Yeah…I’m alive
Been quite some time since I updated this thing. Life has been really hectic and busy. Finally settling down into a routine. Well for now at least. So I moved out to west TN near Nashville. Was out there for a few months. I liked it out there but things did not really work out. Lost a really good friend over the whole move but it was his fault not mine. But what can you do. Now I am back in east TN near Knoxville. Things are going pretty well here.
I went back to work for Walmart but I got hired on full time this time. I work 3rd shift and I’m the dairy guy. I like working 3rds a lot more then I did 1st. Less stress and drama. I am just able to come in do my job and go home. Well on most nights. Things have been decent on the home front. We have our own house now. We being my mother, brother, sister, and myself. Soon it will be just me and my brother Terrence though.
Still mostly spend my spare time watching movies and playing games. Did read or well listened to a book recently though. Just a Geek by Wil Wheaton. This was a great book and do not actually think I would of got the same experience if I read it instead of listening to the audio version. He did all the narration on the book and I have to say that’s a big part of what made it so good. So if you get a chance I would defiantly pick this up. I plan on picking up his other books as well he has 3 or 4 out. Also I read his blog a lot to, lots of good things there.
So I have jumped back into Warhammer Online again. They have really improved things. They have 4 really populated and even balanced servers. Only thing that really needs to be improved in end game content, but they are addressing this and have an expansion coming out that is going to release a lot of new content. So I am pretty excited for that. I almost have my Knight of the Blazing Sun to level 40 hes sitting at 37 right now. Been working on an engineer and warrior priest as well. I think I am going to try and stick with this game till the new Star Wars MMO comes out. Not sure though the new Final Fantasy MMO is looking better and better to me. We will see.
Well that is really all I have for now. Going to try and keep this thing updated more now. We will see how that goes as well.

Ready for a new year
So I made it home. I didn’t make it home for Christmas really but made it home right after. I was only able to be there a day but was better then nothing and it was good to see all my family and so on. I hope to make it back home again soon. I have been sick the past week haven’t felt well at all in fact on Christmas day I felt horrible and just tried to sleep a lot. I am getting better now though little by little. So this past year has been really rough. Not really a good year at all. Other then the fact that I moved back here to Oak Ridge and made some really good friends. The new year is right around the corner though. I hope this one is a lot better then the last. I have been in a bit of a depression as of lately. I hope to get out of all that. So a few goals for this new year. 1. Get out on my own. 2. Try to be more patience and keep myself better under control. 3. Get some kind of plan like to go back to school or maybe something else. 4. Better Health
Those are just some things that I need to work on. For now that seems to be it. So here is to an awesome 2010.

Bleh
So the title is Bleh good reason for that. That is pretty much how I feel anymore. To start the flu/sick season is here in full force everyone is getting sick myself included. Hope all this passes really fast. As of lately I just havent felt right either. I like TN and such and like the people I have met here just kinda feel out of place at times though. Acourse that is pretty much anywhere I go. For the most part I stay to myself and am a bit of a loner. Probaly not going to make it home for the holidays for either Thanksgiving or Christmas and looks like my mom and brother and sister will be going up to Ohio during these as well. Which pretty much means ill be here alone my aunt and uncle will be here but none of my parents or siblings, grandparents so on. But it happens I am not to worried about it. Life goes on. Well that is it for now. Can not really think to clearly burning up and feeling kinda dizzy. Later.

So I have very much neglected to post any blogs as of lately. So here is an update. Work is going well. I made it through inventory, now for 2 months of pure hell till X-mas is over but hey it will be fun……not. Got my 90 day evaluation today. Everything went really well with it accept my boss says I am negative. Me negative? Nah never. Okay maybe a little. Anyhow over past few weeks made a couple new friends. Kyle whom I work with and his wife Michelle. They are awesome people who have really made life a bit better here. They have a little girl name Grace as well and a crazy little dog named cupcake. In the bad category my sister caught the swine flu and spent 4 days in the hospital. She is diabetic so catching this flu hit her even harder because we could not keep her sugar in tact at all. But she has gotten over it and now is back to school and driving everyone insane as usual. Nothing else really to report. Later.

