So what did everyone do tonight? I'd be interested to hear. Hopefully we'll get answers that range from "studied" or "worked on an experiment" to "orgy" or "overdose". :P

My apartment complex was throwing a Karaoke jam party at the clubhouse tonight from 8-11 which was BYOB. It was nice, they had snacks (some lady from All-State set it up, and is trying to get people to get renters insurance...but it wasn't pushy at all). There were about 25 people there, and I carried over a cooler with an ice cup, my bottle of Captain Morgan spiced rum, and some Cokes. Kicked back, made myself some drinks, and listened to some really bad karaoke! :P Didn't sing anything, but I was trying to get my gf to sing a duet with me, to no avail. She wasn't drinking...her response was "...You realize we're the only introverts in here, right?" "No way...that girl over there seems reserved." "No...it's just us two...why did you want to come here anyway? I wanted to rent a movie." "Relax...we can rent a movie any night." lol.

Anyway we stayed a couple hours then headed out after the gay guy who works at the complex sang a duet with some girl which was "Summer days" from Grease. lol. As we were leaving the dude (probably ENFP or ENFJ) came running out to say "Thanks for coming y'all!" haha.

So anyway...what did y'all do tonight? :)

I hung out with one of my (few) friends who happens to be moving back to Hawaii tomorrow. We didn't do anything crazy, we just hung out, packed stuff in her room, went to dinner, sat around and played "I have never" using pennies instead of alcohol.

Gonna miss that girl...she's the only friend I have that bothers to hang out every once in a while. She gave me a poster of James Dean to console me, but I'm not sure that even a smokin' hottie like him can make me feel better. Sigh.

I played in a Magic the Gathering draft tournament and tied for third place, though somewhat unfairly (due to weird stuff with the tournament I played two rounds against the same guy). Then I played a few more games against the best draft deck (created by my INTJ friend) to test other peoples' decks, lost, and finally had an insane win with my own preconstructed deck. Next Saturday is DnD, the second DnD campaign I've joined this semester. Last Saturday was a Geology movie night where we watched The Core, arguably one of the more hilarious movies ever made. Hueg n3rd? Yes.

It was snowing here (still is), so I resurrected an old off-the-wall online game I wrote 4 years ago, back when I wanted to learn PHP and mySQL programming (yes, just for fun). I had a separate domain for it once upon a time, but dismantled it while cutting costs, and the game sat on a backup CD for several years. I spent my Saturday night uploading it to my current site, fixing links, holes in the database, and such. It's a nice bit for my portfolio, as I may be looking for a job in the web development field at some point this year. I haven't decided, but my aggravation level with my current occupation is getting dangerously close to the "Enough of this crap!" stage, and I need to keep my options open.

Oh, and I played Mass Effect for a bit. Awesome game.

I went to my first social event in about 3 months actually. I went to the movies to see Juno with a few other guys. That movie was really good. It was the first movie i have seen with a decent theme in a few years.

I spent my whole day writing and debugging a webserver which I am still doing today.

EDIT:
Okay it works provided one doesn't abuse the refresh button.
So I have made a server that is completely at the mercy of mischief makers.

I - listened to BBC Radio 4 on the internet and made a start on tidying my sewing room. Wandered into the kitchen from time to time to make tea for dear husband and me; he was watching the telly and playing 15 minutes games on the ICC (not the ideal way to prepare for a higher ranking at next year's Gibraltar Chess Tournament).

Found time to put three posts on here!

It was good.

I went to bed early, because of illness.

I don't know the correct English medical term for this illness, but its like having a cold in the forehead (inflammation between the facial bones). The headaches are driving me nuts and my left eye keeps producing tears.

Time to take another aspirin and hop to bed.

First day of a week's break from school.

Opened the blinds let in the sun for the first time in a while and oddly felt better, lighter and freer.
A relaxing walk under nice clear skies with my grandpa through the melting snow and dripping icicles to the restaurant for a calm lunch with both my grandparents and their friends.

Later went to the post office and returned my DSL modem to Bell
Helped my grandparents bring in the groceries.

What to do today?

I watched The DaVinci Code for the first time.
It was good, but not really like the book . . .

Got royally trounced at SSBM, gave up and began working on my character sheet for a DnD game opening up next Saturday, got intercepted by a cube draft for MtG (basically, get all the best cards this one guy owns, pass them around, make decks). I had a pretty good deck, but while it had prevention galore it didn't have too much removal, thus making it less effective once people figured out a way around it. Still pretty fun, beat my INTJ friend twice and got beaten once.

I havent seen the movie, but the book was horrible. Brown is not a very good writer at all, plus the think was a historical mockery.

