I'm watching episodes of Agent Carter and Constantine on Hulu Plus, episodes of Crossing Lines on Netflix, and the movie Next of Kin on HBOGO. I'm reading The Lions of al-Rassan by Guy Gavriel Kay. And for dinner, I finished off the last of the corn chowder I made on Wednesday, along with a slice of honey oat bread from the local bakery in town.

Hello friends. It's that time....
BTW, if any of you folks have any sort of Photoshop skills....I'd KILL for an authentic splash for this blog. Doesn't have to be fancy....just something that I can use without having to give credit to some unknown artist.
As always, credit to the OG poster of the above image.
2015.....man, it's been pretty chill so far. I've played a handful of games and have yet to complete anything. I'm thinking though that Suikoden will be the first. There's something about the simplicity of this little gem that reels me in at all hours. Plus, the fact that I can play it on my aging PSP while watching reruns of Parts Unknown really grabs me. I feel like I'm killing two cats with one stone.
Yes....cats.
What Are You Playing?
Me, I'm playing Suikoden, and whatever titles Gamefly sends me. I was going to send back Borderlands The Pre Sequel, but I then decided that perhaps I hadn't given it its fair shakes...so I ripped open the mailer again, hit Gamefly up to send me a replacement mailer, and placed it back in the PS3. I'm going to give it a fair go this weekened, and see what I come up with. Who knows? Maybe I'll end up liking it. I also paid an extra 7 bucks to have Gamefly ship me a second game...so now, The Wolf Among Us (complete) is on it's way. I'd played the first episode some months ago and enjoyed it, so I'm more than willing to run through the whole story. Something about Tell Tale Games....it might be my favorite studio. I've also been playing some Shadow Of Mordor, but that game seems to grab me in fits and starts. I'd read some of AsReal's comments about the ugliness of the world, and he's right: Mordor is ugly, and it all looks the same. Plus, the Nemesis system on Ps3 isn't nearly as fleshed out as it is for modern consoles. Plus, whenever I pause the game....it takes a full 20 seconds to reach the game from the pause screen. Not effin' cool, in my opinion. Ruins immersion, and pisses me right off.
What Are You Watching?
Netflix recently added Ancient Aliens and also Vietnam in HD. I've been check those both out. Good shows....though there are some real kooks on the Aliens show.
What Are You Reading?
Mostly YOUR blogs. I dig your writing, all of you. I've also started A Cook's Tour by Anthony Bourdain, and I finished No Easy Day...gonna move on to No Hero pretty soon. I've also got a whole bunch of digital comics from Humble to dig into. I just need more time....
What Are You Eating?
Tonight I'm gonna feast on Little Ceasar's pizza, crazy bread, and some cherry Pepsi. Not at all good for my body, but it's quite nourishing to my soul.
Howsabout you folks? Sound off, please!!
