The Campaign against the Mushroom Kingdom Continues

Well, this week was kinda 'blah'. I spent most of the time going to work, and then basically wasting time afterwards. On Thursday, my Mom went to the doctor and got some scary news... I don't think there's anything to do about it now, except wait for the doctors to run their tests and find out the truth... but, that pretty much killed that night.

In the meantime, I'm still playing Europa Universalis 2. It took me a while to get past 1441... every time I started to play, something idiotic happened that set down a path of total destruction. In one game, Helvetia refused to make peace with Austria, leading to an Austrian invasion of Milan. After Milan became Austria's vassal, I decided to annex them... which destroyed my economy utterly, forcing me to disband my military and leaving me open for invasion by (depending on the attempt) Tunisia, Algiers, Austria, or Venice. I finally have gotten past that point though. It's 1466 and I've been at peace for about 20 years.

I downloaded a program that will eventually let me transfer my game into Victoria (same game idea, only set between 1836 and 1935). I've tried it a couple times so far, and the transferred 1466 game lists my country as being one of the Great Powers! O_O (I'm the weakest of the Great Powers, but still...)

Now, I'm left wondering what to do this week. I'm bored of just sitting around my house every day after work (I didn't even babysit Taliyah this week...) Maybe I should call Ed or Matt (after I call Emma, though, I keep forgetting to return her call from Thursday).

Oh yeah, one more thing:
