My husband is not the type to buy me flowers, but he is the type to buy me new hard drives :-) He found a sweet deal on a 250GB drive, up from my current 40GB. Now I can install Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Morrowind, Neverwinter Nights and all my other games and stuff! I love you hun!

=) Your comp sounds like a role-players heaven.

I personally don't like to buy flowers unless they're potted plants. Seems like a waste of flowers to just cut them, and have them die like 2 days later.

I prefer to buy people something practical, and put some thought into it. Flowers may be a nice sentiment, but when they die, you're left with nothing. Might as well buy something they can use.

LOL, well, it could use a better video card, I think, and a bunch of other things, but the space thing is a huge improvement!

It's nicer to give a potted plant, for sure! I don't see the point of giving something that will die so quickly either. Bud once gave me roses and the next day they went wrinkly :P Oh! Chocolate roses are better than real roses too :-D

Thats great! way better than flowers, I mean you cant play morrowind on flowers can you!!!

Have you got oblivion yet?(the next morrowind game) after my computer blew up ( Im on my sisters laptop now) we resolved to buy a computer thats strong enough to play oblivion.

Heheh, LOL, no :-)

I'm still wandering around Morrowind. I think I have been playing this darn game for two years now! My comp isn't fast enough to play Oblivion, but I have seen friends play it. It is sweet! I love it when the grass blows :-) Maybe I'll end up getting an Xbox instead.

Is you computer in a room where either of the birds are? My birds love talking back to the sound effects in games. They go crazy over Zoo Tycoon.

Jill is in my hobby room where the computer normally is (I guess there was some problem with ghosting my old drive over, its guts are all over the workbench, heh). Moxie has never been big on computer noises unless it was my PDA. He sure likes laser sounds :-)

When we were kids and first got the Atari 2600, the budgies went nuts!

I haven't played Zoo Tycoon in some time. I can't find the original disc and there was no room to install it anyway on my last upgrade. I originally had a 120 GB drive, but somehow I ended up with 40 then.

Hah! I still haven't finished Morrowind either!! I got distracted by Battlefield 2 and a few other games!

[calzephyr77.livejournal.com]

LOL :-) It sure does take a long time to complete. It only took me six months to finish the original BG. I played for three hours this morning for the sole sake of map clearing and levelling up. Do you still play EQ?

[ramenleopard.livejournal.com]

nah I stopped playing EQ quite awhile ago. I was playing another MMO called EVE Online for a long time but finally stopped because they take so much of your time and I had other non-MMO multiplayer games that I enjoyed way more, like BF2.
