I really should get out... less...

It's been a month?  Wow.  Guess I've been having too much fun with my tax return.  :)  I went a little overboard with my purchases.  Let's see.  I went clothes shopping with my cousins on one of their birthdays... and actually had fun.  I've increased my game stock... again.  Hmmmm, what else?  Been too lazy to go to the grocery store, so I've been eating out.  ...and at this current moment in time, I have a giggling 5 year-old leaning over my laptop that is extremely fascinated with the blue touchpoint mouse.  ;)

OK, all that's over.  Everything's been a little nutters (my new fav word - from the Harry Potter series).  Work has just been absolutely swamped.  I'm now in charge of all internal network and security auditing and scanning.  I've always wanted to do network security.  Now?  Not so much.  It's depressing.  All you do is spend all day finding out what's wrong with your environment, then you have to tell everyone else how to fix it.  I definately won't be considering this as a future full time option anymore.  Needless to say, I've just managed to start catching up on the last 3 weeks worth of work today.  I'm hoping to be pretty close by Friday.

Either way, I'm taking vacation during Spring Break.  1. It begins St. Pattie's Day.  2. I'm in dire need for some warm weather.  3. My sanity is becoming very brittle.  Funny thing is, my boss actually noticed it this time around.

So, what is happening in the gaming world?  I know they say, "third time's a charm", but I gave up on the Halo Beta.  Didn't feel like buying a game I didn't know much about.  Instead, I'm back on my Final Fantasy kick.  I started playing Dirge of Cerebus.  Neat little storyline.  Always wanted to know more about Vincent's past.  FF XII is progressing nicely.  Slowly, but nicely.  I finished up Lost Planet.  I so totally got my dad hooked on Gears of War.  That was hilarious.  He's now calling me, "What was the name of that game, again?"  "When's the next time you're coming down?  Can you bring the 360 with you?"  :D  LOL!  Oh, and I've upgraded to HD, finally.  Let me tell you... it makes a WHOLE world of difference.

My train of thought has now jumped tracks as I'm trying to watch Jericho (not like I need another new show to watch).  Well, I now have DVR, too, so I've become one of those ppl.  ;)  At least I get to watch my Adult Swim, again.  Oh, one last thought.  Target movies and dvds for the spring and summer:

• Casino Royale (now)
• Bridge to Terabithia (now)
• 300 (now)
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (3/23)
• Meet the Robinsons (3/30)
• .hack//ROOTS (4/3)
• Spiderman 3 (5/4)
• Pirates of the Carribean 3 (5/25)
• Paprika (5/25)
• Knocked Up (6/1)
• Ocean's 13 (6/8)
• Fantastic Four 2 (6/15)
• Nancy Drew (6/15)
• DOA: Dead or Alive (6/22)
• Transformers (7/4)
• Harry Potter 5 (7/13)
• The Simpsons Movie (7/27)
• The Bourne Ultimatum (8/3)
• Resident Evil: Extinction (9/21)
• The Eye (10/12)

I'll do a gamer's wish list next post.
