I played with some of the portal update tonight. Interesting stuff. Too lazy to finish it right now though.
Last night though, I was bored and decided to retexture one of my gmod players. Because you know… I hate haxxing and stuff…

In that picture the logo doesn’t display properly for some reason. I think it’s the boob. I didn’t make the logo by the way. I got it from BAD’s photobucket. It was supposed to be a shirt texture for Uru. But at least I’m putting it to some kind of use. 🙂

So there you have it, I’ve gone vocaloid.
>Open Thread
Tonight I met up with some friends at work and went out for dinner and drinks. So that’s probably why no one saw me today. I looked at my schedule that starts tomorrow and I get 4 days off in a row.
Guess I’ll have to come up with something to do.
Oh, and on another note. Green Chai is win.
>Dumb Children
Earlier tonight someone who friended me on steam was upset that they lost all their illegal games in a computer meltdown and wanted me to buy them a game. (this happens all the time with other people too… Kids that get left alone on the internet.) And just when I didn’t think this kid was stupid enough he gives me his phone number. At first I thought it was fake, but he seriously told me to call him. So I did what a good person would do. Yelled at him for it. He already told me that he’s 11 years old, he hardly knows me, he only met me because I happened to be in a chatroom once, not to mention that I’ve only talked to this person about 4 times, he doesn’t even know if I’m a guy or a girl, and here he is giving out his family’s home phone just so he can have someone to talk to?
During the days of dialup I was schooled in the do’s and don’ts of the internet. And the first and foremost thing you do NOT do is give out ANY personal information to people you don’t know. And why would you anyway when you have voice chat and text options? Do people NOT know about 411.com and other places that can track down information with a single phone number?
That’s the kind of kid that needs mommy or daddy watching his online time…
>Instinctive dreams
I had a dream this morning. It was something about being at a rock concert, I’m not really sure who the band was but I seem to recall seeing someone wear dream catcher earrings and a high ponytail. And saw good things happening to them. I woke up today and without thinking about it I did just that. And my entire work day was a good one.
I don’t think the dream meant anything significant. But after having certain dreams I like taking the advice (within reason), I once had a nightmare about a dog passing away and found out a few days later that one of my aunts dog’s had to be put down from old age. And another where a friend betrays me, and eventually she did. Again, I’m not saying it’s anything significant. But sometimes it’s better to listen to what moves from the back of your head and into your dreams.

This is how we celebrated being back together again.
>Life back in the cavern?
I’ve been following the latest DRC posts and reading over at the MOUL forum. I’m wondering if they’re making Uru Live an iPhone app. If so I hope that helps benefits Cyan. I’m wondering if people without an iPhone or any apple product will be able to get in though if this is indeed the route Cyan will go.
>Bratwurst in sour cream sauce
Here’s something I made today from “Foods of the world” German edition.
Bratwurst in Sour Cream Sauce:
8 Bratwurst
1 cup of Sour Cream
2 tbsp of butter
1/4 cup of cold water
1 tbsp of flour
1/2 tsp of saltBoil two quarts of water and place the brats in the pan. Then take the pan off of heat and let them sit int here for 2 minutes. Get out a large paper towel and lay the bratwurst side by side each other and pat them dry if necessary. Get out a large skillet and melt the butter, then add the brats. Keep turning them until all sides are a golden brown. Add the cold water to the skillet and reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer uncovered for about 10 to 15 minutes. If the water gets too low add a few tablespoons to the skillet. Take the brats out again but this time put them on a plate and cover them with the tin foil. Now place the cup of sour cream, salt and flour into a bowl and mix well, then add to the water mixture a few tablespoons at a time, stir the sauce around until nice and thick but don’t let it boil. Now cut up the bratwurst into 1/4 inch rounds and add to the sauce. Baste them with the sauce until they are heated through. Then serve.
Serves 4. Or 1 hungry pig.
You can also sautée some onions and/or saurkraut and adding it to the dish for more flavor.
