Things That Made Your Day

[Imaginary Light]

My week long spring break starts after I get out of class tomorrow. Yay! I really need this. I feel like life has been so hectic lately. Even though I have some school things to do and worry about over break, I'm just happy to not have to sit through lecture after lecture for a week.

And then after break, rehearsals start for a play I'm gonna be performing in. So...life's gonna be even more hectic after break, buuuut I'm gonna be doin' what I love: performing.

Going back to my old college for a day and catching up with my old professors again, you see this years scriptwriting class was having a live public reading of some of the plays they are working on this year and seeing as how I was in the neighborhood I decided to drop in and give it a look.

It was actually a very good show as this year they were able to get local professional actors to come in and read their material, last year we had to do it all ourselves. Well not to say we were horrible actors or anything, but it's hard to compete with professionals.

Anyways, it was a rather fun day and it was quite relaxing to be on the other side of the stage where one's butt is not on the line.

My sister just made me laugh so hard. That totally made my day because I'm feeling pretty crummy right now. I love her.

Going to a Yu-gi-oh tournament, and although I didn't win, I got a ALOT of awesome cards.
Yeah, I had a good day ^_^

A guy at the store today gave me a dinosaur made of balloons.

This just in, from the Sims 3 site, on the matter of SecuROM:

Hello everyone I wanted to share news with you regarding our copy protection plans for The Sims 3.

We’ll have more information for you as we get closer to launch about everything we’ll have to offer on TheSims3.com and The Sims 3 Store, but we have heard your requests over the past months and here is our plan for The Sims 3.

The game will have disc-based copy protection – there is a Serial Code just like The Sims 2. To play the game there will not be any online authentication needed.

We feel like this is a good, time-proven solution that makes it easy for you to play the game without DRM methods that feel overly invasive or leave you concerned about authorization server access in the distant future.

We’re really excited to bring you the game for the PC and Mac starting June 2, 2009. The extra time we’ve taken to polish the game has resulted in an even better game experience for you to enjoy and we can’t wait for you to see for yourself!

Thanks for your passion and your loyalty.
Rod Humble

VICTORY!!!

That's awesome! It's about time they do something about that, with how long the heat over SecureRom has been thrown about. I guess that petition we signed a while back paid off after all. Or at least helped. I'm very happy to hear it!

This happened on Monday; my time off request during Comic-Con was approved. I am glad to have that taken care of.

[Cassini90125]

Very glad to hear that, dude. See you in July!

What made my day was discovering, barely a half an hour ago, that there's a wireless network available in my new area, which I'm using right now. For some reason my DSL connection and my phone refuse to work; AT&T is sending a tech out in about 12 hours or so to take a look at the problem. No internet makes me unhappy. In desperation I opted to take a shot at an unsecured wireless network and, well, here I am.

Now, who tried to get away with what while I was gone?
