-Got my mom a gift for her 56th birthday. Gave her the gift on Friday but her b'day was Sunday. Everyone went to Orlando Florida except me. Had to work.

-Found out my other little sister (She's 23) is five weeks pregnant. At least she was engaged for about two months, now. Still worried but offering all of my support.

-I've been working 12 hours a day for eight of the last nine days. Finally got a week off from work! I'm taking the family on vacation.....but we can't decide where to go. We're going to spend four days somewhere (Universal Studios?). We need to figure this shit out quick! When next Wednesday hits, it'll be weeks before I get another day off.

-3DS is awesome. Snuck and bought it without telling anybody. When my GF finds out that I spent $250 on it (plus games) I'm in trouble!

Can I ask whch state you live in?

It would be so nice if I could just plan a trip to Disneyworld fast like that.

Georgia!

And planning a trip is no big deal.  If it's a cruise or something just get your tickets and be there when the day comes.  Anyplace else, just get your room and work it out as you go along.  I think we've decided to just go to Jacksonville Florida and stay there from Saturday to Tuesday (or go to Myrtle Beach and do the same).  A little disappointing but a getaway is a getaway.

haha. I didnt mean the actual planning. I meant since I live in Brazil traveling to Us, means a lot of expenses so I have to plan it well before I go.

Thats all. lol

Thanks for the answer though. You like Georgia?

Crazy dream, last night.

Dreamed my daughter and I were on a road trip and I got tired. We stopped on the side of the road and I took a nap. It was the middle of the night and some guy comes outside with a shotgun. I'm looking dead at him as he shoots my car with a shotgun and pretends it was an accident. I let him know we're in the car and that I saw him. I tell him I'm calling the cops and that I'm a cop so my testimony is evidence or something like that. The guy decides he wants to kill us.

Of course, it being a dream, the car won't start. I grab my daughter and we run. Since the guy is older (probably 60), he can't keep up. We find a place to hide in the bushes near some rich people's house. They come outside and point a gun at us, too! I explain the situation and they tell me that the guy that wants to kill us is named Johnny Bascom (!?). While we're talking to them, the guy shows up and puts the shotgun to my head.

So I grab the barrel and knock the guy to the ground. He has a bunch of handguns hidden all over his body. I grab one, he goes for another. I throw each one away and I hold him to the ground and the police are on the way. Then, while I'm holding him on the ground, somebody else starts shooting at me from the darkness. I tell my daughter to go inside with the rich people and I'll catch up with her, later. I eventually kill the old guy and go inside to tell my kid everything is okay. She's dead, laying naked on the sofa with a horrible look on her face. I pick her up. My kid is lifeless but musters the strength to hug me and shed a tear before falling lifeless, again.

Then, I woke up. Been thinking about that, all day. Seemed so real.



Guess who's back? Back again? That's right, allaboutthegames885 here, fresh from my trip to Minneapolis, MN, to tell you about said trip, as well as to show you pictures of said vacation. Here we go.

                                 This is the rental car we took there. It would break down before we could start back, which is the reason why I posted this on Friday after a good night's sleep, rather than Thursday after a good night's sleep. Unfortunately I don't think I have a photo of the rental we took home.

This is a photo of my mom I took at a Denny's on the way there. Lovely lady, isn't she?

This is the appetizer me and my family shared. Yummy!

If you can look closely, you can see the state sign welcoming us to Minnesota. Our hotel awaits!

This is the CONvergence Consuite during a slow time on Thursday, June 30th, 2011. I've been going to this convention every year since the Sci-fi/Fantasy fandom paradigm in Minnesota shifted from Minicon to CONvergence. Basically, Minicon was trying to go back to its roots as a small convention. As for my thoughts about that, I say that you can't put a full-grown live chicken back into its egg, and you can't shrink a full-grown convention without pissing off nearly everybody who goes to your event. E3 tried that and it nearly destroyed their event. [/end_rant] Moving on...

My Grandma, Margie. The very source of most of my political viewpoints.

Connie, mascot of CONvergence, in plastic statue form.

My mom and grandmother, dressed in their Sunday finest... on Saturday night.

My cousin, Esther, looking up from her computer.

My cousin, Esther, looking up from her computer... and smiling!

My brother, Michael, being a goober, as always.

The Fourth of July Fireworks, which would have been the perfect ending to our vacation, if the gear shift on our rental hadn't failed us the very next day. That's okay, because that same day..

.

My mom took this one at the Mall of America, just outside Nickelodeon Universe.

After all that spending and fun time, we still had to return home. With the replacement car we were given, we got Michael home, no sweat! Then we got mom's Ford Focus back from the Chattanooga Airport parking lot. On our way back to the apartment we share, mom got a flat. She pulled over, turned on the warning lights, and called for roadside assistance. We didn't have to wait long before help arrived. They jacked up the car, removed the flat, and replaced it with the donut in mom's trunk. The rest of our return trip went smoothly. That's what happened on my trip. To all of you who took the time to view this in its entirety, thanks. To all those who got bored and skipped to the end, thank you as well.  I think I want some feedback if at all possible. Thank you for your time.

Bachmann wants to ban porn and says homosexuality is a disease - down
Everyone makes fun of her for it - up
Moronic crap that teachers have said - down
The fact that people understand that it's moronic - up

And so on.

I don't understand what some people think this will accomplish, other than put millions of people in jail for not giving a rats fuck about the law and getting caught for it.

It would never work. It would be a thousand times worse than the war on drugs, which is itself just about justifiable.

Feeling lackadaisical lately, like i don't have the energy to do anything. Bored out of my mind, but lacking the will to do anything about it, so i'm just pushing on with my creative writing and relying on cable TV to get me through the rest



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Resident Evil the Mercenaries 3D is disappointing. :/

Bought Uncharted 1 and 2 the other day.  Just beat Uncharted 1, and was extremely impressed. 

My only complaint was **SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER* the whole entire fake zombie part at the end **SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER** I was not expecting anything like this in this game, and it was just a slight letdown.
