Hung out at Deacon and Erika’s place tonight. Enjoyed Kylie’s unwavering identification of my various tattoos. Kylie enjoyed my company until she peed on the floor, at which point she was sent to bed with a bowl of cheesy goldfish.

Played Army of Two and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 with Deacon. The modern CoD games just aren’t my thing, but I can definitely appreciate the quality of the graphics and the gameplay.

Erika joined us for a three-player co-op game of Splosion Man. Hectic, ’splodey fun was had, talkings were done, and cake was readily acquired.

Off to bed for me, in the hopes that work will go easy on me tomorrow. Excitement abounds for the weekend and the promise of long sleeps therein.

Also, lolcats:

I tried to jailbreak my iPhone yesterday. After the stories I’d heard, wherein the iPhone lights on fire, erases everything, gives you a severe frowning-upon, and is otherwise made to be generally useless, I was apprehensive, to say the least.

“Not so!” sayeth my wife! Apparently it’s gotten a hell of a lot easier these days. You simply plug in the device, download a program, press a single button, and the process is completed within seconds. Having procured the application necessary to “purchase” applications from the iTunes Application Store, albeit for the price of approximately zero dollars, I set about getting everything I had ever wanted.

My MSN Messenger client maintains a constant online presence (under the e-mail djinn_is_god@hotmail.com, which just goes to show how badass I thought I was when I was twelve), my Twitter application is now able to deliver pop-up notifications upon receipt of a direct message or “at” reply, my IRC client simply won’t log off (unless I ask it to very nicely), and my entire theme has been streamlined, minimalized, and otherwise made into something better.

It is a sad day, indeed, when it is discovered that the only way to make the iPhone do what I want it to (which really isn’t all that much beyond its current, un-jailbroken capacity) is to resort to a variety of l33t h4×0rz. That said, I am glad I managed to get it done right. My only regret is that I did not do this sooner.

My 1st Edition AD&D game was a bust. Turns out almost nobody was interested in it. I expressed some disappointment at the lack of enthusiasm on the point of others, but it did me (and the game at large) very little good.

The game abandoned, Kaitlin and I went out to Original Joe’s with Ethan and Sheena, wherein we had drinks, food, and a great time. We went back to their place after. I got second place in Trivial Pursuit, then second place in Mario Party, the latter of which I am convinced is a fixed game that simply refuses to award strategic gameplay.

Now I’m sitting around, drinking a coffee, and watching Ice Road Truckers. Pretty good Sunday, as far as I’m concerned.

I have a Tumblr account now. I have it pulling content from my blog, which it will then post to my Twitter. My Facebook page will then pull the content from my Twitter and post it as a status update.

I am more fully integrated with social networking sites now than I have ever been before.
