Worthless and Weak

Today, I was planning on introducing the rest of the characters in the low rated sitcom that is my life. Yesterday, I introduced Trebla, who I'm sure my entire existance, (or at least blog) will be dedicated to fighting. Today, you'll meet some other people, allies and foes alike.

But first, my day. I had jury duty today, and I basically sat in a nice room for several hours, a guy telling us that we need to be back in the room in 15 minutes at 30 minute intervals. Then we were informed that the defendant in the only case had been trying to plead guilty over all that time, so we could all go home. How fun. The actual case was very very complicated, all I can say is that it involved a 63 year old woman, a get rich quick scheme over the internet, and a bank that makes "cheap" 10% interest rates to seniors. I have no idea what she did that was illegal, but it took her over 3 hours to figure it out. (and that is entirely true)

But, on to more important matters. Today, during ultimate frisbee, I made perhaps the greatest catch I've ever made. I was being covered by a pretty good player named Andrew, and the frisbee was thrown to me. Because he was in front of me, I tried to go towards the frisbee (so he couldn't intercept it). I slipped, and was on my knees, the frisbee coming towards me, and Andrew running towards me at a high rate of speed. I threw my arm up, and somehow managed to get the frisbee instead of him, which made it a really good catch. However, Andrew kept on running, and I kind of ducked (I was already down at this point) and Andrew just ran into me, the upper half of his body continued at its current speed, but the lower half stopped. He did a sommersault over me. Then, I got up and threw it for a touchdown. Oh yeah. That was definately the best catch I've ever made. I also did some other cool things that game, like skin my knee by diving on the track, and catching a few hard to catch frisbees.

Of course, now is the moment that you've been waiting for. I shall introduce more characters of the short story that is my life.

The fellow denizens of my abode:

Seth: (this is the RA seth, not the other Seth) Seth is a very mysterious person. He comes and goes as he pleases, and sometimes I don't see him for days. He spends most of his time elsewhere, and when he is in rarely talks to me or my other roommates. He may be in league with Trebla, but is more likely completely neutral in our struggle. Based on what I know about him though, he may be willing to make a temporary alliance with Trebla, or do some work for him in exchange for a reward of some sort. I consider Seth many times the suppior of me, (although still nowhere near Trebla's level) and I believe he might be a wizard.

Seth: (this is the other seth) Seth is not my arch enemy. He is the comic relief enemy. For instance, if you've ever played Secret of Mana, Trebla would be the empire, and all their evil things. Seth would be the scorpion army. He is a bigger fool than I, (which is saying something) and therefore I don't give much credit to his evil plans of evilness and stupidity. Some interesting things about him are that he is completely irresponsible (the day we moved in, he lost his keys, and we had to spend several hours looking for them). He thinks he's much smarter than he really is, and most of his plans go poorly, with huge messes left behind (which I sometimes have to clean up, which is about the worst thing he can do to me). He has hair approaching Anime preportions, which can get scary. He would never allie with Trebla willingly, however I am certain that Trebla could use seth against me if he so desired.

Nate: Nate is a squire from New Hampshire, trying to become a knight, by capturing or killing a mouse. If he does so, he will win the effection of his fair maiden, as well as the respect from his countrymen. And he'd get a cool sword. Other than that, Nate is pretty cool, he spends most of his time here sitting around his computer, either working on school work or trying to get his computer fixed, or reading or playing the guitar. I don't think that he is allied at all with Trebla (although I'm not entirely ruling that out) and, when we first arrived, gave me what was surely a priceless holy relic (an ethernet card) which helped me get the internet working on my comp, which was clearly an evil scheme of Treblas. So, if I have to trust somebody, Nate has both the moderate intelligence and has displayed virtous qualities (he is after all, trying to become a knight). So, of all my roommates, I probably like/trust Nate the most, despite the fact that he is a pinko-commie. I view Nate as my slight supperior.

Mice, rats, cockroaches, ghosts, and other unwanted fellows: Our room has at least some sort of vermin (which of course, Nate is trying to kill/capture) Anyway, we haven't seen them in a few days, which probably means that they are just learning how to hide better. The vermin were perhaps sent by Trebla, and I can easily see how he could use them against me. I view whatever infestation we have as about twice as superior as Nate, which would put it well beyond me.

Thats all for today, tomorrow I will perhaps introduce more characters.
