Ok, so my friend ImaginaryFriend brought it to my attention that old navy has a deal on Black Friday. If you spend $20 on cloths you can get lego rockband free while supplies last. This is not available in Canada. Cuz you guys get all the boss deals. So, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to go to oldnavy on black friday and spend the $20 I will send you on an extra large oldnavy sweatshirt for me and something for whoever goes shopping for me, and get my free copy of lego rockband. Then you will need to send it to me with the money I will send you for postage. I dunno, it doesn't sound like a really big deal to me, and if one of you guys asked me, I'd do it. So I'm asking friend to friend please please please please please please please please please please. I'm sorry but Old Navy AND a free video game (even if it is lego rockband) is just too hard to pass up.

Guess what time of year it is? It's that time of year when I lose whatever tenuous grip I have on reality most of the time and get ready for Christmas. So, it is once again time for the great Kelly's Christmas card list addresses of my imaginary friends roundup. WeeeHaaaw!! Official bed, Setho10, GodModeEnabled, Wren28, tiggerboy,andJbul are excused because I already have them. Austin LIght I need your and Brookes new address because I only have the old one. Scott MI need your new address because I only have the old one. Everybody else is encouraged to supply me via pm or email your address so that you can receive a Christmas card from me. This started between Kate (wren28 ) and I about 4 Christmas's ago and my list of recipients has grown every year. I will be posting reminders in every blog from now until the end of the first week of December. This is something that really truly gives me a warm happy feeling so don't wreck it for me.

Tonight, my plan is to eat some of the pizza that I just ordered and finish Fatal Frame. Once that is done I think I i will try and finish Ghost Busters since I never did, and then tomorrow if time permits, I am going to finish Saw. For anyone interested, if you like the movies this game is not bad at all. If you were not a fan of the movies or didn't see them, I'm not sure that it would hold much interest for you. I am pleasantly surprised to say that barring a really bad ending, I'd give this game a solid 7.5 to 8.0 I am going to be writing a review of this one as soon as I finish it as well.

I am so glad I decided to play Fatal Frame again. It has really made me feel like my old self as far as gaming goes.

Have a great weekend everyone. Don't forget to send me your adresses please. Thanks.

I've noticed lately that I have been losing my interest in gaming.... I KNOW, I FREAKED OUT TOO!!Every once in a while I fall into a place where no matter what game I play it feels like I am just playing the same game with different characters and cover art. Today I sat and thought about what game through all the generations for whatever reason I really found impressive. I threw Fatal Frame into the xbox today and took it for a ride. Fatal Frame for anyone who has not played it, is a Japanese Survival Horror. You are armed with a Camara that can collect Evil Spirits. The game is very story driven, but the camara as a weapon is extremely cool and this game is Pee your pants scary. Playing it in the dark is only for those withnerves of steel. The first time I played it, Chris came to watch me at some point. He screamed out loud twice and turned the lights on.Now, I didn't hold out much hope as I started it so deep has my game depression been lately, but 10 minutes in I was hooked. I played Fatal Frame from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm today pausing long enough to get my son off of the bus at 4pm and take a couple of quick pee breaks. It was awesome. I haven't been enthralled in a game like I was today in a long time. Even now, my console is paused not turned off. I will be going back as soon as I am done here. I just feel so good I wanted to share. I know that most of us go through what I call gaming angst every once in a while so next time it hits you go back to a game that you remember really rocked your world and see if it still does. I am totally out of my funk. I am thinking already of what I am going to play next. I am looking forward to a weekend of gaming. I am feeling totally like myself.

My friend Seangave blood today. Sean reminded me that it is something that I need to do again as soon as I am able. It is something that if you are able to do everyone should do. Everybody knows someone or knows someone that knows someone that will require emergency blood at some point in their life. Please if you are able too, give blood. You rock Sean, I wuv you.

My very dear friend Austin wrote a fantastic little blog about unplugging. Check it out if you have a chance. The man has some valid points and I for one am intending to take his advice.

Christophers Master Chief costume was a rousing success Halloween night. It was the only one that we saw and it seems he has been crowned King of the boys age 8 to 20 lol. So many teenage boys jumped up and down saying how cool his costume was it was amusing.

Yay, it's Friday. Tomorrow is Halloween. Christopher looks so cool in his Master Chief costume. No I can't take a picture because the camera apparently got stolen shortly after the video camera. I hope my stepdaughter got half decent money for them at least. Actually, I could probably take a picture on my crack-berry. I'll try that tomorrow.

Christopher had a Halloween party at school today. We baked a milk chocolate cake with orange flavoured frosting. He helped me decorate it and it turned out actually pretty good considering an 8 year old did half of it. He was very intent when I showed him how to use the pastry bag. He messed up the first couple of inches, scraped the icing off and started again and he did really really well. So it looked like a jack-o-lantern. It had orange icing with green sugar sprinkles for the stem, a chocolate sprinkle mouth and yellow eyes and nose with two blue sour candies for the pupils. He said the kids loved it and since 22 kids at a cake big enough for 45 people I guess it was pretty good. I got my cake board back with some crumbs and a smear of icing.

Obviously since it's a small country school, most of the kids remain in the same cIass with each other right through to high school.All the parents of Christophers cIassmates know that I am a chef. It was brought up at the first parent meeting for his room that if there were no objections I would do all the baking for cIass parties, but in exchange I was not expected to contribute to any purchased candy or presents for the room. It works out really well that way.

Tonight Christopher and I are going to make sponge toffee. I usually make two big pans. One pan will be just plain sponge toffee and the other will be chocolate covered sponge toffee. It keeps really well and both of my guys really like it. While the sponge toffee is cooling I am going to make some berry jellies. Those are a gift for Christopher's bus driver. It is her Birthday on November the 3rd. Christopher gave everyone on the bus a jelly last year and his bus driver still asks all the time if I am going to make more. I will make 2lbs so that we have some here as well.

Chris has gone to Brantford to see his friend Dan, so looks like I've got the night off. Think I might throw a game in my 360 in a bit and see if I can get XBL to work for me. If you see me on and you want to play send me a message K?

Have a great night everybody. Sean I want pictures of your gorilla suit.

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