Katie got attacked by fire ants today while walking the dog; ohhhh Texas.

RT @Electric44: “#Leverage Season 3 pick up on my birthday! Now that’s what I call a present!” Yes! One of my favorite shows keeps livin’!
Feels like Friday for me since tomorrow is planning. Really tired, but actually feeling somewhat hopeful today. Got a lot of work yesterday.
/backpatself RT @Faience: Did @Zonk predict Cataclysm back in 2007? Kinda looks that way. I am suitably impressed. http://tinyurl.com/mb36yw
Refusing to be squashed by frustration and annoyance. Pushing forward into the land of productivity, hopefully will be sorted out by EOD.

Old Republic Four-Part Gameplay Preview →
Cataclysm made me pick back up my 80 and start in on some rep/daily grinds again. Also checked out the newest Battleground: 40 v. 40 ftw!
Feel totally drained from this week, but just incredibly excited about the MMO genre over the next two years. Amazing games, amazing ideas.
Pardo just announced that custom map creators will be able to charge for their SCII creations. Amazing stuff. Love the new Battle.net!
Yes! Goblins, Worgen, new secondary prof, re-jiggered Old World … super happy about this. Thanks, @Warcraft !
Hey, congrats, @WoWInsider ! You got it 100% right!
RT @WoWInsider: “Diablo III Monk pictures: http://tinyurl.com/lbpjhm” Interesting, melee class. Bet it’ll take the paladin feel from D2.
Have to say, v. jealous of the Raynor noob in the ‘Con bag. They’re now interviewing folks in line at the store. Store > announcement? Gah.
