PixlBit

What is going on Pixlbit? I know many of you are excited because as I type this many folks are getting ready for the announcement of the new X-Box, which means one thing: Looks like it’s time for me to start thinking about getting a 360. Yes since the days of the original X-Box, I bought the console once the newer version was announced. Why you may ask? Thanks for asking! I don’t play online (but I did enjoy playing Battlefield online on the original X-Box), I played the games that were exclusives and enjoyed the hell out of Forza and Project Gotham Racing.

Oh Pixlbit, I thought for this week, instead of a long drawn out blog about why I played/liked/hated game X, I decided to bring a little something form the former home (no disrespect), and we’re going with the quick hit tidbits of what’s been going on.

Hello Pixlbit! A couple of interesting things happened this past week 1. I spent some time with some family at a graduation 2. I did some Spring Cleaning on my NOOKie Tab 3. I knocked off one game off Mount Backlog 4. Pickups Pickup Pickups.

Another week begins and it’s time to update you good folks about what has been going on. Actually nothing really has been going on with the exception of a few game related items, and for the first time since buying my Nexus 7, I’ve decided to change the screen’s appearance from the stock launcher to something new.

Well Happy Earth Day Pixlbit! To celebrate I think I should play games exclusively housed in plastic carts (I probably won’t because that means I have to do some connecting of consoles, digging for the games, and blowing on the carts so they work). I will however write about something that I finally got to take part in: Record Store Day.

The Waiting Room, it sucks. A bunch of people sitting close to each other, a room filled with awkward silence with the occasional small talk. That’s pretty much every waiting room I’ve encountered and last week was no different. The only thing that changed was the guy with the Vita with odd movements trying to shoot down things on their screen. Yeah after being “That Guy” for a couple of minutes I decided to take my odd movements outside.

How’s it going Pixlbit! I don’t know about your weather but Southern California has been going crazy with really windy weather. It was tough to drive around yesterday with all the blowing sand and being in SoCal, it makes people go nuts, and the whatever is left of the Rules of the Road are thrown out the window (I had a guy blow a stop sign as I was entering the intersection, and didn’t give a rat’s arse as he blew by sudden stopped Chris). We have to look out for each other because some just don’t care.

So there it was, I finally got a Jury Duty Summons. This was something I really wasn’t regretting because after all these years of voting this was one I could actually attend. The last time I got Jury Duty it was during Finals Week of my last semester in college. When I called to get it pushed back the lady on the other end was quite rude, and I said in her tone “I MUST GO” I countered with it was right in the middle of my Finals and I MUST GRADUATE. She tried to bully me, and I countered with the same thing, finally she gave up and I got excused. Flash forward to last week when I got my first Jury Duty Summons since that point. You could say I was a little excited (watching Law & Order, and other court dramas can do that to me)
