Welcoming Party

Not only is this my first major post in nearly two weeks, but it's also my 200th post. I recall hitting the 100 mark back in the winter of this year. Here comes 300, eh?

Where to start?

Girls? Work? Games? How about... school.

My online class is killing me. Two essays, two discussion boards, and a group discussion are due every week, which doesn't sound like much until you add in my 8 to 4:30 shifts at Meijer four days a week that take me away from the class a lot. Just look at how many posts are in this blog in the past three weeks.... I rest my case.

Next up: work: Meijer sucks.

Third: Games: Hurray!!! I've rediscovered the fine art of gaming. Not necessarily the beauty of games or the stories some provide... but the art of five-hour Oblivion sessions, blowing through Half-Life 1, and kicking ass on Day of Defeat (and Sourse). I can get lost in the perfect fantasy world of Oblivion, tear-up at the longing memories from Black Mesa, and still scream like a little girl when I make that perfect headshot in Day of Defeat.

Next up? I'll be returning to ZSNES (Super Mario RPG, anyone?) one last time before I consider putting it to rest until the Wii hits this year... we all know the big games from the SNES days will be on the Virtual Console...

And that leaves girls...

I wish I could say something about girls. Right now there is so much on my mind... too much, in fact. I can't even organize it into logical thoughts. I like Lacey (duh!), I'm tired of her thinking men suck (double duh), and I want to be happy without faking it... it's not easy...

I think I'm taking some time off soon...
