What to say?

Well I am kinda at a loss here today about what I want to ramble and rant about. There has been so much said about so much already after all.

So today I am going to talk about something I really like. Skyrim! Yes! What a great game. I have bought four copies of that game. Yes, I know. I got mine and really got into it so I also bought the DLC, Dragonborn, Dawnguard and Hearth Fire. The copy I had was used so much that the center ring broke all to pieces and I was worried about using it further. So I got a new one for myself.

Then my son REALLY wanted to play it too so I got him his own copy so he would leave mine alone.

Now, the 360 version that I usually plays tends to lock up my console and since I rarely ever turn on my 360 anymore I got a copy for the PC. So I am playing through it all new again and really enjoying it. And yes, I got the game of the year version with the DLC.

Now, you maybe at this point asking your selves, "Why are you re-playing a game you have already played so much?". Well the simple answer would be because I really got hooked on it. You can role play a custom character through a realm spanning adventure using swords, bows and magic!

One play through I used nothing but a bow. I died a bunch yes, but I leveled up and got stronger and it was so much fun!

Another I used nothing but magic and equipment that helped with magic. It was okay, but I missed my melee weapons.

Sometimes I play through using two handed weapons and heavy armor. Sometimes one handed and light armors. It just depends on what I am feeling and how I want to play. Sometimes I go along with the story line in perfect order, doing each quest as I get it.

Sometimes  I just play through wandering, doing random quests and exploring the realm. Never doing the main story quest, just leveling and killing bandits and undead!

So I guess really the thing about the game that gets me is that's it kind of like going back and playing D&D. Yeah, I still have my books as well!

The game just looks nice, plays nice and I can get lost in it for a couple of hours of fun and excitement. And yes, even replaying it I still enjoy it all over again! Somethings I look forward too, some I don't and put off or just never do.

I really need to stay on top of things!

Well, since it has been now, years, since I have updated this blog perhaps it's time for a new post yes?

Do people still read blogs? I mean I have heard of professional bloggers before but what is that really? I mean, I am just a guy with a big mouth and a keyboard! Can I get paid to spew my thoughts over the internet? Yeah, probably not. However we all need that little dream right? Sadly being a paid blogger is not one of mine.

So, do I have a dream? Do I lay awake at night dreaming of some big thing that I want to have happen in my life? Do I slumber with thoughts of grander things for myself? Well, I am a pretty down to Earth sort of a person so not really. Kinda strange to meet someone like that right?

I mean I have seen myself doing certain things here and there through my life. But I never had that "DREAM" of what I really wanted too do. Perhaps that is why I don't really have a drive to accomplish anything. I am happy with the way things are and the direction my life has gone.

Perhaps I should dream about updating this blog more often? Maybe posting pictures of cats or something? Nah, that wouldn't be me at all. I am just going to do what I have always done.

Use this space for my rantings and ramblings as I see fit!

Perhaps I will actually break down and play the lottery and see if I can win and then get some sort of dream thing going. However, at that point would it be a dream? No, I think it would then be a reality and I would be left right where I am now. No dream but all the money I would need to make it happen right?

Well, I am by no means cash rich. I don't really know anyone who is. However, I am very happy with the way things are in my life right now. I have my family, my wife and son. I have my books, computers and video games. What more does a person need? I have a roof over my head, food to eat (if I don't mind cooking it anyway) and clothes to wear. That puts me way ahead of a lot of people.

So Do I want to get paid for writing this? No way! Too much pressure! With the ways things are now, I can come here when I want and rant about what I want too! Way more fun and much more enjoyable if you ask me! Plus, I don't have to keep sponsors happy and I can say what I want about what I want too!
