The Mind Of OverlordTomala

Open Thread

Been taking care of my cold. Thanks to some zicam tablets I have managed to get my throat to calm down. Now if I could get my ears to pop I’d be in good shape. I’m actually surprised I’m still awake too. I’ve been zombified the entire night and enjoying some lemon ginger tea with honey.

Working during the morning to evening reminded me why I hate mornings. The anal retentive asshats are always awake at that hour. It also didn’t help that I’ve gotten 7 hours of sleep in the last two days, so I had to seriously act like I was enjoying myself. I had this big rant planned and everything to write. But somewhere along the way I lost the muse to write it. I think I’ll save it for another day and hit the rack a bit earlier than usual.

On a happier topic I got my laptop colorized for tomorrow. I’ll probably just stay upstairs since I plan to bring a big lunch. Coconut chicken, rice and a spicy cucumber salad. With a nice green kimono top to go with the theme. 😛

So I’m on my lunch break right now…

Enjoying some soup. My throat feels a little better today, been shoving cough drops down all day long. Had my shift changed for tomorrow so that I won’t have to work the hell that is the shoe dept. The downside is that I have to get up earlier but, I’d rather do that than work shoes. So I probably won’t be around much tonight.

So anyway I’m in the usual area where I take my lunch, updating my steam games on free wifi and listening to my friends in mumble.

Work has been pretty quiet tonight, should be pleasant the rest of the evening.

I hope it isn’t a cold.

Hopefully I only scratched my throat on something, it’s very sore today. Didn’t really notice it until I woke up half way through my sleep to use the bathroom. I don’t have a fever, but I do feel a tired still (though that could also be the lack of sun I’ve been getting due to this AWESOME summer). So I’ve been doing what I usually do when I have a sore throat. Pour down lots of lemon tea and honey.

Gadies and Mentlegen! Welcome our new partners in crime.

Quite a few of you know that we at SNews have been ruining it for everyone else since 2004, but that doesn’t mean we can introduce new blood to the table. I would like to introduce everyone to a young fresh new group. Check out this is a gaming blog!

They write reviews, talk about new releases in the tech world (and on Steam), and plan on building a YouTube channel among other things. Keep an eye out, because your Overlord of the internet might be spotted over there once in awhile, and vice versa. 😉

So corngrabulations and welcome to our insane family. Lets see what we can wreck.

Well, today is a good day to have off.

All the fun gaming stuff seems to happen when I either have a 3 day weekend or a vacation. During the last two vacations I had awesome stuff happened in TF2 (meet the pyro, the release of SFM, MvM). I have another 3 day weekend to burn now, and part of it looks like it will be related to Black Mesa Source! I wonder if I should record some gameplay from it for my pootube. I haven’t posted anything there in awhile.

Early Morning Open Thread

So I made the mouse a little heavier tonight and lowered the DPi for sniping purposes, seems to help me a bit with my trigger finger. The weight holder can hold up to 6 little weights. There are two sets, 1.7g and 4.5g. I decided to fill all the slots with the heavier type. Yeah I’m really enjoying this.

Also I had pizza tonight. It was nom.
