The TV compelled me in new ways

Usually when I say I will update later, many have learned that this means I will look at my journal in a post midnight hour, say "fuck it" and leave it alone. I intend to shatter continuity now in my posting habits right now. There, see?

So now then, about this drinking game. Well, we watched a few things, and played a few games. For Cowboy Bebop, it was simple. There was a general set of rules (such as finish your drink whenever they lose a bounty) and then each person had to declare a personal rule. Chris: "I'll drink every time Faye is on screen because she is so hot." Jakob: "I will drink every time we see the stock footage of the Bebop landing, making it seem different to me every time." Michi: "..."

I came out of it fine, and Chris seemed to be no worse for wear either. His computer had been acting strange. I took one look at Task Manager and declared he had a virus probably. My clue was that explorer.exe rarely takes up 6-mb of memory, and never locks up 97-99 clock cycles at a time. You kill explorer, all is well again. You start explorer again, and within moments everything is seized up again. Turns out I was right, and his computer was nice and sick. He said Norton failed him and he just uninstalled it. Why people do that I will never understand; I remember Tindall saying she never gets viruses anyway when she removed her AntiVirus (despite my warnings). I won't understand that...ever. So anyway, I spent some of the morning hours fixing what I could in attempt to get things running again. I will be lending him my systemworks disk so that he can clean the rest of it up. We finally all curled up around 3 or 4 and slept. I was up again at 9:30 to get back to my apartment before heading up north to see cool people. Cool people were seen, Naruto was watched, and all was good again.
