OK, Im driving down the road today, and a wild hair crawled up my ass. Im not so sure why this bothers me so. I guess its cause Im a prick. Yea, Im man enought to tell the world, Im a prick. This isnt something like when girls proudly proclaim themselves DIVAS or BITCHES. Im not proud of it, I just understand and accept that Im a prick. So anyway, Im sitting in traffic, and for the 10,000th time, I see the car in front of me has one of those "In Memory Of" stickers on the back window.

Everyday it seems that my dream is getting farther and farther away from me.

I suffer from the self-defeating mentality of "I love this game.  Im gonna play it until I hate it."

Here is a topic that paints me as a bit of a goober but one that I’m sure will generate much discussion: the idea of having your own theme song. Think about it, you walk into a room and your theme song plays to the amusement or horror of the room’s occupants. It could be the same way as you enter a Halo party; a clan mate could have the room busting out in laughter as he/she enters to ‘Why Can’t We Be Friends’ while yet another clan mate might disturb the party by joining to the strains of ‘The End’ by the Doors.

In some ways Im so fricking happy, but in other ways Im starting to feel sad and scared at the same time.

In six weeks we will see the graduation of my son and my wifes daughter. This ought to be an interesting event to say the least. Its funny how you realize your getting old based on the fact your children are graduating high school. Having been a single parent for most of my childrens life, Im finding it hard to let go of my oldest.

Suxor Reason #2 – No Talent!

I’ll admit it, I have no talent. Never really had any! Any reasonable amount of skill I have ever had in the multiplayer environment is from practice. Practice knowing the levels, weapon locations, and shooting skills have made me a decent player in the past.  Spending hours doing jumps and shooting drills have given me an advantage. I am willing to do some of that these days but there always seems to be something else, more fun, to devote my time to.

Ive been playing World of Warcraft since its release.  

Like so many others I completely cracked out on the game from Day 1.  My commitment to the game completely eclipsed my other game systems, including the psp and 360 releases.  I grabbed a psp when it came out, but I was too into WOW to really even notice the 360.  The way I get obsessed with games, this was probably a good thing.  I had almost no anticipation of release and had avoided pre-ordering.  When would I play a 360?  I was already altering my sleep schedule to play WOW.
