A Little Stressed

So, we are doing the BIG move on Wednesday the 21st , my last day at my current job is on Saturday the 17th and my start date at my new job is unknown.  So it has me a little stressed out.  I was told that it would take about 2 weeks for my background stuff to go thru and it has been two weeks as of today.  I'm hoping that I get a call from them real soon with a start date so that I can get some of this weight off of my shoulders, or else I will have to look for some kind of work in Oakhurst until my new job calls me and tells me when I can get my sweet buns in there and work.  Anyone know anywhere haha.

On to other things, less stressfull things.

I have gotten back into playing Skyrim since they fixed the many problems that it was having and let me say, I missed Skyrim sooooooooooooooo much.  It's such an awesome game and just all out amazing.  As to my other broken game, well, it is still broken and that makes me sad.  I really really want to play kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, the game is fucking amazing but ti does not work, hopefully there will be some kind of a patch issued by them soon because i would really really like to start playing that game again T_T

Here comes some quickie news.
Ready....
GO!!!!!

I watched the complete first season of Game of Thrones and it was awesome, I recommend all of you go and watch it right now.

My son Mikel yelled at me tonight before I went to work and said, "DADDY, Get down".  It was the funniest thing ever.

My wife and I have been watching this BBC show Misfits.  It's about these delinquents on probation who have super powers.  It's hilarious, crude, dark and Witty.  Go watch it on HULU.

My last indoor soccer game will be this Monday, lets hope I score a goal.


Until next time.

School, Soccer and Gaming Issues

I recently registered for my next set of classes out at Columbia College in Sonora, CA.  This next term should be fun but draining at the same time due to having to work, go to school and dot he whole family thing.  Not to mention that I have like an hour in a half wait between classes that I could be sleeping, poo, but oh well, such is life.  I am enrolled for some math class that I need for my general ed requirement and then a drama class as well to meet the general ed.  I am currently going to school to try and finish up my AS in Business since I finally know what I want to do, not to mention that even just having an AS degree opens up a couple more doors for me business wise and financially.  The only bad part is the lack of classes I can take per term due to my schedule so I wont be done till like early 2013.  But I will get this done, if the world doesn't end any time soon I WILL need this degree in order to achieve the goals that I have set for myself.

Transition!!!!!!!!!!!

We had our in door league tonight and we won, the only downside was I let like five goals go by while I was goalie.  I realize that we won and I should be happy with that but my performance was sub par.  I have always been my worst critic, especially when it comes to sports due to this crazy competitive side that I have.  A lot of times if I don't do well enough to the standards that I have set up in my head then it really doesn't feel like a win at all.  If I have to rely on my teammates to give me goal support so that we can win then I'm not really doing my job as goalie to well.  Right?  Anyways, I really just want to play the team that we played during our first game so that I can redeem myself by not letting them tie it up this time and the game ending in a draw.  That sucked!

And then on to the Gaming side.

Skyrim has been giving me issues as of lately so I checked IGN.com for articles on it and apparently it's not just me getting these issues.  As of recent gamers and other gaming outlets have noticed and logged the game have sever frame rate issues once the file size gets larger and larger.  New games aren't really affected it just seems to be once you pass a certain memory size for your save file.  I know personally I have had slight frame rate issues but the thing that has been bugging me the most is that at times when I exit or enter a house or building the game will freeze on me and I have to reset my PS3.  Now I know that in comparison to real problems like world hunger and other bigger issues this is just a very small if not nothing issue that would only affect a first world country.  But it seems I'm not the only one who this is happening to.  Bethesda(Makers of Skyrim along with Fallout and various other games) has put a patch for the game on the PS3 already but will be issuing even more patches int he weeks and maybe even months to come.  So there is hope that this issue will be fixed, its just waiting for the ISSUE to be fixed that has people perturbed.

Well, that's all for tonight, until next time.

Limitless

Just got done watching Limitless, holly shit that was a good movie, if it wasn't for a friend at work telling me to watch it I wouldn't have given it a try.  I know this is going to sound hella gay but Bradley Cooper is a beast, I think I have a man crush but then I remember him from Wedding Crashers and it goes away.  Anyways, I'm getting off track here.  Go watch Limitless, its on Netflix so if you have that then watch it there, if not then find it somewhere on the internet for free or go to Blockbuster, DO IT!!!!!!!!!

