Age of Mythology
Tonight I BOUGHT a copy of Microsoft’s Age of Mythology. Yes I said, bought. I anticipate for the next three to four weeks that I will have ninety percent less sleep than normal as I will be playing AOM virtually non-stop via MSN Gaming Zone and against JT.
Meanwhile, my domain host switch to Godaddy finalized today. Big relief because I thought something wasn’t going to work at first. I still have a few kinks to work out (broken links and stuff) then it’s time to get to moving on with my projects online and offline.
My personal fears are coming true. I have found myself glued to CNN on tv all this evening. I don’t like the news; I hate the news, but I can’t turn this off. At the moment there is exclusive breaking news where CNN correspondant Brent Sadler is driving through Saddam Hussein’s hometown, Tikrit. Now the convoy is under fire and Sadler is somehow remaining calm. Why am I watching this? There is no logical point for him to drive through this town speculating that the war is over. Wait, before I turn let me read the scrolling news at the bottom. Outbreaks of SARS again. This is disturbing, I just can’t turn. Mission accomplished for the ratings department at CNN. This has to be a phase. Yeah, I’ll get over this tomorrow.
