For the record having a car ROCKS!!!! - have mums car for a month while she is over in the US visiting Shan and Dave and it is so great been able to cruise off and do whatever I want, whenever I want - I can't believe I avoided getting my license for this long - of course been a dirt poor ex-student probably contributed to that but hey - time to save and get one of my own - the world will probably run out of oil before I get a car but hey I can dream.
And on another note am totally geeking out - I got Dawn of War running on my machine - w00t!!!!!! Space Marines, Dreadnaughts, Warp Spiders, Bloodthirster, mega geeky w00tage - I is in Warhammer 40K heaven.
And to top it of me and Steve finally watched the last few episodes of Deadwood season 1 - my god that show is the schiznit - a massive cast of intriguing characters and no holds bared veiwing - if there is one show people must see this is it - just don't watch it if you have issues with swearing - it got me and I worked in a shearing gang for 3 seasons. |

 Bears are strong and independent creatures who roam in the forest in search of food. Bears are usually gentle, but anger one and be prepared for their full fury! You're big, you won't back down from a fight -- classic attributes of a bear. Intelligent and resourceful, though lazy at times, you are a fascinating creature of the wild.

Steady, reliable, and cradling her tenderly. Take a deep breath, and let it out real easy...you are The Slow Dancer.
Your focus is love, not sex, and for your age, you have average experience. But you're a great, thoughtful guy, and your love life improves every year. There's also a powerful elimination process working in your favor: most Playboy types get stuck raising unwanted kids before you even begin settling down. The women left over will be hot and yours. Your ideal woman is someone intimate, intelligent, and very supportive.

Me so happy - Going Postal has finally gone paperback, and he just released Thud! - though have to say Postal hasn't managed to topple The Truth, Monsterous Regiment and the Night Watch series from my top Pratchett book - it was very good but it lacked that certain something. Then to top it all off I was having a skim through the cheapy bin at Whitcoulls and what do I find but one of the few Battletech books that I don't own for 5 bucks - score!!! - between that and the ones my sister has ordered for me off Amazon I must nearly have the whole series.
Plus I have a total Whedon-thon going on - after watching the whole series of Firefly last week, Steve managed to find a vid store that had season 5 of Angel so bring on the greatness - all the great witty dialogue and Spike - its all good - though I have to say the 4th episode scared the crap outta me - person chopping of own fingers + empty eyesockets = Rikki freeking out - curse my over-active imagination.
Managed to get thursday afternoon off to say goodbye to Mum before she heads off to the States to see Shan - then realised I can probably take her up to the airport since I am having her car while she is away - driving back from Auckland by myself is a very scary prospect though. Glad she is going over though - it will do her good to get away from everything and go see her little girl - she needs a break. |

Cast list rumours for the voices in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (follow up to Morrowind for those not in the know) - Lynda Carter (the original Wonder Woman) - fair enough, Terence Stamp (cool), Patrick Stewart - hell yeah!!! and....Sean Bean - double hell yeah!! - a couple of the coolest voices around - saweet.
Lost is back and as mind-fucky as ever - just watched the first episode - there were a couple of WTF moments, then watched the second episode with its mammoth WTF!!!!!! moment - watch the shark thats all I say.
Finally scored Firefly off a guy at work and watched it - that show is damn awesome (mind you when are Whedon shows not) - the last couple of episodes where River gets a little more involved were damn cool and War Stories has to be my favourite episode - the space station assault is cool - am so hanging out for the Serenity to be released so that the story can be cleared up a little. Have to say Fox are fracking morons!! they cancel all my favourite shows - Dark Angel, Angel and now this - what the frack is wrong with them.
And the people making BSG are also complete and utter bastards - just the latest episode - which was very very very cool and ended with a mean cliff-hanger - and then Steve tells me that the next one ain't out until January - seriously - WTF!!!! a couple of weeks wait okay but 3 months - thats just cruel.
Okay done ranting now - please return to your regularly scheduled reality |

Final Result - Labour: 50 seats, National 48 seats - stick that up your arse Don Brash - that was far too close for comfort. - Course the Government is probably gonna be a hodge podge of parties so heres hoping they don't spend all their time jumping up and down on each others toes and actually work together. |

