The inevitable return

This picture doesn't have much to do
with anything. But enjoy! It's from
Walking Dead Episode Two
Miss me yet? Probably not, but I'm back and I'm going to try to have fun with this.

Where have I been you may ask? Oh, just living. Practicing my runing for the Warrior Dash and Run for Your Lives; taking part in geeky activities; and playing the games and loving life in general. It has been a good time for me, which might explain the lack of writing. You know, I'm out doing stuff instead of just writing about it.

But now, now I'm going to try to do both. Live my life and record it too, for posterity and hopefully for a few giggles here and there.

One thing I accomplished during my absence is that I actually finished another video game. I know, I know, that makes what? Maybe eight total that I've ever completed now? But this game was so well worth it. I beat Heavy Rain, which is a game that meshed just perfectly with my weird panache for exploring every single thing on a screen. I also earned quite a few trophies on my first playthrough, including the Nerd title and the award for keeping everyone alive. For me, this represents some madskillz.

I also played the second chapter of The Walking Dead with my boyfriend. If you haven't played it yet, I recommend you do. It's not fun and action, but it's thought and character development, and adds some nice additional stories to the parts you may already know and love. For someone like me, who hasn't been able to read the comics yet, it's even more enjoyable and a pretty good standalone tale. The facial expressions are super impressive, considering it's drawn in a comic book style, and the voices are superb. Seriously, it's pretty cheap. If you weren't thrilled with Chapter One, go ahead and give the second part a chance. Well worth it.

Braiiiinnnnn Food: What games have you played while I've been away?
