Wave hi, thank you very much. I know that for the majority of the last month I really didn't do much to earn some of your devoted readership. I was flaky, I wasn't here, I would bounce in and out(hell I would look at my blog go meh and veg, okay and yes some porn was watched), I wouldn't finish blogs. And yet lo and behold every time there was a new update, I got visits. Not only the type of visits that are counted in dear old blogger/blogspot land but also the types of hits that are counted in my google analytics account. Some of you have even subscribed to my RSS feed(awesome), and I really don't deserve you because I've been a major tool, I'm talking sawzaw/jack hammer tool.
Plus as I have often mentioned unlike most writers(and if my lovely wife starts a blog she will be getting all types of Promo's on here YAAAY baby, what she's my wife I can't like for her to get attention and feel like the bomb. I think she's awesome, plus you know she's a great person she stays married to me, Sainthood I tell ya) I don't do a lot of self promotion. I don't it's like counter to my Zen approach to my life. I'll be me and you'll probably bump into me, maybe ya like me maybe ya don't, it's all good either way. I can't really call myself a writer though(unless this and other blogs count) because while I do have a story in my head I have yet to write Paragraph one. It keeps rattling around in my head because I don't like the "details" I want it to be real, palpable, edible. I guess like most people I am trying to write the Blah, blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah. Look I have a somewhat weirdish comic book (well 4 or 5 part graphic novel but stay with me) running through my head based on some off balanced characters with some extreme dependencies and when I originally envisioned this story some 18 years ago I had a really specific way I wanted the story to go. Now I still do but I need to sit my tail down and start writing it. There I mentioned it, didn't give away too many details that may cause me to get story jacked(though to be fair, this is my blog and it will be time and date stamped so it isn't like I couldn't just point to it and say here, mine, already discussed) and have come off completely flaky again It ain easy being greasey baby.
Yeah I probably need to stop being a tool about that too, just go ahead and write something so that once it is complete I can vilify it complain and then rework it(yes I am that hard on myself that I would write it out, and bag on myself all day for the mistakes I made, Capricorn) and than possibly be happier about a second or third rewrite. Oh well I WAS gonna play Black Ops but it seems my console isn't getting a proper IP address so time to watch Bleach, Naruto and hit the sheets. Til Manana folks

The best laid plans
I was planning to go watch Harry Potter at the midnight showing, but the one down the street didn't have the midnight showing posted so I'm going tomorrow night, oh well I got to wait a day to see a movie "Oh the HORROR".
I got to level 33 in black ops and earned my cross bow, and since I had the cross bow I decided to compete in a few wager matches just to see how the entire "wager" process works. I mean the basic premise is pretty simple you go into a match, put up as many bucks as you feel you want to risk and go in and try to place in the top 3. 2 out of the 3 wager matches I played in, I placed in the top 3. The first one I place 3rd, the second one I didn't place(somebody tomahawked me and erased my earnings near the end), and the third and final match I placed 1st. Sounded like I was playing with some international guys who thought I was either white or a little kid because after the match where dude hit me with the tomahawk they started trash talking, like I hadn't just placed 3rd in a previous match. Well now that I knew what the tomahawk looked like, was a little more familiar with its aiming, understood what HITTING someone with a Tomahawk would do as well as had gotten pretty good with the cross bow, you know how the last match ended right?
With Ol' Primal at the top of the list not only in the money but winning, I didn't give a USA chant wasn't needed. You're only poppin off about the Ol' US of A because we tend to waste what others would give their left nut for. So I can understand a little trash talking, even the comment about them thinking I was some white little kid pffft please I'm an american we talk about tea bagging each other(and actually do it on screen if we have enough time to get over your decaying carcass) as almost a right of passage, Newbie lol hey I can't argue with facts now could I my first 3 Wager matches and for the record I think I averaged about a 3rd, high 3rd but as my second match I was out of the money at 4th I'll take that for my first time trying out a wager match. So again I felt it was a good attempt, I still prefer Team Death Match or Ground War.
By the way I LOVE THE CROSSBOW, there is evil and then there is the crossbow an aim-able explosive dart that you can stick in somebody (anywhere) and let them see the "STUCK" symbol on their screen KNOWING they are about to die PRICELESS. Even better I can just put it near you, if you can't move in time I still get the kill. And if I can get you to run near a teammate or two I'll take that "Double Kill" any day. So I still got my walk in to hit the bank real quick but after that it was back to shooting people on black ops. I should have had a drink but meh I got in a zone and just kept going, tonight though it will definitely be some MR. Potter going on, then some more black ops and THEN some drinking.
I still gotta finish my second blog on black ops but hey I finish it when I finish it, this just allows me to get more info about it the game so that I can better express what I love about it and POSSIBLY help those who are either new to shooters or were wondering was it really a worthwhile purchase.
I will say this there are server issues sometimes there is a little bit of lag, and yes there are still cheaters there are some folks out there with serious connection issues, I do not know if they are deliberate or accidental but they do exist. Okay hitting the sack I hope all have a great friday and a great weekend
