Protest

Its interesting to watch governments rise and fall and noticably in the past couple years relatively peaceful revolutions. Now a similiar event seem to be unfolding again in Myanmar (Burma) although it remains to be seen if it will survive government crackdowns. My prayers go out to these monks and those marching with (and supporting) them.

September Rolls Down

Wow, time is flying it feels like. Another month has rolled past. I've been in the house for over 4 months. It seems so long ago that I came in here on a cold rainy May evening and entered this place, empty and deserted. Now it's home in almost every sense of the word (home in La Crosse still retains its homeness as well). Still need to work on decorating the walls a little bit methinks. And sort/file papers. Fall is coming and soon winter will be rolling around. I'm excited. Even if it means snow removal at 6 AM before work.

Dogs, Gutters, and Heroes

So I have concluded that I really dislike dogs primarily on the grounds that their owners seem to think that they don't need to climb up the waste their pets leave on my yard. Bah, I am a bigger supporter of civic virtues of late.
On a side note, my gutters seems to collect a lot of leaves. A lot. At least I know where all the leaves of my front tree are going for the winter!

And finally: Heroes is beginning again, yayayay!

Yea, Soundtracks

Yay, Transformers: The Score is coming out Oct. 9th. I really enjoyed the score so I can't wait.

Realmslore

Well got a bunch of the Forgotten Realms books today. Champion of Ruin, Champions of Valor, Power of Faerun, Mysteries of the Moonsea, Cormyr: The Tearing of the Weave, and Shadowdale: The Scouring of the Land. Carl would say I need to run a Forgotten Realms game now and he's probably right considering I own most of the books. Really need to read them and take into the account the time shift. The books advance the timeline very slowly but I've gotten them out of order so some events that are "current" in one book aren't anymore. It looks like that the last book for Forgotten Realms Anauroch: The Sundering of the World will set up the transition to 4th Ed.

Anyhow I am book geeking out (is that a real term?) so that's it for now.

Fall Comes

So I got the first season of Heroes on Thursday and have been plugging away at it. Maybe not quite as good the second time around cause I know most of the secrets but I do enjoy watching to catch things alluded too.

Also snagging up the rest of the Forgotten Realms corebooks. More on that as they roll in.

Hmm, that's all I got right now. Sorry, it's kinda short, I don't feel extremely chatty :/

Enter September

Well the place finally has rain gutters around it, the efforts of the Labor Day weekend. Of course now I need it to rain which hasn't quite happened yet.
Filteau is here for a week so it's a little strange as I have a roommate for the first time here at the place. Different actually having someone around but not bad. It's to have someone to chat with.

Anyhow, that's it for now.
