You may recall me mentioning JoeTheGuy wanting to talk about Valentine's Day but I'm not gonna let him. He's being whiney and nit-picky and I just can't stand that. He had some point to make about it being a christian holiday celebrated by non-christians, and the hypocrisy of it all. "If they don't celebrate Christmas, they shouldn't celebrate Valentine's Day". He threw St.Patrick's Day in there too. He has a bit of a point but again, nit-picky.
Computer Upgrade 2009 has gone great. New mem, new power supply, new HD and a shit load of new games keeping me happy. Dead Space scares the shit outta me. Such a wonderful atmosphere to that game. Mass Effect is a bloody brilliant work of interactive art. I'm still on the fence about what I think of Spore but Civ 4 is pretty cool.
Did I mention the gifts me ma sent up? Peanut Butter cups (my fav) and a few other sundries but the best are these squeezy hand grip things that used to be Destiny's. I fucking love those things. When I'm at work I usually pick up a stress ball and use that. Not for stress but to exercise my arm muscles. These squeezy things are much better.
Need to clean up around here.
I need a good book to read. I'm just rereading shit I've already read which is nice but I want something new right now.
