XWA One Year Thread Part VII: Shadows of the Forum

[edlib]

Not really a cold... just... blah.

I think it's just the result of going from: "full-out, running on caffeine and adrenalin mode" to: "nothing"... literally overnight. No cool-down, or ramping down into relaxation mode.

My body just releases all the tension and toxins it's been storing up all year at once, and I suddenly feel like absolute ****-on-a-stick.

Seems to happen every year at this time. As soon as work ends and I have a couple of days to chill out, I wake up one morning feeling like a truck hit me. Achy and exhausted and just generally run-down.

It could also be that I suddenly have free time to think about stuff again, or just a basic lack of focus and motivation, bringing on a mild case of the blues... seasonal or otherwise.

[Rogue15]

take some jack3d that will wake you right up! im feeling down the last few days about my past relationship. doesnt look like any chance of getting back together with her, and i havent discovered anyone that isnt taken or being pursued/pursuing someone else. other than that though, things are looking up for me. i just keep questioning myself why i always feel i need to have a girlfriend and why dont i enjoy being single? no answers ever come to me.

[edlib]

Spending a lot more time with my mom all of a sudden isn't doing me any favors either.

I love her... but...

2 full days and I feel like I'm on the verge of insanity.

[Rogue15]

yeah i am that way with my parents...lol

get swtor, it's so fun.

[Wildstar]

A bad cold/flu has put a damper on my holiday. I'll be missing Xmas Eve @ my aunt's.

[Rogue15]

geez dont you old people get flu shots anymore?

[edlib]

Forced myself to go out earlier... partly to pick up some much needed supplies... partly to get out of the house for a few hours.

It was crazy out there. I managed to get everything done... but I instantly regretted the decision to be anywhere near a store on this date.

Merriest of Merry Yuletides, all! Hope it's the best one ever, all around!

[Keyan Farlander]

Merry Christmas, all.

[K_Kinnison]

merry Christmas everyone. Quiche is in the oven. Coffee and tea is brewing. Christmas music is playing, lights are on, and my cat is snuggled on top of the sofa

[Rogue15]

actually had a non depressing day, went out with my friends here to the air force side of the base and played shuffleboard, pool, ping pong, and fooseball for about 4 hours then we went to chow and brought back to the ready room like 6 bottles of sparkling grape soda and 2 cartons of non alcoholic eggnog. good times.

'Cards Against Humanity' (it's a spoof of apples-to-apples)
hilarious. absolutely hilarious.

but they bash the republicans quite a bit in that

[edlib]

Didn't do much today. The family was all to busy to get us all together, so we are doing it this weekend.

Slept late. Mom made a baked ziti. Watched the Top Gear Holy Land special again. Played some games.

I may buy myself the Skyrim expansion packs later as a Christmas gift for myself.

I got the game also. I wouldn't play it with people who are easily offended or could react badly to someone making political commentary against their political leanings

In the main set out of 460 white cards only Three are bias against conservatives. Sean hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Newt Gingrich. I hardly think that is bashing republicans "Quite a bit" unless you think any republican being bashed is too much.

On Christmas my Wife and I went and saw "The Hobbit" in the 3-D theatre. Now for me, after about a half hour my brain gets tired and I can no longer see the 3-D. This time I brought in some 2-D glasses and greatly enjoyed the movie. When they had the long shots, or action scenes I would have the 3-D on. when my eyes started getting tired i switched to the 2-D.

And yes i admit to crying when we had the scene with the Eagles. In my life if I could every ride a large flying creature like that I would be willing to do anything.

[edlib]

I'm starting to feel better. Not 100% yet... but getting there.

Maybe I'll go see The Hobbit myself today. I wish I had someone to go see it with. Instead, I'll just have to be that creepy weirdo that goes to the movies alone if I want to see it on the big screen.

I have to get gas and a car wash as well, while I'm out.

[Ikhnaton]

This has been a crazy but overall good year. Finished all my requirements for dental school, including NBDE II exam, WREB exam, clinical requirements, etc.; graduated from dental school; got an excellent job in Vermont; moved my family across the country; enjoyed a white Christmas; and knocked up the wife again.

This past year saw the arrival of such material things as a new/used car, an iPad 3, and most recently, a Bose WaveRadio III with a bluetooth connector.

Looking forward to a new year filled with lots of dentistry, a new baby, some time to travel and visit family and friends, and of course, all you degenerates.

[Rogue15]

got the supplement 'no explode 2.0' going to go to the gym and test this ****. **** gaining 30 pounds, i was supposed to lose 20...going from 170 to 150 not 170 to 200! lol drinking like 6 bottles of water a day at LEAST. hahaha driving through the desert in an uparmored m1151a1 is ****in sweeeeeeet. i get paid to do this hahaha. i never had this much fun at walmart!!!!

[Keyan Farlander]

Now I think I'm getting sick

[edlib]

Bummer.

