgot to take my sedatives yesterday, which I need for the nights before Mondays and Fridays

desperate times, lots of things - a lot of my appeals didn't succeed, the firm is making a loss, several suits hanging over us for things which we didn't do - all perpetuated by a ex-partner who was a big fraudster, and i got nearly a whole week of trial next week, which documents i haven't really prepared yet, and need to beg the judge for an adjournment

it just keeps adding up - Chester is of course faking it - he's one step closer to the edge probably means his barber didn't do a good job and "breaking" means he'll sue the guy for poor service

me, I'm the real thing, you poseur

You better find those pills quick, along with an axe to deal with your clerk.

I just saw the above post after I posted mine, jeeeeeeeez you do have a lot of stress to contend with.
