Well... This time no DSL means no homework... Well, no finished homework at least...

I sat down to do my homework yesterday and realized that for my Calc III I needed a 3D graphing package. Well, I don't have one, but I could probably download from the internet. If I had DSL that is. But I don't. So now I'm stuck going to the lab so I can do my math homework. I think it's due Thursday, but I've never had a good memory for homework due dates. Normally I just do it before the next class session, and if it's clear I don't know everything required to do it, I put it down and wait for the lecture that covers the section. It can't be due before the teacher tells us how to do it, can it?

In any case, the new DSL modem is due in today. I can't wait to get home and put poor Motoko back on the internet where she belongs. Not that that's gonna happen anytime until like 8:00 PM when I get home. And that's assuming the delivery guy doesn't expect a signiture for it, in which case I may not get it until Tuesday or even Wednsday. We'll see.

Also, Oniakki wasn't here on Friday, probably because Spoony went to his dads and couldn't give him a ride, I wasn't on AIM, and he probably doesn't have my phone number. I should give that to him... Oh well. Vashuu did make it for once, and without DSL, it seemed to be a convinient time to run an adventure, so we did. It was a two part adventure, and I DMed. I tried to make a difficault adventure because we run a high power campaign and always chew straight through the bad guys. So I put them up against a CR+2 boss made the same way their characters where... Bad idea... The only guy who could hit the boss was waxed in just a few seconds, the remaining fighters couldn't even reach him, and ended up fleeing. Now all the chars where on the spot ones, so the fact that there was no gold or XP wasn't a big deal. And the guys who died really don't have to worry, I mean they'll just make another on the spot char next time. But as DM I shouldn't be killing off my party... It tends to make the game un-interesting. If I kill 2 and 2 kill the boss, that's ok, but it shouldn't be wax 2, 2 flee for their lives... II guess next time it will be a CR+1 char instead.

TTFN! Ta ta for now!

Mood: Excited and worried.
