August 20th, 2013

For those who don’t know, my birthday was yesterday.  I turned the ripe old age of thirty-eight.  In some cultures, I would be considered..I don’t know…dead.  No, but seriously, it was a very odd birthday.  I did have a pretty decent day at work but I came home to the usual, some lonely walls and a couple of cats.  I can’t even say I had a memorable dinner, or much of one at all.  This should not be a blog that is filled with too much dread, we will keep this semi-light hearted and have the occasional sarcastic one-liners.

It is a couple of hours before the midnight hour and for some reason despite writing 3 reviews (2 of them published up on Upcomingdiscs.com, 1 scheduled for next week) and having one more to write tomorrow, I still do not feel like that is enough.  This blog is going to be similar to the one I wrote about a month ago.  Basically a personal one where I just spill out words on a page.  No video game highlights (all I am doing is playing a game called Crackdown which I am about 2/3rds through the main story), no movies (my reviews are up, but I did watch Mud which was actually quite good), just me.  Enter at your own risk.  Continue reading “August 10th, 2013”

It has been a solid two weeks.  As you might have guessed by my last blog post, I am not in the best of mood these days.  Dealing with my personal life has left me flat a bit but we know what they say about what doesn’t kill you, don’t we?  “Yeah, we should have used a shovel?”  Now, that’s not very nice.  But highly appropriate.  Well, this week’s blog is going to be a little more of what I have traditionally put up here.  However, I might be lying if it did not include some random one-off comments about the inevitable.  Okay, I’ll try to keep those to the minimum.

In the immortal words of Led Zeppelin, it’s been a long time since I rock and rolled.  There is one huge reason for this which I will shortly explain inside this blog post.  Sadly, it’s not laziness or even because I was trying to complete some game.  Work is not even all that bad, except for the fact it has become very frustrating and hard to focus on because of the other thing.  Before we step into this post, let me just say Life…is a very strange beast and deep down I don’t think I will ever figure it out.  My only hope is that we at least reach a compromise.  Continue reading “July 14th, 2013”

First Impressions On: Lego-Lord of the Rings (Xbox 360)

This weekend I started to play the Lego game, Lord of the Rings for the Xbox 360.  Since I have not done a blog for a couple of weeks, I thought I would change it up and give something resembling a review (of sorts) of this game.  True, it is six months old, but its finally reached budget status which I know is important to a lot of gamers on limited funds.  So let’s take a look, shall we?  Continue reading “First Impressions On: Lego-Lord of the Rings (Xbox 360)”

Well, that was perhaps one Memorial Day weekend that minus a couple of incidents, I would be best served if I slept completely through it and woke up this morning.  If you look at the complete body of work, it was not that bad, really.  But it had its share of ups, downs, satisfactions and frustrations to last me this month and next.  At this point, I could really go for a very quiet June.  Continue reading “May 28th, 2013”
