This is the magical and forgettable symbol of the recursive past. Imagine if you will a dream that never ends, but begins anew every day you do not sleep. Eyes tide the flow of time allowing the water of dreams to slip unnoticed into the future.

Well I'm sitting in a JQuery seminar that I wish we could attend virtual in my cube. Sitting in a crappy chair, yet another thing to add to the pile. Lifes been tough the past few months. With Jackie's mother passing, stress at work, stress from Jackie's loathing of work, and this past week I found out I have a skin cancer on my forehead. Jackie's been leaning on me pretty hard, and I feel the wall that I am is starting to lean. Its nearing Christmas which is always the most financially worrisome time of the year.

I don't mind Christmas that much if we could just eliminate all the gift-giving crap that is more of a chore then anything else. I'm hoping Christmas break will relax things a bit, even though I will probably have some minor surgery to address the skin cancer.

I think I may have to do some job searching for a higher salary positioned. We are managing things alright, but things could be better, and Jackie could quit her job or find a new one If I had a higher salary. I'll have to start doing some searching and see what surfaces.

Finished up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 last night. Great fun game. I may tackle some of the online stuff this weekend, and then Left 4 Dead 2, Dragon Ages, and then some.

Went to Dallas this past weekend to see Depeche Mode. It was in the same place we saw Linkin Park about twoish years ago. Meet up with Jackies friend Joann, a friend of hers, and her sister. Dallas traffic was crazy as usual and by the time we got to the hotel I was going a bit crazy. We chilled for an hour or so. I played this Fantasy Golf game on the PSP. We meet up with Joann and the rest and went to Macaroni Grill. Food was average not at all on par with say Zio's. Off to the show we went. Had a interesting opening act called Peter, Bjorn, and Paul.

Depeche Mode took the stage shortly after and it was a fun show, but not nearly as fun as I would have had a small venue. And then beer was stupid expensive at 9.50 for a 24 oz draft, and 12 bucks for a 24 oz can. Jackie wanted a T-Shirt but they where 40 bucks too. Crazy.

Also this past week the new Batman game, Arkham Asylum arrived and wow is this game wicked awesome. I'm nearing the end of it already, but there's still lots to do with the challenge maps and more. This coming week I was thinking of reactivating my World of Warcraft account, but I may do Warhammer instead. September is their 1 year anniversary, and they have some neat things afoot.

So we restarted our Gamefly subscription a month or so back. They've sent us some crap games, and a few games that I thought I may like but ended up not liking(cough Killzone 2). The games I really want to play on the top of my list are constantly out. However, I did receive Prince of Persia, and was greatly surprised with just how touching, and fun, and awesome this game is. Gamestop had it on sale the same week, and after just an hour or two of playing I decided to grab this gem for my collection.

I've spent the past week and half or so playing it off an on, and finished it up this evening. Simple an amazing game. The controls are spot on, the challenges fair, the characters lovable, and the story is very engaging. If you haven't tried this great game, I strongly recommend it.
