Slacker

I'm such a slacker. Can't even post on a regular basis to this thing - I get so tied up and forget to record my activities. The problem is that the point of this is to not forget everything else. Wonderful.

The quick hits:

New games: X-Men Legends 2 is excellent, Far Cry: Instincts is fun, and Marvel Nemesis is horrible. I also have recently acquired Ultimate Spidey and Otogi 2, but neither one has been opened yet. I want to try and finish up X-Men soon. I wonder if anyone would be interested in a semi-regular organized session of X-Men to go through the whole game without anyone jumping it forward on their own.

New television: I am horribly behind in my TV watching. I'm annoyed Bones is on a one-month hiatus for baseball - it's easily my favorite new show. Just Legal had a decent first episode, but I'm not sticking with it. I have to actually watch Invasion to decide whether I want to watch it. I caught up with Threshold, and it's holding my interest. Everything else is just saved on my DVR.

New movie: Serenity rocked. Go see it, if you see no other movie this year. Although, Narnia looks like it might capture the LoTR magic in December.

Camping: Last weekend, went camping with the Cub Scouts with my two sons and my father. Other than the rain, it was a fun time. I wish it would stop raining so I can set up the tent to clean and dry it before putting it back in the bag.

Hurricane damage: One year and two months later, a contractor has finally been selected. Supposedly, they were over the house today to start work on the roof, according to the person who told me yesterday of the news. We wait 14 months, and they want to start work with less than 24 hours notice - sheesh. The inside work is going to have to wait. No way are they going to be in my house when nobody else is there, and we need to seriously redistribute the contents of each room being worked on.

Me: Exhausted. More work comes in each day than I can finish. I'm getting swamped. My deliverables are getting later and later. I've got to figure out how to work in some overtime along with everything else going on in life.

Next week: Patti's birthday. I am so unprepared. Dangit.