Anyways, here is a random picture of me taken a couple of days ago.


I started up a mage in Skyrim.  I've decided to just try different classes now to really see which ones I like and which ones I do not.  Not to mention that there are so many different kinds of characters that you can make that it gets kind of ridiculous but oh well, I'm going to make this shit legit...
TO LEGIT TO QUIT!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my lanta, I've got nothing left, I cant think of anything to write so I guess this is it for today, sorry for the short blog.  Maybe next time I will make it bigger.  I'm going to leave you with a picture, ENJOY.

Its Dentist Day

So i have an appointment for the dentist today at 4:40pm, actually in about 25 minutes.  I have to get three fillings done so I'm not to excited but you gotta do what you gotta do right?  Recently I have had a teeth cleaning, three wisdom teeth removed and one periodontal cleaning done which was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be.  I actually like going to this dentist, his office is pretty bad ass not to mention it is in an old furnished house and they always have hella coffee and bottled water for their patients to drink.  Oh yeah, did I mention that his staff is awesome to, all really down to earth people who will joke around with you.  The wife and I both like the place a lot.  Speaking of the wife, here is a picture of us on our wedding day...


I feel like i should be adding more pictures in this blog, so there is the first one, a cute wedding day pic, now go puke from how adorable it is.

Its pretty crazy that Thanksgiving is next week, my family and I will be spending the day at my aunts house in Modesto.  Oh my how I love Thanksgiving, I eat soooooo much, more then one moan should be able to physically eat but somehow I get the job done.  Its kind of random but every year since I was about 10 years old I have always received one of the turkey legs no matter what, it is my favorite part of the turkey to be honest.  For some reason the family always goes along with this, its kind of like turned into a little tradition of my own for Thanksgiving.  Not to mention getting to see all of my family, ah yeah, ITS FAMILY TIME BITCH's!!!!!!!!!!!  That's really what the holidays are about to me, I could care less about food or presents, I care more about seeing the family that I grew up with who I now only get to see 3 times a year due to everyone's lives being busy, I guess that is what happens when you get older right?  Anyways, its about time for me to leave, so i leave you with a picture of my son doused in baby powder.  Enjoy and happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

Skyrim and Soccer

It's a weird mix and I realize that but that is kind of how my day went.  I got home from work and played a little bit of Skyrim while my 6 month old was swinging in his little baby swing.  It was nice...

NOW MY OPINION ON SKYRIM!!!!!!!!!!!(place explosion after the all caps)

Compared to its predecessor The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Skyrim is a much much(sooo much) better game in every aspect that you can compare it to.  Graphics(check), sound(check), fighting(check), inner game mechanics(check) and fap material(check?).  I know that I haven't gotten a whole lot of time with it due to being a dad and doing the whole daddy thing along with time for work and other activities but what time I have had I have been enjoying the hell out of the game.  It's just fun and still retains a level of serious-ness that makes you want to know what happens next, and then if you want you can be all like, "F you story line, I'm just going to go out and explore for no apparent reason!"  Its fantastical, whimsical and some would even say orgasmicle.  This is a game that I think almost everyone can get into, it's not as nerdy and complex as the last game and its way more user friendly with much better explanations about how the world works and the multiple crafting systems.  I know in my heart of hearts that I will be playing this game for months to come, maybe even years, who knows, only time will tell.

Next on the agenda.

I went to a pick up soccer game tonight at a local indoor roller hockey arena that we have near where I live, I have not played soccer in ages but it was still a blast.  Actually at one point my legs gave out on me which was a first for me, very weird feeling to be honest.  It was like someone was putting more and more weights on my legs with each step that I took until I fell to my knees which I imagine looked pretty funny for the people who were watching.  After that I went back to playing goalie which to be honest, I was kicking ass in and i even got a compliment which was a nice little treat.  In the end I had a blast and will be going back every Monday night, in fact they are going to do a league which I will most likely be joining with a buddy of mine so I have that to look forward to.  EXCITING!!!!!!!!!!!

