Two Days Off

It's been far too long a week. I've got two days off work now and by God I need them. Absolutely shattered.

The events of the past week or so have just sort of drifted by. I decided to cancel my PC subscription to Final Fantasy XI, then buy it for the 360 minutes later. It looks to be a lot better, despite being almost exactly the same. This is not to be questioned.

I bought a PC for my brother David. It was from a company recommended by my friend Dante, who I'm sure I've mentioned before. Cost about £450 or so, of which he's paying about £380, the rest being from me as an early birthday present. He's managed to pay quite a bit of it so far, which is impressive. It should be here within the next week or two - I'll be sure to post pictures of the machine when it arrives.

After a lot of procrastination, I hoovered my room. I can now walk around barefoot without accumulating... well, mostly more of me. Old bits of me, like hair and whatnot. It gets everywhere. I realise that none of you wanted to know that, but you don't exist, so be quiet. I also bought Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training for the DS, and have subsequently become semi-addicted to Sudoku. I'd managed to avoid the whole game for so long, too. Now I can't get enough of it.

Been trying EVE again; might even get a subscription this time, although it's seeming less likely now. This is linked to me playing WoW a lot more, with the 2.1 patch bringing some nice new changes. I might spec back to being a Resto Druid from my current Feral build, but only after I've done a lot more quests. Being a healer and trying to grind just don't mix well when you solo a lot. Oh, and I really need to play some more LOTRO. It's sort of lost some of the "shiny new MMO" value and is fast becoming simply mediocre in my eyes. I hope to hell that I find a second wind for it - I'd really like to like it.

In other news, Dante, Jaszon and I should hopefully be getting together for some more LAN Gaming sometime soon. Dante is getting home from Uni in a couple of days, and I shall convince them both that they like C&C3 more than BFME2. Might be able to play some WoW there as well, get my Horde Hunter alt through a couple of dungeons. And of course, I have two days off! Followed by a short stint of work, then more days off!

For the next two days, mornings are what I stay up until the early hours of, not what I get up in.

And after that has come to pass you'll grow little wings (about 1 inch by 2 each) and fly alllll de way to the moon. then have a skewered rat BBQ.

+ LOTRO is merely mediocre. I thought I'd told you that already.

LOTRO will get better, I'm sure of it. But you will play C&C3. You just don't know it yet.

[Insert evil laugh here]
