Diabo III

I am now the proud owner of Diablo III for Xbox 360.

The character selection is pretty typical - tank, cleric, mage, archer.
In addition to the usual toons, they also have a Witch Doctor (creeeeeepy).

To no surprise at all, I decided on the Demon Hunter class.

Mainly, I want to run around and duel wield crossbows dealing damage using Hatred and Discipline.

Uh.. yes please!

I didn't get a change to play through very much of the story line, sadly. Yanno, child with Strep Throat 'n all. I'm pretty pumped to dig in the gameplay deeper.

Speaking of gameplay - my initial reaction to the game automatically take me back to 1999 of Gauntlet Legends for N64. Demon Hunter = upgraded and improved Archer. 

I mean, you run around, kill things ranged, pick up coin/health, and open chests (without keys!!). You teleport via glowing portals on the ground. The zombies continue to respawn from the Wretched Mother until killed. Sound familiar?

I'm sure once I continue through the story line, I'll regret the comparison. From the first hour, though, all I think of is Gauntlet. Just modern-day technology. 

I Love Naps

My best friend > your best friend

#sorrynotsorry

That said, if I could have slapped her through the phone today, I probably would have. Okay, okay - false statement: but she got to take a nap today. What a jerk.

*naps can be bad too - correction

Between yesterday and today (trying to make up for 3 weeks of lost time), I've been working out like a machine. Bigger workouts = bigger appetite. Along with a bigger appetite comes more cravings for food that treats my body like an asshole. I can't wait to see the day where I get a nap and fast food. Say whaaaat??

Let's take a trip down what my nightly sleep schedule looks like, shall we?

Not too shabby, right? Yeah, oookay. Gag me with a pitch fork. 

This garbage is getting really old. I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume that this was caused post baby. My body just got used to it? I can't answer that.

Memory Lane for Child:

First 4 months - 1.5 hour windows of sleep

Month 8 - first 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep

Month 11 - first 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep

Almost 2 years - sometimes she sleeps the entire night in her own bed

Oh look, more pictures -.-

Dear Naptime,

     I miss you dearly. Your stress-free environment of relaxation is all I need right now. Please rescue me from myself. I need you.

Sincerely,

Mentally Exhausted

Star Wars Game Night

I love my sister. Why? She throws super awesome parties. Ok, so there's more than that, but it's my focus tonight.

I finally participated in a themed party. Normally, especially as of recent, I haven't wanted to do a single thing that involved decent hygiene. Yeah, gross, I get it. Please, tell me more.

Boom

You would think I had some hot date or something. Nah, I got to hang out with a bunch of married nerds. Even better! They all participated too. One chick even showed up with a Han cosplay. Winning!

I was pretty geeked because I told her I would bring my Star Wars Trivial Pursuit. I hadn't realized until that night that I really don't have friends. How do I know that?

The pieces are still in the plastic.

You have to have 4 players. (>.<)

We didn't end up playing it due to conversations about being a 'folder' or 'wader' in regards to how you wipe your butt. This took up majority of our night with the original series playing as filler noise. It was pretty freaking fantastic. Oh, and Asians apparently have very soft skin? Who knew.

It felt really good to nerd out with real people. You can only watch so many sci-fi shows with your cat before you start going insane with the lack of dialogue. Sometimes you just need to talk about that scene or how awesome that lens flare wasn't! (sorry JJ)
