More distractions

I have not written much lately; mostly, because Deus Ex: Human Evolution is so much fun. I am working - I finally got my dream hours (8:00am to 4:30 pm) - I work out after work; I play a PBeM game (Olympia), try and keep up with the Liberal blogosphere, and play Deus Ex - I played the first 2 and loved them - it keeps me from many other things I could/should be doing.

Have you been paying attention to politics lately? What do you think of the Republican presidential candidates?
Boring! Not even worth laughing about right now. I wonder if the Republicans will end up actually having their convention and choosing someone who might actually have a chance to beat Obama - I don't think the conventions have actually had an impact on who the candidate is since the 1960s. This one could prove interesting. The other possibility is that one of the non-winners (normally, I would say 'losers' but....) will run as a 3rd party candidate who might peal away some independents from either side.

The Oscars are on and it is boring me; I sent off my turn to Olympia and can't make any more changes until some of my allies get back to me; I am at a Boss fight in DE:HE and the Boss is kicking my butt - he has this really bad-assed gun that I can barely avoid plus he is tossing gas grenades at me and he disappears and jumps over walls while I have had my 'upgrades' disabled, sigh!

BRB (I think I will read a couple more blogs /BRB

Well, I made it through all the blogs I wanted to read, the Oscars are over, I have been killed 4 or 5 times now and it is time for me to do my drugs for bed (the actual med.s I take aren't many - the most important is the Ambien generic)

Just died a couple more times and I am pretty adrenalled up so I had better sit here and calm down or i will never get to sleep. Next major purchase will be my passport - it is now about $150 to renew one.

Ah, well - time for bed and then another week of work.
