Ein's taken to howling when I leave the apartment now. Poor guy; he's so lonely. I was thinking about going to Mark's tonight to hang out with the guys, but I think I may just stay home with the four-footed one to make up for being gone at work during the week.

Talked to Z earlier. She's having a great time in Baltimore; she's finding herself enjoying Otakon more than A-Kon. She says it's mostly because A) it's bigger, and B) Baltimore is easier to walk around in. She's been enjoying looking out on the bay. She's now planning to get an art table for A-Kon, and have the sales she makes there pay the way for us both to go to Otakon, and then have the art she sells at Otakon be her profit for the two-con circuit. Sounds like a good plan to me.

Got a little Warlord deckbuilding done, and going to do more today. Time to make the "Fast, mobil, deadly" deck that Dan wants (and no, that's not supposed to be "mobile"; it's "mobil" for a reason). Got to tweak a couple of other decks. Sent off two trades today, along with a couple of demo decks to help out a guy who got cheated on a trade (by someone who also cheated me, apparently for the same cards). Tallied up the money I've spent on postage this week, and it's been almost enough to buy 3 packs of cards. I've gotten much more than 3 pack's worth of cards, though, so I consider it money well spent.

Going through some of my old demo CDs, and found the one with the demo for Aliens Vs. Predator 2. Installed it, and played the Marine mission.

I'm still shaking, 30 minutes later. I'm jumpy and twitchy. Running through the dark hallways, your shoulder light occasionally going out so it can recharge, everything's quiet, but then you hear something. Was it just ambient noise? Was it something moving? The motion tracker's not showing anything, but then, it can't scan behind you. Turn around, okay, it was nothing... wait... is that a blip on the tracker? Two blips? Why is that grating bending, as if something's hitting it from below?

Damn demo gets me every time. Definitely not a game I'm going to buy, just because I can only take so much paranoid terror in my life.
