Frantic Calculus

This is a test, this is only a test. A calculus test. Mwahaha! Take
THAT, punks!

I just got absolutely crushed by my brother at Age of Empires II. We
started with one ally each, but they both turned on us and teamed up
with each other. so we killed them, and then when it was only the two
of us left, we had a huge battle right in the middle. We had about
the same number of troops, but his were long ranged and he had a
castle nearby. Needless to say, I got trounced. So I ran away and
started a new Town Center in my enemy's now forsaken lands. We had a
few more smaller battles, and then I again retreated into the other
enemy's land. I mostly was trying to find more resources and a
war-free zone where I could gather enough stone to build more castles
to keep him out, but it didn't work. I kept building things that he
destroyed just a few minutes afterward. It was pathetic. I finally
lost when my last villager stumbled into his conquistadors. He
doubled my final score, and quadrupled my kills, but I had more than
twice his number of castles, and my society score was way higher. Fun
stuff, Congrats, Andy.

Today is Gunpowder Day, and also Guy Fawkes Day. If you know why I
think that combo is amusing, you win a gold star AND two brownie
points. Tomorrow, I probably won't be writing an email, so I'll let
you know in advance... tomorrow is Andy's birthday. Happy birthday
Andy!

Have fun with that link. I think it is a very clever idea. My sister
sent me the link, thanks a lot!

It's pretty trippy.

I had a piece of sourdough toast and half a fried egg, and roughly 1.5
scrambled eggs for breakfast. I have not yet had lunch. I have also
not yet had dinner. I plan on having both before the day is through.
Mmm. Lunch and dinner!

Eleven more days is all. Have a great day!
