State of the Mika - 25th December 2008
* Finally found a job
Now this is a peculiar thing, as first I was hired as an insurance salesman, but later transferred to the post of Insurance Agent Assistant... with the same paycheck.
My job? Basically, distribute brochures and get contancts for agents. It's a wonderful thing, indulging my almost obsessive tendency to make lists... but I still haven't shaken the anxiety that goes with your first job. It's a bit annoying, but I'm slowly gaining the ability to shut it off.
I love my workplace and workmates, though.
* Fallout 3 released
Don't even say it. I've been waiting a decade for THIS drivel? Horribly designed world (how can I suspend my belief if it doesn't make any sense internally? INCONSISTENCY), butchered SPECIAL, non-existent choices-and-consequences, no moral amiguity, tragic writing and main plot, simple quests... my only consolation is the awesome art direction (really retrofuturistic), some background lore (<3 Museum of Technology) and that it's a decent sight seeing simulator... long as you ignore internal inconsistencies and implausibility.
Meh, I want Van Buren. And while we're on that note, I also want immortality, eternal youth and a lifetime supply of ho's of both sexes.
* Furmeets
My lovely corner of existence has furmeets too! The guys are awesome (gals stay away), we drink every friday and make me appreciate the fact that I have a loving family with a safe financial situation.
Of course, there is some furry drama. But hey, isn't there drama everywhere?
* I Suck At Helping Distraught People
I'm caring and understanding generally, but in person, I always have trouble to support people. Don't ask me why, it's a kind of a mental blockade. Or maybe it's the cynic in me?
* Second Life
I've renewed my interest in Second Life, with help from a certain New York dragon... one I created (cue sinister laugh) by exposing him to my furfaggotry. Mmm, sweet smell of victory...
Anyways, Tagaziel Kiranov's the name. Look me up if you want a chat or just someone to flame.
* Gaming
I'm at the "Grandpa" stage right now. Seriously, WTF is it with the general dumbing down of games? I miss the 90s.
* Politics
God dammit, introduce Euro already. I hate depending on chance when planning any foreign purchases.
* The Lion King
Is awesome. No, it's really, really awesome. Shakespeare with lions and a lifetime supply of awesome. It's like good wine, gets better with age.
This should be all. If I remember anything, I'll be sure to spam your Friends list more ;)
