Has got to be my favourite part of this year’s Marva’s fools day
They were all kinda ‘yeah okay’ and THEN ‘welcome to chilis’ and ‘live laugh love’ I’m fucking screaming

Hello from my new (well, refurbished) Dell Inspiron 15R M5110! (Wow, Dell nomenclature has gotten complicated.)
My crappy old Latitude D620 was finally starting to die of old age, so I got this one instead (for less than the D620 cost me three years ago; after researching used computer prices I’m beginning to wonder if the brick-and-mortar used computer store I bought that one from ripped me off). It arrived Monday morning, and this morning I pretty much finished setting it up how I want it. It has six gigs of RAM and a Radeon HD 6480G graphics card, and do you know what that means?
Masssss Effff—
Wait, no, I have a final exam next week to study for, plus one and a half school projects and two articles to complete by the end of the month. I don’t have time to get into a new game. (No matter how tempting justice-turtle is making Flight Rising look.)
December 1st, maybe sooner if I manage to finish early:
Masssss Effffectttt
MASS EFFEEEEEEEEECT :D
Yay for being responsible! I’ll be here to cheer you on on December 1st! :D
(Lots of rambling advice under the cut because Mass Effect yay – no spoilers here though)
#(November 2014) #conversational aglets #(realised yesterday that I didn’t check my OPs) #Mass Effect #(I got a few missions in before wandering off and never really got back to it myself) #(I *did* end up getting into Flight Rising though) #(failed one of the projects because I suck at rock identification but still managed an A- overall) #(and A+ for the other course) #(but those grades are probably never going to matter because they don’t fit into an accounting degree) #(oh well‚ at least I learned stuff about rocks and computers and compensating for failures) #adventures in University Land
2. Returning severely underpriced items (the kind where someone left out a digit when putting in the price, stuff like that) on the Flight Rising player marketplace to their sellers, and seeing the seller gush with gratitude.
3. Finding new ways for my household to save money or otherwise run better. (A couple days ago I went looking through some more of those free-birthday-food aggregator websites I was talking about earlier, and I found a frozen-yogurt chain to add to my list of nearby restaurants with outright-free birthday gifts. It was like finding buried treasure, but with more dessert.)
4. Giving little kids stickers at work.
5. Exploring towns (or parts of towns) that I had previously only passed through, looking around inside all the little shops and taking pictures of the waterfalls and mapping the public Wi-Fi.

#also I forgot to mention in that earlier post that the Mary Brown’s fried-chicken chain offers a free chicken sandwich for your birthday #I found out too late to do it last year myself but early enough that Mom could do it #and she gave me hers because she’s diabetic and breading + hamburger bun would mess up her blood sugar #it was pretty good #food #adventures in human capitalism #and for that matter #adventures in dragon capitalism #meme #tales from the askbox #Flight Rising
#I’m sold where do I buy my reactors #(how much extra would a warranty cost) #April Fools #Flight Rising #oh look an original post #a moment of silence for the advertising revenue the devs gave up in order to bring us these masterpieces
I’m doing really well: it’s only been six and a half months since the last one, and I wasn’t even working towards this the whole time. (I also bought a lot of other familiars, a full vista collection, and a fully expanded lair.)
(Plus, this one actually cost 20k gems less than the last one, at 135kg. I already had 125k in gems, so I only had to sell two of my personal sprites to raise the remaining funds.)

#okay so I looked at my accounting spreadsheet #and it looks like other familiars + vistas + lair expansions = ~83.5kg #so yeah if I’d gone straight for a second KS familiar I could have gotten there a *lot* faster than 6.5 months #I’m…actually kind of worried about what I’ll do after I get the full set #I guess prepare for the possibility of another Boolean auction? #not sure it’ll be as fun without a clear goal in mind #Flight Rising #adventures in dragon capitalism #oh look an original post
I am so not ready, but on the other hand it’s nice to see a demonstration that it’s still possible for a Boolean to change hands every once in a while.
It’s been a year and a half since the last sale. If the next is a year and a half from now, I might very well be a contender for it by then.
(@sinesalvatorem, apparently when I was telling you about how borderline mythical Booleans are, I was speaking of the devil.)
