The title is a continuation from an email thread today. The post however is about Grand Theft Auto IV. I had it pre-ordered and picked it up yesterday. The game is amazing...(see: The OMG THIS GAME IS AMAZING type of reviews ). I am really impressed with this game. The graphics and the little refinements are great additions. I havn't played through too much of it, but when I finish it, I will post a longer review.

In other news things are good with me. Finally got the 'training wheels' taken off at work and am on my own in our phone queue. It should be goodtimes, I work with a good group of people.

Intresting weekend...

I have been playing wingman all weekend...its been interesting. Two friends really are into each other but don't want to date right now. Next best thing? Friends with benefits...part of the problem is the guy is kinda nervous about it. I have spent most of the weekend convincing him that he needs to see this girl because she is really into him and bored. So basically, I spent several text messages convincing him to see her and from what I can tell things worked out. They right now are with each other doing who knows what. Go him.

Now the other interesting part for me is chilling with a certain girl. Me and her could be easily described as complicated. We were in to each other, depends on the day whether I still am with her right now. Were are still very close, chat alot (See: my facebook wall...) I came over to her house for dinner tonight. I know her parents quite well, we have mutual friends and have gone on trips with them. Dinner was good, afterwards watching the hockey games on tv while the girl and her 'snowflake' boyfriend did their own thing. (Snowflake is not my term, but it does work).

Later the girl left to take the boy home. As soon as she left, her mom was talking to me about how much the girl likes me. And how much her parents think I would be a good guy for her and don't see why she is with me. This was a 10 minute long thing which was rather humbling. They admit the snowflake is a nice guy, but going nowhere and not really right for her. They went on how I was right for her and there was some kind of connection. Either that I just listen to the girl for some odd reason. I don't really pass judgment on the guy, he is pretty cool and the girl is into him. Her parents do confirm what the male friend from the above story keeps telling me, that she is into me, quite a bit from what I hear. I just don't know about the whole thing, I would like to say she can't be that into me if she is with the other guy, although they haven't been together long at all. I guess I will have to see what happens. I have been the goto guy for her in the past. That is where the frustration comes from. I kinda get put on the spot for stuff by here and it doesn't seem to guy both ways. I guess I will have to see how it plays out. Who knows what could happen

Well thats been my weekend. There was also saving a couple of idiots from getting their butts kicked at Snoqualmie pass at 2AM...but that didn't bug me too much.

Epensive day...

Started off well. Got pulled over...d'oh! Last time I try to get to work on time. The other thing was getting my cellphone sorted out. I needed to be on a plan free from the family. ATT decieded they needed some money. My wallet got lighter. Oh well, hopefully I can get the discounts setup correctly..the phone CSR sucked...royally. As in, you only can get the most expensive data plans... I am taking a trip to the ATT store in a few days to fix that.

Last time I try that...

I learned something last night. Certain things are not for me. Doing a couple shots of an adult beverage after I was nice and smashed...not good. Oh well, kudos to the host for the party. It was good times, met some people and was was annoyed as usual by some (See: girl who makes me the goto guy). All in all a good weekend, 3 parties in 2 days. Although one was not a drinking party, it was a PS3 party. Sucky part about all this? The neighbor with the weed-whacker. I can tell this is gonna be a fun day.

Things that annoy me, Part 1

I have a feeling this will turn into a multipost rant. Anwyay something that has gotten on my nerves lately is being the 'goto guy' as Princess Kitten calls it. The people, mostly girls, who only talk to you when they have a problem. And then calling you repeatedly about said problem. I have no problem listening to you. It's just when the only reason you talk to or see me is to talk about problems, something is wrong there. There are times where I want to hang out, not just listen to you tell me your problems. It goes both ways, I am sure you don't want to deal with my issues. And 'taking' me shopping is not a way to make up for it. I follow the normal guy shopping trend of get in, get out, and do it cheap.

The other thing on the list right now which is semi-related, is people who only talk to/txt me when they need something. Whether it be money or a ride somewhere. Later I try to hang out, they are too busy. But remember I am not too busy to give them that ride. Go figure. That ends my slightly selfish rant, go back to your normal lives.

"They're like Milkbones, without the after taste!'

Oh when my Dad gets bored and hungry, bad things happen. He was giving some dogtreats to the dogs and decided he needed one. Not my idea of normal. Then he was raving about how they were 'Damn good'. Oh the exciting things that happen on days off....

April fools?

I like to think I could pull a couple of April fools jokes a year. If you disagree with that, poo poo on you. Anwyay, I did pull a couple off yesterday, however one wasn't taken so well. Little wonder why really don't talk to her. Ish happens.

The video I posted yesterday was a gag, I think my favorite one from yesterday, a few others:

--Digg.com changing the 'dugg' icon showing odd characters
--uk.youtube.com 'Rick rolling' (Changing all feature videos to this one...)
-- Gmail allowing you to customize the time your email was sent from
-- Microsoft and Yahoo agreeing on a Buyout price

Another good one was the internal website 'WTF' edition. Anyone do any good pranks?

Solid Creed???

This caught my fancy. I loved Assassin's Creed, and can't wait for Metal Gear Solid 4.