That's kind of my day in a nut shell, until next time have a good one.

11 Hours to go

So The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim has already been released, for those of you who are lucky enough to have gotten it at 12am, I give you a hearty FUCK YOU!!!!!  I'm only saying this because I wish I could have been there at 12am to receive my copy as well.  Oh well, I will continue to drink my hatorade.  Luckily I will be getting my copy tomorrow some time after I get off at work, get the family ready and then drive us all down to Modesto to pick it and then go to Victoria's Secret so that the wife can get herself something nice.  So to be realistic, I will most likely not being playing it until 8am Saturday morning due to having to sleep when we get home today after getting the game around 2pm.  But when I am finally able to play you bet your ass I am going to play a good 2 hours straight(that is a long time for a parent).

So I had an interesting conversation with one of my co-workers tonight.  She was complaining about her Boyfriend taking time off to play Skyrim, I think she said he took two days.  Then she tells us how she is taking time off to go and see the midnight showing of the new Twilight movie when it comes out.  I said that that is pretty much the same thing except for her boyfriend taking two days off instead of one and then told her that if her boyfriend had only took one day off then wouldn't that be the same thing?  She insisted that it is not due to a movie only being for 2 hours and that you can play a game longer and you don't have to play it that night.  Then I asked her, "Cant you just see a movie on another day?"  But yet she still continued to tell me that they are not the same thing.  I personally think that they are, one person is taking the night off to watch the midnight showing of a movie, the other is taking the night off to get his/her copy of a game at midnight so that they can play it.  Each person is taking a night off for their "event", seems like the same thing to me, video games and movies are both sources of entertainment and some would argue that they are in a way the same thing except for one you have more interaction in the world you are seeing.

Just out of curiosity what do my readers think about this, let me know in a comment below this post, I'm interested in hearing other people's perspective on this topic.

Until next time, later.

Reply(Comment from last post)

Just wanted to thank whoever(I wish I knew who you were) commented on my last blog, to be honest that was awesome advice, I will definitely take this and run with it.  Also on a side note, you are the first person to ever comment once of my blogs so thank you for that as well.  If you want to see what this person wrote then check out my last blog, I guess it is good advice for anyone wanting to blog and they don't really seem to have a general direction that their blog is going.

On to other things and stuff.

My Tennis class is almost up and we took our final today(yeah, a final in tennis).  That may have been the easiest test I have ever taken, if someone were to hypothetically fail that test then I am sure that our teacher would probably not want to teach ever again.  Come to think of it, I wonder if anyone has ever failed his test, I will have to ask him about this.  We are also doing skills testing which is serve, for hand return, back hand return, slam and volleys.  Once again these are pretty easy as well.  I have always been good at sports, not the best but a quick learner so this class has been a complete breeze thus far.  In fact the only reason why I have taken this class was to ensure that I get a better registration date for the spring semester since the two classes I will be taken(I think Math and Earth Science) generally fill up pretty quickly.

The funny thing about taking all of these classes now is that if I would not have been such a retard when I was originally going to school and would have pulled my head out of my ass I would not be going to school right now.  I would already have my AS in Business and be finishing up my Bachelors Degree.  I'm not complaining but I do think it is kind of funny, I do know that if I could tell my past self something it would be to get that shit done and maybe scare him in some way to ensure that he would in fact "get er done"!  Hopefully when I am done with my AS it will open some doors to help me further the education and to maybe find something different to do for a living.  We will just have to wait and see.

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim comes out in three days...
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have never been excited to play an Elder Scrolls game but this time I am.  From what I have read it seems that they fixed the things that I did not like about the last game ie. having to sleep to level up, not directly telling where the skills people are and a better third person view.  Now that those things are gone I am pretty sure that I am going to like and or love this game, if I don't then I will feel retarded for spending money on this game.  But I have hyped it up so much that I have a feeling that I will be playing it for a long long time, if not forever, well maybe not forever but I think that you get my drift.

I don't usually ask questions for my readers but are there any games coming up that you are excited for, if so write them in the comments done below.  Lets get into a nerdy game talk.
