1 slightly tarnished Cloudy... free to a good home

The end of my 2 days off is drawing near. Tomorrow, the very day I don't want to arrive, is mere hours away. This past week has been a bit of a bummer for me. Mood swings, annoyances, grumpy friends, lack of on line friends etc. Fez and Zaib have been avoiding me on PSN (they're probably not alone - I'll find the National Avoid Cloudy Society on the interweb sometime soon I'm sure) but I don't blame them. My gaming needs are like that of a junkie's need for a fix, and I'm on all the time really so I probably harrass everyone too much. I should seriously learn to tell when I'm not wanted. NACS is a very real organisation, I assure you, I'm the reason they were founded... my gaming is a national mennace lol.

Went to see the new Star Trek film tonight. It's a bloody good film, one which I would see multiple times and probably will go see again when I'm next off. Angels & Demons is out next Thursday so that's on the list of films to see. I'm still reading the book but hopefully will get it finished by then though I'm not sure I want to because films based on books are rarely better than the book on which they're based. Because of this, I am often disappointed by a film if I have read the book first. The Golden Compas is my case in point. Exceptional book (northern lights). Crappiest of crappy crap films by comparison. Even some of the Harry Potter films pale in comparison to their paper predecessors.

I've not talked about my Unreal trophies for a while, have I? Well... I've decided to make a concerted effort with getting my Online Champion trophy. I'm now at 415/500 wins so I won't be long now... maybe not tomorrow but the day after definately. The last one I need is the Get a Life trophy, entailing 200 frags per day for 50 days. I have 23 days left. There is a cheat for it but I have refused and am almost cursing myself for it. In 23 days then, assuming I don't skip a day, I will have platinum and boy will that feel good :D

I think that about does it for tonight. I'm off for a bath and then I think I'm going to get my henna out and have a bit of a practice. When the weather starts getting warm people like to wear it and I'm a bit rusty. I am my own canvas in that respect, and practice makes perfect.
