When I got home from work tonight I had a message from Laura inviting me to join her and her coworkers at Caesar Martini’s. I gave Jamie a call and we headed over. By the time we arrived, there was a huge line but we thought we’d check the patio for Laura before taking off [...]

Mario Party 8 came out yesterday so I picked it up and had Jamie and Sarah over for a little bit to give it a run. It was pretty fun.

In it, there is this mini-game where you’re shaking a pop bottle as hard as you can for a few seconds to see who can make [...]

I finished the StarCraft campaign tonight. Funny how the graphics look completely fine to me now. When I first started it up I thought they were awful. The gameplay is just so tight that the 2D graphics take a backseat in my mind and I haven’t thought of it, really.

I love the Protoss carriers.
I started [...]

I had never taken one of these political compass tests before, so I thought I would. I recognize that it isn’t perfect or anything but it does work for a good idea of where abouts I’d be.
Apparently I’m a bit of a Leftist-Libertarian. They may be right. I am left handed.
It’s interesting to see Ghandi [...]

Laura and I rented a U-Haul truck this morning. We were there with about 20 other people right as they opened and had to wait while they slowly got themselves organized.
Drove to Toronto, packed and loaded up the rest of her apartment and headed out.

On the way back, we stopped for something to eat at [...]

Laura test drove a Dodge SX 2.0 today. It handled well but didn’t have much to offer in terms of features. Most “features” aren’t a big deal to have but manual locks are just annoying.

Yep, still looks like a Neon.

Lost
Through The Looking Glass
omgwtf are they doing to me on Lost? Suddenly we’re having future flashes? So who was Kate with? Sawyer, or some other random guy? She does seem to need a man to leech onto.
I thought the emotional goodbye to Charlie was over in the last episode. Not quite. *sigh* As much as [...]

StarCraft 2 was announced over the weekend and since then, I’ve been playing StarCraft all week. All kinds of fun, I really missed it. When I first loaded it up I was struck by how dated the graphics looked. Well, it is a nine-year-old game so that’s not surprising. What was surprising was that by [...]

Spent my day off running around doing chores and stuff. It was surprisingly fun in the hot sun. Especially walking back from the beer store with a 28-pack of Blue. After that walk my arms were so tired that holding anything up made them shakey. I must have blended right in with all the crazy [...]

Heroes
How to Stop an Exploding Man
Wow, quite the finale. I heard a number of people were a bit disappointed with it but I thought it was pretty good. It had a pretty neat ending while still leaving all kinds of open ended questions for next season: The man that’s much worse than Sylar? Is Sylar [...]
