Feeling Supremely Unmotivated


I can't remember the last time that I felt so incredibly unmotivated. I have some homework that I need to do, but I just can't muster up the gumption to get it done. Infact, I don't want to do anything except sit on the couch, watch something, and then go to sleep. I tried motivating myself earlier by getting up, taking a shower and going out and getting something tasty to eat. I figured that would kind of jump start me. I was wrong. I just don't feel like doing anything! I'm not sad or anything, just kind of unmotivated to move around. I think I'm going to go to sleep early tonight and get a good night sleep. Hopefully that will set everything straight and I will be good to go!
Oh...I did find some motivation to play some of this game called "Heavy Rain" on the PS3. It is frakin amazing! If you haven't checked it out yet, I definitely suggest you do. It is like a choose your own adventure movie. Really keeps you on the edge of your seat and makes you feel like you are really incontrol of the story.

Sigh....


So, against my better judgement I just tried to watch the first episode of the TV series "The Legend of the Seeker". I had to turn it off. It was so bad on almost every front I can think of casting, acting, writing, adaptation of the original stories...it was just a disaster. For those of you who don't know, this utter travesty of a show is supposedly based off of "The Sword of Truth" series written by Terry Goodkind. Now, the first 3 or 4 books of this series are great. Seriously good fantasy fiction. The first book, Wizards First Rule is definitely on my top 10 books list. The only thing that this show has in common with the books is pretty much the names of the characters. Just about EVERYTHING else is different, and sucks completely. I can't even impress upon you how sad I was. Even if you had never read the books before, the series still sucked. I definitely do NOT recommend this show to anyone. If it wasn't bad enough that there was 1 whole season of this show, they decided to make a 2nd season! I am definitely not alone in my view of this show. In my search for other people to commiserate with, I ran across this review/letter to the author, Terry Goodkind. It is pretty darned funny. Arg...well, I don't know what else to say. Picard pretty much sums it up for me.

My Blog is a Sad, Lonely Darth Vader...



So, I was just looking at Patty's blog and saw her post about having people from all over the world come visit her site! I was pretty intrigued by all of the random searches that led people to her page, so I thought I would ck my own analytics page to see what sort of fun stuff led people to my life! The results were less than exciting. Now, I realize that I haven't really had much to say at times, but I thought random hits would have happened. Yeah...not so much. Patty has people from like 47 countries visiting her website. She is just more exciting than me!
Maybe if I just mention Patty's website enough time in my blog, with hyperlinks to her page, people will hit on my page by accident! I doubt it, but here's to hoping! I find my own lack of faith disturbing...

Fun on the Couch



Often later in the evening, I find myself sitting on the couch watching a little tv, looking at the internet a bit, and constantly looking at the clock to decide what is a good time for me to go to sleep. Patty is usually on her laptop looking at her boards, so this is some nice quiet time we have. It's kind of funny when we are both just sitting here next to each other, each using a computer! A bit wierd, yes...but it works for us!

Back to Blogging


Well, I actually wrote up a whole new big blog, but Safari crashed and now I'm left to start over again. Sad. This will be much shorter than my original post. Basically though, I realized from my hiatus of blogging that I actually really liked it and missed doing it. I therefore decided that I would make an effort to do this more often!
So, even though I didn't take these photo's (obviously) I wanted to put up a couple of pics of things I've been doing lately! The first is my new MacBook Pro! I love it. It is great. We decided to get it since our other laptop is broken and since I am going TDY so much that I needed something to do my homework on, and so that we can skype together! The other picture is of a game I've been playing! It's actually been out since like 2003, and I've always wanted to try it. I'm happy to say that it hasn't disappointed! If you want to find out more about it, you can ck it out here.
Anyways, that is about it. I'll post some nice pics tomorrow!

It's all fun and games some nights!



Patty and I played a new game with our friends last night, it was called Dominion. It ended up being a card game, which I thought Patty would hate, but it was really fun and we both had a great time! It always helped that I won! :)
Tomorrow we are going snowboarding at Appi. I'm really excited to try out my new board, and to go out again and hit the slopes! I'm really excited for Patty aswell. I know she is going to feel way more incontrol this time and hopefully I'll get to take her down some of the bigger runs!

Happy Snowboard Day!


Well, my snowboard, boots, and bindings all came in the mail today! Needless to say I'm pretty excited! My apologies for not posting anything for the past few days, but I didn't realize how late school would really go to, and how tired I would be. I'll be sure to post earlier though to make sure I get a pic in every day! Anyways, either this weekend or next week, I can't wait to shred the mountain up with my cool board! They also included a nice winter hat, a baseball cap, and a pair of headphones for free in with the package! I highly recommend the place I got the board from (The House), which you can find here. They had wicked fast shipping and great service!
