Let me eat cake

Tomorrow is day off. Hurray. It’s wonderful when Thursday is actually a Friday and Friday becomes a Saturday. And Saturday becomes some kind of siamese-Saturday.

Ben and Andrew are playing Army of Two. I’ve given up – it’s a patently ridiculous and thoroughly unsatisfying game. Karen is watching, slightly shaking her head I think at the fact the father of her soon to be Baby McAwesome Allan is yelling things like ‘Get more aggro!’ ‘No, not in the face!’ and ‘Oh god, why!’

They’ve given up. Now it’s time for co-op Rainbow 6 Vegas 2. Which sounds more like some kind of football score. Not that Rainbow is a town. It’s either a hippy commune or possibly some form of drug induced hallucination. That’d be a pretty awesome football game, if you think about it.

I’m not surewhat people did before computer games. Talked possibly. Interacted. Discussed things that didn’t involve lines like ‘you got the guy on the right, or the left?’. People probably didn’t say ‘I’m going to be Dennis Glover… or a girl’ very often. Which was actually a line I heard a couple of minutes ago.

I’m pretty sure it killed stamp collecting and spyrographs as hobbies.

The whole concept of updating the blog has gone out the window lately. So… recent news includes realising that the top of my head had a differnt skin-hair ratio than the sides of my head. Traditionally it’s called ‘balding’. I prefer to think of it as ‘testosteroning’. Irrespective I’ve gone for the shave. More corporate chic than skinhead fascist I hope. Although amusing comments have included:

‘Ah, Uncle Fester’ (Damn you, Allan)

”Buddah!’

And my personal favourite:

‘Hello, I’m trying to track down a villain from a James Bond movie… oh there you are!’

But I’m not growing a mo for movember this year. Instead I’m supporting the big man in Melbourne as he struggles without chin hair. Props.

Right… sorry – I have to go shoot some terrorists. The future of your… tomorrow may depend on it. Rainbow: 6. Vegas: 2. Dave: ?
