OK, this won't be very long.  New year, new ideas, new illness.  But it also means it's time for me to begin writing again.  I figure if I can get into the habit of writing as often as possible, then maybe I will start to get over the writers block.  This?  This isn't affected...effected...hmmm...this is not altered by my writers block because this is just my random thoughts.  They just flow out.  My wife told me they are about five minutes behind.  Thanks dear.  She's right you know.  I'm getting over some sort of illness.  Coughing and poor sleep and the like.  I keep saying I'm not sick.  It's just that I'm not well.  HA!



Man, I used to rock out to that on Karaoke night. I think I should find somewhere to go do Karaoke again...but it can't be a country bar. I just don't fit in well.  I was about to say something else, but I looked down and thought that the piece of foil was shiny.  Then I noticed my Blizzard Authenticator.  I use it to make sure no one steals my awesome stuff in Warcraft.  Big thanks to Nathan for getting me some super cool gear.  That's worth at least 480 props.  I need to find out if we are still saving up our props to buy yachts.

So, I think I'm going to play some Vagrant Story before going to sleep.  There's something fun about old PlayStation games.  I don't care about graphics when the game-play is awesome.  That game is freakin' awesome.  I make my own weapons, kill dragons and zombies, and I fight evil crusaders.  I also solve puzzles!

We've been watching Law & Order: Criminal Intent.  I'm glad Corey is around to explain some of the psychology stuff to me.  Very twisted entertainment.  I'm starting to ramble.  Well, ramble more than ever.  I just started staring at my fingers so I'll end here.  Happy New Year!!!

P.S. - In case you want to read my most recent work, check it out here.

So, this song has been stuck in my head. It is all that revolution in the air. That, and the song is catchy.

Otherwise, I have been playing Warcraft. Escaping reality. Life is just a fantasy, can't you live this fantasy life? I'm off like a...a...I need a new phrase.

Well, I took a little break from posting over the long weekend. Just did stuff. However, I had a thought. OK, I had many thoughts.
One of them was that I got some awesome gear in Warcraft for my warlock.  Pretty awesome.  I'm a video game junkie of sorts.  I'm big on old school games, like dominating "NES Play Action Football", and RPGs.  Role Playing Games.  Now, get your mind out of the gutter.  They are some of the most intelligent games around.  Most of the ones I play are also now old school.  Role Playing Games let you immerse yourself into the story.  Some are played with dice on a table top.  Most of them I play anymore are video games.  I play a lot of older games, like Final Fantasy I-XII, though honestly, after IX they have gone steadily downhill.  Now, I also play World of Warcraft, an MMORPG.  I know, it's a mouthful.  For those who don't know what that means, it means "Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game".  It means that when I log in, I can team up with friends to go defeat monsters and defend our homeland.  Even my wife and I can team up and go defend Gnomes and Dwarfs.  Why?  It's fun.  It's a little escape from everyday life.  Also, you have to use teamwork, strategy, and you have to pay attention to a lot of instructions and dialogue if you want to get the most out of the game.
There, I've said my bit about RPGs.  They are like reading a book that you get to interact with.  Like "choose your own adventure" without peeking to see if you chose wrong.
I now turn my attention to something that has been bugging me for a while.  I write.  At least I used to.  Now I write a little, but not as much as I used to.  Why?  I'm not sure.  I have to ask my self "What am I waiting for?".  To help with that is The Bravery with "Believe"



What are we waiting for? Why don't we do things we want to do?  I need to write more.  It doesn't matter what, as long as I enjoy it.  I need to use my life to inspire my writings.  I write short stories that just come out of thin air.  I write poetry that comes from deep within.  I write inspiration with hopes that at least one person gets something from it.  I write because I want to, and because of that, I should keep writing.  I have decided I need to really get my head back in the game.  I can't just say "I don't have time" because you can always make time for what you like to do.  If you can't, you're doing something wrong.

Sometimes my work makes me want to cry.  Not because it hurts my brain, or is difficult.  I enjoy a challenge.  The sadness comes from making something I feel is aesthetically pleasing and offers dynamic features for a website, and it becomes a black and yellow mess.  Now, for those of you expecting me to play the black and yellow song, no sir.  I don't want to think about black and yellow.  It makes me want to cry.  So here to express how I feel is Godley & Creme with "Cry". 



Now, at least I got an epic cloak in Warcraft.  Yeah!

OK, so this is actually yesterday's random thoughts. What is this blog really about? Well, I have completely random thoughts that become long strings of random thoughts. Yesterday I found a site called WhoSampled.com and it was awesome. Here's how it went down.

I had been out herbing on my Draenei priest listening to a Pandora station that was based on Dr.Dre. Now, as I was listening to Gangsta Rap picking flowers, I started to think I recognized some of the music. One such song was "California Love". Turns out the entire beat is from a Joe Cocker song.



Now, as anyone that's listened to "California Love" will immediately recognize the beat. I have the sudden urge to mix the two together, but I think I'd best leave that up to Colin. So now I've been looking over the WhoSampled site and thinking that Herb Alpert really could have made a killing just writing beats for rap stars. Well, it at least got my herbing up. World of Warcraft and Gangsta Rap for the win. Epic. I'll fill you in on today's thoughts later.
