That was an AWESOME National Championship.

[worry]

I went and saw The Book of Mormon last night. Gotta say, all the hype is entirely warranted. Extremely entertaining start to finish.

I may or may not have just finished 18 straight hours of BioShock 2 and Bioshock: Infinit.

Fuck me those were good stories. At some point in Bioshock one I killed a protagonist while thinking " That's for hurting my daughter you son of a bitch" ...
Also, I was familiar with the main concept of the Infinite (Come on, that's like first grade sci-fi) but it was implemented so well here that it still fucked with my mind. Poor Booker.

Overall, I think I'm getting withdrawal like you would when you finish a good series.

Man I especially love Infinite - one of my all time favourite games!

I have it on 360 but never played it. I was a little put off by how underwhelming BS1 was. Is Infinite worth a go-through then?

Hmm you may not like it if you didn't like BS1 but I think it is better then that. Visually it is stunning and the world is so different compared to the underwater one... If it was the gameplay you didn't like then I'm not sure it will be different enough to make you like it again...

It's not that I didn't like BS. It was decent, just not earth-shatteringly good. The lack of SHODAN was a factor.

Things worked out with that girl it looks like. She apologised for the way she acted and has since been much more relaxed about my friends. I guess she realised there was nothing to worry about. At any rate, it looks like maybe I have a sort of relationship.

Just remember the BBC Morgy

Dammit. I agreed to spend another 2 x 28 days here in the rehab. The bastards keep teaching me things I need to know.

Goes in the happy thread because if I didn't need it, I wouldn't be here. I try to repeat that to myself as often as possible.

Is there a pool?

Start one. Please.




We'll split the winnings when I give you the correct day.

Not funny. I'm posting from a Gamblers Anonymous meeting right now. We're taking a break so everyone can check today's scores.

Twelve month review for my op went fine! (OK, so it's been sixteen months, but who's counting?)

Have to have a two year review because of the type of benign tumour (some sort of rare weird one that can reoccur, though it's still unlikely) and an MRI scan just to double check everything - but presuming the scan is fine, I get discharged next year!

That is lovely news! Hope everything goes just as well at the next checkup!

Fuck that's funny. I almost spit diet caffeine free ginger ale onto the monitor.

Considering showing that to my counselor but they'd probably take my internetz privileges away for a week.

For those that may be interested, my work was featured on BBC 1's The One show on Wednesday night - http://www.bbc.co.uk...rammes/p03q63s8

[QuickTidal]

M83 dropped the follow up album to 2011's Hurry Up, We're Dreaming today!

Oh man! So excited!

EDIT: Holy crap, there's a new DEFTONES album out today too?

My wallet.

EDIT2: ....and ALL SAINTS? Wait...ALL SAINTS are still together? The hell?

Forget those bands QT, 65daysofstatic announced the launch of their No Man's Sky album (as in the upcoming space game)! I love this band so freaking much and I can't wait for the album (as well as the game!) Furthermore, Haken's new album is less than a month away!

Also making me happy is I have sorted out and uploaded my Iceland photo's again. Such a stunning country. Though I am annoyed I know nothing about white balance and had the camera on the wrong settings for a while...

I should note, I have no interest in buying an All Saints album...I just noted that they brought a new one out and I had no idea they were even still a band.

But Deftones and M83 I'm all over.

I shall look into this No Man's Sky album of which you speak. Thanks for the recco

[worry]

Yeah I'm excited. There have been three preview tracks released for the deftones album, and all have been great. They are doing a lot of fantastic things melodically, especially with Chino's vocals. It's crazy this band isn't just still so exceptional at what they do, but still evolving.

[Mentalist]

Not only have I survived to the weekend, but I'm also done the work that's due Monday already. Not quite on top of my to-do list (it's enormous and growing), but at least not falling too fa behind, and keeping on top of deadlines.

Plus I get to go home on time, and tonight's one of the days I swim.

If you don't know 65dos I'd be interested in what you think of them. The NMS album won't be out till near the release of the game but they have a bunch of other albums out.
