The Mind Of OverlordTomala

Last night while I was in costume I went out to get some v8 juice and some iced tea (I was pretty warm), and finally found a nice place to sit at in one of the parks so I could grab a sip of tea and this kid starts talking to me. I’d wager that he was about 14 or so. He asked me how my trick or treating was going… Told him that I went to some weird house where they were giving out big v8 bottles. What was weird was that he wanted me to give him directions. So I pointed at one of the local churches where I saw 3 people (one of them being a pastor) and said “That dude is handing them out”. Then I left. Wouldn’t want him to come find me afterwards.

Another weird thing was that someone actually recognized my costume. There were some high schoolers dressed in homestuck troll garb and one of them rode a bike up to me because they saw my horns. Needless to say I was surprised people in this small town even know what homestuck is.

It’s that time of the year again, my favorite holiday arrives where I get to dress as freaky as I want. Here’s a pic:

Yesterday was a cold, boring day. I mostly played around with some Doom mods I found (one of them being Brutal Doom), and made some nice Italian sauces to go with some pasta. Oh, and the tedious task of organizing my recorded files and removing things that were no longer needed. I freed up almost an entire 1 TB hard drive so I think I’m headed in a good direction. 🙂

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. I’m gonna sleep and prepare for my work adventures. I’ll at least have some fine food to go with my hour of entertainment.

Today proved to be one of those days where I was glad I charged my laptop before leaving today. All these people charging their lightweight tablets and netbooks with maybe one regular laptop. I surfed the web and decided to play a little Q3A. The rest of it was boring. I came home, played a bit of The Stanley Parable, then ate some burritos and decided to sew buttons back on to some pants and one coat while listening to some metal. Nothing like some HEAVY METAL SEWING!!!! OOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Then I decided to kick it back in Linux for awhile since I didn’t really plan to do much else for the evening. I’m updating the laptop since almost every game on it is seriously out of date. That way tomorrow I’ll have larger selection of things to freak people out with in the cafe.

Oh, and TGIF!

Nothing much happened at work. Didn’t play anything during my lunch break or even when I got home. I mainly went into Fedora and installed video editing software to experiment, just to see how it works. If I have anything to work on under the Linux side I’d like to be ready at the very least. I’m already setup for podcasting in mumble. I shouldn’t have any issues editing the audio with Audacity. I’m finding myself in Linux more these days for the usual stuff like TF2, web surfing and a few other games, and going over to Windows to use other things that I don’t have access to under Linux yet. Like my creative suite, XFi, games that haven’t been ported yet, SFM etc.

I also customized my xfce desktop to my liking. Made it aero like (transparency). That was one nice thing I liked in Win 7 was aero. Muuuch better than it’s Vista counterpart. But yes, now I have transparency on all of the things. w00t!

I was going to release my video tonight, but I’ll wait until tomorrow night when I boot into Win 7.

Ok, I finished that video project, had more smoothies and played a bit of TF2. I’ll probably publish the video tomorrow when I get home from work.

Also the Italian sushi never happened. I brought pizza to work. Oh snap! I could have had pizza WITH sushi on it! Classic New York cuisine…
