It’s finally out – Starcraft 2..

I was a huge fan of the first one and think fondly back to epic 8 hour lan party battles.  Yes, I know the sequel does not have lan play but I also enjoyed the single player campaign.  I’m sure I’ll get my ass handed to me in online play but I’ve just got to get this game on principle.  So as I’m writing this, the game is downloading to my PC via purchase online through Blizzard.

I’ll probably update this after I’ve played a bit.

ok.. been busy as hell lately - haven’t updated my main site or kept in touch with anybody on facebook, but here’s a list of crap that’s kept me busy for the past few months in no particular order. 

 - moved back into house (not on the market anymore so no more need to stage it).
 - remembered the pain of $800 monthly con-ed bills (Damn central air..)
 - redid my home office
 - my dog died
 - my great aunt died
 - my grandmother turned 98
 - my daughter turned 2
 - my birthday came a week before hers, but somehow hers still came first.  :P
 - helped my younger bro move to his apt
 - helped my younger bro get his car
 - tons of work at the office
 - got a new pc (6 core intel i7, 12gb ram, 2tb hd, geforce 480, 27inch monitor)
 - got new furniture
 - got a new laptop
 - cleaned out my garage
 - updated my servers
 - started teaching myself sharepoint
 - helped my younger bro get a cushy office job
 - my wife got a bad ear infection
 - various holiday events I wanted nothing to do with but somehow got involved in.

So I send a “WHASSUP!?!” to everybody and apologize for holidays/birthdays/occasions/events/marriages/whatever I may have missed.  I’ll probably still be very busy with real life for a while to come, but I haven’t forgotten you all.  Take care!
