THE REAL REASON

I know I claimed that I wasn't blogging because I didn't have the time, but that's just not true. Sure I'm busy, but how long does it take to blog. If I really wanted to, I could take five mintues out of my busy videogame playing schedule and write some stuff, but the truth is I just have no motivation. Something happened to the company that was providing my comments, and now they're not such much in business anymore. What's the point of posting stuff on the internet if people can't respond to it. Granted, I could just get a new comments thing, but that would require effort on my part. That's just not something I'm willing to do right now.


A MONTH AGO

Officially, it's been a month since Renee and I broke up. Unofficially it's only been a week. And even more unofficially, it still feels like we're together. I find myself listening to a lot of Elliott Smith recently. Mostly because I find it soothing, but there's that added bonus that no matter how shitty I may feel...at least I'm not gonna stab myself to death.


MEDAL OF HONOR

I gave up video poker for Lent despite the fact that I'm in no way religious. I guess it's more of an exercise in self-restraint. So, in lue of that, I've been playing Medal of Honor. It's a pretty fun game, and because it was produced by Spielberg it's very realistic. The last week or so, I think I've averaged about three hours a day playing it. This wouldn't be all that bad if not for the side effects. First off, I find myself having a new hatred for all things German. Secondly, I've been muttering "earn this" to myself several times throughout the course of the day, often times for no apparent reason. Finally, and perhaps most disturbing, is that now, whenever I walk to class, I'm constantly on the lookout for snipers hiding on top of parking garages or in the tower at Memorial Union. My life is just sad.
