Updating?

Hey all, just giving an update ya know--letting you all know Im not dead in a ditch somewhere(thats the one my mother uses on me) Planning a pretty short post this time around, since Im still gathering my thoughts from the economic situation of Capital hill and Wall Street...expect a rambling or Mental Note on that one sometime soon.

*_*

If you are remotely attached to the gaming scene then you will know about Mega Man 9. If you are not aware, Mega Man 9 is the next entry in the fantastic Mega Man series that started on the NES, and has appeared on the SNES, Sony Playstation, Sega Satrun, with an anniversary edition on the Xbox, PS2, and finally the Game Cube.

What makes Mega Man 9 different you ask? Well, the biggest factor is the entire style of the game. Its fashioned after the early 8-bit games that appeared on the NES. Think of the original Mega Man games on that system and you've got the idea. now add really cool 8-bit music to it also and its a blast from the past. Supposedly this game is really hard, all reports from the press claim it goes back to the NES-toughness of the original games. Whats even better? The release date.

This wickedly awesome blast from the 8-bit era is set for release on WiiWare on Monday the 22 of September! *_* it makes me really excited, since Ive already picked up the originals on the Virtual Console for my Wii. Monday. I can't believe its already so close! I cant wait for this one...

tummy rumblings...

oooohh....my tummy is rumbling...I can hear all the loud, squishy noises. Hm...the last time I ate was...right around noon I guess...and its 8 o'clock. I guess I should get something to eat, since there is not much food there, there are plenty of cold liquids; but not much for food. I will be back. I am headed out.

Post number 80!?

Wow...that is a lot of posts! Anyway, I had the pleasure of taking Roo (the stepfamily's dog) out for a walk tonight. X_X it was murder...he has this idea that if he can overpower you, he can lead the way and go where he wants. I had to take the time to prove him otherwise. I will admit he is a powerful dog, I dont know its breed...I wish I knew.

Anyway, he likes to play with his food too. After a while he will nab his food dish and play with it, causing the food to go everywhere. Its a real hassle to clean up, but I am planning on getting him something other than kibble. Since I'm working tomorrow I can pick up some food from where I work and see if he likes it. No harm in trying right? And another strange thing...he eats ice. He will just chomp it down like food, not licking it at all; just munching it down. Really weird...

I dont really have much else to say...so I guess its good night then.

Moved Again!

Yep, as the title so boldly states, I have moved again. No its not the move to California. Not yet. I did manage to get a Twin sided bed which I am sitting on right now...and my feet don't touch the floor XD It makes me feel like a kid. Anyway, I have most of my belongings out of my old place, and I found several book cases for all my video games, Anime, Manga, movies, ect. Lots of stuff Im suprised it all fits in the book shelf I found in their garage.

Anyway enough about that. I have another piece of exciting news, I very early this morning bought my copy of The Forbidden Kingdom on Blue-Ray! It is one of the coolest movies that ever came to Blue-Ray and it is totally worth it. There were lots of other titles there too, like Kill Bill volume 1 & 2 but the Forbidden Kingdom was all I wanted. All righty...now after my long packing day I am headed to get some food.

Chrome!

So I found this spiffy, speedy browser called Chrome. It gives me back all the screen real estate that the other browsers I have used up. Its really fast, I have yet to find a site where I wait for it to load. Did I mention its really, really fast?

I guess I did already....Anyway, Chrome is amazing, and the best part? Its made by Google! Yeah, Google made a web browser! Its still in its Beta form, so its a little buggy here and there, but for the most part, this is a really cool piece of software! I encourage you to try Chrome when it comes out of Beta.

OUCH!

So I was out riding my bike on the trail just a little while ago, enjoying the sunshine and all that good stuff, when suddenly I felt this 'thump' on my neck and it kinda sat there. I reached for it and touched it, realizing it was a bee/hornet/wasp well...I had no idea since I couldn't see it and it stung me! Right on my neck! It hurts like crazy! This is the very first time I've ever been stung by anything mind you, but I never expected it to happen on my neck!

The slight swelling has gone away and all there is left is the twinges of pain and the redness. Since I've never been stung before, I don't know if I will get a severe reaction to it, but I'm hoping for the best. Geh...I can feel the reactions around the skin; it grosses me out. Its a good thing I looked up how to deal with this previously on the Internet!
