Hey beta team!

It's my birthday on Saturday. Thought it might be fun to have more digital drinks and have a little party in Mac Anu. Meet some more people. Play some games - not the one we're playing obviously lol but party games. You get my drift.

I'll figure out how to get more drinks too. Lol

Anyway. You're all invited. Hope to see you there :-)

Yeah. It makes me a little surprised that I managed to get on here with someone I know. I guess the chances must not be that high.

I think that's a fun part about big games like this, though. I don't play them very often. But I like seeing where people are from and hearing what they like to do. Or what things they make for breakfast while I'm going to bed.

[secondthoughts]

You know somebody already? Small world. Must have been a fun surprise.

But you're right. I didn't realize the playerbase was all over at first.

So how about you? What'd you last eat?

[gluttoning]

Family member, actually. He's a lot more serious about this than I am. I entered the raffle with my team as kind of a joke. Didn't think I'd win.

I had six eggs scrambled with vegetables, a bowl of oatmeal with mixed berries, a glass of milk and two glass of OJ, and this smoothie mix my coach wanted me to try for the extra protein but I saved half of that for practice.

[ Whoa. This guy is serious about food. That's such a shock to Hector he totally glosses over the first part of the comment. ]

That's a serious diet you have going. I just had a banana for a snack earlier. What are you training for?

[gluttoning]

Football. Linebacker, they put me in for utility on receiving sometimes.

[secondthoughts]

Oh no kidding? Where do you play?

[ Perhaps he has seen this guy on TV when he partakes in the Watching of Sportsball. ]

[gluttoning]

Still collegiate, though I'm just second string right now. I'm in the Pac-10 conference.

[secondthoughts]

Second string, but still not bad at all. I've probably seen you play on TV lol I'm impressed.

I'd better get you an extra plate of cookies then lol

[gluttoning]

Coach would kill me if I said anything else on a public site. Thanks anyway, though. I hope I'm on a team you cheered for.

You like watching football, Hector?

[secondthoughts]

No, that's fair. Don't say anything that'll put you in trouble. I'm just a guy on the internet lol

Sometimes! Good bonding activity. Don't play much sports myself but I knew guys that played back in college. They had it rough. I hope you're taking care of yourself.

[gluttoning]

I'm still figuring some things out. But I've always been tough. And I'm glad for the opportunity. I can't afford to waste it.

Coach is fine with my participation here so long as it's on my own time. If I can find ways to add to my training or that might be good for our team, that's even better.

[secondthoughts]

Yeah. Don't throw that away for a video game.

But enjoy it while you're here. You learn stuff from the most unexpected places. Maybe one of the players here used to play and you could learn from them. Or maybe not lol

[gluttoning]

Yeah. I don't mind either way. I get to play with my brother, and that's good enough for me.

I hope you'll have a party in the real world, too? Not just with us.

[secondthoughts]

I still can't believe you got in with your brother lol

Probably. Gonna have coffee and donuts with coworkers in the morning but that's about it. Don't really want any more than that honestly. I'm the only one that has off that day, so I don't mind spending the rest of it with you guys.

[gluttoning]

Yeah. Like I said, my sign up was a joke. My bro probably signed up for this as soon as he could, though.

You should ask for birthday donuts.

[secondthoughts]

They ARE my birthday donuts. I know where they're hiding the candles and everything lol

[gluttoning]

Extra birthday donuts, then.

[secondthoughts]

Yeah. I'll ask for the whole box.

[gluttoning]

Good. You deserve it.

[secondthoughts]

Thanks lol

See you at the party :-)
