School starts on the seventh. Woe is me! I haven’t finished my summer reading yet. David Copperfield, if anyone’s interested. Maybe I’ll go find a Cliff’s Notes somewhere…
In other news, the first football game of the season (high school, that is) was Friday. Pretty fun. I went with my sister and talked with a few friends about whatnot. We won, which was surprising. Maybe we’ll have a good team this year. Burlington-Edison hasn’t won the state championship since 1987, I believe. But we went to state two years back and held our own. I hope this year is the same.
To all who have me on Star Trek simms: I’m sorry if I haven’t posted that much. With school starting in less than three days, I’m a bit swamped. I hope to be back at normal posting levels soon, once things settle down and I don’t have to worry about this stupid summer reading. Gar.
A few days ago I went to the local Bargains Galore and bought Deus Ex: Invisible War for five bucks. I almost felt like I was robbing the nice little old lady behind the counter. However, I found out that my computer doesn’t like Deus Ex. The Eidos tech support guy said it was my soundcard (of all things), so my dad went out and bought me a new one at Office Max (not quite the one I wanted, but pretty much the same), but the game is still being annoying. I know it’s not the game (looks as good as new), so it means that my computer is at fault. Probably the video card. That video card has a pretty poor track record. But I don’t have the $200 to get a new (good) one, so here I am, stuck playing Deus Ex and having it freeze on me every five minutes for no apparent reason.
Sometimes I wonder if the computer gods hate me.
