Got our landline wiring upgraded! Internet access speed suddenly jumped up 2.5x! Whee!

On the downside, the change in phone number is going to be a bitch. Need to fix that with the bank, with relatives, and the few people who still contact us over landline.

Still, access speed spike! Yey!

I wouldn't recommend it. spotty, and expensive. Ask BJ for a better take on the system's faults. Great for emergencies, and when you really need to check mail or send off a document, but I wouldn't recommend it for standard surfing.

Checked out the gallery of an artist I absolutely loved a few years ago, and they've only gotten BETTER.

I mean, god, look at that detail. ;_; I'm a sucker for elaborate sculptures.

When do you treat us fishballs?

I'll be an assistant at a tech company. Very Happy Dakilang Alalay, in other words. Very Happy

It's not very glamorous sounding, but I think the work would be interesting. And more importantly, IT IS A DAY JOB. I CAN HAVE SEMBLANCE OF NORMAL LIFE?

As for the fishball treating, that will have to wait upon my first paycheck. Very Happy

@t-b-c: You can just treat me to another mojito. Razz

In other rave-worthy news, I had my first D&D game today, which was fun! I've played nWoD and 7th Sea, but it feels different to play D&D, somehow, since that's always been my idea of what a "real" tabletop game is! Thanks to AAS, quickbrownfox, boy_bakal, and juaberman for the time and the general awesomeness. :] PARTY LEVEL UPPPP~

This probably isn't really news to most of you, but:

DND ON THE MICROSOFT SURFACE?

I LOVE THIS. LIKE A FAT KID LOVES CAKE.

You're right, Knightingale. It's not exactly news to us.

For the record, I want to grab me an MS Surface just so I can make my DnD games better. And that huge Iron Dragon will be a nice addition to our brood of dragons (which you saw last Christmas Party)... Twisted Evil

However, while it fits the rave thread, I'd appreciate it if a particular topic stays under one thread. Please redirect all further discussion regarding the Microsoft surface on the 1st link I provided.

Personal: Naps are fun Very Happy
Local: GMA is gone (as president, at least)! Hooray! XD

I imagine a celebration reminiscent of the final scene in Return of the Jedi Razz
