A Gamer Geek's Cogitations, Conjectures and other Cortical Experiences

Just An Update

I have been doing a lot of movie reviews lately so this time I thought I would post some actual current events; though I’m fairly confident there are not many people who visit and read my blog – perhaps I need to find something more interesting to post more often.

At any rate, work is really busy; so busy in fact that I had a migraine Tuesday after work from the amount of effort spent working though a major piece of functionality. Now that spring has arrived, yard work is now in full swing. Beth and I have many plans for the outside of the house; it seems the landscaping exposure I had as a  youth is paying off. It’s amazing what pieces of minutia stick around in your head from so long ago.

We have a standing water issue in the backyard so we picked up a weeping willow for a great price from Lowe’s. Weeping willows need moist soil to grow so it should do well in the backyard … and potentially assist in solving our standing water issue.

I re-activated my Steam account hoping to find some cool, free, games – my boss told me that Steam is a great place to pick up free or cheap games. I had no idea that is what Steam has evolved into; I remember back when I use to play Half-Life 2 and had to create a Steam account – I thought it was just for additional security. As part of activating my Steam account I think I might dig up the ole Half-Life disks and reminisce one day. I am still dedicated to killing Arthas though in World of Warcraft; sometimes you just need something different to disrupt the monotony.

Cheers.

  1. Locutus-

    I remember playing half life online, that was a million years ago, we should set up a line some night and kick each others @$$.

  2. I have been unsuccessful in finding my Half Life disks, though we are in the process of redoing the flooring in our basement, which is where we will ultimately set up our full geek command center. Since there are boxes down there, going through them will be a post-mordum activity and hopefully I will find them.
