Last week ended pretty wildly. There was a birthday party... apparently, I got older or something. Organizing it was a chaotic mess and I was pretty nervous (things not going according to a strict plan drives me insane), but it turned out pretty well in the end. As an added bonus, our driver got drunk - so hammered, that he started giving lectures about the Latin origins of words (???) and other weird things. We had to call his wife to collect him. Embarrassing for him, but for us a great source of gossip for the whole week, haw!

We also got daylight savings time. I had just gotten used ot getting up together with the sun, but now it is dark again when I wake up. A pity, because darkness was a good way to recognize if it was really time to get up, or it was just one of my random awakenings.

The only instance of a (somewhat) useful 3D map I've seen is in Descent 1 and 2 - it's a wireframe thing that you can move and rotate in many ways, allowing for much greater visibility than what Daggerfall has. It gets even better with the addition of markers in D2 (they are shown on the map too).

I've tried Half-Life's version of Team Fortress, without other players though. Just running around and shooting at the walls. I remember the Pyro class, which had a flamethrower. And the fast-moving Scout, indeed.

One of these days I should probably get one of those headphones + mic combos. It's an easy solution, and I won't have to be so mute anymore ;)
