It's Just Another, It's Just Another Day...

I love Oingo Boingo and was a big part of my grommet days before I would go out surfing with my uncle.  I used to listen to this song over and over again.

I spent last week finishing up my book and then this weekend finishing up the layout for an article for my writer and photographer. 



So to unwind, I've been getting into video gaming a lot...to de-stress.  Sleeping pattern is now much better and I am able to sleep again in a usual pattern.  I swear March and early April was so difficult with the lack of sleep but I'm glad things are good again.  Before I go to bed, I spend the late hours playing NBA Street on the XBOX 360.  It's interesting how many years have past and I really haven't played the 360.  Yes, I even waited outside of Wal-Mart to buy it on launch day...hehe.  But I've been getting into the whole achievements thing...and now I know why people are addicted to it.  Achievements rock and gives me the added incentive to purchase a 360 version over another console version. 

But still, I don't want to spend $60 on a next gen game.  So, the big 25% off sale at Gamestop to the Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale was quite nice.  I was able to catch up on games that I wanted.  As for "NBA Street", it was a clearance item at Target for $14.99.  I enjoy a lot of gaming and typically RPG's or Japanese-style of gaming... but I enjoy sports games and this one was very fun.  Finally beat it last night.  There are probably three more achievements that I will try to get next...but all in all I'm starting to understand the whole enjoyment of XBOX 360 achievements.

Hell Week starts this week for work...busy again.
