Portal:Prelude is OUT!

I'm posting, and I'm Still Alive.

I've been anticipating this mod for all of one week, and it's finally out! Shame you can only get it off FilePlanet. I've been waiting in line for a while now, and I've only moved ten places.

Expect a review or something once I get it downloaded.

Darn. (Gmod)

Garry's Mod has a virus. I've been playing Team Fortress 2 lately, but found myself wanting to go online with GMod today. I usually read the latest posts in some forums on Facepunch, so at least I found out about it before I could get it. There's an antidote out, but I'm going to wait for Garry to update it before I go online again.

Weird

You know, for having not posted for a month, my hit counter sure is high. I guess google seems to like me. Well, I am on the first page for "spore crash", "lire...fail" and "intel robot battle", which must be helping a lot.

What Ate My Time? (Part 2)

Sorry it's late; I've had a busy week, occasionally without power/internet.

The second time-waster I've been hooked on recently is Garry's Mod. If you haven't used it before, you need to get it and any Source game. In Garry's Mod, you can access props, items and characters from any Source game, and use a set of tools on them in an environment. It doesn't sound like anything when I explain it, but it really is awesome. By itself, it's only a $10 purchase, so I really had no reason not to buy it. Now I only have to buy the rest of The Orange Box; I only have Portal.

In other news, my laptop doesn't seem to want to let me click in a certain area of my screen. I just installed Vista SP1: could this be the source of my problem?

What Ate My Time? (Part 1)

I've been wasting my time on two things. Actually, my time spent on this isn't quite wasted. I make money doing it, even if I only make $0.03 a minute. It's Amazon Mechanical Turk. If you haven't used it before, you should go check it out. It's great if you have a lot of internet-based free time. As I write this, I have over $6! That's almost enough to buy two packs of Altoids, if only I could eat them. I also could buy a VHS tape, which could actually be useful. And this is just from 3 to 4 hours of my free time. Imagine what I could buy after a month!
