Puppy Time!!



So my puppy is totally looking at me and saying, "Why are you over there when I am so cute and lonely over here?!" Thus, this will be the last blog of 2010 and practically one of my last blogs ever, seeing as how my 365 days of blogging will be slowly coming to an end around the end of January.

While the content of my blogs have sometimes been lacking and generally not up to snuff with some of my better posts, I can't help but say that blogging, even about the most benign things, such as getting a scratched up disc of Glee or the many, many blogs of me being emotional and ranting, has caused some growth. I'm sorry that sentence ended shitty, but it was getting too long and my brain couldn't handle it anymore.

My whole goal for this blog, besides the fact I wanted to see if I could blog something for 365 days, was to chronicle my life and possibly use it as a learning experience.

New chapters and events are always happening in our lives, and just because you might not start directly on January 1st or maybe you don't make a change until the month of December, there will always be room for personal growth. Despite this year being rocky at times and awesome at others, I have changed for better or for worse. Not quite sure which one, but all I know is that I have high expectations for 2011. It can only get better from here! =]

DIGRESSION: I tried playing Mass Effect - I created my own character and everything. She partially looked like me, but that's another story. I got a lot further than my dad did in the game and flailed as far as controls go. The disarming of the bombs part? Yeah, at one point I literally flung my body towards the geth shooting me, because during stressful situations, I tend to forget what the buttons/joy sticks do. The poor pup, Tito, had to listen to me scream during that section as well as screaming when the husks were chasing me. Thank God my team mates manage to cover my sorry ass, because I'd be dead within minutes.

Unbeknownst to me, by starting this file, I completely erased my father's game. Thankfully due to my high IQ and irrational paranoia to make sure everything is the way I've left it, I checked to verify that his game was there. I reeled as I discovered that not only was his game terminated, but that I'd also have to play through the levels to reach where he left off. Surprisingly though, during that 2nd play through as the newly created Dave Shepherd, I wasn't comprised of too much suckage. This might be due to the fact the character looked nothing like me or maybe because in comparison to the husks, fighting those stupid recon bots is easy peasy lemon squeezy. Regardless, I got him to his area where he last saved and also managed to watch those last 12 minutes of Glee, so I'm completely and mentally prepared for when season 2 picks up again, which it better or there will be violence.
