For the first time, I ascended in the Annual Nethack Tournament! Nethack is one of my favorite games ever; I like playing Rogues and Wizards. My only previous attempt at the Tourney, I played a Wizard. My score was astronomical, but I just didn't have time to finish playing.

This year, I played a Valkyrie, because they're supposed to be easy. I made a few stupid mistakes, and I didn't have enough time to play, but at the end of the month I rushed through her ascension. My score was #16 overall at the time.

So, my daughter goes to gym class. She goes to class with no problems, but before Eri leaves, she notices that she's unhappy. When she asks what's wrong, Kayla says, "My eyes keep getting wet."

Turns out she thought she was in the wrong class. She perked right back up when she found out her class had been changed.

Perhaps it's just the writers strike, but I've never mentioned a comic strip on my website before. And I found two that were worth looking at in this... five-week period. I really need to read my webcomics more often.

Ozy and Millie is often a thoughtful, insightful comic. In this strip, we find out that Ozy's dad can get his geek on.

And this XKCD is fantastic for any SQL/web geek. Be sure to read the tooltip, too.

We had a second rehearsal this weekend. Rather than big, ugly videos hogging my webspace and bandwidth, I decided to provide some ugly MP3s instead. These were actually recorded from a real video camera, so the microphone quality should be better. I own the copyrights to these audio files.

You can hear our second attempt at Canon or our second attempt at the Bridal March.

Post personal crap on your blog where the whole world can see it.

Sorry, Eri.
