A Skyrim based post

Up by Dawn star when 2 elder dragons and an ancient dragon all start attacking me. It at this point I remember, despite having done the main quest for a while, that you can summon a dragon. Were having a great big 4 dragon orgy when a giant comes up and attacks me, a frost troll attacks him and my horse attacks the troll while the dragons are coating us all in frost and flames. I love this game.

Also the joy im getting from storming a fort with the imperial legion with my dragon, horse and ghost assassin is probably not appropriate. :Oops:

Just heard about this awesome indie adventure game called Dear Esther and it's released as of Feb 14th. Obviously, I'll be busy playing the ME3 demo that day but once that's done I have every intention of giving Dear Esther a shot. I've been waiting for The Witness to be released but it has a late 2012 proposed release time so Dear Esther should be able to keep me, along with KOA:R and ME3 happy til then.

(Okay, ME3 is going to keep me happy for much longer than that but I'm trying to limit myself to one gush session a day until it is released XD )

I fucking love flying.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I'm watching a doco on Ice Storms. Damn those things are awesome and terrifying! Liquid rain that is below zero in temp - awesome! Having it fall on your town - scary! Anyone willing to live in Montreal is a goddamn lunatic or has courage to spare!

Also, French Canadain accents are kinda annoying....just saying.

Edit: Perhaps it is scary because it is unfamiliar. Watching one on firestorms now and it isn't as scary to me given i grew up with bushfires. I mean firestorms are scary as hell but at least i'd have experience to fall back on. with an icestorm i'd be working off commonsense only and open to overlook something important.

I love docos! :Oops:

Saw the new Sherlock Holmes movie last night with my sweetie; we had dinner at Ahmets, this fantastic Turkish restaurant in South Bank, and we caught the CityCat ferry home at 10pm, sitting out on the deck in the cool breeze off the river. SO NICE :unsure:

Wait, Exeter England? That's like an hour by train from me! I can visit and grant you the joy of an Illy visit and you and your dude can buy me all the drinks in the world! I CONDONE THIS LIFE CHOICE

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Just got back from a 3 hour walk. Fun stuff. Went westward instead of south or east. Found a nice long linear park along the river. Then on the way back I found a path, that I later learned was incomplete. This lead to a very interesting 10 minutes getting through a highway interchange (exits, on-ramps, general road confusion) system on foot running from safe spot to safe spot. Luckily there wasn't much traffic at this time of day and it was off the main highway.
Good time all around.

NEW. LAPTOP.

WITH HINGES THAT ACTUALLY WORK. AND ZOMG THE SIZE OF THE SCREEN!!!!!!!!!!!! 15" after 11" for the past two years is like going to freaking 24". XD And it's glorious, proper high-def.

Downsides: getting all my old stuff (namely, lots and lots of media content) onto the new laptop. Even with USB3.0, it's gonna be a long while. :S
