Well here it is my first official blog in the WARP contest. I was doing some thinking earlier and made the decision that at least once a week I will try to throw in a nice little fantasy story. This story takes place in the same world and mostly the same time as my Dungeons and Dragons campaign that I am running right now so some of you may recognize some things in the stories. There is however going to be a twist on the story telling, you see most stories are told from the direct point of view of the heroes, well this story will be told from the perspectives of the villains. There may be times when the villains come across the party of adventurers that my campaign follows which will more than likely be quite entertaining.
Wow I’ve had a busy weekend of tech. It all started Friday when I proceeded to transfer and get rid of all the information, files, pictures, and videos from my home desktop computer because we are planning on selling it in our garage sale. I was very surprised with how much data was on it. The worst part of it was the fact that the best thing I had available to me was a used one gigabyte flash drive. So this entire process took me around eight hours or so to accomplish. Then on Saturday I spent the first half of the day tearing down the computer which was made more difficult by the fact that I had used zip ties to tie the cables together and tie the cables to the desk itself, all to eliminate everyone’s favorite thing cable spaghetti. Then once I finally got that computer taken apart I had to setup the newer computer that we acquired from my sister, Love You Laziest Overachiever. So I cleared the space, cleaned up the desk a little and proceeded to put together the computer. However, when I got to the router I struck trouble. The software for the router could not find the Internet. So after going a few rounds of the unplug the router and modem game I made a call to the tech support of the company that made the router. After finally getting a human and spending about twenty minutes spelling and respelling my name and e-mail address the lady eventually tells me that since my warranty is expired I must pay them money in order to get any help. So this left me right back to square one with no wifi Internet access, I eventually said screw it and gave up for the night. Which leads me to Sunday afternoon, I kept trying to figure out what the problem was until I eventually had a breakthrough. Well after making that proud accomplishment I decided to try my luck at printer sharing and file sharing which is not an easy task when one computer is running XP and the other one is running on Vista. Well I slew that dragon and called it a night and jumped in the pool.
A few days ago my previous blog caused a bit of a stir. I would just like to apologize to anyone who may have thought I was angry at them since this was not the case. The true purpose of that blog was to get across the point that if we are to become a strong community we need to learn how to better communicate with each other. This was not just in reference to the major thing but for little things as well like where and when a ritual is supposed to be and other small various things. Sorry for any confusion.
As for my favorite and many other people’s favorite part, the Random Bachelor Dare Card, I’ve decided to take a vote. If you think I should continue this feature even though some of the cards are a little on the PG-13 to R rated side. Please leave a comment and let me know, otherwise I will not put in this feature.
678 words. Sorry it’s a little longer than it should be but I had a lot to say.
