HALO THREEEEEEE

OHHHH EMMM GEEEEE! Halo 3....FINALLY released! We've had it reserved for almost two years now, and it's out! We went and waited in line for a couple hours to get it the minute it came out. We got the Legendary set: a big black cube of gamey goodness. Wewtness! Inside said cube was a helmet and a stand that, although we can't wear it, is quite shiny and cool. Also, we've got the game (obviously) and some bonus features disk thingy.

The graphics aren't as awesome as my over zealous brain thought they would be; the screenshots of Master Chief were in-depth and beautiful. His model was done very well. The humans and vegetation, however, were not done quite as well. They looked awfully fakey to me after what I had seen, and after the stuff that has been previously released on the 360. I would think they could make the graphics better, since they had somewhere around TWO YEARS to develop it. What the heck were they doing?

I feel bad saying this because you know that one human's face probably took at least sixty hours to render. But still...I'm frustrated. Of course, I am also being "emo", so I'm overly critical at this point. Woohoo for being crazy. It's fun.

Still, though, it's Halo 3. I am going to play (once the Xbox is boring again) and kick bum and THEN I will say "Oh wow, that game was awesome" (hopefully). All hail Master Chief.

Sparkly!

Today was cleaning day at home. It started with dishes, and ended with moving every piece of furniture in the living room...and cleaning the chair with a toothbrush. A weird method that one would not think would be as helpful as it is. It is also extremely difficult. But that chair is damn clean, it looks brand spanking new!
I saw Shaun of the Dead and the end of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Oh, and a bit of Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny. Shaun of the Dead - not as funny as I thought it would be. I was under the impression that it was a parody of a zombie movie. Not so, in my opinion. However, it was a very good zombie movie...though the end was kind of parody-ish. Eternal Sunshine - wonderful...though odd to see Jim Carrey in a serious role.
Now, I am talking to The Boyfriend and awaiting the bathroom. Though, I haven't decided if I'm actually going to use it yet, due to my brother's friends being just across the hall. What if they see something? Aiiee! I am too holier-than-thou for that one :-p

Entry Number 1...Stardate...1 h4v3 n0 1d34

Woohoo, I am convincing. Not so much...I have absolutely no idea how the whole "Stardate" thing works. Can you tell? I'm probably even spelling it wrong, lol. Obviously Star Trek is not my area of expertise.
Don't misunderstand. I'm a total geek/nerd/dork/whatever you want to call it. But I am just not THAT kind of geek. XD
My life is online. My only social interactions are online. My boyfriends have all been online. Though the current one is OH SO CLOSE! I could conceivably drive from my house to his in one day. Just one day, compared to a week straight. Oh, but it is maddening.
But I digress. I am incredibly bored. And I will probably get bored of this fairly quickly. In all of my other blogs, I offer disclaimers. So, here goes. This blog may cause discomfort, nausea, vomiting, anal leakage, headache, dizziness, and tinglies all over. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery. Do not use if you are pregnant or may become pregnant. Serious complications have been reported, so if you have any of these symptoms, discontinue use and talk with your doctor.
But, guess what? You just MIGHT be entertained for a short period of time. Worth the risk?
