January 2009

I have been a fan of the Resident Evil series since I first borrowed Resident Evil from my friend Brett for the original Playstation. Over ten years later the game still freaks me out. This time is different, this time you have a partner with you and you aren’t alone. Also they aren’t zombies anymore, they are tougher creatures, much like you fought in Resident Evil 4, but if they try and kill me in a Resident Evil game I will refer to them as zombies now and up to Resident Evil 10, if they make it. I am not sure if I will be picking this game up when it comes out, since it will be out ten days after Halo Wars, but it will definitely be a game I will be picking up at some point.

I have been working on a lot of projects lately. Things for new clients, things for old clients, and a lot of things for Lep’s Lair recently. Guy of the Moment is going very slowly, I have a couple guys that have signed up, but that’s it. I don’t think the response for the initial entries will be as great as it was for Girl of the Moment.

I am still working on the things I’d hope to someday do, mainly I am thinking of different things and put them in a database. I will eventually create a page on the backend for it, but right now it is fine putting it right in the database via PHPMyAdmin. I am hoping to come up with a few more, I have around sixty right now. When I get to at least seventy five (or by Friday) I will start working on the page for it to be displayed on.

I am working on something else, but I think that I will need to modify the layout for it, which is fine because a two column layout is getting dull, I might need to change it to a three column one soon. I don’t know when that would happen though, I have to really think about how I want to invest in this new idea and how to fully make it come to my advantage.

In personal news, I am absolutely obsessed with Heroes. I have watched all of season one on DVD and have seen the first three episodes of season two. I can’t believe I have missed out on such a great show for so long. I will be watching a lot more television lately it seems, Sarah Connor Chronicles are moving to Fridays, which rounds off the week of television that includes The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Fringe, Smallville, Lost, and the Office. Hopefully this season of Lost will blow me out of the water like last year’s did.

I decided that since Girl of the Moment was a success, and I think it will only get bigger with time, I would try and do a Guy of the Moment. I don’t know if it will take off like the Girl of the Moment did, but I am going to see what comes of it, if anything. For anyone interested, you can apply here!

I started writing a new section, basically it is what I want to do. So far I only have 25 and I was thinking that I would have at least a hundred before I put it live, but at this rate if I can come up with thirty then I might just put it live. I never realized it was this hard to come up with goals that you want to accomplish in your life. But it also brings up another question, why do I have such a hard time coming up with goals? Is my life so fulfilled that I don’t need many goals? Is it that I just don’t wish to accomplish much? I don’t know, but I think once I figure it out I will learn something huge about myself.

I just installed the WordPress plugin, Wordbook so let’s see if it works and plays nicely with Myspace’s plugin.

[Edit] Not only did it work, but it fixed some problems I was having with the Myspace plugin. Maybe the trouble I was having with both of these earlier today will be worth it? [/Edit]

I have started the one hundred pushups and two hundred situps exercise routines. I have just completed the first week and I am doing over fifty pushups total and over eighteen situps consecutively. When I took the initial test I was only able to do about eight pushups and two situps, so I think I am improving immensely. I do another test at the end of week two to see how I am coming along. I did 22 pushups consecutively today so I think by this time next week I can be in the upper column of 25 or more pushups total, which would be really nice.

We have a new Girl of the Moment. She had the most votes, and it was close there for a while, she actually pulled ahead in the last few days and it was still close, but in the end she got the most votes and won the competition. Congratulations Kelly.

I have been toying with the idea of Guy of the Moment since most of my visitors seem to be women, but I am not sure it would take off. What do you think, do you think a Guy of the Moment competition would be as popular as the Girl of the Moment one?
