Well folks, my internet will be shut off either today, Friday, or Monday. I'll probably won't be on much anyway if it's going to be Monday. I work like 5-6 days a week at night, so I'm hardly online nowadays, and I just make blogs here. I'm gonna spend my gaming time mostly at the new website GiantBomb. It's pretty cool so far, not much restrictions and what not.

Gamespot is improving its site, but for me it's too late to give much of a damn. I'm sure some of you feel the same way. Anyways, you can hit me up a PM if you wanna chat. I'll be sure to write a blog as soon as I get internet at my new place. I'll be gone till like Sept. Try not to miss me too much.

So my mom gave in the 30-day notice for us to be out by the end of this month. That means my internet will be cut off soon. She said August 15th. We will move on August 29th I think. I will have Road Runner and Time Warner cable at the new place. I also have to get another computer desk.

Other than that, it's the same ole for moving - get some boxes, pack up things, throw out things; but this time, I'm making a record using a databse. OH yeh. And check them off as I go along. First thing in the database, a total of all my games according to each console. Then my books; electronics, clothes (well maybe not clothes). Then cd's, although I don't really have much use for Cd's since I use media players (but I have a huge stereo system). So yeh. The boxes with my consoles are staying real close to me.

In other news: Nothing's really going on worth reporting. Well at least gaming or internet wise. Although my boyfriend just got a new job at Game Crazy. Since our idea is too have our own game store/franchise, he applied for another job there. So now he is working both CVS and Game Crazty (technically he hasn't starting working a full day, but he is officially on their payroll). I'm so proud of him, now he can get me free or low prices new games, woot!

His b-day was last week Thursday, he got Soul Caliber 4 PS3 version. I want the 360, but I really want the Revolution Civilization game. Played the demo, it was awesome.

My new job is going well, but very boring. I finished two books less than a week already each having at least 200 pages.So the next book will be something constructive. I brought this Linux Administration book as well as Web Design and some home decor books.I have some productive ebooks, but I am not going to print pages worth of stuff.So I'll work with what I have so far. It will take me a while anyway to get through the three books I mentioned, plus I need to finish studying my Driver's Licence manual so I can get my licence soon. I'll most likely get my licence by this fall and perhaps get a car along with it.

And how was your day, Spawnie?

My financial problems are like a river of my own pee. I swim in it every time I have the nerve to use my credit card. And what for?, you might ask. Games - Bloody, filthy, small packaged, bundles of excitement and my fulfilled happiness of outside influence video games. The woes of my generation can list video games as the top leading factor in debt, well most likely. I'm no expert, but even my own boyfriend has problems.

Everyone has their choice of debt. Mine has recently been video games. Now I've played video games practically all my life, but only in the last two years, have I been going absolutely insane with my credit. In the past when it came to video games, I would buy them when they were used or very low price. It would have had to be of extreme curiosity if I was going to buy a game when it first came out. However, something has happened in the last couple of years that's been changed.

At first I thought it was me. I thought that once I got control of my financial duties, I could monitor my spending and buy a little here and there. But then I started buying games when they first came out - games that cost $50 - $60. When you buy like 5 games in a week, that's already more than $200. My whole Xbox 360 collection has been brought since March or April when I got the 360 Elite. We're talking at least 30+ games, only maybe 5 are used or on sale. That's not even comparing to my DS collection, PSP collection, my wii collection, and my Ps2 collection. I brought maybe 15+ more ps2 games in the last two years, Brought 4 more Wii titles, all of my DS collection, and all of my PSP collection. Hell I even got two new systems in two years - My GOW PSP I brought for my recent July23rd B-day, and my Wii which I brought like October 2007. My 360 elite and Ds were gifts.

Enough background on my current systems. Let's get back to why I'm spending so much. Just to put it simply, THERE HAS BEEN A SURGE OF GOOD GAMES LATELY. For all systems across the board. And more so, the genres that I like has more good games. So many games, so little time. I stack them in my bookcase. I'm running out of room. I had to maneuver my books to accommodate my video games. And it will only get bigger when Star Wars: Unleashed, Soul Caliber, Mirror's Edge, Ghostbusters, etc games come out.

I should become a game tester.

And how was your day, Spawnie?

Some people just don't have opinions. Like SpawnHellraiser.
SpawnHellraiser must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could SpawnHellraiser possibly have for not rating a single film?
