The Title of This Update Is Update Title
March 04, 2002
We played our first volleyball game since the “All Star Break” and lost both. One guy went back to Korea for good, one guy was sick, and another guy came to the gym and said he couldn’t play. I don’t mind that they didn’t come because they made sure I knew that they weren’t coming. Then one girl didn’t come because she said she was sick too… but she called another person this morning to say she was “sick” and wasn’t coming. I told them all to call ME if they couldn’t come. What sucks is that only 4 of us showed up and we need 5 to play. Anything less than 5 and it’s an automatic forfeit. I have given up on this team because not everyone is willing to commit. I am never joining another work team anymore unless I find really good people next time (we’re not good). We played one game for fun anyway and it was boring. Volleyball is so boring when it’s not competitive, it’s like batting around an old pepsi can for no reason. To hell with my team.
I updated the links, contact, and about me pages. Some minor tweaks really. Two people I don’t know have emailed me as a result of reading my updates. One is someone who asked me about something accounting and another is a guy with the same name as me. That’s cool. If I don’t know you and you’re reading this, I’d love to get email from you (I’m sad and desperate for attention). I also wanted to change the randomly changing pictures but I just realized my camera has been dead for a long time and I don’t know if I want to try to fix it or not. That really sucks.
I found my Mech4 cd’s and today Jeff grabbed them to… copy… them… so hopefully we’ll have a new multiplayer game. I finished Deus Ex yesternight. I haven’t tried all the endings but the two I tried are kind of shitty so I think I’m not gonna bother with it. The game is great, but once you know the whole storyline, it’s over. Replay value = 0. The same goes for System Shock 2. Actually, the replay values go back up to 9.5 when you leave the game in your storeroom for a few months and you forget everything anyway. Dennis should be finishing up his school stuff soon and so we can continue our system shock game.
I’m going out for dinner with Akito from Japan who’s been here a month but I haven’t had anytime to see him until now. Doh. He’s leaving in a couple of days too.
And my closing point for the day is that the way MSN Messenger and Outlook are interconnected really bugs me. Firstly, a contact on your MSN list will be automatically placed into your address book. That’s kind of convenient right? No because if they’re on your MSN list, they’ll probably already be in your address book but those two programs don’t recognize that they’re the same person and the end result is that there are double entries of the same person. I just spent a long while cleaning out my address book of people I don’t talk to, people I don’t know, and people who are on my list twice. Dammit.
