sonatine

 

man the summer seems to fly right by.  i wonder if there’s ever going to be a way to combine the shit i toss on facebook with this journal.  that would be swell…and convenient!  well anyway…for this particular catch-up post, i won’t bother with catch-ups. it’s just been too long since the last real entry.  i ate, drank, went out…etc etc.  i was going to write about my travails with women too, but i’ll save that for it’s own post.  it’s categorically comical anyway.

what i will post on though is that beauty up above…woot figureprints!  it’s been nearly six years since i started playing world of warcraft, and i no longer feel the need to justify nor explain why i play and why i’ve played for this long.  my life is dandy, i’m not a proverbial basement dweller, and my social life is more than adequately healthy.  that being said, it’s always been hard to quantify the near six years spent playing the game in a physical form i could hold, until figureprints came around.  for a nominal fee, they’ll take any of your characters and print out a 3d statue of it.  so i thought for a brief second, then went…fuck yea, i want one.  it was meant as a birthday present to myself…but i got another present for myself anyway (i’ll get to that later).  and this was the first cycle/expansion where i’d been part of a group that has cleared through all the content (still currently working on hard modes), so i thought it fitting to commemorate that in statue form. anyway…whatever.  it rocks.  tho i will admit…damn sonatine looks scrawny.  anorexic blood elfs don’t look so intimidating in statue form…*shrug*.  my armory pose still looks infinitely more heroic.

oh right…and in addition to this, i also got myself a big 50″ plasma.  there’s that too…woot.
