Hey there. Well I still have this cough, it kind of turned in to a funky, shitty cold for a couple of days but seems to gone back to enjoying itself as being a free and single cough again. I wouldn't mind as long as it made my voice all smexy and growly but it's just all mannish and gravely. Not sexy. Plus I'm going to have to wait for this little bastard to go, or at least settle down a bit, before I get my tattoo. I refuse to have a coughing fit while someone is stabbing ink into my fleshy flesh. Plus I have half a big bottle of JD that needs a drinking with my special lady friend (as in actual friend who is a lady. Well sort of a lady.), but alas being plagued I have so far been unable to do this.
So while I'm stuck in my disease pit I've been playing Okami. I was a little dubious at first, well I normally am at things that people rave about, but I took a chance and gave it a go. Really loving it so far. I think this may have something to do with the fact that it's very Zelda like in game play. Which could be seen as a con but it's a good system so I'm not going to complain about it. HOWEVER the *"^%£! vine brush drives me up the WALL! If you play it/played it I'm sure you will understand. Trying to connect the flowers to hooks made me actually start hitting my head with the control pad.
Meh.
The art's awesome though and I love the use of Japanese myths they mixed in (which I actually got the most of, that dissertation was actually of some use after all!). So give it a whirl folks. Control-head-bashing aside it's worth a play.
