there is a bat or some other animal in the wall behind me. i am upstairs in my bonus room (finished room above the garage). i assume this animal found its way into our attic the same way as the bat from a few weeks ago (search my post history for "mother nature").
we've been keeping our upstairs attic access door in the bonus room closed, so whatever it is shouldn't be able to get into the living spaces unless it can squeeze itself between the carpet and the bottom of the door. i don't think i have to worry about that, though, because it seems to be stuck behind the wall in a small nook near the top of the stairs.
every 10 seconds or so, i hear it spaz out and struggle. about 10 minutes ago, it stopped, so i thought it got free. but just a minute ago it started back up again.
i'm pretty sure it's behind the wall. there is a small chance that it isn't, though. that corner of the bonus room is where we keep our filing cabinet, and i can't fit back in the nook to look behind it and make sure there's nothing back there.
so yeah, a motherfucking bat might jump out from behind my filing cabinet and attack me at any moment. i'll keep you guys posted.

Just talked to my mom, apparently my dog can't even move his lower body anymore. She said she was going to take him to the vet to get another diagnosis and ask for the "stronger stuff" they had, but that she didn't know what to do if the vet said it wasn't going to be any good. Apparently he doesn't cry or whine or anything to imply that he's in pain, but he's immobilized so he just barks a little or whimpers and then my Mom has to pick him up so he can lay outside and go to the bathroom (I remember from winters in the past, all the yellow holes and brown dots in the snow, haha) and then pick him up and bring him back in. I told her not to do "anything" without calling me first. She told me I couldn't miss work and I told her screw work, I can leave early one day and drive back home or take a vacation day, there's no way I'm going to use up 14 days anyway, or a sick day or something, but that I want to be there with him if he has to be put down. I'm only two hours away.

I have this Quake 3 map that has been sitting on the back burner for months!! Yes I know Q3 is old, but I wanted to get this map released even if Q3 is a litte bit past its prime. And well I had a bit of time and its pretty much ready to be released. But I want a custom Soundtrack to be included in my level. And having a very hard time finding something I like.
I found something that is close to what I want, but it doesn't quite fit. I think it needs something a little more dark and mysterious.
This is a track I found, its actually about 1/3 of original length. I asked the author if I could cut it down and he actually did it for me and made it loop and removed some voice samples I didn't like.

Now it would be awesome if a musically inclinded Shacker could record a short looping track about 2 mins in length. Or if anyone knows of some music that might be better suited toward this level. Here are a few screenshots of the level to get ideas.

I based it off of this image, but I didn't do any tracing or anything of that nature http://jofis.com/gypsy/tick.gif
Clearly I stretched the head out, and made some other obvious errors but I think it turned out ok.

So I end up winning a gym membership, but I ignore the message on my machine since the gym is located way too far away from my apartment, and there was no way I'd go to it.
Now I get something in the mail saying that I have to fill out W2's and pay tax on the $2500 value of the gym membership.

What's the deal with the different regions and stuff? What's the point of it? I'm not a big movie watcher guy, or a very smart guy for that matter, so I just barely learned about the whole different regions thing because I was looking at some DVD's until I learned that apparently they are Region 2 DVD's, whereas I am apparently in Region 1. Is there anyway to watch them? What would I have to do? Is it illegal? WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE

It's been a while since I've done dual monitor, but I've decided to turn off my second cpu for a little bit and do dualies. Problem is, I haven't been dual for a while now, and I remember managing my old ones easily out of the display properties window. Now, when I try to do it via Horizontal Span in Nview, it resizes my primary desktop to some weird size; I need my primary to be 1280x1024, but I can't figure out how to set it to this res in Nview.

Actually more of a Shack and StooFoo meet as half the peoples were StooFooers.
We met up at Grizzly Peak Brewing Company, which is a pretty tasty restaurant, and it's not an exploded antique shop food franchise to boot. It's rather dim in there, which is nice for eating, but sadly caused redeyes all around for pictures.
Dante showed up fashionably late, but even though he was in staying in Detroit and it was bloody cold outside, he was damn pleased to be there.
http://www.nflight.com/files/shackmeet2005/shackmeetfirstpicture.jpg Clockwise from bottom: fetii, Dante, PUPSTAHS (capitalized so he's not confused with pupismyname), Christa (Rob's girlfriend, although I might be getting her name wrong. =( ), majestik, and elosorojo.
Later we asked the waitress to take our picture. It was a tight squeeze but going from left to right, but this time with real names:
http://www.nflight.com/files/shackmeet2005/shackmeetweareallpossessed.jpg
helvetica (Jocelyn), fetii (Jason), Dante (Andy), PUPSTAHS (Glen), Christa (Christa), Majestik (Rob), and elosorojo (Pat).
Then we meandered over to Pinball Pete's. No pictures taken, as that didn't go over too well last time we tried that.
Someone came up with the brainwave of eating ice cream, so it was over to Stucchi's. They have really tasty fro-yo.
http://www.nflight.com/files/shackmeet2005/shackmeetdecisionsdecisions.jpg
PUPSTAHS and Dante approve.

Rob on phone. Without the flash my camera gets fussy, and with flash it washes things out. But hey, better than nothing, right? Right?

Dante uses hand gesture to make a point. What it was I have no idea. Probably about how Michigan people say "robot" funny. Dante has a sweet accent though so we let it slide.

A blurry Christa and Rob, the latter playing with his camera phone.

Dante took pictures of PUPSTAHS looking wistful.

The guy friend on left, me on right. My hat's not on straight and I look I'm considering eating his head. He's talking with PUPSTAHS about Warcraft 3 I believe.
