There's a new post on my gaming blog!

(Warning: contains spiders.)

That is to say, catching up on all the TV I've missed (hence the many Twitter/LJ posts about America's Next Top Model) and trying to make some progress on my numerous half-finished video games. I was doing quite well earlier on Trauma Centre: Second Opinion, until my Wii crashed at the beginning of an operation. Still, better there than halfway ( Read more... )

It was quite nice, too; I made Egg Fu Young from Chinese Cooking Made Easy by Ching He Huang - it's ( Read more... )

HOW AMAZING IS THIS?

I rather wish I hadn't tried to discover the origin of the "Damon Gant will raep you" meme - I'm still none the wiser, just a lot more scared.
