I woke up this morning with a stiff neck, sore back, and generally not well rested. I quickly realized I was no longer sleeping on my pillow but rather a bunched up section of comforter. I popped my head up and discovered why I was in such a state of discomfort…

My pillow not yours

Thanks buddy!

Today I had hoped to finally mow the overgrown jungle that is my backyard, but yet again Mother Nature drops another night of rain on us and keeps the swampland from drying out. I’m getting sick of this shit and that’s putting it lightly. If we don’t get a solid few days of rain soon I’m going to have to buy a scythe, maybe even a combine to cut this grass. Its so long Tito has to hop around back there when we let him out, and to be honest I’m afraid we’re going to lose him soon.

Guess I’ll loaf around today.. play some MAG, maybe watch some World Cup on mute (because those vuvuzelas are @(#)$*& annoying)

Apparently we have a monsoon season in Iowa now. Who knew.

Thanks to the overabundance of rain, I’ve been able to pick up MAG once again. I even got Ulmer back into the swing of things. Picked up a new USB headset that I finally like but the cord was far too short.. yay for NewEgg right!

I’ve also stumbled upon Battle for Wesnoth, a completely free RPG that is platform independent. I’ve only played through the tutorial and a few missions, but this game already has me hooked. Check it out, and if you want to get a multiplayer game going just let me know! My server can handle up to 4 people at once.

I’ve finished up my review for Fallout 3, well as far as I’ve got in the game. I really have enjoyed it so far and I’m probably only 25% through it.

GameSpot released their yearly video game awards, and Demon’s Souls cleaned house!!

2009 RPG of the Year
2009 Best PS3 Game of the Year
and..

2009 Best Game of the Year!!!!!!! Yeah baby!

If you haven’t picked up your copy yet, quit hating yourself. Don’t rent it, don’t borrow it, OWN this game. You will not regret it.

This gives a great view of the game and a good overall explanation of what this bad boy is all about. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s looking for that bust-your-balls kinda game. Its got me hooked.

Oh, and I’m on Jury Duty this week so juggling that along with a massive project delivery this Friday means few updates this week to ze blog.
