I'm sure you'll do fine, Sor. Don't fret too much.
Better than me, I left my charger in a different city. Probably won't be back there until January or so.
You know, I really like the backstories in this game. I got a unit that has "Lancer Hater" (She hates the main anti-tank units) and "Tank Hater". I couldn't figure out why she would hate both, so I looked up her profile. (She is a frontline machine gun trooper)
"Squad 7 Shocktrooper, age 29. Her belief that a sound body saves lives motivates her to train her physique daily. In nine years she hasn't missed a day's workout. The heavy armor covering tanks and blast suits worn by lancers runs counter to her philosophy of fighting with one's body alone, earning them both disdain."
I have about 50 people in my squad, and all of them have stuff like this about them. I keep expecting them to be really generic or repeat, but they really don't.

Yeah... I don't really have anyone who would let me borrow a PS3 from them.
Although, I wonder if I'm getting one for Christmas. My dad cannot ever keep his mouth shut about anything, and he mentioned he bought me a Blu Ray player. He knows I don't have any of the latest consoles because I think they're overpriced, so maybe it's a PS3 and he managed to keep that part a secret.
Gosh. It sounds like I'm really spoiled with all the stuff my dad has been buying me, lately. I'm not, really. I mean... I rarely ask for any of this stuff and I'm not a materialistic brat. It's just that, well, I think my dad has always had this sense that he can buy my love. He's been more or less broke for a good while, so my presents mostly consisted of cheap little panda things he could find. And he thinks that isn't good enough. I think he got some money when his mother died, so he's been spending like crazy. Not just on me - on himself and his wife, too. He's always been like that. He'll probably keep it up until he's broke again. I actually wish he'd just buy me a cute little panda plushie. Getting all of these expensive gifts, while they're awesome, makes me feel kinda guilty.

Eh, you shouldn't feel guilty because someone got you a gift. I mean, unless you goad them into giving you something. Then you should feel guilty. Guilty as all hell.
Seriously though, you shouldn't worry about it so much. You dad wants you to be happy, and getting you things you like is something he can do. He does it because he wants to, and like you said he just likes buying things or else he wouldn't spend money on himself and his wife. Sounds like the kind of guy who just likes to spoil the people he cares about when he can. Thats what makes him happy, and it's how he decides to spend his money. I doubt he even expects anything in return other than you use it and like it.
And oh man, I love making food and hit a point to where I have to go, "Well, I have to stop here because I just completely filled the biggest bowl in the house." I was gonna add eggs, but rice and kielbasa with sauted onions is the best breakfast any time of day.

I freaking hate technology.
That is all. neutral
Sigh...
So I ordered something on buy.com but I decided to pay it with my amazon.com account. Unfortunately I used the wrong card (it says it's expired when it's not...) so I want to switch it to another one. Problem is my card is a debit card not a credit card (though it is BOTH but W/E. LOL technology!) Now it won't let me switch to a debit because it's too frakin' stupid.
Oh and lovely. We have those stupid security questions just so I can access My Account info but yah, LOL it's been years since I've ever done it. Not like just LOGGING IN to my account means I'm the ACTUAL person. LOL AMAZON LOL.
Also CD-ROM doesn't work because it hates me too. Freaking....hate.....stuff....

Oh God. I hate security questions. They're mostly s**t anybody could figure out by looking at your driver's license or talking to you for ten minutes. What the ******** is so "secure" about that?
Nobody would ever know my mother's maiden name. It's not like she used it for over 30 years. Nobody would ever know the first car I owned. It's not like I still drive it. Nobody would ever know my favorite band/book/animal/etc. It's not like I ever talk about those. Pah.

Yeah I just canceled the order and bought the DVD with Paypal. I hope it gets here on time. I ordered it on the 10th but now it's the 14th.... -____-
I hope Paypal goes through. I haven't had any problems on it so far.

Am I going crazy, or did the text for the topics listings in forms get really tiny? I have to squint to read it.

Dear girls, stop being so damn complicated. I tell you about how I'm really upset over something that has nothing to do with you and that I feel kind of bad because I've been rather tight-lipped about things I'd really appreciate an answer longer than one freaking word and some dots. Or at least that you'd answer your phone about five minutes later.
Ugg, I'm so damn tired of all this stress. It just be nice if something just f'ing went my way without a single damn complication.
Lady, you may try defaulting your browser's text size.

I am such a dork, but making silly things like this for him makes me smile. >.>
Also, Pyre, I won't call you Lady, promise. =) It makes me think of Lady and the Tramp way too much, and I don't really think of you as a brown cocker spaniel.
