No, I have not forgotten the writing meme from a couple of weeks back. I just haven't had much inspiration lately. Inspiration is slowly starting to build up, and I should have some results soon. I hope.

For the past nine days, I have been mostly good when it comes to Coca-Cola. Not once did I let a single drop of regular Coke pass my lips. It was Coke Zero for me all the way... at least, until yesterday. Yesterday, due to being dog-tired, I went back to plain old regular Coca Cola, for both the caffeine and the sugar boost.
After a while I just couldn't drink it anymore. It just tasted too damn strange and acidic.
Progress!
Still, I shudder to think of what yesterday's indiscretions will do to my efforts to get (Wii) fit.

Rhythm Boxing in Wii Fit is very fun. The snowboard slalom challenge, unfortunately, is not as fun as I thought it would be. I guess I still need to get used to it.

After thinking about it for something like three months, I finally went and got an XBox 360. Back when it first came out, I thought that I might get one, but that I should put it off for a while, until there were enough games I wanted for it.
On the weekend I finally stopped putting it off and got an XBox 360 Pro and a bunch of games I've been wanting to get. For a $550 console and games that usually cost around $100, I managed to snag the whole bundle for a shade under $800.
I do have GTA4, but only because the GTA4 + XBox360 pack was $530. In effect, they were *giving* me money to get GTA4. I can't say no to that, even if I'm not interested in GTA4. I'll try it sometime when I can be bothered. And then, most likely, be sucked in horribly.
Thanks to being XBox 360-enabled, I have finally played Portal. It is just as awesome as everyone has been saying, and I finally have context for all the Portal quotes I keep on hearing. |
