Quarter to four on a Thursday.

Might be rehearsing tonight, might not. Made some progress over cake and tea last evening, working more and more on a total lack of acting ability in my character; harder than you'd thgink, you non-actors out there, to make the audience believe YOU are a genius and generally-not-so-bad guy, but your character is a flub.

Would really like to purchase a 360 this week, doubt it will be possible. I might be able to borrow money form my father until I can pay him back with showmoney, but he'll probably cite being broke/a loser to get out of it. Not that I really deserve a loan; if I had managed myself properly I could get one without any outside influence. But I'm lazy and I like shiny things, so there's no use lamenting my non-having.

E3 has been exciting this week, though I still can't get over to PS3 controller just being a motion-sensitive, wireless PS2 controller. I know a lot of people out there really love the dualshock (Itself a PSOne controller with double analog sticks.) and there is something to be said for keeping a consistant controller for a fan base, but the 360 controller is a good example of an upgrade that adds new features while maintaining the core working elements of the previous generation. The other side of this, of course, is nintendo's controllers which have been drastically different with each generation. The Wii controller sounds sort of cool, but most of the first party games I've been reading about seem to have little to evolution past their gamecube iterations other than the nunchuk peripheral support.

I've been feeling really out of shape this past week, alternately sick and weak and unmotivated. Finishing school pulled a rug out from under me that even doing CGS isn't fixing. I should start working out, I guess, but I don't really feel like it. I have been writing a lot more, though, as this site can attest, so that's good.

Damn I want to play Oblivion...
