Lali ho.
As you know, I've been a bit buzzy lately having recently had the chance to speak to that 'one that got away'. And if you've not been keeping track, this one got away about as far as she could get thanks to her evil controlling ass hat of a stepfather, and is now on the opposite side of the planet from me. Mildly problematic for relationship purposes, but since I've come back from the dead before a simple relocation shouldn't be much of a challenge, right?
Well, she's been having trouble with her boyfriend lately. It started as the usual minor problems (IE: him being a lazy gobshite) but if what I'm hearing is true, it's become something far more significant. Rumours state that following a blazing row the two are temporarily separated, potentially permenantly. What's even more odd is that if my intel is correct, this is supposedly the push she needed to realise 'where she belongs' and apparantly she's decided to come back to England. To which I can only say...
EPIC FUCKING WIN.
Of course I wish my beloved friend no harm in any way, but to be fair the guy was a complete cockstain. One of those stereotypical university types. Lazy, ignorant, drugs and booze, no respect for my friend at all, never took her out to dinner or anything. Expects her to work a full day then come home, clean everything, cook, sort out all the problems in the flat, etc. All while he sits and does nothing. Or goes out drinking. There is literally NO REASON for them to be together. I've been discussing the matter with her sister for the last few hours and the only reason we could come up with for how they ever got together in the first place is that he's the spitting image of someone she always respected.
Me.
Seriously, while he shares none of my sense of honour and decency, and as a person is about as far removed from me as he could possibly get, he does look suspiciously like me. Or rather how I looked a few years ago. The hair, the stance, everything. He looks like a cheap imitation of me. Like I was made by artists and he was found in some run-down London back alley. Sorry to sound arrogant but he really can't hold a candle to the real thing. And it's not just me that thinks so, apparantly. If what I've heard is true, one phrase deployed in the blazing row was 'Maybe I should send you to England, so you can learn how to be a real man'. Might seem innocuous but consider that I am the only guy she kept in contact with here in the UK. Obvious link is obvious.
I'll keep my eye on the situation for the time being. I want what's best for her, which in this case would be for him to suddenly vanish from reality entirely like he was erased by this guy...
But I'd settle for her coming back to England so I can correct my mistakes.
In other news,
- I may finally be able to justify the cost of my 3DS soon. I traded in Pilotwings and Samurai Warriors out of necessity a few days ago (no money, bills to pay, nothing else would suffice) but I never really played them. I only play Ridge Racer and SSF4 in short bursts. But the next few months should help. DOA, Zelda, Resident Evil Mercenaries, it's starting to look much better. Slowly but surely. I think the problem is that the 3DS doesn't really have a Tetris, if you will. Not the actual Tetris game, but a game released with it that is so amazingly great that you simply can't put down the system for days on end, like Tetris did for the original Gameboy. But give it time and I think the system will be a force to be reckoned with.
- Frigid ice bitch Shivali at work is now responsible for Debbs leaving, and several others are now actively looking for new work to avoid her. Comes to something when you're such a twat people are quitting their jobs to get away from you. I can only hope at some point she grows up, gets over herself and starts to act like a human being. But I doubt it. She hates me because every time she starts whining I refer to it as 'the cry of a soul without light.' I'll give you a cookie if you get it.
- Trying to find a cheap copy of Just Cause 2 for Xbox 360. PAL, obviously. Anyone know any good places to look? Ebay's unreliable and most of the sites I've seen aren't any noteworthy discount on buying it at my local store. And I'm poor. But I broke my old copy and I really want to staple somebody to a jet fighter then fly it into an oil refinery. I'm just like that.
- I've discovered the games on my Samsung Galaxy S, or more specifically the Android app market. Quite a few have been enjoyable so far. Hungry Shark, a simple tilt controlled game in which you swim around munching everything. Alchemy, a puzzle game based on combining things. Slice It, another puzzler in which you have to cut shapes into a set number of similar sized pieces with a set number of cuts. And Sniper, a touch controlled shooter. Simple but fun. And mostly free. Except the full version of Hungry Shark which I paid a whopping 2 pounds for. And it's brought me more joy that a lot of the £45 triple A Xbox titles. Just goes to show you should never ignore the little guys in the corner.
- Search for my name on Youtube. Lots of wolf related antics uploaded. I have a few more standing by but my phone's wi-fi is being a drama queen.
Well, I guess I should get some sleep. Although there's really no point as I'm not back at work until next weekend, so I could stay up until I fall down unconscious and it'd have little impact on life as a whole. But whatever. Just sent a few texts out to a few key people (at half one in the morning but whatever, besides it's half one in the afternoon for one of them) so I can't think of any good reason to remain awake. G'night 'temp, and toodles.
Blaze.
'You don't honestly expect to beat me, do you? Oh, you poor deluded fool.' - Me, explaining to Shivali that fighting me on anything is never wise.
