Sales at gamestop!

So, haven't been posting much. Been busy, but not.

First thing, Dead Space 2 and Portal 2 were on sale at gamestop. $20 for Dead Space 2, and $30 for Portal 2. Both of which I've been needing to buy. I started up Dead Space 2 first, and I'm playing on Zealot difficulty. Holy crap, it's actually fun because it's a challenge. Up to the third chapter I think, and I hardly ever have a full clip in any of my guns =/.

Spent ~150 dollars on some books for Network+ and Security+ certifications. I wanted to pick up an A+ one as well, but Borders didn't have one at the store =/. Should be some good reading especially when I'm grinding isk in Eve.

Speaking of Eve, I'm in 0.0 right now with my old corp. Lost my first ship and pod in a while the other night. Ran into a bubble in my interceptor by myself D=. I haven't gotten too much into what's going on in our space, haven't really been available when we have our CTAs to assault the enemy. From what I've gathered though, we're winning the war.

I'll probably put up some more chapters from my DA2 game soon, but it probably won't be for a few days, busy all day tomorrow, and Sunday.

Car Repairs and not much else

The past couple of days have been pretty dull...ish. Just not much really going on.

I replaced my spark plug wires+spark plugs the other day in my 3000gt, here are some pics of the engine with the new additions. (First pic in each set is the old, and the second in each set is the new.)

 Other than that, I've got the start of little job next Saturday with my dad. It'll be interesting. I'll enjoy it more than my current job (When I'm doing it anyways, which isn't more than twice every two weeks currently =/)

I'm also picking up Eve and SC2 again a bit. Mostly Eve, I miss the time sink it gave me, not just because it was a time sink, but because I enjoyed it.


Here is my main character, all about the combats. Tons of skills trained to 5 for Amarr ships, and a lot of Caldari. I love missiles and lasers. Amarr ships are pretty cool, and Caldari ships are cool for me too. So I trained in one, and then now I'm maxing out my Caldari. (Kai Nah is her name)

And her old pic is here. I feel I got really close in the looks, with a bit extra that I wanted to add/change. Her eye color used to be a grayish color, I changed it to a green/hazel color, and was surprised at how close I got the hair color. I also couldn't put a metal plate on her face, so a tattoo will have to do.

Here is the pic of my indy char in the new char creator. (Meniku is her name)

And here is the old pic of her. I tried really hard to get the same facial features and fullness, but it just didn't work out that well. There is also the fact that there are no decals/accessories yet, so I can't have the hair bands and thing behind my head. I really couldn't get it much closer, the two systems were really different, and I couldn't get the cheek fullness like I wanted, and the nose was a little shorter height wise. Oh well, still looks good to me.

This lady at work was soo stupid.

I don't think I've dealt with a more mathematically inclined person today at work.

So this person owed me $19.46. Or something close. They wanted to give me a $4 tip, but they only had two 20's. So she wanted change for one of her 20's, I gave her two fives and 10 ones, but after that I didn't take the 20 from her. A fatal mistake. She then handed me a 20, and then 4 bucks. I then realized I still needed that other 20 she was holding, but she said, "No. This is the correct amount, I don't make mistakes on things like this." I then spend the next 30 minutes trying to babystep her through basic math and how she still owed me 20 dollars. She eventually just said, "Here, take it. Just take it, you know my number when you realize you're wrong and you can give me my money back."

Just wow. Some people. Some people.
