One for the blogs

oh slag


I'm not a blog-every-moment type of person (if my posts aren't testament enough), but this day just needs to get up there in cyberspace.

One: Subieeee sighting!! XDDDD

I spotted a silver WRX at an intersection on my way to work. It's the fugly GD model, the one with fugly headlights. It's very rare to see any model on display (except the GC8 and GDBF I'm ogling at every passing moment when commuting), more so on the road. Still, knowing it's an Impreza (and seeing the wicked-looking scoop on the hood) makes me drooooooooool. <33333333


Two: Nothing is sacred.

Got to work to find that my old CPU was hooked up in place of my new one. Long story short: old CPU was to be formatted to be used as a test unit. What they didn't tell me was that they formatted it on my station. Where my clutter and two pairs of socks (I used during gym) are out and about--of course, said recalcitrant socks are flung behind the old CPU, and... you get the picture. ^^;;

I'm torn between embarrassment and amusement as I picture the hapless IT guy who was working then. In my defense, my socks weren't smelly... much. ^^;;;;

Way to go, me!

Su~bieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

SO Airwolf!
Can anyone spot me 600K???? Oooooh, to have one, in its gas-guzzling, snort-roaring glory and all!




It's like eyeing that cute little puppy you've always wanted in that pet store. And said pet store is in the neighborhood, en route to work! Can you believe the daily torture?? I can't believe I DID NOT put my greedy hands all over it when I was taking pictures.... sigh...

To the Bunta-mobile!

I still can't believe I've churned out P400 on ID4 today! I had been vocal about getting the Impreza WRX to boost up my car lineup. And that monster doesn't come cheap: seven swipes of my card! But it was worth getting it. Good handling, stable on the corners, and the engine could very well ruin eardrums if it were the real thing. Some Initial-D fans would lovingly call it the Bunta-mobile, after the character that owns the Impreza in the series, a respected and crazy-ass racer.

Behold the Bunta-mobile!




Unfortunately, it didn't keep me from losing badly to DarkMagician's insane driving and her silver FD. I don't know if I was still trying to get the hang of it, or due to the mounting headache. But man! I was beaten on most of our battles together. I think I may have won one or two, we had a lot of races, and covered most of the courses, even the entry-level Akina Lake because I was just picking one at random in my frustration. I surely am not  a good loser.

On the upside, I did finally beat the smug Shingo on the downhill with this baby (heh, eat blue paint, arrogant Night Kids smartass! XD) and Iketani on Akina. I battled with other racers, like Impact Blue and a couple of RedSuns. It was pretty embarrassing when I raced Ryousuke. I had no idea what the hell I was doing stuck on second gear on the starting dash. Ugh. I think it's one of his tactics, to reel me in with his charisma. Whatever it was, it worked, dammit. Why'd he have to be so delectable?? X/

I told DarkMagician that I might beg off playing for a little bit. I hope that holds true, because I might go and burn money again! T_________T P400 might not be a lot to some folks, but it is to someone who's never done this before. But I have to admit, it was a great stress-buster! If I would ever find my steps leading to the arcade again, I'll try to pace myself. Payday's about a week away. =)
