Aural Pleasure





As we live in an apartment complex we don't crank the sound up as much as we would like when playing, especially late at night. They'll also come in handy when we are playing different games at the same time or when one of us falls asleep on the couch. So last week we pre ordered twoTurtle Beach 360 headphones, one wireless and one wired, only one wireless pair can be used per transmitter.
They come out August 28th. Can't wait to use them, won't get gangked by combine anymore.
Recently finished Z.A. Recht's Plague of the Dead, the first book in the Morning Star saga and started A.E. vanVogt's "Moonbeast". I've read vanVogts work before and he is a favourite of my Aunt. I grabbed the copy at Surry Hills markets, having never come across the title before. I had to read it before passing it on.
Having just finished the contrast between the authors is colossal. I know it's not a far comparison by any means, but where I was just skimming over paragraphs with, Moonbeast sporadically jumps into my head during the day. I can't wait to pick it up again.

I eat diabetes for breakfast.



Miss China.. out there...want those boots.



Have a lot to do on this site so please bear with me.

The TV people called today (post-poned due to rain) and said I could join in on the Sydney Weekender shoot. Turns out the location was further west than I had anticipated plus I have a lot of unwrapping & texturing to get through so I passed on the opportunity. Priorities.... although if it was paying....

@talsit_de_cod pointed me to a sweet website, Dorkbot, a place of creative and weired collaborations. Worth checking out, there is something there to tickle everyone's fancy.

Watched some Co-op on Revision3 tonight. For the record; if there is a zombie crises, I will grab my shot gun but I won't pack my bags because if you can't do it naked than it's not worth doing. I might wear sparse, carefully placed armour to keep RoboticButt happy, otherwise it'll be "Keep warm!" *grumble grumble* *BLAM! headshot* "you'll catch a cold" *grumble*
Co-op latest episode did inspire to get some Gears of War 2 action in at some point within the next few days. It's been a few months at least.

Almost ate a whole packet of sherbet bombs to myself today, that's ok....(not really), did 4hrs exercise yesterday and 3 & qtr today. Half of that exercise is weights, the other half is light cardio while I do work.
