Random fact: did you know that Detective Conan has 350+ episodes? Finally a long running new show! Speaking of that, I am gonn help out the lame adult swim promotion which is amusing regardless.
Speaking of sites, I was talking to Lars and he/we attempted to find a Chi Alpha group in London. So far we haven't had any luck but this appears to be their main page if you ever go to Europe and are looking for some Christian fellowship. I hope I can find a place, otherwise it could be a very lonely 3-4 months Christianwise.
Speaking of Europe I am not exactly sure which books I am taking with me yet. Bible is a default, but beyond that I am not sure. No RPG books, they are too bulky and too heavy (happy Lars?) and besides gettin' away from that for a little bit isn't nessecarily a bad thing, granting if I can find a game over there and have the time I'd be open to it. However I am trying to figure out which two paperbacks I am going to bring, and yes they are sci-fi (sorry Lars :D ). Right now I am leaning towards Startide Rising of which Brightness Reef/Infinity's Shore/Heaven's Reach are sequels too. Also thinking about A Civil Campaign by Lois MacMaster Bujold because it's frankly just hilarious (a 30 something hyper-active midget attempts to woo a woman admist his cousin the emperor's wedding). Really not sure tho cause I picked up most of the remaining Man-Kzin Wars novels when we were up in the Twin Cities from Uncle Hugo's and I should try and start reading them, ya know?
Anyhow this weekend I went down to visit Allison. It was a blast! Best weekend this summer by far. It was nice to be able to talk and hang out and basically just get out of town and spend time with my friend! Her family was really cool and thanks to them for housing me for a night! Madison was actually a lot nicer then I thought granting I hadn't been in very much of it til then. The only downside to the whole thing was now I realize how lonely it is here back at home. That is life though I guess, anyhow sleep time. My schedule is about to get a whole lot screwyier as we are going to start working midnight - 8am this Sunday. Dumb General Office people!
