"School Birthday" and other news

[zenmondo]

I just got Conor off the bus, and to my surprise he gets off the bus with Birthday Cake, and presnets! I ask him what was going on, and he said, "we pretended it was my birthday today".

They threw Conor a school birthday party today. I guess because his real birthday is during the summer break. He got some Star Wars Attacktix figures, as well as some other small gifts and a Curious George videotape.

The tape is playing right now. Its old stop-motion animation Curious George. His cake is also curious george. Conor really loves Curious George.

This was so sweet of them to do. I wish I knew about it and could have been there. Well I am sure his teacher will be sending home pictures before long.


In other news, I forgot to take my meds last night, and so couldn't sleep. So I haven't slept since yesterday. I am pretty shaky. I think I will probably crash hard. I am exhausted but I don't feel like I can sleep.

In other news, I am quickly becoming addicted to Second Life. I am even having Second Life dreams. Its crazy. And its crazy fun. I am enjoying myself immensley there.

Hey, man: remember when you were talking about "focusing your geekly powers"? well, if you're up to it, I'd love to have your input on a couple of projects I'm working on. Might be fun: and hell, I'd love to talk to you more about the theory that we were discussing. You seemed to really GRASP it really FAST, which makes you a minority of about 1. ;) If I have an Idle up on AIM, try me anyway; it often means I'm there, but working.

Also... have you, personally, tried the Synchronisma demo yet? I threw up a larger one last night, because I was so nervous about something crashing and my losing the complex "moral programming" I spent three days straight working on... but it isn't linked anywhere, because it'd kill my TotS bandwith ATM. But if you want to try either, I'd be honored to see what you think.


And RE: teh Conor: that's adorable.

I'd love to talk to you about your projects. I have downloaded the demo, but have not played it yet. I'll admit its because Second Life is quickly eating up my First Life. But I guess you of all people can understand the appeal of getting lost in a virtual world.

The appeal to some people, maybe: as long as you're AWARE it's a virtual world. But you know how I feel about forced choices.

Grab me on AIM, sometime! And I have a much longer "demo", that I might need some beta-testers for. I'm... pretty blown away by it.
