Befallen

I b fallen in Super Cloudbuilt.  It makes me anxious and it’s overstimulating on top of being cell-shaded which I have disliked since the days of JetSetRadio.   This one in particular has a lot of thought put into it and I’m not really giving it the due credit nor time it deserves.  I think some people might really like it.  I think I’m finding a trend of solo games as I explore these new ones.  I picked up my weapon and things started crawling on me so I may need to back of some of the settings a little. An…

New Games

I added a few new games to the library, thanks to some steam sales + lack of impulse control. I missed out on my cart full of songs for Rocksmith – 40% off is the cheapest they ever go and they were on sale this weekend. Just as well as I don’t have the $20 I would have spent on them. However with money being no object in virtual land here are the new additions: – RedOut: holy mackerel this first load is killing me! It’s a 7g install so I can’t imagine why it’s taking this long! There was…

Almost 2 Months Down

…ad infinitum to go. Today has been excruciatingly difficult. It’s been a busy week — celebrating the actual birthdays on Wed and Thu, making sure the parts for the swing set all arrived on time (picking up the big one from the shipping company directly), assembly of said swing set, a setback in group therapy, cleaning and generally getting ready for the kids’ party. I’ve been a bundle of nerves today. I was able to get a brief reprieve with an online SMART meeting and playing catch with G using his new glove. I can’t believe it’s been this many…

>MSNBC Post

>I’ve just posted this message on the MSNBC message boards. I logged into MSN and saw the question – what do you want to speak out about… it inspired me to turn this ball of thoughts into a few sentences. There’s so much more that just bothers me that I’d like to delve as “advice”. With my life experience I can’t really say it’s the answer – but it’s at least something to think about. I’d like to hear some discussion on the matter – give me some insight I lack. I think why I do because I feel I’m…

>BioShock – EtchASketch Style Sooooo much to blog: weddings So first there was my own wedding… then then Justin’s… and now Jon’s on Saturday. baby Not mine, Matt and Jenn had a baby – Charlotte is the baby’s name and she’s my new niece!Of course everyone wants to talk about the young recently married couple’s plans for children… undoubtedly comes up in any conversation within a given square footage of any given newborn, but for the moment (most of) the spotlight has shifted…“Before we’re 30” is the basic mantra, but who knows.

>Future Mutant Creatures Abounding in Chernobyl

>This article indicates wild animals are migrating towards the Chernobyl. That got me to thinking about why the animals were coming back. The first thing that crossed my mind was that life wants to evolve, radiation helps that fact. Is there an instinct that drives these animals to a location that may help them evolve faster? The other thought is that life is starting to emerge there again. First come the plants, then the plant eaters, then the plant eater eaters. So as things again started to grow, animals would naturally migrate back. Of course I like the first thought…

>Old Video Games

>I’m collecting old PC games. I’ve been collecting them for some time, but each time I do a major hardware upgrade, or come upon games I forgot about – I like to pop them in and see what used to pass for “good”. Over the past couple weeks I’ve tried the following:Metal Gear Solid 2Wing Commander ProphecyStart Trek: Next Generation – New WorldsSacrificeMech Commander 4 – Black KnightsTrue Crime I’m still installing True Crime. 4 CDs of waiting. Console games play right off the disk, but since all consoles have predicible read speed – they can do that.Metal Gear Solid…
