tuesday, wednesday, arr

I still haven't finished my Puzzle Hunt entry because I suck.

Yesterday in the afternoon I went over to Sunset and tried something new for DDRing -- 5 games, but playing all Standard songs pretty much (stuff in the 5-7 foot range), with my crazy mod set (1.5 Boost Hidden Shuffle Dark Reverse). Just kept moving and playing but didn't really try pushing myself to do any really hard songs (because especially lately I've just had crazy breathing problems playing). I think it was good. I may do it again Friday afternoon. It's nice in the afternoons because the place is deserted.

I finally got lightbulbs and now I can actually see in my computer room again. Yay.

In the evening, I had the finals for OCL Sea Battle, which we lost 2-1 REALLY narrowly. It's sort of a shame, honestly... from now on they might as well just pick sea battle teams with a lot of good swords and one good navver and one good gunner or something. On the other hand, I wonder if I really care about giving up my familiar -- after all, I stopped wearing it for a while because I was sick of 1) explaining it to everyone 2) having some of those fucking psycho crews like Monkey Hunters following me around all day 3) how dumb it looks in 5/7 of the poses it has or whatever. On the other hand, it's a prestige thing. "We're Shuranthae's team, we should win." Or something. Oh well.

Chernabog logged into PP again! It's so good to talk to him again, after two months or so. He says he won't be on much, just from time to time, but that's great, I really did miss him tremendously.

After OCL I went over to Megan and Josh's house and I hung out with them and with Mark for a few hours. It was good to catch up with Mark.

Today I didn't do much. I got a call this morning from a recruiter from Amazon, of all places, which was interesting, and adds another dimension to my job search. I had OCL brawl in PP, and we went 3-1. Then I went to dinner with Megan and Josh and Mark. We went to Blue C, but unfortunately it was really crowded so we ended up sitting on the tables at the side of the restaurant rather than at the conveyor belt, since we didn't have time to wait. I ate a lot of sushi and it made me happy.

Then I had to take Mark to the airport, which made me less happy, but I guess I'll see him again at Carnival.

I came home and logged into PP and have been pillaging since. I'm back up to #6 in the ocean for carpentry. That makes me feel a little better.

I have an interview in 11 hours. I wonder what "business casual" is. Maybe if I wear a shirt that isn't a t-shirt with my jeans... hmm.

This article on 'business casual' from [livejournal.com profile] geeketiquette seems about right to me. Not that I have a lot of experience with it either...
