So yeah, I started playing WoW again. It always happens right around Blizzcon. Blizzcon makes me weak. Reminds me of what I like about WoW. It usually lasts a couple of weeks. Then I’ll get burned out and go back to playing 360, or DS.
Same thing happens around Halloween (yeah my favorite holiday.. Me & every other nerd/goth/emo/timburtonlovingperson)
The Undercity & the surrounding zones have a wonderful Halloweenie atmosphere.
The thing is, I really like the art & lore of WoW even though it’s pretty cheese fantasy. Then there is that feeling of running an instance with a good group of friends having a good time regardless of how many times you wipe.
That said, There are parts of WoW I hate as well. The crazy feeling of obligation to get better gear for you toon…. Weird guild politics. Weird social interactions (I’m apparently as socially retarded over the web as I am in person. Yay!!)
Anyway, so I’m back to playing WoW for a little bit.

Uh yeah, so right it’s been a while. Went to tumblr for a bit, it was ok, but full of too many cool kids. I’m not really a cool kid and I just wanted to write some thoughts down from the weekly commute (although I do have a whole ‘nother day. Well and then the big commute back to the ICT. This weekend is the baby shower so Em will prolly be pretty busy, but it’ll still be good to see her. Anyways.. so my thoughts.
A.) I really like Black Light Burns. Its one of those bands I “shouldn’t” like…

So I’m currently working my way through Chrono Trigger for the 3rd time. First time after the original release on the SNES. Second time, after I re-purchased an SNES and bought a copy of Chrono Trigger off of ebay for $75 (yeah you read that right.. I lost my original cart when I loaned it to a friend whose house got nailed by a tornado). Now the third time on the DS. I never did play through the PS1 rerelease with all of the added in movies. Thankfully (or not.. I’m not really sold on the movies), the DS version includes the FMVs.
I’m also about halfway through Gears of War 2, and Braid, and I need to finish up the Achievements on Rez (yes, I’m a whore).
Speaking of Rez, man I love the music on that game. I haven’t gone looking for it, but I’d love to find all of those tracks. Reminds me of playing Wipeout XL back in the day. Kinda got me into the whole Electronic/Dance/Techno/IDM stuff.. anyway, side tracked.
And to top it off I bought the 2nd Penny Arcade game. I devoured the first game. Absolutely loved it. Anyway.
And on top of all of that, I need to find a friggin’ job and brush up on my C# skills (heres, to not listening to anyone and learning ASP.NET using VB DERRR!!). Too bad Classic .ASP is out the window. I can VBscript like a fiend!!
