Shared on Sun, 07/13/2008 - 16:16My lazy weekend has been a much needed rest. I went out for some fun in the sun today, but spent most of the time lounging in the backyard with friends. We made Lemonade Zippers! You start to feel warm and relaxed in two sips. Well I do, cause I'm delicate...lol
I finished one book this weekend. For some reason, I keep putting down "Brave New World" to read something else. I like its clever writing style, but for some reason, it's not holding my attention. In order to fully appreciate the novel, I have to remind myself that all of the seemingly trite plot elements were actually quite new for this book. All of it was copied so much over the years, it sounds tired now. Even the more widely read "1984" took a lot fom this earlier work; might have improved many of the concepts, but certainly borrowed heavily. I'm half way through. I just need to 'do it' and finish it up. It's my goal by the end of this week to have it completed.
I made a promise to my 12th grade teacher that I would read it. She'd be happy to know I'm trying.
On the Okami frontline: I love feeding the piggys (aka boars). Maybe it's because I can relate....LOL... oink oink...LOL. I haven't had anything too frustrating with the Wii remote, yet. No problems drawing circles, lines, bombs or anything, yet. The most I had to do is draw something twice. Now, the part I'm not thrilled with is the game is a bit too easy. OK, it's real easy. That said, it's still (at this time) a strong 9. The Wii paint brush is too much fun. I like the music so much, I'm going to order the soundtrack.
Enjoy what's left of the weekend.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a zipper to drink. . .
