Good weekend…

Friday’s basketball game was fun, Raptors won and we got free pizza. Score.

Regarding Project Y:
I just finished up after starting today at 7pm. I said I was gonna work on it all weekend but I ended up finishing the bulk of it on Friday in like, 4 hours. It’s mostly done except this paging system that I have to do manually….THAT…should be interesting. Thinking over how to dev it in my head already…my “what to think about as I try to sleep” thinking. Doing that also tends to lead to a dream where I’ve solved the problem in my dream, using completely unrealistic methods that do not apply to real world logic. It’s a nice feeling to wake up and try to remember what dream Warren did or how dream Warren accomplished these goals that still trouble me. It’s a rare feeling when I wake up to those kinda dreams…I kind of relish them.

Anyways, I shoulda spent more time this weekend on Project 3. I’ll need to work late the next few days to catch that up.

My weekend was spent mostly playing Hard Corps: Uprising on the PS3 (already released on the XBOX a while ago). It’s basically Contra. 2D 3rd person side-scrolling shooter with weapon power ups. It’s hard. But not impossible. Takes practice to play well and a lot of practice to beat the regular game. I’m not sure if I have the time to practice and be good enough for that. Also, you need a good partner…which, unfortunately, I don’t have. I can only think of one person off the top of my head who’s good enough at these type of games to play w/ me and he’s out of the country…I tried playing online with someone of equal skill but while it didn’t lag for him (he hosted the game), it lagged for me….caused some unnecessary deaths. Next time, I’ll host the game.

Anyways…I really gotta work my ass off again this week. Sorta looking forward to it though…I’ve really been listening to my music a lot lately….and I’ve really been enjoying it and feeling the words. Like, you can listen to a song a hundred times but you might not get it, you listen to the chorus, the tune…but you only know the words well, not perfect. When you really…understand them all….it’s more interesting. Songs I’ve liked no longer seem to be relevant to my tastes, the opposite is true as well. Also, songs that didn’t really apply to me in my past are more relevant now. Y’know? Just….listening to old stuff but it seems new again. I love it.

Glad to say that my life is finally getting the peace that it had before, months ago. The doctor appointments are less frequent, issues are generally more or less resolved. Some other…life problems seem to be resolved for the moment as well. Everything that was giving me stress, making my blood boil, bothering me….it all seems to be gone. My life is just the way I like it: drama that exists only in my head and created by me. Topic of another post…but I enjoy drama when it’s created by myself and within my control. And I enjoy getting rid of drama that’s out of my control…but I don’t enjoy that kind of drama. Does that make sense? Basically, when my life is going really well, I create my own problems….for fun. And life is going well right now….so I wonder what I’ll come up with :D

I felt like I hadn’t blogged in days and days…but it’s only been 3. I just wanted to write a bit I guess….

Off to bed, need to wake up early tomorrow :(
