The cogs keep on turning

I got Gears of Wars 2 in the mail this morning and so far it’s pretty fun. It’s really just Gears of War but with a few extra guns, some light graphics improvements and a new story. I think there’s a lot of multiplayer improvements but I doubt I’ll play that much. I’m looking forward [...]

We did it!

Barack Obama was just elected President of the United States of America.

His acceptance speech was pretty good, he even mentioned the gays before the straighties.
A couple of people have given me “advice” warning that it could still be years before Obama invokes equal rights.I’m well aware of that, part of why I kinda hoped [...]

Judgement Day beckons

Well tomorrow’s the day. My future is decided. Do I move to Seattle or do I stay in Scotland? If Obama wins then hopefully within a year or two I can move to Seattle. If McCain wins then within a year or two Tim will be moving here.
God I hope Obama wins.

Broken toy soldier

So I heard from Tim and he’s mostly fine, just a sprained wrist and fractured ankle. He’s off work till Monday which is good, though he’s going a bit stir crazy cos he can’t play most of his games which he isn’t happy about.
I can’t believe that tomorrow is the first of November, that’s just [...]

I will race you to the waterside

I got Snow Patol’s new album this week and I’m really liking it. It’s not much of an evolution from Eyes Open but there are a few songs that have a very new sound to them that I like.
I’m glad it turned out good cos I was a bit nervous it wouldn’t after I was [...]

Dreaming of a white christmas

I’m off work for two consecutive days this week, the first time that’s happened since I went back to work. It’s like a little mini holiday. I went into town this afternoon to meet Chris for coffee. I went in an hour and a half early and had some lunch and a read of one [...]

Alone for Christmas

Since it’s looking more and more unlikely that I’m gonna be able to get the time off that I want from work at Christmas I said to Tim that maybe he shouldn’t come.
It’s gonna cost him like £700 just to get here at Christmas and then on top of that there’ll be traveling expenses [...]

Recap

I really don’t have a very exciting life at the moment, which is why I’m barely blogging. All I’m doing is working, working, working it seems.
I went to the cinema with Paula last week to see The Women which was rather dull, the film not Paula. Unfortunately there’s no good films out for another couple [...]

Holiday plans

Tim’s coming to visit at Christmas and I’m sort of anxious about it. So I figure I would take a leaf from his book about talking more about my feelings and explain why.
Obviously I cannot wait to see him again and it’s gonna be awesome spending another Christmas with him. This’ll be our third Christmas [...]
