The subject line is my new favorite phrase. It comes up frequently in certain discussions and just reassuring the truth about it, ascends me from the depths of depression I have been teetering in and out of lately. But things in general are well, ok I guess. I read my last journal entry and I laughed, so much changes in so short of time.
The Betrayers of Kamigawa prerelease went well, the T-Shirts are gorgeus (sp) and we met alot of cool people. We placed 13 out of like 30 I believe, I'm not sure how many but thats what I'm guessing. We pulled decent stuff and we had decent decks, I pulled out 2 wins/ 1 draw/5 games total, Andrew had 1/5 and Keven had 1/5? I think or 2/5 not sure. One change in deck construction might have landed us a totally better place, but all we can do is just remember the vital error we made and stray away from splicing good blue into great green, thus weakening our blue/black players deck and watering down the great green deck. Iaaaugh! But I did great and was proud of my skills, I only made one or two large mistakes the whole time but one would not have changed much and the other well... Perhaps...
I got some good cards in trade and I'm actually within grasp of a complete foil Kamigawa set. Now it may not seem like a big deal but it really is quite an accomplishment. I'm still missing a hell of a lot of cards but I've got a hell of a lot of em too.
D&D has been set back, we play again today. Thats cool...
Work has sucked, i've put in maybe 20 hours tops this week, its sad but oh well... The shows are comming up, it gives me the ability to exchange my weekends for work and perhaps a chance at sales.

I went out to dinner last night with Nicole, we went to see Andrew, it was fun, I got to know her a bit. Her and Andrew went shopping for engagement rings, so cool :) I'm happy for em, just, I don't want them to rush into anything.

Theres some family issues that just came up, and I don't want to throw them into this journal. If I seem downed later in the week, just know, theres reason. But it might not, so who knows.

So I'm at work right now, kinda bored, absolutely nothing to do, I think I am going to post the questions on Tishas journal and maybe a song thats on the radio. Maybe later, I'll write up a story for those with any interest in the creative fascets of my mind.

I saw this in Tisha's and seeing how I have nothing to do, why not?

----------------------
She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for awhile
Can I be a friend, we'll forget the past
Or maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
We're here and now, will ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry suprise, pink linen on white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools that fall behind,
And I'm somewhere between
Never really know
A killer from a savior
'Til I break at the bend
We're here and now, will ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
It's to far away for me to hold
To far away....
Guess I'll let it go....

The Betrayers of Kamigawa prerelease went well, the T-Shirts are gorgeus (sp) and we met alot of cool people. We placed 13 out of like 30 I believe, I'm not sure how many but thats what I'm guessing. We pulled decent stuff and we had decent decks, I pulled out 2 wins/ 1 draw/5 games total, Andrew had 1/5 and Keven had 1/5? I think or 2/5 not sure. One change in deck construction might have landed us a totally better place, but all we can do is just remember the vital error we made and stray away from splicing good blue into great green, thus weakening our blue/black players deck and watering down the great green deck. Iaaaugh! But I did great and was proud of my skills, I only made one or two large mistakes the whole time but one would not have changed much and the other well... Perhaps...
I got some good cards in trade and I'm actually within grasp of a complete foil Kamigawa set. Now it may not seem like a big deal but it really is quite an accomplishment. I'm still missing a hell of a lot of cards but I've got a hell of a lot of em too.
