So I start a week-long freelance gig tomorrow morning. In about eight and a half hours, actually. But I can’t sleep yet, because I’ve been out of work for two months. During this time, even though I’m thirty-three years old, my sleep schedule has slipped more and more into the “night owl” realm.
So I’m awkwardly leaned over the side of the bed while I type on my iPhone,, so as not to wake my lady friend. Who is totally not snoring. Nope.
PLAYING: Hot Shots Golf 2 for the PSP. I’ve been playing golf video games since the original PGA Tour Golf for the Sega Genesis. This is the first one that I’ve really enjoyed playing since then.
Like most people, I’m waiting on Fallout 3 at the end of the month.
Oh, and of course, I’ve been playing the hell out of Rock Band 2. Meanwhile, Resident Evil 4 and Bully are sitting in their Gamefly sleeves.
WATCHING: “Veronica Mars”, season 1. I finally see what all the fuss is about.
“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, season 2. Ditto.
“Mad Men”, season 1. Same goes for this show. What interesting characters and well-written dialogue.
“Heroes”. Stop making the characters say the word “villain”. It sounds ridiculous.
“Fringe”. FINALLY had what I would call a “good” episode last week.
“House”. Completely wasting the momentum it built up with last season’s final two episodes. In danger of dropping off the “must watch” list.
“The Shield”. Walton Goggins is an amazing actor.
Jesus, I feel like I’m writing a Larry King column here.
LISTENING: Giant Bomb podcasts. Always interesting to see what the third pillar of the video game industry is thinking.
WANTING: To travel to Japan again. Seeing TGS coverage makes me want to get dazzled by Shinjuku all over again.
Well, VA is groggily muttering my name. I think the iGlow may be keeping her up. So I’m signing off. Tune in next week, mighty readership.
