Assassin's Creed, omnis?
yup! I'm nearly done with it. I can't seem to beat the big guy at the end, so I'm going back through picking up the non-mandatory missions, plus trying to find all the flags. If I conquer this game, it will be the first console game I've played and won all the way through. Because of that, I'm kind of determined to just finish it!

OK, off to try and find Sears. They apparently have scarfs at super cheap prices through today. Also sheets. Wish me luck. I usually try and avoid stores until after the new year, but 60% off is too tempting.

Heh-- given that I don't game, I'm rather impressed with myself. Actually, that one caught my attention last fall because of the superb use of music in the ads (Massive Attack's Teardrop)and the graphics looked absolutely amazing. I asked Lewis about it and he told me the storyline-- I have to admit, it really sounds interesting.
Nate got Prince of Persia for Christmas so I may watch him play some of that.
VW - I'm sorry you guys couldn't be friends, but it sounds like he as some maturing to do.
Shir, I too am sick about this. You and Nilly and your families and, hell, the whole Middle East are in my thoughts.
vw, I know it's hard, but it's for the best. Being friends with an ex is hard in the best of circumstances, and I agree that it sounds like he has a lot of growing up to do.
Nora, so much -ma for you and your family. It's all just too much, dammit.
Suzi, I'm thrilled for you! I know this will take a huge weight off your shoulders.
Raq, also thrilled to hear your good news.
As far as my grandmother goes, we're in a bit of a holding pattern right now. The symptom is troubling but can't really be looked into until Monday without the ER, which Mom is trying to avoid putting Gram through, so unless things get a lot worse, it may be some time before we know if it's nothing or if it's something serious. She's 95 and has lived a good, long life, but obviously we're hopeful she has more time.
Maybe you could be friends, sometime. But, like me and my first breakup, you tried to get there too fast.(Plural you)
Barb, you should have a cabana boy give you a massage, and a mojito or some chocolate. You deserve it.
Thanks, Andi. I will admit to having delved into the tiny stash of Godiva. At this point, I'll be happy for a Cabana Boy to deliver pizza. Although the massage wouldn't go unappreciated.
Pix, I've been thinking of you and your grandmother and sending lots of it's nothing ~ma.
Hopefully it all resolves itself with a minimum of further stress on all of you guys. Please give my best to your mom as well and hugs all around.
Oh yes! Barb, I meant to send my congrats to you on having survived your mother's visit. Kudos, sister.
Thanks for the ~ma. The latest is that he did not have a stroke or heart attack- it appears to be a massive respiratory infection. They are treating it and he's on a respirator. We'll see how it goes for the next 24 hours. The news for now isn't as bad as it could be but he's definitely not out of the woods. He still hasn't regained consciousness.
I really, really fucking hate the fucking holidays. Like, a lot.

Words have gone. What is left is brackets.
That is good news Raq! Excellent work Barb!
FLUMP. Tired now.
