Faith. Life. Gaming.
I am one of the few, the proud, but not one of the gaming Marines who have stormed the blocky beaches of Minecraft. Now, with the help of developer/creator @Notch and PC Gamer magazine, I can experience Minecraft in a 90 minute demo. This is one of those games I am afraid to even delve into.
Lately, I have been slowly playing through Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP (link will open iTunes) on the iPad.
The game doesn’t seem so much a game but an experience. The visuals and music blend to create a pretty interesting fantasy world. So far though, I have enjoyed the soundtrack (link will open iTunes) much more than the game. The music is epic, haunting, and overall catchy. I like it. Not sure if this is a game that I will end up recommending but I will for sure recommend it’s soundtrack.
Today I talked with a man who had recently purchased 1 million Iraqi dinar’s (basically $1,220.00 USD). He is hoping that the currency appreciates as Iraqi’s oil-backed economy grows. Makes perfect sense, right? Sure… Speculation aside, this entire deal has “get rich quick scheme” written all over it. Which leads me to ask:
What have you invested in that has/ has not panned out?
Supposedly a storm moved through the city last night but I don’t believe it. Beyond a few puddles of water leftover this morning, I never heard a thing.
Shortly after 3:30am, after the “storm” had moved through, my stomach woke me up. It was hot underneath the covers so I threw them off. I laid there for awhile feeling my stomach roll around like a dog. At one point, I thought I heard my son cry out. Time went by and I couldn’t go back to sleep. So I just laid there hoping that eventually dreams would find me once more. The rest of my night was a blur. I think I slept off and on. Rough night.
Today is one of those writer’s block days. There are so many ideas vaguely swirling around in my mind, that I can’t quite grasp onto any of them. Currently swirling down the drain are thoughts on:
