I think I'm going to take Friday off the job hunt and interviewing. Two a day for three days, with bad eating and no exercise is taking its toll.

Also, gaming under Linux doesn't go near as well as gaming under Windows. But then that's why I dual boot....

Finally...went to a fiction reading meeting thing yesterday and one of the stories got me thinking about those Fascist World dreams I have. I really need to keep a dream journal again.

Wow - what a terrible interview...on the interviewers part. You shouldn't need to EMail me asking for my phone number, and begin the interview with "Uh....I just had a brain fart."

Last night I played some Street Fighter 4 at the arcade. SF4 is the first SF game where I played the console versions FIRST, then the arcade versions...so I was soundly trounced despite being pretty good on the 3DS. It got me thinking about the version I bought several years ago.

I installed Steam and downloaded some of the games available in Linux for it (Sadly, not SF4). It didn't go very well. 1 to 2 FPS on Half Life on what was originally built as a gaming machine...so I moved over to Windows and installed HAlf LIfe there. Boom 60+FPS.

Holy cow - this system plays SF4. It plays it well.

Might be time to retire the 3DS version. ;)

SF4 on the PC is a very different rythm than SF4 on the 3DS. I do miss the 3D effect (especially on the barrell stage), but the fully animated backgrounds are REALLY nice. Wii U, please?

For that matter, howzabout some Super SF2 Turbo HD Remix?

You know...the pics I've seen for the 50th Anniversary have David Tennant and Billie Piper, so, Rose and 10th Doctor. What if it's not the actual 10th Doctor though? Maybe the alternate universe one made from him and Donna?

Dealing with some bad news coming from Pennsylvania. May post about it after it sinks in, and/or is dealt with.

Dean's family could use your thoughts right about now.
