Simple Pleasures.

[Galaxy Hunter]

Finding -and buying- a copy of Ace Combat 2 at a local game store.

Woot! Now all I need is Air Combat and Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere and I'll have all of the main Console ones. (And after that I'll need to get a PSP to get Ace Combat X and Ace Combat Xi. By the way, does anyone know if the PlayStation 1 or 2 has region-locking? Because if I can manage it I'm going to get a copy of the Japanese Edition of Ace Combat 3, because according to online reviews they butchered the story in the English version.

I know PS2 did have it, because a friend of mine had his modded to get around it. It also enabled him to burn his own copies with the files.

I heard that my boss thinks I'm autistic. I find that amusing, mostly because Thursday is my last day.

If you don't mind my asking, why does your boss think that?

Because a large portion of people assume all introverts have autism.

I am the queen of social awkwardness. Ngau says that my demeanor and body language are non-standard, whatever that means. I am reserved and abrupt around people I don't know well, lack the talent for content-free social pleasantries, and do not participate in water cooler gossip. My boss has also not liked me since I first got here, so I have stayed well away from her for the last year and a half, which is usually easy enough since I work on a different floor. I answer her questions briefly and accurately, but volunteer no more information than requested. Also, since my Chinese still kind of sucks, I am even quieter and more awkward here than I am normally. I have actually considered whether or not I might have Aspergers, but I don't meet the criteria. I understand sarcasm and metaphor entirely too well, lack obsessive interests and have no rigid habits. For what it's worth, my boss is a clinical psychologist, but she's also an awful human being. When giving a talk about disability, she brought up her son's dyslexia and talked about how hard it was for her, as an educated and respectable person, to endure the shame of having her son's teachers accuse her of not doing enough to help him.

But actually, it ended up working in my favour. Out of all the TAs, the boss badgered me the least. I reckon I wasn't even seen as worth the trouble of giving a hard time. She only bothers people who she thinks she can extract some benefit out of. This allowed me to get on with my work instead of getting sucked into Round 18 of Bureaucratic Turf Warfare.

A four day weekend, now that is a simple pleasure!

Oh well, I'll just have to wait until the Fan Translation project of AC 3 is done, then find a way to burn it and play it...

On the portal site a while back there was a free download of the in game music. I honestly didn't think 'Want You Gone' was part of it until it came on my iphone while I was driving alone. That's two pleasures in one.

Listening to Social Distortion, Bad Religion, and Frank Turner all day on repeat. Also, Akon started toady

Dad ordered an Alaskan King Crab. A whole one. We got to eat it yesterday and it was delicious.

What about the Head of Vecna?

I am hoping they would be smart enough to not fall for that one.
