Weekend round-up

Paul's at work, so I was able to finish up the painting I started yesterday. I was actually kind of grumpy last night because I had to stop mid-sky to take bro-in-law out for dinner. But I think it turned out okay. ::shrugs::

I'm not pagan, but I liked the symbolism of the spiral goddess. I think it represents rebirth. I'll have to ask Rachel to explain it to me.

And why did Paul and I have to take Matt out? Because he leveled my video game character when I had to work late. That was the deal: He'd level me; we'd take him to J. Alexander's over the weekend.

The non-disclosure agreement has been lifted on City of Villains, so I can now tell you guys how much it's rocked to be a beta tester. It started out pretty buggy, but the devs have done a great job of fixing it up before the scheduled Halloween launch. The beta servers have been running on a short nightly window (first two hours, then three, now four), so all of us seem to have sort of reworked our schedules for gameplay.

It's taken me a while to get used to playing the bad guy. Paul seemed to take to the idea rather quickly, but it's hard for me to be mean. We'll see if that hinders me when the game goes live.

Oh! I'd just like to publicly announce how much Smacky rocks!! I think it'll take me a couple of days to show you why he rocks ... but for now, you can just take my word for it.

Now ... off to wash my hands. I stuck my pinky in a big blob of yellow paint, and just realized there's still some squishing around under my fingernail. Ew.
