One more thing down...

So my life has been a whirlwind since Thursday.  My grandfather took a tumble gashed open his head...bruised up most of his upper body...oh and he fractured his c2 neck vertebrae.  I heard by I don't know how many nurses how lucky he was just to be alive.  Looking at him I have to agree.  He didn't suffer from any real serious damage luckily enough.  He can still move his arms and legs...they went into surgery and screwed the fractured vertebrae together yesterday. He came out of it well enough and they have good hopes that it will heal well enough that eventually he will be back to normal...well normal for him.  Still...from spending time at the hospital...staying up for the first few nights...I am damn tired...crashed last night around 3am finally while streaming netflix.  I am completely hooked on that feature btw.  Oh well, thanks to all of my clannies and friends who have been calling, msging and generally harassing me.  It meant alot to know you all cared...reminded me why 2o2p truly is a great place and how lucky I am to have found a home here.

New Gamertag

I have a problem...I admit it...so see..I am on the first step to recovery....or some shit like that. Oh well...I changed my gamertag...again. For those who have known me for awhile...I know all of you are probably just shaking your head in wonder. So I am now going by IllusoryPhoenix on Xbox Live.

I even made a new sig to go with

Oh and on a side note...ATC..check your pms tomorrow..I have to make a couple touch ups but I have a sig ready for you to see.  Errr...I guess that is later today.

This would be cool...

So I was wandering about the web looking for a cool full moon image for a sig I am working on and got distracted by a cabinet with a glowing full moon on it..which I just thought was kind of cool so I clicked on it..turned out to be a weird custom furniture type site..kept clicking along on things that interested me until finally I fount my way here http://www.hiddenpassageway.com/.  Now...I just think this would be sweet.  Not for a secret passage..the page I found linking this site had this gorgeous bookcase that came out and behind was a huge storage closet...I was like...sweet!  So I had to check out the site.  I could see doing something like this with a madia cabinet...mounted tv with a couple of shelves for stereo and xbox 360...oh and I suppose a Sony Blu -Ray player...what do they call those...PS3's?    Anyway...just imagine it swinging out to reveal the movie & game collection...or media server room...if you have the bucks for it...lol  Oh well I thought it was cool. 

Just have to laugh

So I check in with my folks today and I just had to laugh.  I actually went to bed before they did last night. Why you might ask?  Well, even though they gave me grief for going to the midnight release of GoW2...shaking their heads and all...my dad dragged my mother with him last night to go get the Collector's Edition of Wrath of the Lich King the new WoW expansion.  So they stood in line for almost 3 hours (longer then I did) at Wallyworld to get the game.  Plus...my mom got into the moment so much she bought a copy of her own and she doesn't even play the game...LMAO.  I don't think I will let them live this one down.  I think its cool they game...even if it is wow, but to go to a midnight release after giving me grief over it...ohz noz...there will be mockery for months to come out of this one. 

In other news...I remember why I don't like to remember my dreams.  I had this conversation with Lucifer's Pearl the other night about dreams and how I don't remember mine and how they would probably freak me out if I did...what do you know..I was right.  So, I woke up from a dream where I had been in some kind of law enforcement...helped bring down this drug lord...then the bastards cronies killed my daughter in front of me...from there I was lost in grief and shipped off to a mental ward.  Now...I don't even have kids...but it all felt so damned real...to freaky for me...I'll go back to dreamless sleep please.

Made it to 50 on Horde

So I made it to 50 on horde 2 nights ago.  Then last night I was with a different group and we marched from 1-50 with only a few deaths...  Now, maybe it is the fact we are getting used to the controls or the game play, but it just seems to me that once you hit 50...its all easier.  Kinda like stealing quarters from the parents coin jar as a kid even as you hear the ice cream truck pullin around the corner onto your block.  That first time just seems impossible...then after you do it...and have that sweet reward...the next time is just so much easier.  Until the folks found out and grounded me till I earned enough to pay them back...man that was a lot of chores for 5$ and some change...slave drivers...wait..where was I?  Oh well, since I gave up on movie night for yesterday I am going to schedule it for Thursday...tonight is clan night and I can't miss out on that   So any suggestions for a movie?  It is either that or I sit down and start out the Wheel of Time series again...I stopped at book 7 or so...so I know there are some out there for new reading once I get to them.  Movie or book...what to do.

Catch ya laterz
