Fable has consumed me. I can play again in 7 short hours.....
Great game. If you have an Xbox, do yourself a favor, and go buy this game.

Fucking Monday. I can't even explain how badly I wanted to call out today. I did not sleep very much last night, I think I had it too cold in my room or something. I am very tired right now, with a little over an hour until I get off work. I am just totally unmotivated today. Sucks.
So I have Sirius Satellite Radio now. It is pretty kick-ass. I have to say, I am overly impressed so far, it is a lot better than what I had expected. I installed the receiver myself into my 4Runner, and it was very easy to do. 1/2 hour tops, putting it in. So far, I have been primarily on the Rock stations, there are more than 10 of those, all commercial free, and there has been at least 1 song, usually more, that I want to hear on. Anyways, I am totally stoked right now about that.
Speaking of being stoked: Step into Liquid is a documentary about surfing, by Dana Brown, I believe. Anyways, it is a kick ass video, especially if you watch it on your PC with Media Player 9 Series or Media Center Edition. Very high resolution, more so than a normal DVD. It just has killer visuals thru out the whole film. Breathtaking Scenery. Presented in WMV HD format. Check it out, you'll be "stoked" too.
Fable comes out tomorrow. It feels like it's been a lifetime waiting for this game. I am pretty sure, scratch that, I know my girlfriend thinks I am a total geek for being this excited about a game. I know this because she told me so last night. So be it. It's fun and it's harmless. Am I alone? Hells no! Although, maybe I am overdoing it just a bit: I have called EB Games every day for the last week to find out if the release date has been pushed up. In fact, when I am done writing this, I think they are due a call. SO yeah, I should be playing that game for about the next month or so, give or take. I really hope it is as good as I think it will be. I plan on playing thru it as myself the first time thru. (this game allows you to be good, bad, or inbetween, with every decision effecting the way other people (non-player-characters) perceive you, thus changing the game experience, and possibly the outcome of the game.) Anyways, it claims to be a totally unique experience, and I think that is why so many people are excited about it. I am tired of talking about a game I have never played though, I am just ready to play it. Tomorrow... I can't believe it actually comes out tomorrow.
Ok, so now you probably see why my girl thinks I am a total tool-bag when it comes to this shit. Fuck it, I am.
My little sister took a trip to the Laundry-mat yesterday, and we polished off all my laundry...Which is no small feet. Thanks Shell. It feels good to have clean clothes and to be able to tell what color your carpet is, I will say that.
Anyone watching Big Brother 5? I have been, all summer. I am now pulling for "Cowboy" to win it all. He is dumb as a rock, but he also seems like a good guy, with a lot of character. I think he could use the money. Anyways, good luck Cowboy.
I have been playing Doom 3, from id Software. Great game. Scary as shit. I do not like playing it alone at night. Lots of demons and shit. I have to say, it's pretty cool when something like a game scares you. That, to me, means 1 or two things. Either: 1) I am a pussy. Or 2) the developers did a great job producing this game. I tend to think the latter, but I am sure there are people out there that would disagree.
So the Redskins won their season opener against the Bucs yesterday. Can I get a w00t! w00t!? For those of you that saw this game (it was nationally televised) , how about that opening run by Clinton Portis? Holy shit. They scared me a little in the 3rd quarter, but came back to win it. Joe Gibbs has got it going on, and I think the Redskins have gained back a lot of the respect they have lost in the past few years. Even after only 1 game, people around the nation are talking. Watch out Eagles and Cowboys. The Skins are back, baby!
I went to the Sugarloaf Festival with my Mom, Sister, niece, and Neighbor this Saturday afternoon. It is a Arts & Crafts show. All in all, it was nice hanging out with the ladies, but that type of thing is definitely meant for women. I am trying to get them to go paintballing next week...I think that will be just a little bit more fun than a craft show, you know?
Well, that's all for now I guess. It seems I had a lot to say today. Good Stuff. Later.

Friday. Can I get a hells yeah? Allright, well, let's see....Redskins play this Sunday...shit is gonna be tight. Definataly looking forward to that.
My buddy from way back, oldest friend infact, just put up a blog, so check that shit out. The link is on the left, Saggin-Nutts Blog. This dude is the funniest guy I know, hopefully, his blog will reflect that.
I have a really busy month here at work, and today I am gonna get shit-tons done. After this post, it's all business until 5:00pm.
I just picked up Doom 3 for the PC...that shit is kinda freaky. Awesome graphics. Fucking incredible, infact. Might be runnin that tonight after the bars.
I joined a fantasy football league, I got a decent squad. Notables: McNabb & Portis. I intentionally picked up some Skins too: Coles, Cooley, the kicker: Hall, and Washington defense. I guess I am banking on them having a good season. We shall see.
Aight, well, have a good weekend folks!

Anyone want a Gmail invite? Email me...the link is on the left.
I took a bunch of pictures paintballing this weekend. I posted the one below, as soon as we got back. I have not had a chance to update my blog from home, and that is where i have all the pictures stored, so loook for that in the next few days. We all had a blast.
I hacked it up playing golf on Saturday. Worst. Score. Ever. Seriously.
Kim & I snagged 2 tickets to the Redskins vs. Cowboys, on Monday night, September 27th. Great news! I have been bugging her for months. Thank you Kim's parents!!! and Chooch, who so graciously declined going to allow me to go with his sister. I owe you one man.
So Fable comes out in a week...and my life as a gamer goes back into full gear.
Kim bought me a lambskin rug last night, it's huge and soft and very comfortable. I used it as a blanket last night, but she said it smells, so I won't be doing that anymore. Anyways, thanks baby, I love you.

Big weekend coming up: My brother flys in from Cali tomorrow morning. Grandparents coming down from Annapolis, MD with some blue crabs...oh yeah! Golf on Saturday with my bro, my pops, and a family friend that none of us have seen in years. I am ready to hack it up. It would be nice to put togehter a decent round...we happen to be playing on my favorite course. Sunday, a bunch of us are going paintballing, I managed to get together a group of about 8-10 of us, hopefully, we can all get on the same team. After a long day of paintball, my parents are having a party for Labor Day, and a bunch of people from the neighborhood will be there. Beer and Food. I have Monday off...I am sure most of us do, and it couldn't have come at a better time. I will need that day to recover.

Here is a link to Elena's Motorcyle Ride through Chernobyl. It is a site with a narative and pictures of this Russian chick on a motorcycle, giving you an online tour of the surronding area. Very Cool, erie, and educational. I am absolutaly facinated by this site: http://www.kiddofspeed.com/chapter1.html
*edit*
I am told a lot of this story is fake, and here is a link to support that theory:
http://www.rwguide.com/thread_23381_chernobyl_bike_ride_is_a_hoax.html
i for one still think it is slightly possible this chick pulled this off, and there is some sort of coverup going on, but who knows. it's still interesting, none the less.
thanks for the link JC.
