Random Update Stuff

You know? I find that I really enjoy reading my friend’s LJs when they just write about the random crap in their day… So I’m going to try to do a bit more of that… 🙂

I missed an airsoft game today because of “You Really Otta Pay Attention To What You Eat The Day Before A Game” Syndrome. Meh. I suppose I could load up and go right now (get there about 12:30ish), but I’m just not motivated.
My Sun Project M16 is being a horrendous pain. There’s one fitting where a 6mm hose fits into the trigger valve, and the hose has gotten worn enough that it won’t stay on under pressure, and I don’t have the things I need to fix it properly. That was the gun I wanted to use in the game today… I can’t use the Garand, because it shoots *WELL* over the field limit (just under TWICE the field limit, in fact. It *should* shoot around 260 FPS, and it *IS* shooting just over 500 FPS.). I really don’t feel like using the Sun Project M40 *again*… So the motivation to go just isn’t there.

Played WWII Online last night… I’ve got the Saitek R440 wheel and CH Pro Pedals that I use for racing games set up for WWII Online so I can use them for trucks, tanks, and artillery. That’s pretty freaking cool, and it makes it SO much easier to maneuver the smaller field guns, especially… Before, I had them set up for mouse movement and steering, and getting them to track a straight line was nearly impossible. Now, it’s a breeze. Last night, the Iron Wolves mounted an operation to go harrass the airfield at Reims. It took us over 90 minutes of driving cross country to get there, and I was the first one killed – and that was within 30 seconds of deploying. *DOH* I have to say, I felt just a little shred bit like a Normandy Soldier…Train for 6 months on how to assault the beach, ramp goes down….wade out into the water…and a bullet kills me – and my dying thought is “Way to contribute to the War Effort, there, Sparky”.

I think I need some caffeine.
