I thought Tuesday was a release day?  I mean really.  Totally new game day, right?  Isn't Assassin's Creed supposed to come out today?

Apparently not.  Which stinks.  I get a half day once a week at the office (it makes up for working all weekend several weekends a month, in my book).  This day is Tuesday.

Last weekend I only admitted one patient to my service, which meant it was a SLOW weekend.  Constantly checked the pager to make sure I wasn't missing calls.

But, what I got was a heartbreaker.

Hanging a beeper on your side means one of three things.  1.) You're a drug dealer - though most of these folks have moved exclusively to cell phones, a few hang on to the "old ways" and use beepers.  2.) You have an obsession with things from the 1990s, when beepers were king.  Not as illegal as #1, but still somewhat creepy.  3.) You're a medical/emergency professional of some sort.  In my case, #3 is true, as you can tell from the avatar.

Well, if that's how the LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga lays it down in the manual, it should be good.  Its irreverent IN PRINT!

Can't wait to pop this baby in.

Gaming is a bit of a hobby and an obsession.

I've been playing games since we had a computer in the house.  My father got me "Zork", which might have been a grave mistake, in retrospect.  I never got very far, without the hint book.  A friend got "Sword of Glass", which while a horrible game, was a step up from ASCII-driven adventure games we had played to that point, like "Empire".  A few friends had an early local guild on a BBS playing "TradeWars 200".
