on being a god...

so after many days of little to no posting activity i am back... i stopped posting for a few days because i've been having a string of pretty shitty luck. on friday i started a post that recounted a seriously nearly unbelievable series of events that happened to me - but didn't want this place to turn into me complaining about my own stupidity/black star of doom over and over and over again! (it's really funny, it involves a downpour of rain, a light blue t-shirt, no cash, no debit card, a raging caffeine headache, a yoga mat and messed up transit delays)

onward... my roommate got a computer game last week. this computer game is so freaking addictive - i'm beginning to think i have a problem! several years ago i was a game junkie - i play two main games :
civilization (take over the world - how can you NOT want to play) and
the sims (it's like being a deity - so cool)

but a few years ago i kicked the habit & stopped playing those games. they are such a time suck and so counter productive to getting ANYTHING done, not the least of which is going out and actually living your own life with real people. but this new sims game my will power is gone! between having bad luck, finishing harry potter and this game, i've had no time to do anything else....

must go feed the fish tonight, else they might pack their little bags and leave my pond!
