I just want to note that the rats in the walls have gotten loud since yesterday. It sounds like they're crawling directly on the sheet rock, dragging each other back and forth. It's making me crazy. I keep trying to write about my little wizard, and the damn rats distract me. That and I started reading Vali's Daniel Dawes stuff and oh my brain has gone off on a tangent.

I am trying really hard to keep my story from turning into a weird, weird, sexually charged ride through the woods. But I have the feeling it's going to end up that way anyway. What the hell is it with wizards? This one is so inept with people, I'm not sure he would know how to fuck if it weren't for the help of his more dashing friend there.

Alan's playing the new CounterStrike and raving about the refracted water coding. No, I really don't know how they do it. But it looks amazing.

:-D A new reader! Let me know what you think of it.

I only read the first chapter before I felt guilty about avoiding the confrontation brewing in my novel. I love it! There's something about that style of writing that I enjoy. Mysterious emeralds can never be wrong.

My boyfriend did the rain for that game!

Really? That is so neat! Alan was waxing poetic about how fantastic the game looked.

Hey, what's the new Counterstrike called?

Counterstrike: Condition Zero came with the new videocard I installed a month or two ago, but I hadn't installed it yet.

It's not the condition zero stuff. Apparently you can preorder the new Half Life, you can download the code for the new CS. It looks pretty swanky.

[multifoiled.livejournal.com]

Interesting. I'll have to check that out.

From what Alan was muttering last night, it's a pretty sweet deal.

Its called counter strike: source. Its a straight port of CS 1.6 into the new Source engine that is powering half life 2. Eyes bleeding beatiful. Go to steampowered.com get the silver package. It takes a couple of hours to download but at least you dont have to wait until the 16th. For $60 you get half life 2 cs:source DoD:source and accsess to all of Valves previous releases.
