So...apparently it snows here in the northwest. Totally did not think it would actually even hit Bellevue. Well, I get in to work and nobody is there in my department except Nick and I and one other...my BOSS. Of course right? Anyways, I asked if I could use a vacation day and leave for the rest of the day and if that'd be a problem because in my mind vacation days were days you could take off without anybody questioning you. Well apparently that's not exactly how it works. She essentially told me that I shouldn't and that I could use two half-days between today and tomorrow instead. Long story short (ish), I didn't have to take any time off because the office was closed down right around 2.
Nick was stranded here in Bellevue so he came over and hung out and is now sleeping on the couch. We played through some Left 4 Dead and then watched Collateral after having gone to the mall for dinner at Taco Del (short for delicious) Mar.
Left 4 Dead, as I'm sure everybody reading this knows, is amazing. It's amazing because it takes coordinated teamwork. Very few games seem to get this right. In Left 4 Dead, if you run ahead or are too far behind, you're screwed. The zombies will pick you off and tear you apart. It takes a cohesive group to get through unscathed - not that we have ever gotten through a level unscathed yet...someday perhaps. I am not known for my teamwork expertise, but I am hoping that through this game, I may be perfecting it.
In other news, I FINALLY WON A DUEL IN WOW! Against Lee no less! And we proved it was no fluke when I did it again immediately after. To be fair to Lee, if I am playing my class correctly I should win about 90% of the time, so it is through no fault or lack of skill on his part.
First post of mine! Where you at, Timbecile and Danimal?

Congrats on the duel! It might have something to do with all that practice lately :)
ReplyDeletePS you should also look at my cousin's blog, potatofarmgirl.blogspot.com
I don't know what I think about her blog...I flagged it for objectionable content because she was talking about heroin in it. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first read 'duel' I thought it was referring to some sort of feat of physical strength. I am now disappointed.
