I haven't been on this site in a while and It has changed quite a bit -- for the better!
I hope to be able to contribute to this blog a bit more again. I have been going through quite a bit of change! It all started when my boyfriend of five years and I called It quits. This was a person I did tons of gaming and was comfortable with being a GAMER with. Yes, many of my friends don't game and god forbid I mention I game at work -- I'm sure to get a few puzzled looks from co-workers.
Most of my friends that are as passionate about gaming as I am, I have met online or on XBL. You would think, I would make some NYC gaming buddies, but I have not. Shortly after, I took a trip out to WA with a friend to visit some friends. On my seven day stay, most of our activities involved hangout and gaming -- and It was totally ok! You are most likely to say " you gamed with friends, so?" Most of my friends here would totally dismiss any idea of gaming and roll their eyes at me coupled with "you geek". So being in that environment was amazing.
Although I had settled on the idea to move to WA, this defiantly sealed the deal. Upon my return, I started to make all the plans for the move. Now, that move is only SIX days away! It is quite scary and exciting at the same time. I'm super excited I get to be neighbor with my good friends and have an amazing roommate, but also scared because I don't have a job, nor do I know how to drive! Being a city girl, I am totally dependent of my Subway system! *sigh*
The odd thing about all this is that I have BARELY touched my Xbox 360. I have been craving some MMORPG's. Sadly im on MAC so all the ones I would like to play again ( Ragnarok Online, Maple Story, Guildwars) are out of the question. My only option right now is: Starcraft, W.O.W and Second Life (if you can even consider that gaming). Does anyone know any MMORPGS for MAC?
Well, enough of my random ramblings. I'm off!

Yeah alot of Macintosh products fly under most people's radar. Glad I could help sage!
As for MMORPGs on the Mac, there's a free one called Oberin out there that's not the best graphically, but it's still pretty fun.
And starcraft, and warcraft, but WoW...its no joke, that shit gets people addicted, lots of people fail out of college because of it.
It's really not as addicting as some say. You just need to have self-imposed limitations. I don't allow myself to get addicted, due to work and college. If you just keep your real-life priorities above Karazhan and Arena, you'll be fine. :)
Sorry about your mate, pinksage. Hopefully you'll be lucky in your new digs. Now marry me. No, really.
End of story :P
Also, learning to drive sucks, but driving is the best.
Well, provided you don't mind ignoring a few... well okay pretty much every speed limit sign.
170 through canyon roads anyone?