Saw The Hobbit. It was great. I saw it on just regular old vanilla digital projection though... no high frame rate 3D IMAX...

I didn't feel like sitting there for almost 3 hours with 2 pairs of glasses.

[Keyan Farlander]

What!? xwingalliance.net has expired!? Noooooooooooooooo! Somebody in charge renew it!

[edlib]

When did that happen? And why do you know it?

No snow here... just rain and a lot of wind. Thankfully.

Off to the doctor today... just when I'm feeling better.

It happened on Christmas. And I know it because that's how I always get to this forum!

[edlib]

Ah. I have my LF control panel as the bookmark.

Not sure who owns the domain, but he may no longer be around, if it's who I think it might be. I've made an inquiry in the staff private forum.

My fever lifted in time for bowling last night and the big family get-together @ my little sister's today (joined for the first time by my big sister, of course )

Yell at Lynk for that, he's the site admin

[Wildstar]

Domain(s) were renewed, but there is that directory error that's been referenced. At least one admin is aware of the problem.

[Rogue15]

bored...worked out twice today. elliptical workout and interval workout on the treadmill. havent ran on a treadmill in a while....and it sucked. guess i will just focus on that and get faster, interval training is fun and burns alot more calories than the elliptical did. but...it hurts more. hoping my ankles arent ****ed tomorrow.

[edlib]

This has been a boring week off for me. I've been feeling the sting of loneliness especially hard the last couple of days. I'm actually looking a bit forward to getting back to work.

Having the XMas get-together with the family tomorrow. Sunday, I have to wrap up a few things before I get busy again.

[Rogue15]

had fun today. i'll post the video on my facebook deployment album later after my friend sends me it.

[K_Kinnison]

my dad is visiting over the New Years. Doesn't want to do much more then relax. Been trying to find an all inclusive New Years Eve party around here and all that is happening is special dinners, Bands, and Champagne toast at midnight. Not like in Madison where I got a hotel room, Buffet dinner, 2 Free drinks, a bottle of Riesling and Free drinks all night.

Great, thanks!

Man, I was really sick yesterday. I thought I had fought it off, but it came back full force. I couldn't do anything but lay in bed. I feel quite a bit better today...I just hope this time the improvement is the real deal.

[Rogue15]

my new years is going to suck. last new year's was great. god i hate being single. i miss my ex, which i really shouldn't. i got a stupid profile on a dating site, one of the free ones and chicks dont even look at it, and i message some of them and like maybe 1 out of 50 (i have not emailed that many) got back to me. it's hard for me to find girls that aren't being chased by 2+ other guys, and even harder for me to start a conversation with them. i'm sortof afraid to talk to them and get interested in them again because my last 2 were psychobitches. where can i find nice+attractive girls that would give me a chance and aren't into that huge house n babies? maybe i should find myself a pothead. hmm.

then again, k_k, weren't you on eharmony.com or something? how exactly does that work? and can you tell the matches on it that are subscribers from the non subscribers? i dont wanna waste money on it if i'm trying to communicate with matches that aren't able to talk to me if they could. my one battle buddy here used christianmingle.com which doesnt want to work for me, but that is how he found his wife-and she is ****ing hot.

[edlib]

New Year's Eve will be the same old, same old...

John Scofield Uberband... NPR national radio broadcast... 2 sets... should be home by midnight...

My haul at the family Yankee Swap today: Some fancy chocolates, a $25 gift card to Target, and a giant red fleece blanket.

I'll probably break down and try the online dating world myself at some point... or just throw in the towel and call the time of death for my love life. I haven't decided which yet.

[K_Kinnison]

My dad is visiting for the new years. Not much is happening. but the fact i shared with him my Dragons Milk, and later after enjoying a home cooked sirloin steak dinner, we went to the local Beer bar and split a premium Night Tripper Imperial stout. Both beer's were decalred by my dad as excellent beer's.

Also with some of the Christmas money I went and bought an Extra Xbox360 controller and Forza 4.

Forza 4 is nothing more then pure Car porn. Love it. Took me 5 tries to get first place on the Mountain race in a T-bird.

Tho my Dad is having fun kabitizing my Forza 4 playing. When he was in the other room i asked him "Dad should i get a 'vette or a T-bird?" he immediately said "Oh God, get the T-bird"

since my Dad is a car nut it has lead to some great bonding momments

[edlib]

Join my car club in F4. Niner and leXX are in it, but they never race. I'll send an invite...

[Rogue15]

about to go meet the dallas cowboys cheerleaders. nothing better to do on my day off.

[Rogue15]

purchased a helmet camcorder......met the cheerleaders lauren williams is hot, she reminded me of my ex but without the bull****.

[Keyan Farlander]

Well, this year had some nice moments but was a bust overall in terms of life progress. Bring on 2013!

Somebody start thinking of some good names for the new thread!
