That's me. I really like zombie stuff, pretty much every type of video game, drawing things (It's been like six months), play music in a band, and am a geek. Very much so, in fact. Also, I drew the Maxx that I'm using in my header. It's going to stay there until I hit some inspiration for some video game artwork.

My job is to make the computers and electronics at my work rise again from the dead. It's alright, as jobs go. Of course, since I'm heavily into computers, I either have or have had every major type of personal computer known to man... so if you ever want to discuss computer things, I can probably have a lengthy conversation about it.

I live in the mostly sunny Central Florida, and have for about 16 years now. I'm pretty sure I'm too old to be playing games anymore, but I really don't see that ending any time soon and hope it never will.

I have a gaming PC (C2D E6550 2.33Ghz/8800GTS 512), PS2, Dreamcast, N64, DS, PSP, Xbox 360 and PS3, but I have owned an Odyssey2, Aquarius, ColecoVision, NES, SNES, Genesis, GameBoy (as well as Advance and SP), PS1, Xbox, and a Wii as well. They've all either been broken, sold, or have been grudgingly traded in for the "next best thing" due to lack of funds to buy them outright.

I read fanatically, and even though I have plenty of different books there are several that are read over and over again. Pretty much anything that William Gibson or Terry Pratchett have done are my favorites, but there are plenty of writers that still get my attention. To be certain, I'm happy Rhianna Pratchett is writing for videogames.

Pointless blog: Waiting at Gamestop for Lich King. [Updated w/ a few pics]

Possibly the pinnacle of sadness, I'm currently waiting in line for Lich King to come out and it's not even for me. I told my girl that I would get it for her, and am currently keeping that promise. However, it's pretty funny that she is the only female at this particular release.

[edit]
Even though I didn't really want to go, I still had to make sure that people knew where my home away from games was:

Also... so far, we've been given T-Shirts, stupid scarves that have nothing about WoW on them, and effing bookmarks. Also, there are three children next to us in line calling the Eee PC a DVD player. Geez. More pointless updates soon.

Argh.

[11:30pm]

Wow... whole bunch of people just showed up. Glad we got here somewhat early (7th in line) so I can go home and play more Dead Space sooner rather than later.



Yep... all the way down the strip mall. And I thought no one lived in Orlando.

[11:55pm]

Some dude showed up as an undead, and killed my girl. Will post pic later. Only cool thing tonight.

Thank god it's all over. What a pointless thing to do. Never again... at least until it's something I really want, of course.

[12:35am]

Ahh... back home. Updated the pics and stuff, and am about to start up Dead Space again. I'm really effing enjoying it. Definitely good atmosphere. Thank you for looking at this absolutely boring and pointless thing.

I'm out.

You're telling me? When my friend's roommate isn't actually working, blogging, eating, or sleeping... WoW. My roommate is a shade better in that she actually likes to go and do stuff, you know? But the WoW is always beckoning, as she tells it.
