Aah yes, academia...

Been back at school for a week. It's... nice. After the chaos that was this summer, it's nice to have structure in my life.

Granted, that structure invovles classes, homework, and balancing everything... Nonetheless, it's good to be back. And I am happy.

[livejournal.com profile] squeeky_vis in town until Wednesday. [livejournal.com profile] domnall's been very good about letting her hang out at his place. *grin* My apartment's just fine for me, but it's not got enough things to keep her occupied. (I don't cable, and Elspeth, my laptop, travels with me.)

Work's also good. I'm a phone monkey, but it's not bad, and the people I work with are good. Plus is pays well.

[livejournal.com profile] domnall also bought Final Fantasy XI, and I've got a character on it so I can fool around and get a decent idea of an MMORG before I get dragged into WoW...

In short, life is pretty good right now...

*chortle*

Not for a while - I need to get Elspeth (my laptop) up to speed before I can play, plus get a better internet connection...

I'm viewing FFXI as my opportunity to go "MMORPG!!! EEP!!!! *cowers in fear*"

I kinda know what you mean - for gamers (and even non-gamers) MMO's can be just incredibly seductive. I spent years mocking people who play them only to get all happily tangled up in FF XI.

I'm Finnegan - send me a /tell when you get situated. :)