Take the quiz at dicepool.com
You are a good old-fashioned six-sided cube, otherwise known as a d6. Others know you to be plain, predictable, conservative, average, ordinary, and downright boring. You prefer to describe yourself as dependable, honest, practical and trustworthy. People usually know what to expect from you, since you rarely hold any surprises. You hate to make decisions, and if forced to decide, you'll always fall back on how it was done in the past. You always order the same thing at your favorite restaurant, and your jokes, while funny, are never too offensive. It seems that you are well liked, but maybe that's simply because there's nothing to hate. |

w00t!!! Day off work = happy Rikki - though that is kinda mitigated by the fact that its 6am and I am wide awake - stupid fracking body clock!! We came fourth at quiz night (I think) - can't really remember on account of the $200 bar tab from the previous week - but mental note - walking back to Coates St at 11 at night wearing only a short sleeved polo shirt is not a good idea - think I managed to give me a chill (dumbass).
On a seperate note I have to ask "What the hell is wrong with Japanese people" - they have to be some of the dodgiest people on the planet. Starting playing through Resident Evil 4 again (God that game is great) and decided to use the characters alternate outfits - Leon gets his Raccoon City police outfit - which is kinda cool - and Ashley gets...yes...well - I guess you would call it the cleavagy jailbait slutbomb outfit - its kinda dodgy given shes like barely 18 (I hope) Between this and the quasi-schoolgirl outfit she has originally its proof that Japanese people are a bunch of perverts. (And Capcom know their audience - you can apparently attempt to look up Ashleys skirt and she freeks and calls Leon a pervert - Capcom just knew their customers were gonna try that)
Right the sun is up so its time to get started on packing again - boxes? Check!! Heaps o crap to pack? Big Fat Check!!! Motivation to pack? Um...now I know I had it somewhere here..*scrabbles around searching*....Ohhhhh Resident Evil 4!! Now I must play thee. Note to self - find motivation to pack at later date. |

w00t - I have stuff to keep me occupied - yay!! Just brought a copy of Zelda: The Wind Waker off Trademe - I have no real desire to play Wind Waker BUT it came with a bonus disc containing Zelda: Ocarina of Time - one of the BEST action RPGs ever - happy days for Rikki - I spent many hours playing that game on the N64 and its still as much fun as ever. :)
Plus I finally got a new book to read - Mark One got in some new Warhammer 40K novels and they had a new Gaunts Ghost book - yay again!! Problem is the way I read books it'll be finished in a couple of days and its back to square one - if only Hamilton had a Borders I would be a happy man. Mind you I still "A Short History of Mostly Everthing" sitting on the shelf that my sister brought me for Xmas - I got about a 5th of the way through and ran out of steam - I think I should pick that one up and finish it.
DOH!!! though - I lent my XBox to Steve - the poor lad was suffering withdrawel since his Box went to the great junkpile in the sky and he needed games. No music, no movies - big fat DOH!!! - what shall I do for my hit of Def Leppard. Still, a friend in need - he had the shakes already (though Kiri said he has installed Cricket on there much to her disgust - how dare he sully my poor little XBox with such an evil game) :) - but he did put on Outlaw Tennis as well so I may forgive him.
We had a great night at Quiz Night last night - Tillys friend Meghan is back from the US (she was one of the original Geek Force) and we so totally kicked arse (with not inconsiderable help from the quizmaster mind - why they help us win I do not know) - 1st place + the jackpot = $300 bartab - hellllooooo inebriation. Plus we scored 100 points - first teamever - go the Geek Force!!.
I decided that I am so taking next Thursday off cause I don't know if I will be any condition to go to work (not that I am most days - cursed human need to sleep!!) so I used up one of my annual leave days - its gonna be goood :).
And that weekend is gonna be a killer as well - Tillys party got postponed to that weekend so it will be hammered Wednesday night, recover Thursday, work all day Friday followed by work Quiz Night followed by more inebriation at Coates St, recover again on Saturday and then move to Coates St on Sunday - I figure I might need another day to recover after that so I booked the Monday off as well - mmmmmmm long weekend. |

Well, that was an interesting weekend. Dyn moved out of the Coates St flat and they now have an empty room (what am I gonna do for my weekly dramas now ;) - I got a message from Kiri on Saturday on MSN saying she was sending me an email - "ooookay thats different" I thought to myself - she sent it through - "Reasons why rikki should move in" hehe - long story short I am now moving into the Coates St flat in 2 weeks - damn Kiri and her logical arguments. The money I would save will be great (about $40 a week) though I will miss this place and my massive room (and a kitchen you can move in) but the greatet thing is the fact that I will have cool flatmates that are fun to hang out with. Now I'm faced with the daunting task of packing and working out how I'm gonna fit all my stuff into the new room (its half the size of my current one). So looking forward to it - YAY!!! * breaks into the white boy happy dance *
And I spent all weekend playing Resident Evil 4 with Steve and Kiri - my god that game is awesome - and its so freeking huge. We played from 9pm on Saturday to 4am Sunday and then another 6 hours on Sunday afternoon and are barely halfway through - seriously that game is reason enough to buy a Gamecube.
Right must go sort though all my accumulated junk for things to throw out - curse my packrat mentality!! :) |
