Networkings

I'm about 98% of the way moved out of Brian's and about 20% of the way moved in to Mike and Maya's. These are about as good of statistics as I've ever had. I've got a few large items still at Brians (Bike, Futon, Couch, Kitten) that require extra hands and/and modes of transportation. Busses are pretty big, but I don't think toleration would be on the up and up if I drag a couch on board.

As to the M&M's (see what I did there?), I was truly only about 5% of the way moved in but it seems being the guy on the couch is incentive enough for them to give me a kickstart. I came back from work a couple nights ago to find they had situated my TV, Computer and Surround, cleaned up the basement area, and prepped an actual bed. Rock on. All that was left for me to do in the situation was speaker up the room and cable the shit out of everything. I took care of enough of that last night so that Mike and I could network up our XBOXes and throw down on some Halo 2 action. Also, he upgraded his surround while I set mine up so now he is kicking ass (or, more accurately, getting his ass kicked) is 7.1 DTS ES. I think we should set up some sort of King-of-the-Hill winner takes upstairs, loser takes down. Somehow I don't think he'd go for that.

So- anyone down for some system link XBOX fun should swing on down to 74th street. We're all set up for 8-players, we just need a few more duplicate game copies to get things going.

With regards to P&P: I didn't blow it off for XBOX sweetness, I've actually been sick for the past few days and couldn't bring myself to get out of the house. Just a clarification because usually I'll never pass up that phenomenal pizza and less-phenomenal Miller Lite.

Side note: There's a mysterious smell I noticed upon arriving at work today that I can only liken to that of when you have a burner pumping gas into the room and no flame to take care of it. I couldn't find the source and don't have much of an option but to remain here until someone else arrives, but the headache I have and the fact that my hands and lips feel kind of numb is probably a bad sign. Oh well, at least if I die everyone can now know I was MySpacin' til the end.

That may be the most pathetic way to go out. Ever.
