Quickies!

     Nothing big happened today, so here goes with an update about a bunch of little things.  I reserve the right to make a full update about any of these in the future, but here's a snapshot of where I am right now.  I'm calling this:

     Quickies!

 - 

     Cold moped driving is cold.  I drove to school today, spent an hour in the visitor center getting my pass sorted out to get on the Air Force base where my school is located, and did it all on my moped.  After an ice storm.  In sub-freezing temperatures.  I was wearing two coats and a sweater and I was still chilled to the bone.  Also?  Turns out class was cancelled today and I didn't get the message until after I was at the building.

 - 

     I finally caught up on Breaking Bad.  Overall, I REALLY enjoyed the series.  Though I do wish there had been some more closure on some of the characters.  Like Jesse or Saul Goodman.

 - 

     Been playing some more Diablo III.  The new "Loot 2.0" patch feels more like a complete overhaul than a patch, but that's par for the course for the Diablo franchise.  And so far, I'm having a blast.  I took a new character from level 1 to level 40 in a day and found no less than six legendary items.  The new loot system seems to be working and you can call me tentatively approving of the change.

 - 

     'Let it go' won an Oscar.  Good.  The song is fantastic and means a lot more than you probably realize.  Seriously, go on YouTube and listen to the song with your eyes closed.  Imagine a teenage girl who is coming out of the closet as a lesbian.  As Bob 'Moviebob' Chipman was the first to opine, 'Let it go' basically reads "Not only am I finally out of the closet, I'm FABULOUS!"

 - 

     Twitch Plays Pokemon completed Pokemon Red, and has moved onto Crystal.  Praise Helix!

 - 

     Archer Vice, which I thought would lose me when they revamped the show, is turning out to be just as funny and awesome as it has always been.  Changing up the formula a bit injected some much needed freshness into the series without changing so much that it lost its' identity.  Good stuff.

 - 

     Why hasn't Doctor Who started back up yet?

 - 

     Pokemon anime is on netflix now.  Sort of.  It only has season 1 and season 14.  Kind of a big gap in the series timeline, there, doncha think?  Also, when did Ash forget all his experience as a Pokemon trainer?  Oh!  And when did Jesse and James (of team Rocket) become semi-competent?

 - 

     Would it be a feux-pas to get a pizza from Little Ceasars, take it to my local Krispy Kreme, and eat it there so I can use the wifi?  What if I bought some doughnuts and a drink?

 - 

     Welp, there you have it.  The first Quickies update to this daily challenge.  Hope you enjoyed!  Until tomorrow, lovelies!
