Just heard the news. For someone that I've never met in person and only interacted with online I feel that he made such a huge impact on my life. I'm in tears.
What can I say about quadz. I feel like he was my biggest cheerleader and mentor. My internet dad. He genuinely cared about me and my well being. I spent all my waking teenage years playing Quake 2. I grew up playing this game and with this community.
He was kind, generous, and always left me feeling glad I called or messaged him that day.
Something he said to me once and has always stuck with me after another tastyspleen forum dispute (lol): "Illegitimi non carborundum" (don't let the bastards grind you down )
I'm no longer active on Quake 2 but I was for a long time. Mirc and the quake 2 servers were my home. I was so lonely and really struggling to find myself back then in the good old Quake 2 days. It was many years ago since I spoke to him and told him how I was doing. I hope he knows what a great impact he made on my life.
I have been looking for shows that are multi-tasking friendly since I have a ton of crochet projects to complete. I'm going through Parks & Recreation withdrawal at the moment... I just finished rewatching it and no other show can really replace it. If you all hsve any suggestions let me know. I tried to watch Downton Abbey (on Amazon prime) which is also a rewatch. I haven't watched Buffy in awhile so I was considering watching that as well as Fantastic Beasts and where to find them on HBO in preparation for part 2.
I thought that Venom was pretty good. I also enjoyed Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I know, I'm behind on the times. Christopher Robin was cute and I enjoyed it.
They're called "hong bao" , which are nice. Usually given for Chinese New Year. I don't get those anymore now that I have a job. sad times. I'm technically still "single" and unmarried though. Which means I should still get these, right?
I didn't have much of a Christmas unfortunately, but it was OK, I stayed home and played a lot of video games hanging out with my internet buddies.
I got gifted a lot of Steam gifts, and gifted out a lot of games, what with it being the holidays and Steam sale that was going on.
My parents got my a Chilis gift card. They have no idea I'm using it to pay for getting my maragaritas there. ehehe.
Participated in some gift exchanges, hauled back wine, a calender, and tea. love.
Hung out with co-workers. had hot pot. played video games & League of Legends and made a hell of a breakfast for myself new year's day. chocolate chip pancakes, blueberry muffins, and eggs. at 4 PM. epic.
