Damn Dahaka...

It's hard enough running from this thing when you've got a hallway full of straight angles. But now I'm in a jungle-overgrown, broken stone landscape, and the damn thing just keeps pulling me back...pulling me back...pulling me back...

Gaaah! I can't take it anymore!

Ring ring ring! Ring ring ring! Phone call! Phone call...

Got me a new cell phone. A black Motorola Razr.

And now I get to read the booklet and figure out how to do shit with it.

Woot!

Pizza, the Prince of Persia, Evangelion and me...

Yep, that's my sked for today. I've had pizza and am now online, so then I'll go play Warrior Within and then watch some Eva.

Tuesday, December 27, 2005

Pizza, pizza, come to me...

Yeah, I'm bored, so I'm gonna order a pizza and watch some Evangelion. Damn, this series kicks ass.

Then, I'll play some Warrior Within, then probably go to bed.

Merry ****in' Christmas...

I started my Christmas shopping today.

Yes, I started today. And in that one day's time, I'm almost broke.

Time for bed.

Onward...

Playing Warrior Within yesterday, I got past this one part that I'd had trouble getting past 5 times previously. Yes! Now it's just a race to the next save point.

No! My power went out!

At that point, I said "fuck it" and went to bed.

Sunday, December 18, 2005

Need bed tired...

Going to bed now.

Saturday, December 17, 2005

Naught much to say...

Except that I'm now going to bed. Good day and good night. *pthbbb*

Ice ice baby, too cold...

Well, hopefully my power is now back on to stay. And hopefully, I'll be able to get into work tonight. Even if it DOES mean dealing with idiots like Caboose.

Ice ice baby...

Sorry, couldn't resist. Well, I had to scrape the ice off my windshield and windows today, and by the time I was finished, the top of my head was numb. Completely numb.

Then we went over to Buck's and changed up the teams for a few games, me and Buck VS. Sarge and snookie. First game, on Backwash, I sucked(I hate that board). Second game, I can't remember where, Buck and me were dead even, 25 each.

And now it's bad weather again, I'm sick as a dog, and I intend to sleep tonight.

Not quite as sad today...

Yeah, we got together this A.M. and did the same thing, only this time we switched up the teams: it was Buck(SGT Diehard) and Jack VS. me and snookie.

Short story: we got beat. Several times. Long story: we made 'em work for it.

See, head to head, Buck's better than me, snookie, or Jack, and not quite as good as Sarge. Jack's almost as good as me all around, and snookie's about the next tier down, though he's gotten a lot better. In teams, Sarge and I have been playing together so long that we're almost unbeatable. And when me and Jack played yesterday, Buck and snookie got raped.

But today was different, and I freely admit it. Probably the last time that'll happen, but enjoy it while you can, guys...

How sad is this?

My Halo 2 bud SGT Diehard invites me over to his house for some Halo this morning. Also along are our coworker snookie, and another coworker/possible future Clanmate I'd never played with before, Barnesy.

And what was really sad was that Barnsey and I just fucking smoked Buck and snookie. I mean, they had it really close a couple times, and we did tie the first match we played(MLG rules, 25 to 25), but we beat them every other game. One game, I had 30 kills and Barnsey had 20, then the last game we played, he had 30 and I had 20. And again, this is with a guy I'd never played with before. Heh-heh-heh...round two of smack talking will now commence.

Who's your daddy? WHO'S YOUR DADDY?!?!

Crap! Missed a day again!

Okay, I am NOT going to miss another day. Right now, I'm gonna go play some Warrior Within and then watch some Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Saturday, December 10, 2005

It's late, and I'm...very...tired now...

Yeah, I was gonna start Warrior Within, but went over to Buck's this morning to play Halo 2 and that ate up about 4 hours, and now it's 3 and I'm going to bed.

Time I had some time alone...

Well, I guess the Prince did get lucky, but that doesn't really matter since Farah doesn't remember jack anyway. Nice ending, now it's off to play Warrior Within.

Thursday, December 08, 2005

A sort of runic rhyme...

Time to go and beat The Sands of Time. Hmm...maybe the Prince got lucky yesterday. Then again, maybe not. Damn time visions!

Persian princes and their atleticism...

Hey, just going to go and try to finish off Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, after which I'll probably play a little The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time...guess this is just my week for playing 'time' games.

Yay for my dvd collection...

Bought a new DVD shelving unit, and so now, between two shelves of a book case, two DVD towers, and the new unit, I have all of my DVD's in order. Yay!

Comical...

Yeah, took my buddy SGT Diehard to Charlotte, to the comic store Heroes Aren't Hard To Find. He wanted to get back into comics, so he paid for gas and I drove. While I was there, I picked up Dr. Slump #4(KIIIIN!), a couple of $1 comics(Marvel Team-Up #135 and Deathstroke the Terminator #1), the Rouge/Mystique Minimates, and Batman's 'The Long Halloween' by Jeph Loeb. And now, I hear that the weather is supposed to be crappy tonight, with ice. I'm praying for ice, because if the roads are icy, I will not be going into work.

Saw 'Goblet of Fire', and while overall it was good, I did have issues with certain things.

Brendan Gleeson played Moody, IMO, wrong. He should have been more serious, deliberate, and not so "Whaaa!! I'm a crazy old codger, Whaaa!!!"

Poor, poor underused Alan Rickman. And I bet Gary Oldman was embarrassed to pick up his check.

And I wish they'd forget Cuaron's PoA demonstration: 'Expelliarmus' doesn't toss people ten feet through the air; that would be 'Stupefy'.

The Barty Crouch angle was just executed wrong; there was no mystery to it, since we'd already seen him. Add to that, he's still alive.

Ralph Fiennes, however, was an excellent Voldemort. Kinda miss the snake eyes, but oh well.

Emma Watson and Katie Leung at the Yule Ball. Drooool....

Mostly, I feel the movie could have been better with just perhaps an additional 10 minutes of exposition. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I don't usually mind them taking things out for time purposes, but I DO mind when they take things out and replace them with things that didn't happen in the book!

Sleep. Sleep, Data...

I...need...sleep.

Saw 'Goblet of Fire', watched the uncut 'Saw', and in a little over six hours, got from 12% to 68% in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. So now, I'm going to bed and then wake up later to finish it. In theory.

Saturday, December 03, 2005

Down at my bud's...

And soon, very soon, we shall have a Large Stuffed Crust Pizza with pepperoni and hamburger. And Cheerwine. And Keebler Soft Bake chocolate chip cookies.

And then, it'll be time for Saw: Uncut, and then tomorrow, it'll be Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire. Woot!

Temporary terror...

Yep, that's what it was when I looked at my online bank balance and saw that in 24 hours time, it had gone down $460.00. Then, however, I remembered that everything that NEEDED to be paid now HAS been paid, so with the money that remains, I'm good.

And I was going to say something about an observation, or some idiot I remember, but I'm so tired the thought has flown out of my mind on little wings. Ah, well. Maybe tomorrow.

Stupid cable company...

How dare they cut off my cable just because I'm two months behind in my payments? Really?

;)
