Deadlines

Sometimes, it's amazing the amount of focus that an absolute deadline can bring to work and life in general. As the date for surgery approaches, every action and thought seems to be clear and concise. All pointed to the singular goal of accomplishing what must be done before the absolute deadline. On one hand it's pretty cool how much work is getting done, but on the other it seems to be very tiring, at least so far.

The bright side, during recovery my physical activity will be limited. That means my gaming activity will probably be maximized.



P.S. It might be coincidental that Halo 3 comes out during my recovery time.


Rather than double blog, I'll just edit. Big project complete with hours to spare, awesome.

Crap Happens

Let me preface this by saying the last couple weeks have been some of the worst of my life.

Anyway, after playing some RB6 with Kitten and others, I start experiencing major ab pains. Nothing, just gas. Wrong a couple of hours later in the ER they tell me I've got gall stones. Not cool. Surgery will be required to remove the gall bladder and said stones. So not cool.

The fact that I got health insurance about 6 months ago, priceless.

Thank you God.


On the flip side, the happy part of my life. My church has started an AWANA program for kids on Wednesday night. My small part is as a recreation helper, and the first night went better than could be expected(no injuries and the kids enjoyed themselves). While the surgery will knock me out of commission for awhile, I can still look forward to helping out once the recovery process ends.

Also during recovery time, when I'm not allowed to play softball or basketball, my gaming time will be substantially increased.

My Fast

Allright call me an idiot, but I guess a truly am a VW person. I took my insurance money and went straight to the nearest good VW dealer to find another one as fast as my VR6. The only standard on the premises, a 2007 GTI. I thought what the heck, I''ll try the test drive. I was pleasantly surprised, no expected turbo lag. Some haggling later, and I have my own set of wheels again.
It's just stock now, but after a little time to save up. It will get customized. Still debating if I should go out for vanity tags, I'm not sure if that would be a little to pompous.

R.I.P. Jetta

I got rearended yesterday. It happened just like the VW commercIals. My friend and I were just talking, we had to stop for halted traffic in the road, and then pow, we're hanging onto whatever we could grab. He hit us hard enough to knock my car across a turn lane and into oncoming traffic. Thank God, the SUV headed my way had already begun drive off to the side of the road to avoid the accident and instead of a head on collision, we just rubbed along the side of the SUV. Nobody was seriously hurt, my friend and I are sore, and the car will probably be scrapped. Lots of fun here.



Just a reminder, ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEATBELT.

Apparently I have a blog

Hey, I have a blog.

That's about it.

My GT is Onesimos and I play mostly tactical shooters and RPGs.

And I've recently joined 2Old4Tactics.

And that's all I've got to say about that.
