Driving

I'm seriously contemplating putting a video camera in my car and recording my drive home. You missed so much this past week, not the least of which was a somewhat in-depth review of the first 27 minutes of the latest Taylor Swift album.

I flashed the radio on my phone and thought about that on the way home. It was a bit heart-stopping for a bit when it acted like a boot loop was imminent, but now I have a happy phone with a newer radio firmware and somewhat quicker data speeds.

The Rally is this weekend. I am hoping that it will be as incredible as I want it to be. It feels strange to have been there since the beginning, watching the opening post on Reddit become this massive thing that it really, truly happening. And I helped (you're welcome to help as well).

The Machine of Death is incredible. I can't stop reading it much to the detriment of my bedtimes.

Fallout: New Vegas has been a mixed bag. It is extremely crashy. It is also extremely enjoyable. I picked up an HD6870 with the intent of running it at a higher resolution than the 1200x800 my 8800GTS could handle. It's now drastically CPU limited at 1680x1050. It'd be nice if my Q6600 would let me overclock some, but it, too, has been extremely crashy lately, so it stays at a paltry 2.4GHz. A new computer is not in the cards for some time, sadly. I should put a new case on that list, though, since the 6870 barely fits in my smallish case. When I say barely, I mean that there is less than 1cm

I'm contemplating taking another crack at NaNoWriMo. I'm thinking it may help me get back into the spirit of writing, but who knows. I don't really have an idea for a story.
