Well, that moblog game is not getting a lot of interest yet. Maybe it’s just too hard.
Anyway, I really wish more people I knew (okay, anyone I know) was moblogging. I feel alone out there, even though there are a fuck-ton of other people moblogging. Its kind of like looking at someone elses vacation photos, only with a touch of voyeurism (thanks to the proud pretty girls that moblog). Not quite as fun as if I actually saw things and places I recognized (which was a little bit of the point of the game).
Anyway. It’s Friday and I celebrated “Ecclaire Day” for the first time in a few months. I don’t get the chance to very often, so it’s a little more special now-a-days. Used to be, Heather and I would go to 7/11 every day for coffee and a power bar. Well, money’s a little tight, as is scheduling, so now we pretty much never go. This morning I had to walk some paperwork across campus, so Nick, Steve and I wandered over to 7/11 (which happens two or three times a week) and I decided since I was there and spending someone else’s money (thanks craig), I’d get an ecclaire like back in the old day…
Which reminds me of a funny story…
So Steve had an NPC in his D&D game that made masterork ecclaires. My character in said game walked in and was trying to get info/snoop around so he started making small talk, the guy offered him an ecclaire saying if he hated it, it would be free, but if it was the best he’d ever tasted, he’d agree to buy a dozen…
I can’t remember, but I think steve actually made a roll for it. So anyway, in character I’m like pretending to eat this thing, a complete mouth full saying “uhg, it’s awful, (mmmm), this is the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth, (oooh mmm), I can’t stand it.” The whole while shoving more and more in my mouth…
The guy (Steve) looks at me and says, “So you’ll be taking a dozen?” and I hang my head in shame and very dejected mutter “yeah…”
It was the next friday after that, that I first celebrated “Ecclaire Day.” That ecclaire was so good in game, I had a week long craving for them.
Anyway, so Steve and I are planning on doing some more Geocaching this weekend. There’s a multi stage cache a couple miles from the house he’ll be staying at next week. I really prefer multi stage caches, so we’re gonna give that one a try. It says there’s a lot of briars in the area (terrain: ***), so we’re gonna take the ole’ “limb chopper” with us. I hope we find this one… the first part of the cache is a micro cache so there’s not telling. We’re not really experienced yet so we may be stepping beyond our abilities here. I’ve only done four and Steve’s only done two.
Anyway, after having the whole week off last week, I fear that this weekend is going to feel really short. I want to enjoy it, but I may not have enough time to wake up, eat, enjoy myself and still get to bed early enough to not regret it.
I need a job that starts later.
