Re: Memory Game(and I forgot the N)

In my family, I don't really have anyone my age. All of my cousins are either my brothers age or my sister's age so I was a dork and too cool at the same time. My cousin Jane however, is only two years older than me, and I used to admire her deeply. She's attractive, sweet, very social, but what I admired about her most was the fact that she was a pack rat. I don't know if she is still like that, but she had shelves full of Polly Pockets, multiple photo books, empty cans of soda, sunglasses, CD's...just a fuck ton of stuff always covered in a shade of pink. I think it was from the sun reflecting off of the pink blinds in her window. Hanging out with her wasn't so bad. She's older than me, plus she's a woman so add some more maturity points. She didn't treat me like a runt, so I clung to her during those long weekends where the NorCal Baello clan joined the SoCal Baello clan for whatever birthday or holiday it was. I could talk to her about the girls I liked which was awesome cause I got protips, you know. I haven't spoken to her in years. She got knocked up before wedlock and had another kid with the baby daddy last time I heard from her.

Did you know that I totally skipped the 2000 NFL season? The year the Ravens won? I have no fucking clue why I skipped it. It might have had something to do with the fact that my father's life was reaching it's conclusion, and I guess I couldn't have been bothered with football. I don't totally believe that though because I do remember buying Grandia II for the Dreamcast Christmas Eve. Two days before my dad would pass. I remember nothing of that football season, and I find myself bullshit about watching one of the greatest defenses in history. "Oh yeah, they were so tough...yeah...Ray Lewis..." Holy shit this was before they split into four divisions. The Dolphins went 11-5 in the East beating out the Colts for the division? Poor Bears. They went 5-11, but that was B.F.(Before Forty). I really don't understand why I skipped football that year especially after watching the Titans miss greatness by a yard at Drok's place.

(I wanted to link to that famous play at the end of Super Bowl XXXIV, but YouTube is linking to the Korean version of YouTube. What?)

Anyway I remember every Super Bowl before and after that. I mean the Bowls following 2000 were pretty epic games. Tom Brady's first thrilling victory, the Bucs shocking everyone(I blame Barrett Robbins lol, not really), etc.

I'm pretty sure no one really cares, but I still haven't finished Mega Man 9. It's hard to get gaming time in because I'm still sharing a TV because my apartment is still flooding because my landlord is a cheap bastard. I wish he would die slowly and painfully, but I don't want to get into that. The point is I really want to do timely reviews. I would like to get into video game reporting so I need to practice writing reviews and covering the industry, but shit I can't review a game I haven't finished nor do I want to. I'm so close to finishing it, but the only time I get to play is when Andrea goes to sleep which fluctuates. Plus if I play games too late I can't sleep and I don't want to start abusing sleeping meds again. Anyway, I will finish the game this week. There will be a review this week. I will say about the game: If you loved Mega Man 2 and 3 this game is obviously for you.

RE: I forgot the N

Dudes, I typed the address wrong and it said our blog didn't exist and I was going to cry. Cursed long address. I really don't want to change it now that we actually have a crew and it's pretty fucking active so I don't want to lose that momentum.

RE: The reunion

The only reason I would go is so I could retain some spank bank data. Depending on how drunk I would have gotten I might have just masterbated in the bathroom so I could be done with it. Otherwise fuck those guys.
Discuss.
