Thanks, Peter! Like I said, it was so, so very tempting to just give up at that one point. It's funny, but that inspiration to finish came from thinking about Iditarod mushers like Jake Berkowitz who dislocated his knee early on, popped it back into place, and kept on mushing. I figured if someone could do that, then a mere 4.25 mile snowshoe course was nothing. That, and I really want that Badass designation.
Yeah, the blizzard yesterday missed us completely, but I still have a five foot snow drift to contend with from the game force winds last night. At least the water heater pipes didn't freeze this time, knock on wood.
Congrats for knocking two games off Mt Backlog!
My weekend consisted of snowshoe race #2 and recovering from snowshoe race #2. Oh, and dealing with cold and gale force winds, again.
You'd be silly not to for that price, lol.
I'm envious you've made the console jump. I discovered I'm not as far behind on my rent as I originally thought, which gives me a little left over from tax refunds. I feel like I need to reward myself with something, but I think I'm going with a pair of running snowshoes and a good pair of trail running shoes instead of a console.
I think that's a great musical interpretation of Robotnik.
I'll be skipping the video, thanks for the warning.
I have the Metroid remake for the GBA, and I've maybe made it through two screens? Yeah, those games are HARD! And that's a direct quote from my then 14-year-old nephew when I introduced him to Sonic's UGC.
Oh, this is cool! I keep telling my folkie friends that video game soundtracks are a great untapped market, but most of them look at me like I have two heads. *shrug* Their loss.
My nephew is really into Minecraft and downloaded it onto my 360 when he was visiting so I could try it out, but I just couldn't get into it. I love the concept, but it's just not the type of game that holds my interest. Have fun with it, though.
