Free Wifi Adventures

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

I had some internet problems yesterday so last night, I was forced to seek out alternative sources of internet.  My phone has terrible data coverage where I am right now, so the only option I had was to find a place that has free wifi.  In comes the public library.

The library was already closed at this point, so I chose to do what any normal person would do: sit in their car with a laptop in the parking lot and use their wifi!  There was already another van of two people who seemed to already be doing the same, so I guess I was in good company.  Once it got dark though, I felt super creepy for sitting in a car at night in an empty parking lot.  Every single twig crunch I heard caused me to look around for the person who could be approaching my car (I was getting paranoid for some reason too).

About 2 hours into my internetting, a car pulls in and parks right next to me.  I avoided looking over for as long as I could, as to not be any extra creepy.  But then I saw the glow of a laptop screen in their vehicle.  Does everyone seriously do this at night?  Is going to the parking lot of a place with free wifi just a common thing that I, for some reason, never knew about?  Maybe the people in this small town (read: population 6k) are just different than other people =)

In related news, I have internets now where I’m staying and will not have to do the above again!

Video Games and Stuff

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

I think this is the longest I have ever gone without playing a video game.  Yup, just checked my last save game file.  It’s been almost three months since I’ve played a video game.  Dang.  One quarter of a year.

I have played little games on my phone, but I don’t really count those.  I did play Clue and Life pretty recently as well.  Those, however, are board games and also do not count.

Here are the top 5 games I want to play:

  • Mass Effect 2
  • Alan Wake
  • Heavy Rain
  • Starcraft 2
  • Uncharted 2
  • God of War 3
  • Assassins Creed 2

Yup, there’s my top 5 games.  You may have noticed that there are 7 games.  That is actually an illusion.

Hey ya meerkats I’m back

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

From my vacation!  Thanks so much to Joe, Alex, Ray, and Connor for their excellent left-handed toons.  We met Connor at ConnectiCon a couple years ago.  Not only did he manage to snag our comic number 800, but he’s also currently the curator for Cowbirds In Love, in addition to manning his own comic, Drawing Board.  HAT TRICK.

We haven’t yet met Alex and Ray IRL, but they’re total dawgs.  Buttersafe is consistently wonderful.

And as for Joe, well, what can you say about Joe?  Probably anything, because Tally Hall fans are dying to know WHAT IS UP. #savejoehawley

In other news, a few weeks ago, Jesse Young and I talked about the whole Subway cheese THING, and he posted this great article about it while I was gone.

And finally, here are a couple drawings I did while I was on vacation.  This one is a patriotic guy:

And this one is titled “Pug Butts”:
