Is this thing on?

Oh hey, look at that, I've still got a LiveJournal!

Sorry, y'all. Twitter and Facebook ate my brain.

And I'd have a really cool and informative update, but I'm at work and I'm busy and I have a new boss starting tomorrow so I gotta get shit done.

WoW and CoH also ate my brain. CoH will eat it more once Issue 16 goes into open beta. Or I get into closed. Whichever comes first.

Also? True Blood and Dollhouse. Did I mention I've read the entire Sookie Stackhouse series of novels three times now? Two of which were in a row? I'm now lending the books to a co-worker of Keith's so that I don't read them all again.

And now, I track food! I'm trying to cut down on what I'm eating. To say I've been eating a bit too much lately is a bit of an understatement.

Big breakfast today. Cheese omelet, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, vitamin water.

Currently drinking (drank?) a diet pepsi.

Lunch was a turkey sandwich, vanilla/chocolate pudding cup, pepsi throwback, and some bite sized candy bars (4 of 'em).

After lunch beverage is another vitamin water.

CoH is so yesterdays news. What about Champions Online!? :)

I bought the $5 pre-order box to get into the beta this weekend, am all patched up with a character made just waiting to play. The login server is borked at the moment so am just waiting to get in.

I hit 80 on my fifth WoW character, my rogue, and my dwarf warrior (sitting at 78) is just waiting on the faction change to go live before I get him to 80 and grind up his gear. I think I have a problem. Especially since I'm trying to figure out who to level next, my 37 shammy is probably the leading candidate. It'd be my 'lock but I think I'm going to wait till I can be a Goblin to remake him. :)

I wouldn't touch Champions Online with a nuclear bomb. It has the one-two punch of being both Jack Emmert and Bill Roper. Jack has proven to be a liar with little regard to his player base. Bill gets to be immortalized by a google search on the word "Flagshipped".

I've only got one 80 in WoW. My next highest is my DK who hit 66 this weekend.

Yea I'm with you on the Bill Roper thing, I was one of the guys stuck with the lifetime account on Hellgate. I never got too into CoH so Jack never really bothered me personally, though I know what he did. I swore I wouldn't touch it the day they hired him, but I have no willpower.

I'm just giving it a shot for $5, figure see how much it's like the old pen-and-paper game. I wanted to really enjoy Fallen Earth, a post-apoc MMO, but man the game plays so clunky. I just can't get into it at all. Am watching Aion, but too anime I think for my tastes.

Practically none of the people I know who have beta'd CO have enjoyed it. So, yeah. And Aion is a bit to much of a Korean MMO for me. I just don't like the art style they use in it.

I'm getting a mixed vibe on the game. Some people seem to be enjoying it quite a bit, but others are kinda of ambivilant towards it. I got about twenty minutes of play today before the servers went poof.

I think that they're down for good now until the early-play time starts -- which I get to be part of having bought the $5 pre-order box. I figure that'll be my real chance to play the game, it's 'live' and I don't have to spend another dime on the game if I don't like it.