My saturday night was just as the others, alone....just the way i like it. Nothing special, and nothing boring.

I watched the movie Monster with my mom. Holy violent movies! They are everywhere. Last movie night we had we watched the Last King of Scotland. I didn't get much into either movie because I didn't find any of the main characters sympathetic. I didn't much care what happened to them.

I purchased Monster the year it won Charlize Theron the Academy Award. I loved Whale Rider, and wanted to see what got Keisha Castle-Hughes beat out (because she was amazing). I watched it once. I thought Charlize absolutely earned that Academy Award, she disappeared completely into the part. But yeah, *violent* doesn't exactly come close. I can handle violence, but there was something more disturbing about that movie. I still own it, but I'll never watch it again.

Hi, new here. Like this thread. On Saturday night, I watched a DVD called "Gone, Baby, Gone," and then slept poorly because I was meeting friends for brunch at a local Bistro, on Sunday morning. Not being a daytime person, I knew I was going to have to actually wake on time in the morning, in order to meet with them. Had a nice time, though.

I have to study for my stupid history and geometry tests. I wanted to catch up on reading but noooooooooooo. Plus, it's the Academy Awards tommorow night, which is basically the Super Bowl in my household. There's going to be a lot of people so I have to get a lot of homework done.

Saturday night myself, and four other Anarcho-Capitalist friends had a live reading of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. (Seriously) Some excellent wine and other spirits were consumed, and politics and economic "debates" took place also.

This seriously rocks. Will you marry me?

Anyway, I watched a couple of Alfred Hitchcock movies and then started reading The Silmarillion for the umpteenth time. Then I studied for a test I need for my certification.

I caught up with a friend via MSN. I was going to watch a film, but the chatting took up more of my time. I guess that I did have a fairly social Saturday night after all. For me, at least.

Some friends of mine are meeting to watch a movie on my INTP's 96" projection screen.

1 INTP
1 INTJ
1 ISTP
1 E?T?

My ISTJ gf and I will probably join them after the movie and go out to midtown and hit up some lounge and swallow some alcohol. Her and I may hit up a wine-tasting venue before we meet them. We've just been lounging around all day and napping.

Will give a trip report tomorrow if I go. But I can assure you all, with a gathering of all 6 "T's", 5 of which are "I's", there will be absolutely NO hugging or crying, and probably a lot of drunken sh*t-talking and fake bravado. :) Or drunken discussions about economics/city planning, etc... that stuff is always spawned from the other INTJ.

OK yeah so my gf and I got over to his place and ...gasp!...there was a strange new guy at my friend's place! He seemed INTP, though. He was new to this city, and has only been here 2 weeks. They met playing basketball at his apartment...anyway.

So I caught the end of Gone Baby Gone on the 96-incher. I brought a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon over and dispensed it evenly among the crowd. We then headed to a little bar for an hour and slammed some brews and chose some songs on the jukebox. INTP chose Far Behind by Candlebox, and I chose Beat It by Michael Jackson (being goofy, but I do like the song), and For Those About to Rock by AC/DC. Then the gang walked down the block and went to another bar and INTP put his head down and fell asleep. We kept trying to wake him up and I kept putting my finger on his head, on the "dot" where the hair spirals out from....and he wasn't getting up, so I started sprinkling table salt and pepper in his hair and then the rest of us set menus and coasters on his head, neck, and shoulders. We have camera-phone pics to prove it!

20 minutes later I notice the table is wet and it turns out INTP freaking hurled while his head was down! (He's part Asian and 155 pounds...zero tolerance). So we all had a nice laugh and got him to the bathroom and cleaned him up and I got him some water to drink before we left. Good news is his apartment is about 1/8th a mile from this place.

I called him this morning and verified he is indeed alive. He said his head hurts. He's already seen the camera-phone pics. haahha.

Wow this was way longer than it should have been! Sorry!

Yesterday my wife, kids, and I and four other couples and their kids snowmobiled 5 miles up the mountain outside of town, had a big fire pulled people on tubes, jumped the snowmobiles got stuck a few times and drank lots o' beer and a bottle of peppermint schnapps.

I spent all Saturday (morning, noon, and night) until midnight putting a new clutch in my car!

Two weeks before, there were two separate snow storms that caused major traffic jams and - like a moron - I crept through the jam-ups with one foot on the clutch pedal. Needless to say the throw-out bearing (with 140K miles on it) couldn't take the abuse and burnt out last week.

So, my son and I spent the whole day under the car having a great old time!

No it too some willpower but I didn't touch the controller.
That being said, I think I'll get an F because I couldn't memorize the 27 Electrostatic Field Equations.
