Yes boys and girls, a somewhat personal post from symbioid:
I've been working. A lot. Nice money to roll in though, at least. And in a couple weeks, I can purchase "Blinx: The Timesweeper" for my x-box. I'm excited about this game. It utilizes the hard drive to make a console game like none before. Essentially, it allows you to record you movements, and then do things like rewind, play the recording, so you have a sort of ghost-like character, pause the game(while you still can move in it)... rewinding would come in handy, for say, if there's a bridge that fell and you're on the bottom, and you needed to get to the top, you could hop on the bridge, rewind it, and you'd ride the reverse-falling-bridge to the top. Stuff like that. I wanna check the reviews first, cuz if it sucks, I of course, won't get it.
Umm. Slackerdom? Yeah. There are a few people I need to write to. Suki, you are the first, and I PROMISE! to get to it within the next week. My parents are also high on the list. I need to write to them more. I don't keep in touch nearly as often as I should.
Rosemary is still having the confusing problems(ie: dizziness, blurriness of vision, pain all over, etc, etc...)
Working on the code now that i got my linux box up and running. The code, being working on my game programming learning again. Sure all I'm doing is the double-buffering shit again, but hey, if I gotta rehash what I've learned before, that's ok... Even got the software DVD player to go. Can't find a dvd player for free for windows. Course, when I get my christmas bonus for work, I'm gonna get me a new computer so I can load Windows, and play motherfucking Warcraft 3! And the other games(in my posession) I've been waiting to play, but can't cuz my system is to slow... ie: Deus Ex, Alice... Neverwinter Nights, and Dungeon Siege also get me a bit wet. And of course, I got Diablo 2 to get through yet. Add to that Morrowind for the xbox. And I'm gonna be gaming a long time. Oh yeah, and I'm gonna get a gamecube during christmas so I can play pikmin, zelda, mario, and animal crossing(and trade with my friends Tony and Brent, and maybe even Rosemary will play that game, cuz it's so cute, and fun and "sims" like enough to warrant her to play)...
Umm. Yeah.
OK, bye.

Only bad thing is I only get 2 days off for xmas since I just started my new job (24th & 25th), so we'll have to make the most of the time I have at home. Oh, and don't forget Metroid comes out in Nov. Talk to ya soon.
