Got into a fight with George Washington...big mistake

-- Civ 5 has totally sucked away my life. I played with Alan on Thursday and I was up until 1am, then did the same thing Saturday night with Tim - there really is no such thing as a "quick" game, especially once you get lots of units on the board. I tried to play solo today but rolled India as my Civ and ended up with the Indians, Russians, and Americans on my continent and they ALL declared war on me at the same time. :\ Not going to go back to that save any time soon.

-- Watched the new episode of Community and loved it! I'm so happy they sort of got rid of the relationship stuff that was in the finale. I know I had a panic attack when that last episode aired and what it meant for where the show was going. But they handled it well. Also, all the jabs at 'Sh*t my Dad Says' had me LOL'ing. Betty White was cute but I'm happy it was just for an episode. And Senior Chang, I'm so HAPPY you're still with the show.

-- Watched 30 Rock too, and all of the Matt Damon scenes had me laughing. And Jack flirting with James ("Not Jim, not Jimmy - James") had me cracking up. "She's your pube shirt" is just too good of a line to let go.

-- Watched Running Wilde in it's entirety today and it was okay. Not sure how it's going to get beyond the initial episode. Cute idea though. Raising Hope was funnier...now what day of the week were those on??? I need to set up the DVR. Must have been Tuesday, right?

-- Amazing Race started up again tonight! I didn't even know until Becky IM'd me looking for me (we live chat during the show). I'm calling the birth-mom/daughter team "Team Awkward". I like "Team Glee" but those boys are too nice and are going to fall behind if they keep stopping to to check on everyone. The two Home Shopping girls crack me up because the one is a total spazz. Also the little southern girl, Mallory, she's too cute. We're already rooting against the "newly dating" couple because she is WAY too good for him. We just hope she realizes it. The tattooed couple scare me, they are just very dumb.

-- I'm addicted to GetGlue. Got my stickers in the mail this week, trying to decide what to stick them too. If it wasn't on my iPhone, I probably wouldn't use it as much but the face that I can quickly "check in" my activity amuses me.

Anyway, I should probably get to bed. Going to the AskUsNow! interview tomorrow which is in Towson, so that's at least an hour drive IF I don't get lost...so I'm thinking I'll give myself 90 minutes to get there and just bring a book to kill the time. I'm hoping that I can convince them that I could pick up Drupal pretty quick since that was the only thing I had no experience with on the application - but I've heard of it and have a very general idea about what it is.

Toodles!

Good luck for the interview!! (& also conquering many, many varied civilizations!)

Told Dad about my smallpox joke and he laughed. XD He said that I should tell you not to rule out biological warfare. haha.

Haven't made it far enough to unlock biological warfare haha. It would be horrible if it was an option and the US Civ has a special ability to "Give Blankets" HAHAHA

Hooray! Hope the interview goes well today!!

I kind of miss The Amazing Race. I wish CBS could commit to putting it on at a regularly scheduled time instead of "whenever the football game and 60 Minutes end." It's too much of a nightmare to try and schedule it. :/

And hee! Matt Damon was awesome on 30 Rock. He seems like he has such a good sense of humor.

I hate that AR always has to compete with football. What's more annoying is that I have to have 60 minutes on my screen for...well, 60 minutes while I wait for AR time! But I mute it and then wait with my laptop so I'm ready to live chat.

AR is the only show I watch in real time because of the live chat, everything else I record haha.
