Has it been long enough?

So, I've decided I'm not very good at this whole blogging stuff. In fact, the only reason why I'm posting right now is because I'm waiting for my loser brother to call me so we can conquer the galaxy. Yep, we've moved from conquering the planet (Civ 4) to conquering the galaxy in our new game, (stupid name alert) Sins of a Solar Empire. This latest distraction (forgive me WoW!) is a cross between Starcraft and Master of Orion, which means that it is awesome. But I'm not playing it right now. Because my brother has to put his kids to bed, or something, I'm not sure, but it wasn't THAT important.

Oh yeah, and my wife is a saucy wench. :D Muahahahahahaha!

I warned you

So Carrie has very politely pointed out that I have neglected posting here as of late. I have no one to blame but myself, I suppose, but there just isn't enough hours in the day to do everything. I've actually been neglecting many things, and this was one of them. I haven't logged in to WoW in over 2 (3?) weeks. I STILL have not finished Twilight Princess, and I've had the game since it came out. My garage is only half clean still. And I'm pretty sure if I were to try any song on Rock Band, it would be a dismal failure. Oh, and my "ark" as not seen very much progress, though I've documented some pretty good ideas within the last few weeks.

So what has been taking up all my time? Well, I'd be lying if I didn't mention Final Fantasy Tactics on my PSP. Thank you very much Kevin, I have been fully addicted to it lately, to the neglect of other free-time activities. I played this game on the PS1 about 12 years ago (!!!), and I didn't even get close to finishing it. The translation was bad, the story was convoluted, and much to my chagrin, I couldn't level-grind my way to superiority. Well I'm older and wiser now, they redid the story parts, and now it's a very entertaining game. And I can take it anywhere and there's multiplayer, so Kev and I can do missions together. Hurrah.

Also, I have been doing lots of reading and studying on Biblical things! I suppose I can hold my head up high, because of all the things I've neglected, God's Word is not one of them. I am preparing to teach about the Catholic church on Sunday, and I have never been more excited to teach before. I think what gets my goat about it is that Catholicism has become the "face" of Christianity in the public eye, and I don't think we could have picked a worse "denomination" to put there. But of course the world will do anything to undermine the gospel, so should we really be surprised? Also, precept will be starting up again soon, so I'll be a studying fiend for several more weeks for that. *phew* Didn't I say I learned my lesson about not posting for a while?
