I've been away for about and hour and a half and I'm feeling pretty good. These late nights and late wakings are making the days fly by at a fun pace...I don't like to linger too long in them lately. It seems every so often I get a good day, and so far it's going fine.

I've been laying around today reading Clash of Kings, sipping coffee and forgetting my woes. Alex is going to call TI again to see if there's any updates while I sit with my fingers crossed. Lately we've been renting more games to help entertain us through our crappy times. That is a good perk of working for GameStop...probably the only one...is that I can check out games for 4 days.
The first one we check out was the new Batman game. Gotta say, totally a 9 out of 10. The only reason it's not perfect is the replay value is pretty low. Once you beat it, there's no reason to play again unless you crave being the Dark Knight more than one epic time. The puzzles are like crack, the story line gripping, the game-play phenomenal. The only beef I have with it is that you can't keep your upgrades when you start a new game. That would have made it at 10.
The next in line after Batman, which is a hard act to follow, was Prototype. Awful game. Alex says 6 out of 10, I say more like 5 if best. Controls are wonky, plot is stupid, graphics suck ass. Rent it but for the love of Jebus don't buy it.

Back to the book aspect of things, the second in the series Clash of Kings is pretty awesome. Not as fast paced as Game of Thrones, but it's still early in the book. I'm almost at half, and there's some radical plot points in the making. Jon Snow still owns my soul, and Arya Stark is my second favorite, followed very closely by Tyrion Lannister. I have a good feeling that Jamie Lannister is going to explode into the ranks soon but we'll see.
Wanna see something reeeeally cool? LOOK AT DIS.
This is almost as cool as this piece of heaven.

Sigh. If only.

I want more posters and art for this house. I wish I could go shopping so bad. That sounds reeeally shallow I know...I should be grateful for food, a house, and such but...man, I want new clothes and neat stuffs. Me and Alex's anniversary is coming up on the 27th, and I can't get him anything. Nor can he get me anything. Nor can we...DO anything. I wish we could at least go to a movie or something fun. Anything to break the cycle. I suppose curling up on the couch and snuggling and loving each other completely will have to do.
Wait. What's awesome! :D

Off to read more!!~~♥
