lucky?! luck has NOTHING to do with it!

so there wasn't a "tonight" yesterday, i ended up going to bed and busying myself with some much-needed dreaming. i feel much better for it :)

i woke up and spent a few hours working... just reducing the amount of pressure i'll have on sunday, of course :) the clowns released another, supposedly less-buggy version of their api... they changed shit around again, but as usual didn't include anything in their javadoc. fortunately, i've begun receiving heads-ups from my POC there :S

i played some syndicate, but the colombia (columbia? i'm too lazy to check) mission was piss easy and took forever, so i wasn't left satisfied. lots of reading, i did - specifically king rat, and a couple of the shadowrun short-stories that zenstar linked to. great stories!

my jerusalem cousins picked me up, and we went to her place to celebrate her birthday. too - much - good - food. as usual. one of the jerusalem cousins plays mean table-tennis, but not much better than mine, so we played a lot of that. i haven't properly enjoyed that game in many years.

people say that it's lucky when a bird shits on you. it is lucky - FOR THE BIRD, 'cause we can never catch the fucker. what's lucky is when the bird-dropping misses you by a few inches. THAT'S lucky. i'm feeling LUCKY >D
i just smiled at the splash that missed me, and carried on.

i just got in, and have nothing to do but relax for a while. i like it.

oh, and sagirl sent me this:
