Morning Discussion

by Alice O'Connor, Oct 21, 2009 6:00am PDT

Putting down The Witcher is proving to be very difficult indeed. Whenever I see anything from a fantasy RPG my finger instinctively hovers over the shortcut to load it up, which naturally can be awkward when working video games. Here's hoping all news is about post-apocalyptic zombie shooters until I finish. I started Chapter 3 last night so I still have a long, long way to go until the workplace is again safe for me. Fine video games.

Fun fact of the day: Wednesday was actually invented in 1873 by sly entrepreneur Egbert Hieronymus V. Echrang, though most wrongly believe it was actually 'the druids.'


















  • For some reason that little girl being abducted in Florida this week is really getting to me. Maybe it's because her mom was a total tearful wreck on CBS this morning, maybe it's because I'm getting to the age where having kids of my own is starting to make sense, maybe because I have a friend dying of terminal cancer and this week has been a shitty emotional roller coaster already.

    This morning the cops were talking like there was still some hope of finding her, but the evening news just said a child's body has been found in a landfill near there so it looks grim. I'm not usually a violent person or death penalty advocate but if they find the animal that may have completely destroyed that family, I hope he gets what's coming to him and then some.
