'TWAS A MARVELOUS BIRTHDAY07/27/10 @ 9:55 am
Erica helped make for a wonderful birthday yesterday (and Sunday too) :D On Sunday we went out with another couple to Macaroni Grill (she planned it) and she insisted to pay for my dinner (aww<3) While there she also decided to tell the waiter it was my birthday, which resulted in a free slice of cake (delicious) and getting happy birthday sung to me in Italian (filling in "Pat" in the song sounded funny.)
Yesterday when I got home from work I found a note saying she'd be home shortly and sure enough moments later she arrives with an oreo ice cream chocolate cake.
I want more of it now but I don't think I should have cake for breakfast (I might cave, we'll see..) After that we went to Target and got Diablo II because she said for my birthday she'd play it with me (:DDDD) so we'll be doing that this week sometime. ALSO she spotted Big Bang Theory season 1 on DVD on sale and bought it (I'd never seen the show) so we watched a few episodes last night. I very much enjoy this show. Needless to say she is wonderfully sweet and lovely <3

So it's been quite an intense (and wonderful and awesome) week. It's not quite over yet but we've done a lot so far:

- Wandered around Seattle/Pikes Place Market (we rode the monorail to get there :D)
- Went to dinner with some friends at a BBQ place
- Bought random things from Target to help improve furnishings of the townhouse
- Got a few Bluray DVDs (Matrix, Serenity, Dark Knight)
- Played Link to the Past (didn't beat it yet..)
- Went to Lost night (watched Lost with friends which occurs every Tuesday at about 9:30PM PST)
- Made tacos
- Painted pottery at university village
- Wandered around university village and in Crate & Barrel, scoping out couches
- Ventured off to JCPenny to look at more couches, found thecouch
- Traveled to Ikea and wandered through the entire store, looking at things and getting ideas for more furnishings; bought a sweet desk and also a night stand that goes with my bed
- Ate chicken tenders and fries at the exquisite Ikea cafe
- Put the desk together and totally rearranged the loft
- Went to Subway and got delicious sandwiches
- Bought a whiteboard to enhance the officeness of the office (okay and gaming) area (the whiteboard can be used to strategize key sentry building points on TF2 maps)
- Went back to JCPenny to buy the couch
- Ate lunch at the Macaroni Grill (it was quite delicious)
- Cooked quite a few fried egg sandwiches cause I'm a pro chef
- Smiled at each other like, the entire time
So basically it's been absolutely great and Erica is wonderful and it's been fantastic having her here and I can't wait for her to be out here again :)
Valentine's Day02/17/10 @ 9:41 pm
Sometimes people get chocolates, or other things. I love chocolate. Chocolate is delicious. However for valentine's day I did not get chocolate. However, this is completely okay by me because instead I got this:
I never owned an SNES growing up. I never beat A Link to the Past. It is wonderful ;_;

New Jersey Adventures02/02/10 @ 12:07 am
So this past weekend I went out to New Jersey to meetup with Erica, a wonderful person. I started talking to Erica several months ago; we just chatted about nerdy things, played some TF2 and Borderlands together, and we really seemed to click. Fast forward a bit and we've grown on each other (a lot) and so I went out to pay her a visit and hang out in person. We had a really great time and definitely clicked even more so. She's wonderful and fun and smart and didn't I already mention Tf2 and borderlands? I mean c'mon. YOU ARE AWESOME ERICA. Oh yeah and we met up with Jason (webmaster extraordinnaire of zeldauniverse.net) to grab some lunch and hang out a bit and he's cool even though he likes macs. At least he thought my Zune HD was slick 8]

GREETINGS FROM 201001/17/10 @ 3:25 pm
It is now 2010. I believe 2010 will be a fantastic year..I should try to post more things on here. Maybe links to awesome stuff. Or not awesome stuff with warnings that say "CAUTION DO NOT VISIT THIS PAGE" so that you know never to visit whatever links I post because they are terrible. THROW OUT SOME IDEAS THERE'S A SHOUTBOX OVER THERE and I fixed it after it being broken for a like a month WHY DID NO ONE INFORM ME OF THIS. jerkfaces. EDIT: kreebby did in fact inform me of its brokenness, which is why it was fixed in the first place today. I should have called that out but forgot to in my rage at everyone else. Thank you, dearest kreebby, my love you for you burns stronger than all the fires of mount Doom.
ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY C10/09/09 @ 5:29 pm
(that means you mr chen) let us celebrate with irc highfives
Today is the future10/09/09 @ 5:27 pm
Today is October 10th, 2009. It is really October 9th, 2009. However it is really the 10th, thus making today the first day of the rest of the future. Mr. Sparks has based the rest of his life on this future date which is not really today, and thus chaos is beginning to spread through #treehouse. We can only watch as those lovely inhabitants of that IRC kingdom bost on their plogs and celebrate events before they happen.
The Black Box?!06/04/09 @ 11:34 pm
So there's been some outrage recently about Left4Dead2, mostly along the lines of: L4D JUTS CAME OUT IN NOVEMBER AND THEYRE MAKIN A SEQUAL AND IT WILL COST $50 THIS IS STUPID IT SHOULD BE FREE DLC"
And hey, okay, I can see how $50 to drop for a sequel which seems like more of an expansion than a full-fledged sequel seems ridiculous... however this got me thinking (and I'm not alone in this), that perhaps L4D2 won't just be a standalone game. There was a notable lack of info around Half-Life 2: Episode 3 at E3 this year. When Episode 2 was released, it was bundled in "The Orange Box" with Team Fortress 2 and Portal. Now, of course this could be entirely wrong and Valve is actually planning a $50 L4D2 (which admittedly I will probably buy) and Episode 3 will be released in 7 years.
OR it could be released with L4D2. But then what could a third game be? Hmm... Well Black Mesa looks interesting... Valve is aware of its existence... Their trailer says "2009" as the release, and L4D2 will be released November '09... AND THE LAST UPDATE WAS IN NOVEMBER 2008 WHEN THE ORIGINAL L4D WAS RELEASED?! THEY'VE BEEN HUSH SINCE!? CONSPIRACIES!!!!!
