Blood and Titties

So, ever since Thanksgiving, and the incredible awkward pre-Thanksgiving get together... I'll talk about that later... I've been playing a lot of video games, and I mean literally somwhere between 24 and 36 hours of time has gone down the shitter.

Firstly, I beat Silent Hill Homecoming six times, got all the endings, all the stupid achievements and was left satisfied yet somehow hollow. It did turn out to be the third best of the franchise, behind 3 and 2 but it relied far too much on the film and wasn't even made by Team Silent, instead being made by Double Helix. At least Akira Yamaoka still did the sound design.

I followed that up with many rounds of Left 4 Dead, Mirror's Edge, and Dead or Alive 4. All great games.

Then I finally got around to playing, and subsequently beating, Ninja Gaiden 2 in all of a day, which made me sort of sad as I wanted more weapons to violently eviscerate the bad guys with... Oh well.

I am now trying to cut myself off from gaming for a while, going so far as to shove the X-box and it's bag in my dark, dank crawlspace.

(Oh yeah, the pre-Thanksgiving party... a lot of old friends, awkwardness on the part of one of my friends and his wife from who he is seperated, and a transexual... that is really all I want to say.)

I didn't really have anything I wanted to talk about so my shitty entry will have to suffice.

Seven months and counting till wrestling school.

By request of the old man that his body never lay out of ear shot of the town's bells.

It's been a rather exciting past two days. I've got a lot of things done, filled out some paper work. I'm waiting for a call from a prospective employer, which hopefully comes soon. Then I need to go sign some papers for this beautifully house that I found that hasn't been occupied for a very long time, I hope it's a murder house.

I watched the Fountain today, such a great movie. I like the interweaving of different philosophies and religious beliefs.

I think I might watch the Seventh Seal later.

Also, I need to get out of this house and go somewhere, spend some time with someone else, besides just Billy.

Wax Paper and Meredith Monk

I'm insanely bored right now. I have absolutely nothing that I want to do.
I may end up going to the carnival later, but then again I'll probably just stay home and read Nietzsche in a bid to get me prepared for the class on him that's not for another year.

Since I don't really have much to say I'm just going to throw out a list of magazines that I would like everyone to read:
Vice Magazine
Up
Corduroy
Juxtapoz
Butt
Skyscraper
and Bust Down the Door and Eat All the Chickens

Those are the magazines that I usually spend the months with, except Bust Down the Door and Eat All the Chickens which has a hectic, strange printing schedule.

Also, read the Dream People, it's an excellent online publication... if you like Bizarro fiction.

I need to thank Cat for showing me Meredith Monk, she is amazing.
