Short bits from my life

1: Hanging over my desk, unfortunately in B&W.
2: I've mentioned something to this effect a few times in the past week, but
moonlightalice insisted I post it: Toy Story has more in common with The Stranger than one would assume.
3: The interview is more a formality than anything else, but I'm freaking anyway. Please excuse any edginess, paranoia, or freakitude I may display between now and the 9th.
4: I'm enjoying 4e. No, it's not WoW, but yes, it's remarkably easy to build WoW-boss-like encounters in it. This is a major plus, ramping up the epicosity options massively. (For example: Gruul is easy to write up and Malchezaar takes a few seconds.) This, and "tanking" abilities (marks) are basically all that make it WoW-y, and I think those are both plusses, as the corollary to the common complaint that casters obsoleted other classes in e<4 was that the only move for any smart enemy was to get in the caster's face.
5: My brother and uncle recommended them many times, and now I know myself: Merrells are REALLY comfy. I heartily endorse them.

3. Good luck!
4. Combat STILL takes too long. Hopefully it'll speed up as we get used to the abilities.
5. Too bad their women's shoes only come in medium width. I'll never get to confirm this.
