I am hopeful because.. This is sort of a shock, but my lovely wife is pregnant again already. Our youngest is only 14 months old, and we've known for a bit now. We just wanted to be sure before telling people..

It's a shock because we had pre-cautionary measures in place. One of the doctors told us we should go to Vegas because the chances of becoming pregnant with the aforementioned measures were something like .02%

Anyway, Febrauary 26th is the due date for this baby, and October 2nd we get to find out what we're having.

There'll be no replacing Max and I am happy with my girls, but I hope this one is a boy. :)

Congratulations, Toad!

I got a new dog!

His name's Stanley!

I expect a cigar for everyone here, Toad.

Earlier I ordered Asura's Wrath, the Devil May Cry HD Collection, and the Capcom Digital Collection for a total of about $54, less than half of MSRP for those all combined (and less than Asura's Wrath alone would cost at retail after tax).

Also, I'm in Kentucky for four weeks, housesitting for my aunt. I've been here since Saturday, but never posted about it.

I finally got my own laptop since I'm going away to college fairly soon. Incidentally, I can finally download games (my parents had a "don't download anything" rule for their computers). I made a Steam account a while ago to purchase Portal while it was free for a short time, and now I can finally play it. Portal seems like a good first game for my new laptop.

Portal's a good game for any reason at all, really.

You know those pictures going around of refrigerators that have a terminal on the front that does Twitter and Facebook stuff? Seems stupid, right? Well if it were a fridge that played Portal it'd be another story

When the Japanese Consul General of Seattle asks you to translate one of the 100 Poems by 100 Poets for him, you don't decline. (Done and done, by the way.)

My dad and I just finished building a new Shrelf (Shrek Shelf) for me to hold all of my Shrek-related stuff! The boards were pretty heavy and I'd never used a hammer before, but once it was all done it was pretty easy in hindsight. My most recent addition, the Halloween Pale (INSANELY detailed by the way, it's a real treat when you look at it up close), went straight in the center. And now I have some new experience as a handyman, too!

I just got back from Creepyworld, a haunted house kinda thing, with some friends for a birthday. It was really disappointing, but we all had a lot of fun anyway.

Weegee · « **Reply #5755 on:** October 28, 2012, 10:26:03 PM »

Your first mistake was expecting a place called Creepyworld to be creepy.

Ninjap00 · « **Reply #5756 on:** October 29, 2012, 04:37:36 AM »

I hadn't been to a haunted house since I was eight years old, so of course I was expecting it to actually be scary.

Gay marriage is legal in Maine, Maryland, and now Washington.

Washington, as well as Colerado, has also voted to legalize pot.

Nice one, America. Keep on truckin'.

I'm imagining a grand alternate universe where Obama headed that process to further court the youth vote.
