Beta-testing 'Turning Point'...

...because the dev team and production companies didn't bother.

The earlier gaming MSM reviews were correct - Turning Point has so many glitches and bugs I don't know where to begin. Even in the first 'act' I was hit by a problem that blocked my character from picking up the weapons. No amount of pressing and holding 'X' would work. The only thing was to restart from the last checkpoint and hope.

ZZZZzzzz....

<yawn>

In other daily blathering, the diet, exercise and loss continue. My digestive distress took a turn for the worse, so I took a sick day. Now the rest of my body isn't feeling very good either so maybe I'm coming down with that flu that is making the rounds. I guess this will test my willpower to stay on the diet.

Eclecticism...

Go ahead, tell me that chart doesn't reflect eclecticism. And more is on the way.

On the gaming front, I picked up DDR Universe 2 yesterday and gave it some play. My initial reaction is that I have a strong dislike for the controller pad. For some reason I don't tend to be able to hit the back arrow pad very effectively, but maybe with practice I'll learn to hit it.

Grrrrr! FPL!!

Well, It seems our weekly power outage came early this week. Tuesday afternoon is possibly better than Friday evening. Ok, better for most working people, not especially good for me and anyone else working an odd shift or unemployed. I had to complete the remainder of my shower in the dark then wander around a dark condo until I found a flashlight. I just hope the power is up before the debate tonight on MSNBC, it is the only MSM channel my condo association will not allow.

Seven days...

Wooooooot!

It has been seven days since I started exercising. Seven days of riding +10 miles, and one day of riding 22 miles (with my body saying "don't even think about doing that again for a couple weeks!"). How many for more day ahead? Dunno. Just keeping on the go.

What?! No farking way...!

So I played some Clive Barker's Jericho last night. Kind of an odd game, but I think I need a walkthrough to understand what is going on and the controls. I'll see if I have time this afternoon to spend some more time playing. Gotta get my quality gaming time in before my workweek starts.

I thought I was good for a 20 mi ride yesterday, then decided against it. Today I'm looking at the wind and my route choices and I might take the chance on doing the 20. I have to get this right and not let my body think the 20 is normal or the 10 will lose effectiveness.
