That’s right for some reason Jim has a blog

With the constant spam showing up in my G-mail account recently I found myself asking the usual question. Why haven’t I posted on my blog? I mean Brian went through all the trouble to set one up for me and I haven’t used it in quite some time. Heck, a lot of stuff has changed over the past few monthes, not really writing wise but change in general.

The main reason there really isn’t much to report with any of my writings is because I’ve been suffering from a prolonged case of writer’s block. There are occasions when it does leave and I can get a little bit of work done, but it always seems to come back. I know what everyone’s thinking, Jim, you pure being of awesomeness and win, how is it that you, perfection incarnated, can suffer from prolonged writer’s block? You also my wonder why I used so many comma’s in that sentence and the only answer I have is because that how things turn out sometimes. The universe and a strange thing that likes to implode, or explode… Whatever the scientists say it’s doing right now.

So I’m sure the question on everyone’s mind is this, Jim, just what is it you have been doing? It has been a long time since you told us. The short answer is working, playing Rock Band, other stuff, blah?… But since I really don’t like giving short answers get yourself a comfy chair and a nice refreshment because I’ll tell you all what I have been up to. Just remember that you have been warned.

I know, I know, I usually don’t go much into my personal life in this blog, but since I’m not writing I don’t really have much to do, anyway here goes. Turns out back in May good old Jim quit his job over at a pizza place that he worked at and pretty much lost contact with everyone that worked there until just a few weeks ago. What does Jim do now, you might ask? Well Jim now sells computers at Best Buy. Why? Because I’ve wanted to work there since I was 16. No seriously, I have literally applied at the exactly same store every single year until up from then until now, which now I actually have the job there. I know what you’re thinking awesome, right? Well of course we are talking about Jim after all.

Of course Jim doesn’t work all the time, so what is it he does during his spare time, did he finally decide to get himself in a relationship? No, and shut up. Finding a relationship in my hometown is like mining for coal, dark, oxygen depriving, and canaries dying left and right. Where do canaries come into play in this metaphor? Yea, I don’t know either, but I still stick by it! Actually I do have a really good idea for that, but I’ll just let everyone guess. What I’ve been doing in my spare time is what every other nerd with a love of music is doing, Rock Band. Alright so the only next-gen system I have is a PS2 (That’s right PS2 not 3), but who cares that game is still badass regardless of what system I have. I actually do drums and a little bit of singing, which are both really fun, plus the make you more cordinated. Other than that well the list of games is rather long, but here goes to the best of my memory: Persona 3 FES, Saga Frontier, Pokemon, Final Fantasy IV (DS), Brain Age 2, FFVII: Crisis Core, Patapon, Gods of War (PSP), Rune Factory, Final Fantasy III (DS), Final Fantasy VI (GBA), Maple Story (Don’t ask), and others I’m sure I’m forgetting. As of right now my friend who is currently in the mountains of our fine state going to college as introduced me to that MMO Perfect World International. It’s an open beta, free to play game that as my cousin so elegantly put it, looks just like Everquest. I’ll be the first to tell you, I’m not a fan of MMOs and what they do to people, but there are occasions when I want to play one. Of course I also like a challenge and nothing seems more challenging to me than to play a healer, so of course I chose a cleric. Now whoever decided that a cleric needed ZOMG high damaging magic from the get go needs to smack themselves in the face, because I haven’t found this challenging yet. I mean yea occasionally I do get a little overwhelmed, but still. Oh and my friend that told me about it… Yea I haven’t seen him in the game yet, go figure.

Anyone else get really annoyed by the freecreditreport commercials or is it just me? Nevermind, off the subject, that’s what I get for watching television while trying to blog. Anyway that is all that I have been up to as of lately, I still lurk the forums and try to do a little work every now and again. I’m on aim a lot so if you want to talk feel free, I just normally take a while to reply depending on what I’m doing. Expect to see a few more of these before the years over, maybe 2 or three I don’t know. Depends on how productive I’ll feel, after all Brian’s leaving for boot camp soon and dunkel and myself get online at sparatic hours, so… :/