Whatever
So what to talk about. Well lets see work has been going well I am very tired but I like working there good people. Been playing a lot of Champions when I can. I must say I wasn’t sure how much I would like this game but I am really enjoying it so far. I will probably try to write a review for it this coming week and get it up. Going to try and launch the movie site soon to if my buddy can get a good title picked out for it. If you haven’t checked out any music by the Zak Brown Band you should really download some of their music they are my new favorite artist. I have been sick this week I have had an headache for a straight week and a really bad cold and even had to miss a day or work. So that has sucked but i think I am pretty well over it at least I hope so. Well thats really all I got for now. Later

Tired,Bored,Annoyed
So been working a lot so I am very tired. Today was my first day off of two. So guess thats a good thing kinda. Even though its been kinda annoying being home because its been very boring. I get payed thursday I think I am going to buy Champions Online since it released today. So I added this new tool to my site here that will have twitter send out an update when I update my blog. Also will do a weekly blog of my twitter updates. So that is something fun to mess with. As I am typing this I might die from heat stroke though. This damn room upstairs and so hot that it is not even funny. So its now September seems like this year has flew by. This hasn’t been a very good year been a lot of shit that has went down. So we are already preparing for halloween at work. Then after that comes the craziest time of the year. The Thanksgiving/Christmas time. I don’t even want to think about it… Not sure if I will be able to get any time off work to go to Ohio for the holidays. Guess we will have to see. So in other news my phone is slowly dying. A very slow and painful death the touch screen is going out little by little buttons just randomly quit working. I really am going to have to get a new phone soon. Bleh… Well not a whole lot else to speak of. So for now Later.

Short Update
So what is there to say. Well as you know I started my new job at Wal-Mart. Which I must say I am really enjoying. Well at least as much as you can enjoy work. Best job I have had yet like it a lot more then I liked Kroger. Been working a lot though so haven’t had a lot of time for other things. As in this site for instance. Have not really played much WoW but Blizcon has been going on and looks like they got some cool things in store for WoW and so on. My dad and step-mother and brother all came down to Gatlinburg for a few days for vacation. I got to go spend some time with them that was a pretty good time. Within the next couple weeks I am hopeing to launch my movie review site with the help of my friend Jarrod. Will most more on that when I get it going. Really dont got much else to say. This is gonna be a really short blog. Anyhow just be looking for that new movie review site and maybe a few other things to if I have the time. Later.

New Job
So I have had a pretty productive week. Got a new job at Wal-Mart as a Groc. Clerk. So that’s good was in desperate need of a job. Been going bowling a lot trying to get back into the swing of things bowling with a finger tipped ball now. Spent a lot of the week watching Achievement Hunter TV. It was Achievement Hunters 1 year birthday so Knuckles Dawson celebrated by playing games all week live on the AHTV stream. It was a lot of fun he played all kinds of stuff. On the MMO front been trying to play some WoW again starting to get into it a bit. Not really much else to say. Short Blog. Maybe will have more to report later on in the week. Later
-Will
So my new things that I have been busy with this week is Achievement Hunter TV with your host Knuckles Dawson. Pretty much what this is Knuckles doing a live broadcast showing you how to get achievements on random games that he has chosen. If you get a chance he is doing one of these tomorrow at 1pm eastern time just click on the Achievement Hunter TV link to get there. But its fun, some times he does co-op with other people and such to but he is a lot of fun as he is doing this. If you like this you also need to check out the Achievement Hunter Site. There are tons of videos on here showing you how to get achievements on certain games. They are celebrating there 1 year anniversary this week so happy birthday Achievement Hunter. Anyhow another thing I have found this new podcast which I am completely addicted to. It is called Respawn Radio. You can find it on Itunes and Zune Marketplace. If you would stop by there and leave them a review if you listen to it that would be great to. Thanks! Anyhow your host is Lono with his co-hosts 8bitBass and Knuckles Dawson. Lono you might know his work from the site Sarcastic Gamer. Which he did awesome work there and really makes Respawn Radio his own. He is great has the podcast work and just really entertains you well. Knuckles you acourse know from Achievement Hunter. Then there is 8bit whom I really have no reference from but I can tell you he rocks hes really fun to watch and he does the editing on the podcast to and does awesome work there. When you put all 3 of there people together you just get a gaming podcast that is full of joking, sarcasm, Lono yelling at 8bit, 8bit rocking out on the bass, and some game talk when there is time lol. It is just an awesome range of things that really makes you look forward to this podcast coming out each and every week. Oh and you need to check out their new sponsor to its XFuel. It is an energy drink which I have yet gotten to try but all 3 of them have and they back it up 100%. But if you go to buy some use the code: respawn because it will benefit you in getting a 10% discount and benefit Respawn Radio. Anyhow check all this out its great stuff and like I said I believe it to be one of the best if not the best gaming podcast out there! So that’s it for now Later!

