Another Four Day Weekend
Wow its been deplorably long since I've updated. When this happens it becomes harder to actually narrate what has occured lately, and the entry degenerates into a pointless ramble about whatever is on my mind like so many other livejournals.
Today my only adventure was a trip to campus which after much reluctance I managed to get myself to partake in order to attend the Entertainment Council meeting. I get there only to find a notice on the door stating "meeting cancelled." But I find Azver in the ASUCD Senate Office and he steals my complaining rights because he came up early from San Fransisco for the meeting that was cancelled. On my way ought I run into a similarly disappointed Arya who had also come to campus specifically for the cancelled meeting. Hooray for entcon communication.
Discoveries
I discovered another amusing web-comic, www.wigu.com, courtesey, of course, of the automatic most recent lj picture updaters.
And while studying for ancient Russian history I discovered www.wikipedia.com, an online open-source encylopedia which is immensely useful for looking up obscure historical things.
Civ 3
In other news, Mission Viejo is now the capitol of America in my game of Civ 3. The rest of America was overrun by angry MEChA aztec forces, but I took sympathy on the foolish American people and gave them a city which I named Mission Viejo. Then the Greeks were about to capture a small seaside village of mine so I named it Laguna Beach and gave it to the Americans.
The French and Greeks have been annihilated. My imperial armies are now crushing Babylonia with tanks and bombers.
As democracy tends to disfavour the state of constant war so cherished by my regime, and communism isn't as enticing in Civ 3 as it was in Civ 2, I think I'm going to stay a monarchy forever.
