Greetings from Port Llast (and the surrounding areas)! So much has been going on since my last update. For one thing, I’m now an 11th level druid which means summoning dire tigers (dire wolf -> dire spider -> dire bear -> dire tiger). How cool is that? Desther and Fentick are [...]

2 Fucking Idiots

Nov 27, 03

I finally made it out of Neverwinter, but not how I would have liked. Here is how things went down: I found all the creatures for Aribeth so that a cure could be made for the Wailing Death (boo-hoo-hoo – if you ask me, those people should rot), having already run errands for half [...]

1 New York Thanksgiving 2003

Nov 27, 03

Every year I go to New York City to spend Turkey Day with Nica (we even had turkey this year). We usually dork around, drink, watch Buffy, and paint our nails, and this year was no exception (though with more My So Called Life than usual). Nica also caught a rat on a [...]

Hi!
My name is Dalmona Uer, a half-elf from the city of Neverwinter. I do a lot of traveling, and pnts thought maybe I should keep logs of my travels on this site. So here I am, coming to you with my first installment of Dalmona’s Travels. Let’s see… a little more [...]

3 I Hate Animal Crossing

Nov 14, 03

Animal Crossing and I are officially over. This game underlines why, once again, reality based games don’t work (The Sims being an exception to the rule). I hated There because I could only buy Nike clothing. Let me rephrase, women’s Nike clothing. Animal Crossing works within a framework that is too [...]

My bitch of a firewall (well, the old firewall) is now running menuet os. The os *fits on a floppy disc*, and in fact runs off the floppy disc. I’m not shitting you. It’s pretty amazing. Now I just need to learn assembly.
Here are a few specs on the box:

0 Shut Up and Play

Oct 17, 03

This is and article that I wrote last year for a now defunct gaming magazine addressing violence and video games. It needed a home, so here it is.
Shut Up and Play
The increasing popularity of video games bestows upon them the burden of being a scapegoat for all the Dumb Things that people do. Historically books, [...]

1 I’m Losing It All

Sep 29, 03

In yet another casualty, I have lost Xiana, my heroine from Dungeon Siege. Obviously I did not do a thorough backup the last time I reinstalled my system, something that was made apparent to me this evening as I excitedly loaded DS only to find her nowhere. Xiana represents at least 60 hours [...]

3 Play Dead

Sep 29, 03

I’ve decided to add a “photographs” category, so there may be a sudden influx of pictures in the next couple days as I organize the photos I like and want to keep track of. Without further ado, here are a few corpse photos that I took about a month ago when I was really [...]
