"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.

Second Life (http://secondlife.com/) is a massive virtual world. Its kind of hard to explain, but I am clearly addicted already. I guess you can call it a game, but there is really no set objective to the game. Its a virtual life you can live out, and just about anything you can imagine is there, or you can make it yourself.

There's a game out for the Nintendo DS that is very popular called Animal Crossing. You raise crops, build your own house, etc. You have to play it every day to cut down the weeds, etc. I'm not explaining it very well because I don't understand it very well, but it seems to me that they have some similarities in that they're both real-time games.
