A lot of nothing keeping me busy.

Wow. It's been a week since I made an entry. I'd like to say that, "I have just been busy as hell" and "one thing led to another..." and "I couldn't find the time" and "I'm taking one game at a time". But all that would be verbal diarrhea and untrue. So here is the mundane of my last week (there wasn't any excitement):

Last Wednesday:
Work, bought Far Cry with the gift certificate my brother gave me last fall at EB Games and commenced playing. Watched (sort of between gaming deaths) NBA playoffs. Bed.

Thursday: Work. Played basketball. Leafs update. Far Cry. Bed.

Friday: Work. Told it was my last day until they can get a plan in place as to what direction I.T. is going to go. Got paid. Car "brake system warning light" comes on. Make car appointment for Monday. Boss asks me to come back in on Monday to "finish up" some last minute things he threw at me to do. Told him it would have to be Tuesday due to uncertainty of car. He was cool with that. Got home and watched the Celtics take a beating. Decided at that moment to jump on the Indiana bandwagon for the same reason I jumped on the Celtic bandwagon in 1979...Larry Bird. Watched the Lakers go down to Houston. Much rejoicing (I admire the Lakers but I CAN'T EVER like them - see NBA History Celtics vs Lakers). Far Cry. Bed.

Weekend: A blur of children going to sleepovers and swim meets. Leafs. Basketball. Playoffs rock! Far Cry. Watched Rundown and Timeline on DVD.

Monday: Car appointment. Need brakes (duh). Need to return next week when parts arrive and will cost $1000+. Watched Kill Bill volume 1. It is way cool even though I am not a Tarantino fan. If you like the old Chinese/English dubbed kung-fu movies you have to see this. The movie is over-the-top but is done in the style of the old kung-fu movies.

Today: Work. Really done.

So that's it. Exciting, eh? Well I warned you it was a lot of nothing. By the way, Far Cry is awesome. It is kicking my ass but I keep coming back for more. That's the sign of a good game.
