We lost a ferret tonight.
Not fun.
Ferrets, for all their small furry fun, can not just die like other pets... they have to cry and scream for hours before they pass on.
I can not tell you how much of an impact that has on a person... it is worse than watching a family member cross over.
This is why I swore to never own another ferret... ever.

Warned you I would not post often
A dear friend of mine has a new blog, and invited me to look. As it turns out, it is hosted on BlogSpot. So, I had to go revisit mine. Hehe, had forgotten my user name.
Oh well, back again. However my life is so boring these days I do not know how much I will post.

Well, my online life has changed...
It used to be all about the gaming. Or reading about gaming. Or looking for ways to make my gaming more efficient.
I've been WoW-free for over 6 months. I have it on a USB stick, for super-fast reinstall should I wish to, but I've just had no desire. Matter of fact, I have avoided any online gaming since my departure from WoW.
The last couple months, most of my time is spent on NetFlix, watching movies online. I sure do love me some NetFlix. I occasionally hit up Face Book, but not very often. And Twitter, I've forgotten my password yet again, I so seldom log in there.
It amazes me how much time I spend watching movies these days. Do not get me wrong; I still play games. However, I've moved to the Wii console. I rather like it, and it's something the wife and I can do together.

New method of thinking I suppose
When I started this blog, the intent was I might talk about MMORPGs, or politics, or hell... even religion. Since my departure over the last few years, I've really lost interest in all three subjects.
So, not sure what direction this blog is going to go. Most likely it will be something along personal lines, but I am still not certain.
I'll at least try to keep it entertaining... but I make not promises as to how often I post....

Oh, The Money is Rolling
Since the beginning of this blog, I've made a massive 77 cents from the ads. I just wish I knew how to get rid of them.
Just amazing....
I got two bitches to air tonight... one, is the ads here. I have tried to remove them, and Goggle is being a dick about it.
The other, I had to do back flips to get logged into my account. Why the hell should it be so hard? But, then I suppose the rest of my life requires effort too....
Oh well.

Holy sheets.... 3 years already?!?
My my, how the time does fly. I can not believe it has been so long since I last posted on this crappy blog of mine.
Well... I'm kinda back, so... hopefully the postings will happen more often now.
I reread all my previous posts, and it astounds me how much I am not the person that started this pig back 5 years ago. Amazing.
Anyway, let my get settled in, and I shall attempt to pick up where I left off, and hopefully not with too much of the FaceBook 'weepy woe is me' shit that some blogs have become.
;)
See ya soon.

WoW... Not So Much Anymore....
Well, I've just about sworn off MMORPGs. I still have an active WoW account, but I've not been on it in nearly a week. I canceled my EvE Online account, and will eat glass before I ever play CoH/V again.
What's a disciple of the almighty silicon chip to do? I'll tell you what... it's to grab some emulators for old console games, and revisit my younger days of joy. I've been playing the hell out of some old Sega Genesis console games. Yes, I realize the games are probably older than the average McDonald's worker, but I don't care. The graphics might suck in today's standards, but the game design and sheer addictiveness has not been matched in the last 12 yrs.
And it was free... and if I can play a fun game for free, or choose to play a ho-hum game for $15/month... guess which way I am going.
Suck it, Blizzard... ya should'e stayed making RTS games...

My Man-gina is Itching...
I don't know what's become of me lately. I've really become emotional in regards to things that I would think only women would. Things like hearing sad items on the news, or an animal being done wrong, or an innocent child losing a parent...
I'm not sure if it is age, booze, booze-induced premature aging, or if I finally grew a soul.
*shrug*

Sometimes Nature Just Sucks...
The other day, I am sitting on the back porch, smoking away and this baby bird comes running right up to me. I dont know if this thing is rabid, or retarded. So I continue to enjoy my lung lancer, and watch. The bird does not seem to be in any hurry to go anywhere. He's just sitting there, looking at me.
So, my one weakness kicks in... That being I can not stand to see an animal suffer. I am assuming the bird fell from it's nest (it was still too young to fly). I scooped it up into protective custody. I had no idea how to care for it, so I called the vet hospital.. and was told they had no clue how to care... for ... a bird?!? Apparently, unless you are a dog, cat, or ferret.. you dont want to get sick here as the vets dont have a fucking clue on how to care for you. Anyway...
So I finally get in contact with some people (wildlife folks) that seem to know what they are talking about when it comes to baby birds. It seems that this is a baby robin, and his being on the ground that this point in his life was normal, and I should just release him. Which I did.
I found his corpse in the parking lot 2 days later.
And I actually wept. Real tears. Because I had him safe, and I let him go... and he died.
There is a lesson in there somewhere... I'm just not sure what it is yet.
