Because I can

It occured to me about 5 minutes ago that I had never spat out coffee (or indeed, any liquid) upon the hearing of shocking news, nor had I recieved bonus points for doing so into the face of someone else in the proximity. The potential for slapstick is seriously wasted in me.

So what has the chard been up to? The lamentations of having everyone haul their sorry asses back to universities of choice have obviously been much on my mind. Heck, even Sarah is in Oxford tonight, so I really must be doing something wrong, but eh. To be fair it would have been less anticlimatic a farewell if... well, if there'd actually been much of one. Not to say that there weren't any opportunities for a bittersweet waving off, there were plenty. Almost every day I would get a text saying "Hey, tonight?", or " and tomorrow?", to the point where I (as of writing) have a template in my phone that simply says "Sorry, busy, have a good one".Or words to that effect.

Not that I'm complaining about having work or rehearsals. (I knew 2 months ago that the 2 weeks before show are the most hectic, with people running about half dressed, Stage Managers panicking that the books are wher the actors know they are and moving them to where she thinks they should be (ASM remaining stoically violent about the whole thing), costume eagle telling me that braces were worn with the intention on making the wearer look oh-so-fucking-stupid (to which everyone else in the room disagrees... even those alive then) and finally the general moment when tech turns on the lights for the first time and you think you hear dead relatives beckoning you into the blinding lights while the whole hall becomes an oven. And work is always fun. Well, I say fun. It's as fun as I make it. God bless my imagination! Longest parenthesis ever! Totally misused to! Screw you Grammar Nazis and up your's Apostrophe KKK!) It's just that people's scheduling hasn't really been helpful to seeing all the people I've been without for a good few months. For example:

Dave J: 5 occasions
Dauve: 4 occasions
Helen: 3 occasions
Chris C: 2 occasions!

Ok so Chris isn't at uni, but ya get me. Ah well, roll on Ubar Summ0rz the 2cnd

Iiiiiiiiiiin other news; I, Chard, Trainer number 45202 (yes, I have that memorised) at 2.37am on the 21st April 2007 after a game time of 37 hours, 31 minutes and 4 seconds, defeated Wallace to become the new Hoenn Region Pokémon League Champion. Aiding me in this endeavour against the Elite 4 and the Champion were my loyal team:

1. Rayquaza, National Pokédex Number 384, Level 71
2. Blaziken, Nat.Dex No 257, Lv. 49
3. Azumarill, Nat.Dex No 184, Lv. 31
4. Aggron, Nat.Dex No 306, Lv. 42
5. Manectric, Nat.Dex No 310, Lv 43
6. Gardevoir, Nat. Dex No 282, Lv. 36

All performed admirably; the battles were tough, with each opponent inching still closer to my destruction (cos DAMN is Drake's Salamence fast...) but being the cocky arse I am I wasn't too worried, and now Hoenn is open to me to rule as I choose. Though I did just go back and take down Wallace again, just to really rub his face in it. And level up my Beldum. But hey.
Damn I'm a nerd.

Ah well, that's my change from a $10 spent on $9.98 worth of goods. I'll let you get back on with life and I'll get back to reading the PvP archives. Had a really dull day..
But at least I now have Final Fantasy III and Pokémon Diamond preordered. Let the good times roll.

Oh and, another thing. "I am a human Dalek." What. The. Fuck?! A line on par with "No... it's because I'm so in love with you" and "Well from my point of view the Jedi are evil!". I think I'm having acid reflux just thinking of it...
