Last night I started working on my final speech exam and it was lame and boring. I also deleted my KoC account, because KoC sucks and is dumb. Then Fizz and I played his Doom levels until about 2 in the AM. Then I went to sleep.
I had cool dreams.
I was with some people at a city park. There was this fenced in tennis court with some big college kids in it (in my dream we seemed to be younger, like maybe in middle school). For some reason, we were throwing tennis balls re baseballs at the fence, and they were all doing tricks that made it look like they were pulling balls out of the air. Eventuallu I think they got sick of us throwing stuff at them and came after us. But then we acted as if they were the ones being jerks and I guess we got into a fight and we were running away from them and either us or them had a bat and were trying to hit people with it. This one guy of them was named "Lexus" and I thought he was a pretty cool guy, and I was trying to get him to stop being mad at me.
As we ran away from these guys, I looked at map of the city, with streets and stuff. It seemed that in this game, you could move anywhere in the city instantly (kind of like Andy's Space Civ game). I went to this place that was near a lake and then zoomed in, and when I got close to the ground it turned into blocks that were drawn in the style of...
+-----+ | top |\ | | + +-----+ | \ side\| +-----+
which I did not really like.
There were a lot of people hanging around that area trying to sell stuff. I was thinking about going into a nearby house. I might have been looking for Fizz or Andy or someone.
Instead of the dorms, there was a highschool at this end of Greenview. Not one that I went to, but I was there for some reason, and now I was walking away. Around the corner came a few of these gigantic busses.

They were *huge*.
Out in front, some of them had a separate little red cabin for the driver. I guessed that was so that he wouldn't have to deal with all those routy kids. Or maybe if the rest of the thing crashed he'd still be protected. or something. Anyway, I was trying to stay out of the way as these things as they came around the corner.
I was wondering what kind of mess there would be if one of these things crashed. So sure enough, one of them crashed out by a highway somewhere. There were about 14 doors that had to be opened just at one end to let everyone out.
I had once upon a time managed to get an editor for Super Mario Brothers 1 and 3. I had been working on making a game with it, and now came back to it and started doing stuff again. I also was working on making a Mulker mix CD. It had extra tracks between the Mulkers to sort of tie them together, and sounded pretty good.
Today I got to demo TE3D. It was very stressful. When I tried to start it up it said "invalid opcode 0x0 at 0x0". Turned out it wasn't opening the data files. Turned out that the command line parameters on the machines I was using had an extra space in them. So I took out the command line-specified data directory and re-hard-coded "data" into it, and then it worked. But then when you exited the dungeon it flashed boobs at you. I think Andy was playing a joke on me, though I don't know how he figured out how to add images...
On the way back from EE I jammed my toe into the sidewalk and tore off a big chunk of skin and it bled a lot. As I type this (1:00 tomorrow morning - I have my final Biology ab exam in 9 hours) the tissue underneath where the skin used to be has swollen up and now seems to be forming this weird, fleshy scab that covers part of my toenail. That toe has taken so much crap from me lately...
You can tell I'm studying biology because I keep coming across interesting articles about processor speed.
