The 'What happened to you today' thread

@JVElEven: I know how you feel, I can never find punctuation marks on other keyboards (and I've got two different types at home). The different design made sense for typewriters, I wish they were all the same now.

@ Mucro: the loves of my life! Cars an Planes Where's that place? And could you climb the ladder to get a glimpse of the cockpit?

Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire. It's like a Haven for people like me.

[M.C.Marcellus]

I'll definitely pay it a visit if I happen to be in the Midlands.

Update on my recent activities:
Thursday - went to see swedish rock bands Graveyard and Spiders, both were amazing. Third time I saw Graveyard this year.
Friday - hung over, but there is no rest for the wicked, so I went to go celebrate a friend's birthday and went on a drinking session.
Saturday - early up in the morning, I attended my little sister's birthday.
Sunday - Relaxaiton with my girlfriend.
Monday/today - went to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday.
Every of these days above - frustration over crashed laptop and being unemployed.

I've been very busy the last couple of days, quite a lot of birthdays lol. Overall it has been a great "weekend" starting thursday... and ending monday night.

I am so happy right now. I've been asking my dad for the last few weeks for a computer (As in a desktop, I have a laptop) so I can get Skyrim for PC instead of Xbox.

So I get home from school, and two Dell boxes are standing by the recliner, but I think nothing of it. My dad sells software and fixes computers for a living, so it's not odd to see random boxes around the house full of who knows what. When my mom gets home, she tells me that it's a computer and monitor, and my dad got it for me.

I can't wait to upgrade it for Skyrim...

So, I'm here, there, and everywhere, but I'll pop in (beyond just adding images to my Skyrim pages) and say that my Father and I bought an early anniversary present for my Mother. A little, adorable, male, fawn-colored Pug puppy...still deciding on a name...

[Eltee]

Awwwwwwwww...
Puppies are the cutesy thing ever. Bar none. Puppies have the power to make Hitler convert to Judaism.

My monthly issue of GameInformer arrived today. I should settle for some finnish gaming magazine, it takes weeks for this one to arrive from America.

Also, I drank coffee for the first time in 5 years. Will probably take me another 5 years to forget that horrible taste again.

Today I started my laptop just to see if any changes had occured. As odd as it sounds, the bloody thing booted without a problem.

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

Go Hippie! Now can you play games on it?

Today I went to school, and almost broke my arm. Clumsily.

[JVElEven]

Yesterday I was within one meter's distance of the Bugatti Veyron. I can have pics tomorrow if you don't believe me.

[Rynkar]

Today ( I think.) I went up a full half rank on the forum.
Yay?
Only 9 more halves till my plan has come to fruition.

Yes I can, but unfortunately it is an outdated computer. So I will still not be able to play Skyrim... Yet

Be careful what you do... it is no fun to walk around with a broken limb.

I pulled a prank on a deer today. They live in the forests near my town and show up at the edges of it from time to time. Using a loaf of bread attached to a string I goaded her around for at least a hundred yards. Not the brightest of animals but she did get the bread in the end so I suppose there's something to be said for her perseverance.

[JVElEven]

You evil evil man...

Nah, I'd probably think it was funny if I saw it in real life.

Today I modded a game file. Boring day, actually.

[Narzul]

I gave her the bread. That makes it okay, right?

[JVElEven]

Yeah, sure. But it makes you a bad jerk.

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

I celebrated my grandmother's birthday and didn't come home until 8:40p.m. 7:20a.m-8:40p.m. That's a long time to be away from home, in my opinion.

I helped my friend getting his new computer up and running. He had told me he had trouble with connecting it to the screen he had bought along with it, so we went to the store and found out the adapter he had bought was defect, but in the end he realized he had been trying to get the screen to work from the wrong entry... so I told him he had won the prize for "Biggest Fool 2011" but the trip wasn't that unnecessary as it turned out the adapter was completely dead and he had to get a new one...
I'm quite jealous that he got a brand new desktop and he is able to play Skyrim on the 11th... So I'm angry. Went home and blogged... Now I'm here... waiting for gameplay footage

[Arch-Mage Matt]

I went to a haunted house/event at which my aunt was costumed as a witch. We walked through the "haunted forest" where camouflaged people repeatedly jump out at you and try and scare you. We walked through a tunnel and into a witch's house, where the masked witch calls me by name (Matthew, Matthew... *cackle*). I think it's my aunt and move on, but later on, of course, I see my aunt for real dressed as a different witch. We ask her later she says she didn't ask the other witch to do that. The thought that the witch was watching my family walk through the forest long enough to get my name is pretty creepy, especially since she was a rather large woman and I think I would have noticed her (Because I repeatedly heard camouflaged people following us through the forest).

I realized nothing matters.

Sounds kinda creepy "the witch" has been stalking you! Was this some kind of Halloween event?

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

I am currently grieving for the loss of my long hair. And grieving because of homework.

You must of been rolling really good Listen skill checks.

I shopped for food. Not very exiting.

I got some Lord of the Rings Table Top plastic goblins with a beautifully painted Sam! I'm quite surprised with the detail and how well I painted him. It was surprisingly good.
