And today...

I am in a very good mood. Hopefully what I've been waiting for all week is about to happen, should find out some time this week. It looks like it's going my way so I'm keeping my hopes up. Things are getting better :)
                       --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On another topic, my little dog is starting to worry me, he's been a bit restless today and making a lot of groaning noises. He's 14 years old and showing signs of dementia. Trying my best to keep him calm and get him to go to sleep but he starts shaking for no reason. Bless him, I know dog's act strange when they're old so I'm trying not to worry too much. He did just come in my room, fart, and then go back out again so his sense of humour hasn't been touched by age HAHA. Little sod xD

Just finished Gray Matter, really enjoyed that game, the story was lovely and I got a good week or so's play out of it. Can't afford any more games at the moment so I'm playing STALKER still. It's a good game, get's a bit repetitive having to keep walking backwards and forwards to different places, it wouldn't be so bad if the loading times weren't horrendous. I still stick to my point that it could have used a 'fast travel' option. I've been through the same area a 100 times, I don't need to do it again xD

The mutants on it are weird. The Brain Squasher or whatever its called is pretty freaky. Hopefully not gonna see many more of those O.O

And I get really confused with ammo types on this game, if ammo didn't weight anything, it wouldn't matter. But I always end up with thousands of bullets for a gun I don't have and none for my bloody Desert Eagle! Which kicks ass xD

Anyway, I'm off to bed now I've had a good blog, night night!

STALKER PT 2.

Hehehe, think I'm gonna do a little modification in the configuration files to solve my problem. It's not cheating, that's why they made them xD

STALKER.

is getting good. I'm loving it, it's so lonely and weird.

Only downsides are the fact that you can't fast travel back to your trader and walking takes AGES when you're packed full off bloody awesome guns! ;) Which leads me to my second downside, I WANT TO CARRY MORE BLOODY AWESOME GUNS!!

Wednesday Times.

Well I've done it! After two days of sitting behind a sewing machine, I've made myself a new skirt with a lace trim! It is good for a first go, if I say so myself :) I'm going to wear it when I'm out Friday night because I am pleased with my creation! xD

I love having a new hobby, something challenging to get my teeth into. The only problem is the noise, it drives my mum crazy! HAHA.

And on a slightly irritated note: I, Nicola JB have managed to sprain my whole leg and ankle whilst sat on a chair! O.o

I was just sat with my legs under me, turned around and then the whole thing went numb for a few minutes and then the horrid, annoying sprain pain came through it. I'm sat in a bandage that Ben put on for me right now, to get help with the pain. ONLY I could do that while not moving!! HAHA.

Accident prone isn't even the word for me xD

Ooh ooh! Nearly forgot to add that I've been replaying STALKER: Shadow Of Chernobyl with my boyfriend today and even though it's bugged and glitched to pieces, I can't help but be addicted to it. There's just something about it that makes me want to keep playing. I do like the lack of music, it does make you feel really isolated as I can imagine a post-nuclear disaster area would feel if it were crawling with mutant piggys. xD

So, if you're gonna play it, maybe get the update patch first (like I'm doing now xD) and have a bash! And let me know if you can get the brightness to stay UP on your game. Mine keeps returning to default which is too dark xD

NX again xD

Wonderful weekend.

With my boyfriend, feeling lots better and having more energy has helped out with raising my mood. We've had such a laugh!

Finished Singularity with him yesterday and we both agree it's a bloody awesome game. Like a mixture of Bioshock, Dead Space, Fallout, Timeshift and loads of other good games. We really enjoyed it!

Nik the therapist....sort of...

For the ladies who have been moaning about having childish blokes...Immaturity is a double edged sword. it's nice to have someone down to earth and funny and light-hearted but then again, if a guy doesn't take anything seriously then he's gonna be pretty much useless in a relationship ain't he? plus it's not nice to feel like someones mother xD

it's okay to sit there and roll your eyes at them (like we do xD) but you chose him. A balance is good between fun and serious. no one wants a stick in the mud OR someone who seems to want to be 12 forever. Cos they're both annoying little shits xD

so...my advice is, ditch the boy and get a poster of Gerard Butler instead...you know what I'm saying ;)
