So I was in Champaign for awhile. It was good times. I had interviews with Microsoft and some subsidiary of Allstate that can only be found by the light of a red moon in the forests of Alcazar on the left side of the high mountains of Shenrala. No, really. I found out that I was actually interviewing for a specific project of a wholly owned subsidiary that is a contracting/consultancy group of Allstate. Yeah, I didn't fucking get it either.

The interviews went well. I did stuff. I didn't fart. I didn't intentionally insult anyone. I didn't, sadly, refer to Microsoft as the "Evil Empire" during the Microsoft interview. I really should have. Now I'm gonna have to get another interview to do that. Damnit.

Friday, I got hella drunk. Julie was in town with Laura and some other people. I got to Legends and almost died of happiness. I saw bottles of miller lite. Big bottles. 40 sized bottles. My eyes filled with tears and I gleefully exclaimed to my nearest friend: "I gotta get me several of those." Turns out it was only 24 ounces, not 40. Rats. However, I did call some girl dressed up in reverse lederhosen "Heidi" on my way back from the bar. She wouldn't get out of my way. So I called her Heidi, she moved, then she got all pissed off as I walked away. She should be expecting it after she wears Lederhosen.

Best moment of my life: I was walking into Legend's on friday. I'm about 100 feet away. AC Slater comes up to me. Dressed in the wrestling tunic thing and a really bad black curly wig, he says to me, "High fives!" I walk past him. He gets belligerent. He says, "What, no high fives?" I say, "No. You're dirty." And continue walking. I don't think I've ever been that mean in all my life. It felt pretty good.

Saturday was super quiet. Couple of beers. Lots and lots of SSX 3. Awesome game. I'm an awsome snowboarder now. I can seriously "thrash" the slopes. And I watched Mandy play Lacrosse. Go U of I Lacrosse for kicking ass.

This week in Anime Viewing: Saw the first Foolie Coolie. Amazing. The art, the dialogue, the siliness. This is an amazing show. Yes, I know its about 6 months old or so. Its still awesome. I also saw the Ruroni Kenshin Ovas. These are prequel things. They explain Kenshin's Past and how he becomes the Batosi. Oh, it also tells you where the scar comes from. I highly suggest them.

So today, I'm working on my "Junk Drawer". Its my drawer I've been tossing stuff into for years. Its a little frightening. I just found a film tube filled with teeth. Presumably my teeth, but I'm not sure. I closed it rather quickly.

Tonight, I hope, will be more Evangelion, Halo and then sleep. I have another interview tomorrow. W00t!!