Random Dump
So my past week I have spent listening to Red vs Blue’s Drunk Tank podcast. You can download this podcast for free off zune marketplace and itunes and also you can get it from their site Red vs Blue. Which if you haven’t checked out red vs blue anyhow you need to. They do some awesome things over there and have an awesome community. But anyhow their podcast is the most random shit but it keeps you very entertained. Another good site to check out would be Ctrl+Alt+Del. This is a gaming comic made by Tim Buckley. It is a very good comic especially if you are a gamer. I read it religiously. Tim himself is a very stand up guy that trys to help charity and such whenever he can. My other web comic that I have to read religiously is 8-Bit Theater. It is basically about the first final fantasy game and kinda follows the plot exactly but in a crazy diabolical way where the main characters instead of saving the world more or less destroy it. So I have had a pretty good weekend had some family come down from Ohio and such and we had a cook out and that was a good time. Well accept for my back has been acting up and like killing me so I had been/still am a bit grumpy. Went swimming today that was fun hadn’t been swimming in awhile and it was fun to watch my baby cousin play in what had to be to him a giant bathtub. On bad news I think my phone is slowly dieing. My phone will no longer scroll down at all it will scroll up but not down so that makes stuff difficult. It also has a lot of static when I call people now so that sucks. Think I’m going to get a new phone soon though I hope. I started messing around on deviantART again. It is a fun site to get on because there is so much stuff to check out there. I get on there and check out people’s art and photos and then there are some awesome poems and stories to. It is a real fun community to. So if you are in to all of that or even got art and so on you want to share then check that site out. So as you may know im a huge MMO person. I had been playing Warhammer for the past few years but had to quit because its dieing very quickly and has kinda lost all of its fun. It really started going down hill after Mark Jacobs quit. I did a review on this game you can check it out here. But anyhow since I’ve lost Warhammer I might go and play World of Warcraft again for awhile. That is if I can stomach through it. What I really want to play is Champions Online. But its not out yet but will be pretty soon so I can play WoW to hold me over in till I have that to play. I just hope this game lasts and is as good as it looks. The City of Hero’s and City of Villain’s kinda died out really fast and this is kinda like that but I hope Champions does better. The game I really really want to play but will have to wait till 2011 to play is Star Wars: The Old Republic. When this game comes out I am going to be addicted. This game is the kind that takes peoples life over. I don’t know if you played the Star wars knights of the old republic 1 and 2 that were released on the original Xbox and computer. But these games were awesome rpgs some of the best rpgs I had ever played. This Old Republic MMO is going to be based off that and such so should be really good. It is also made by BioWare which is one of my favorite game developers so I am really looking forward to this MMO. Well not a whole lot else to say right now. I might go up to Ohio for a couple weeks. Not sure yet. Other then that not much else to say. So later.
