My body's back to normal!
Okay! I just watched another episode of CSI Miami.. a pretty sick episode, I kinda feel sorry for everyone. And this afternoon I saw an interesting episode about a sniper and another one about a mass murder. Man, I'd hate to be a CSI agent. Anyway, we better have some CSI:Miami marathon soon, before I finish watching these 7 dvds :P
Anyway, let's go through stuff today, then stuff yesterday, and then a little bit about Magic.
----------------------- Full Metal Alchemist ------------
Every few entries must contain something about Full Metal Alchemist, don't they? Anyway, Jason posted something about FMA recently, and now I'm doing the same. Both he and I have seen episodes 41-42, which are now subbed by another group other than Spoon.
Anyway... wow. Episodes 41 and 42 were such gems. They were really good. So, to recap, episode 37 was great (funny episode), 38-39 were meh, not bad, and then episodes 40-42 are a real treat. Lots of information in episode 40, and a lot of stuff happens in episode 42. And episode 42 has a new intro and outtro, and as Jason says, you can see that the series is winding down, while still a lot of stuff has to happen.
I can't spoil stuff, so I won't. I'm satisfied now, but ooh, episode 43 previews... that part with the train station... ooh, I'm looking forward to that. And all the references to "him"... and everything... Oh yeah, Sloth is hot. Lust is hot too.
Spent most of today working on proof-reading, revising, etc. a document (instruction booklet) for a product from my dad's company. Did some other chores, went to Rogers to replace the modem from the old house, etc. Tried a new smoothie flavour from the gym, "Mean Mocha", and it tastes pretty good. It's a light mocha, not too mean, but it's high in protein... it tastes like one of those Coffee Crisp or Mr. Big or whatever milkshakes.
And OMG! A few hours ago I realized, due to having friends over yesterday, I missed OutbackJack! AHH!! I'm actually following this show... ahh, now I've missed an episode and won't know what happened to Jack and the girls... ahh.... oh well.... ...
------------------- Tuesday ---------------------
Yesterday was Tuesday. Jia was sleeping over at Hawk's, and so we called him because they wanted to do something... they wanted to leech rides of Duy and go places, but Duy didn't agree so they just came over. A few hours later David came over.
So we played a bit of settlers, Jia won... played Tales of Symphonia, we're 7 hours through now, although we were lost for at least a half an hour... Played a few hours of old smash... also played F-Zero X, kinda - for some reason the F-Zero X cartridge doesn't want to work anymore. Played F-Zero GX a bit, just story mode... I mean, only Hawk played. Watched some F-Zero X speed runs and other F-zero related stuff on my computer... Jia did his Mugen thing...
Isaque brought over this drink he bought from a store. It's called Kashmira, and the top 2-3 ingredients include Carbonated Water, and spices. SPICES? What kind of a drink is that? Anyway, I tried it, it tastes weird. Jia says it tastes like Curry Chicken, both Hawk and I say it tastes like BBQ Sauce. When David tried it later, he almost choked on it or something.
Anyway... Ricky had a drink at his place, it was like, cold herbal tea, but kinda weird. Kashmira is kinda like that too, but less herbal and more bbq-sauce like, and really, really weird. Anyway, after they all left, Hawk left the bottle here with 60% still left, so I washed it down the drain. So, I recommend you don't try this, unless you're feeling experimental or adventerous, in which case you can try it. Who knows... maybe you'll like it better than Sprite Ice.
Anyway, while we were playing Tales, David came over. I played a few magic games with him, some 3 player ffa games, etc. I also made a new deck, Duy played against me, I almost won but he pyrite bombed his myr servitor very nicely which caused me my loss. Eventually, KFC came with the chicken (Hawk had a large box of fries to eat), etc, stuff happened, had fake cheese cake, and etc, and eventually everyone went home. David left around 12:15, so I immediately went to bed afterwards so I can wake up the next morning (today) for the trainer session.
----------------- Magic ------------------------
I am convinced that I need (want) to buy Mirrodin boosters. There are a few uncommons that could be really useful, so before I buy more darksteel, I should at least get some mirrodin. Also, on that note, Alan, Jason, wanna come over and bring your mirrodin/darksteel/fifthdawn cards so we can trade? :)
Anyway, as I said above, I made a new deck, 40 cards, and it works pretty well. I'll probably officialize it t0 60 cards soon. I'll keep the deck somewhat secret for now. As for my current deck, I just officialized it to 60 cards as well. I want to keep it at exactly 60 cards, so I'll have to make room to stick in the Darksteel Gargoyle...
Anyway, I hope to sell my ravager soon and get some mirrodin boosters that time too. Maybe I should buy the uncommons by itself... I dunno... and I also want that Arbiter... oh well.
---------------------------
So that's it. Busy this weekend, probably busy Friday afternoon. Maybe we can have people over tomorrow? Perhaps. We'll see. Busy Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, but we can probably get people here on Monday. So yeah, I'll do that. Also, Alan, you have to come here one day to work on the d20 game, preferably early next week.
::edit:: One last thing! I finally received my official Premier Fitness Membership cards, which includes 2 free guests 30-day passes. I think I still have the free 1-week passes too. Anyone want any? I'm not sure if my parents want any or whatever. Anyway, the passes must be activated within 60 days from now, so if you want one, speak up. ::/end edit::
