Post 166 | Pottermore Reaction

To be completely honest I am kind of relieved that Pottermore is not a MMORPG. I do not think Jo is someone who would permit something like that to happen to her series willingly. The amount of unpredictability that can happen in a world like that is endless, people form their little groups and niche's and some highly inappropriate things will probably happen.

This appears to be a much more controlled and thought out idea for the continuation of Harry Potter.

In addition she has written 18,000 words, and that is only 1/3rd of everything she wants to write so far (www.the-leaky-cauldron.org) and that is basically all I wanted out of this website: more information. I love the world of Harry Potter so much, and I want to read the backstories of as many characters as possible and just suck up as much knowledge as possible.

In short, I am very happy with what Pottermore has been announced to be. Now I just have to get my email to go through.

Post 164 | House M.D.

So after Lost ended there was little to no hope that I would absolutely fall for any other television show. But it has come to that point. I wasn't sure how I would feel about this show at first so I added it to my Netflix cue and after the first disc, I was caught. After the third disc, I bough the whole first season. Now I am trapped in a hole that I will not be getting out of any time soon. What can I say? The show is amazing.

Hugh Laurie does such a great job portraying this guy that it makes me never want to stop watching. Every episode is entertaining and the different characters do different things for me. Some I hate, some I love. Like Foreman. I hate Foreman.

Anyways I just wanted to let you all know that you should watch House M.D. if you need something to watch. Otherwise everything else seems good in life right now. I am pretty sick though so that isn't cool. I've gone from exhaustion to stuffy nose now to terrible cough. NOT FUN. Ok, thanks for reading, see ya on the flip side...

Ok, that did not sound as cool as I was hoping it would.

Post 162 | Eh?

Well it's Friday here at work and thank God it is. This week went by pretty quickly and I am thankful for that, I am also thankful it is the weekend so I get some time to catch up on sleep and spend a little more time with the GF. Working these eight hour days is completely different from last summer when we spent loooads of time together. It is something I am getting used to and adjusting to. It is very similar to when she used to work except now I am the one working and she is the one that gets to lay around and do nothing. But she is trying to get a job, I think... Which is more than I did two summers ago. I don't think she is trying very hard though haha.

Anyways, I felt like writing today so I figured I would give this blog a go. Have I mentioned we are trying to get a Friday live show with comedy bits and topical bits and things like that. It would be fun to do, he my boss just has a lot of other projects he has to finish before we can really get cracking on this. Oh man, I'm getting hungry... Sorry I got distracted my my stomach making loud noises.

So things at work are going well, today is a very quiet day with no appointments for projectors or anything so it is pretty chill. A lot of my days here are "pretty chill." I actually bought Team Fortress 2 so I would have a FPS to play here at work while I was bored, and I am really enjoying it. I am still trying to decide what my favorite class is though... I lean towards Scout and Engineer most at the moment. Well I guess my last game I was a medic because this heavy kept asking for one.

E3 was ok this year. I guess I am looking forward to Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One, Resistance 3, and Uncharted 3 the most out of all of the games. I guess they announced Overstrike as well and that looks pretty kick ass as well. Call me an Insomniac buff, I don't care. I have just always really enjoyed their games from Spyro to now.

Well I think I am going to go get lunch now so as always thanks for reading and if there is anything you want me to talk about comment and let me know!

Post 161 | 161 Lexington

The number 161 I guess is synonymous in my mind with the movie The Terminal. The entire time Victor (Tom Hanks) is stuck in an airport and he just wants to get to this adress. He winds up being stuck there for about a year if I were to guess. It is a really good movie and I highly recommend it. Anyways...

I guess you would say I am incredibly bored at work right now. I just ran two computers to two different conference rooms and now I have nothing to do for the remainder of the day. I have played a few games of StarCraft 2 here in the office a couple of times now and it just doesn't seem like something I should be doing here at work, even though I keep winning which is a good thing considering I haven't played in a long time. Well, I take that back I have won and lost about the same amount of games about 4 each for the past two days.

Other than work things are going well. I am going to try and start writing funny things so we can produce a Friday afternoon funny comedy show here, cause that would be awesome.

I do not know what else to write about. Oh, I passed 1000 page views, that's pretty cool! If you read my blog you should comment on it so I know you are reading it so I don't feel like I am just writing this for no one. That is actually really sad. I just sit here in my corner of the internet and no one reads what I write. I guess that is what a lot of the internet is. People writing and thinking and no one giving a damn. Oh well, that's life, isn't it great? Yeah it is...

Ok, thanks for reading if you are reading!
