You are the Potter, I am the Clay.
Mold me and make me, this is what I pray.

Convos of the Day
D2: Okay, after this fight we can go eat at Pizza Inn.
Mike: You know I can save anytime during this fight, right?
D2: What?
Mike: Yeah, it's Fire Emblem.
Old lady: Hey, could you park in the visitors parking next time?
D2: Sure...
Old lady: That's because we pay the rent around here.
D2: Yes, ma'am.
Old lady: The visitors parking is in the back over there.
D2: Alright.
Old lady: Make sure you park there next time because the people who live here should be able to park close to their apartment.
D2: Okay, ma'am.
Old lady: Thanks, and remember to park in the visitor parking!
D2: I will. Have a Happy New Year!
Mike: God, that old lady was annoying.
Andy: You know, lady, WE HEARD YOU THE FIRST TIME!
D2: It's okay, guys, she was within her right to complain.
Mike: But did she really have to repeat herself so many times?
D2: Well, you know, you have to repeat something at least three times to make it stick.
Andy: But we all heard her the first time!
Mike: Yeah, you should only tell me something one time per instance of wrongdoing. If I do something wrong the second time, you can tell me twice. But for each time after that, I will be sure to pay you back by purposely doing what annoyed you.
D2: Didn't Jesus say to turn the other cheek?
Andy: Maybe. But I still would have yelled I HEARD YOU just to make the point.
D2: Heh, now we see the difference between the white mage and the black mage. And the thief for that matter.
Mike: I'm a rogue, not a thief.
D2: So we should totally decide what pizzas to eat.
Mike: Well, I like pepperoni and sausage.
Andy: Pepperoni.
D2: I like pepperoni and sausage. so let's do half and half one large and full pepperoni on the other.
Andy: Sounds like a good plan.
D2: Now we have to decide on what crust we want. We have three choices: Thin crust, New York style, or Original Italian.
Mike: Well then, it's already decided. We only have two choices.
D2: Okay, so I like thin crust...
Mike: No, sir, that is not a choice.
Andy: Yeah, I usually go for quantity rather than quality.
D2: But thin crust tastes better!
Andy: But you're basically giving the pizza place large pizza money for medium pizza quantity.
Mike: Yeah, I go for the money-to-quantity ratio.
D2: Funny, I go for the money-to-taste ratio.
Waitress: Sorry, we're out of Original Italian Crust tonight.
D2: Ha ha! Then we're getting one thin crust and one New York.
Mike: Actually, no. We're getting...
D2: Let's Rochambeau for it!
Andy: What?!?
Mike: How about we just play Rock, Paper, Scissors?
D2: Fine. On three. One, two, three!
[D2 goes for scissors. Mike goes for paper. Scissors cut paper.]
D2: Looks like we're going to get one thin crust and one New York. Make the thin crust full pepperoni and the New York half and half.
Andy: Awwwww...
D2: On second thought, as punishment, make the thin crust half and half and the New York Style full pepperoni.
Mike: Awwwww...
D2: So next week the white mage will cook something Mike can actually eat...hamburgers.
Mike: Yay!
D2: You know how to make burgers, right Mike?
Mike: Um, no. You don't want me in the kitchen.
D2: But you take the risk of your kitchen burning down everytime you let me cook.
Mike: My roommates take the risk of our kitchen burning down just by letting me live in the apartment.
Andy: Mashed potatoes and fried potatoes?
Mike: Just go for fried potatoes.
D2: But I thought you liked mashed potatoes. Enough to help make them.
Mike: Naw, fried potatoes are just fine.
D2: Well, Andy, do you want to make mashed potatoes?
Andy: You realize what he just did right? Mike got out of making mashed potatoes.
Mike: But I don't like eating...
D2: You're not the one cooking, so you don't get a choice.
Andy: That's how it works!
Aaron: I heard you guys went to Pizza Inn. You could have invited me, too.
Mike: And the problem is?
Aaron: Never mind, my fault.
Andy: I hate Lord of the Rings RISK.
D2: Oh man, sorry, I fell asleep.
Andy: It's too luck based on the die rolls.
D2: But...I thought you guys controlled all of Mordor.
Andy: We did.

Link of the Day
Million Dollar Home Page. Lucky Andy told me a story about a poor college boy who decided to sell pixels for money. He got his friends and family to buy some. Then he got on the news. Companies knew curious people would come see it and check out all the pretty pixels. Sweet advertising. Kind of hypnotic advertising, really.
Enough to make that poor college boy a millionaire.

People sleep naked?!?
Okay, this is apparently a more common phenomenon than I thought. Out of the sixteen LJ friends who filled out this survey, more than half say they would prefer sleeping naked. I don't know, I think I'd wear clothes when I go to sleep just for that .00001% chance that an emergency happens. When it does happen, I won't have to scramble to find something to wear.
How are you feeling?
The first day of the year is like any other day. True or false?
