Last Day On Earth?

If those pesky science geeks end up making a mini black hole tomorrow then today was my last one. Not surprisingly it was a lot like most of my days..

Played some Mass Effect and Disgaea 3. Cleaned the spare room while watching Mad Men and a Code Monkey. I really need to get my shit organized and make some where shit goes plans...

Nine Months Later...

And I finally have a game I want for the PS3. Picked up Disgaea 3 today. I really enjoyed the first two on the PS2 and had been looking forward to this release but had not been paying attention to the release date. So when I found one copy at Best Buy today I could not resist. I did save the reciept if it is needed... I am only about 20 minutes in to the game but I am slightly disapointed in the look of the game. I have not found anything in the game that could not have been done on the PS2. That being said the humor and gameplay seem to be intact so I really have nothing to complain about.

Played some Mass Effect. Hit a wall and was able to get around it. The combat has been very easy for the last couple of hours so I was kind of surprised when the difficulty jumped up. It took me a couple attempts but I was able to get past the trap and had fun doing it.

Watched Psych and Terminator: SCC. Also watched an episode of Exo Squad from the DVD set I picked up in Atlanta. The first episode is kind of disjointed but it still stands up better then a lot of my old favorites.

Started the 100 pushup challenge again. My previous attemt was interupted by cons, sars and work...

I swear this is not Tom's Blog

Got up this morning and found this on the patio at my parents place.

After breakfast and conversation, we headed to White Samon/Bingem to see where my mom works. Afterwards we went to the Huckelberry Festival. I was disapointed in the lack of Huckelberries at their own festival. Just one booth with Pie and T-shirts. We went across the way to Solstace Pizza for some really good pizza with salmon and Sour Creame. Was much better than it sounds. Stopped at Dickey's fruit stand to get some Peaches for Mom and some Huckelberries for Q.

Headed home while stopping at many Wal-Marts (exclusive Lego set), Targets (JLU figures) and Best Buy (gift for Mom).

Traded Huckelberries for an invite to the Nelson family dinner.

Played some Mass Effect and watched Skins.

Catching up on some trades from the last two weeks...

And the Sky was Full of Stars

Made the long trek to Oregon to spend the weekend with the 'rents.

Things I noticed on the trip:
- The Great Wolf Lodge is new and HUGE. The water slide looks fun.
- Centralia has really boomed West of the freeway. When I lived there there wasn't crap to do one the West side.
- There are a crap load of different Energy Drinks (3 refrigerator cases) for sale but no one carries Barqs.

Spent some time fixing the entertainment components. DVDs now in 5.1 Your welcome Mom.

I have NO cell service at all but they do have a wi-fi connection so I can still send this missive to Blogger. Is strange being disconnected from world, not that anyone ever calls me. :)

Watched Definitely Maybe. A little slow and cutesy but overall a good flick.

More things I forgot to mention... Started Wolverine: Lifeblood on Tuesday. Good story but not tied into continuity at all. It is if Wolverine had never joined the Xmen. Plus he had claws in WWII. Also watched The Perfect Storm on the plane on Wednesday.

Come in to my World

Got up way to early to help in the falling apart plant. Determined that it was not my fault and helped them find the culprit.

Changed the oil in the car.

Played a bunch of Mass Effect.

Cleaned up while watching Eragon (kind of ass) and Stargate Atlantis. In the cleaning I hooked up the cable box again and watched the end of BloodCopy. Now ready to watch Tru Blood.

Spent some time flipping through the onDemand videos to find a really cool one that I saw in Atlanta. Found it and will post on main blog when I get a chance.

Forgot to mention watching the Avengers Next DVD on Tuesday. Some cool stuff but overall I felt it scued a bit young for me... But then I am really old.

Comic Thursday

Sideview of cake from yesterday. Had to head out to a things falling apart call at work...

Comic Thursday :)

Watched Primeval and Mad Men.

Played some Mass Effect.

Just read comics and went to bed early for early am trip to falling apart plant...

Back in the office

First time back in the office in about two weeks and there was cake. Not for me being back but just in general. The awesomeness was that it was shaped like a hamburger and fries.

Non-comic wednesday :(

Watched the first episode of the final season of the Shield and the latest Skins.

Played some Team Fortress II with the guys.
