So my holidays were over 3 weeks or so ago. I spent most of it watching tv I got through

• Season 1-5 Two and a half men
• Season 3-4 the pretender
• Season 1-3 Seaquest
• Season 1-2 Weeds.
• Season 1ish of Batman the brave and the bold

I also saw X-men Origins: Wolverine and Star trek while on holidays both good movies.

X-men Origins: Wolverine is the story above Wolverines past and how he gets his adamantium skeleton, escapes looses his memory and all that. It was a good action flick with some great special effects and nice fight scenese. It lost some points with me because it wasn’t accurate to what I am aware of with wolverine and some of the supporting cast’s histories it gets 3.5/5 thumbs up.

star trek was great it was an excellent reboot and I think it will draw non trekkies to future star trek movies it was just well done all round. The cast did a good job of bringing traits from the original characters to the movie (especially bones) the special effects were good my only gripes are some of what they portrayed was stupidly insulting (atomspheric entry jump?) and that they had to use time travel yet again..however the purpose of the reboot was to also setup an alternate reality and time line so i guess it was needed. It gets 4.5/5 thumbs up.

I also played wolverine on the pc and beat it..twas a fun game with some ok graphics and some nice violence. I bought stalker in the last week of holidays for #10 but haven’t played it much…such a good deal thoug

I saw the hangover last Sunday it was pretty funny 3.2/5 thumbs up from me

Nana died a week ago tomorrow, I went to Sydney on Thursday and spent time with the family before attending the funeral on Friday. The service was short (30mins) and sans religious bullshit which was nice..after we went to pops for drinks and nibbles until later in the night.

I spent the next 2 days down in Sydney with family and visited other grandparents and went to nieces 1st bday party (dumb idea)

Umm yeah done.

So i have been playing much spore, several 2:30am bed times due to the game. I have in the past few days started playing The Witcher as well its an interesting RPG that uses the NWN2 engine and so far has been fun.

I finished watching S4 of b5 with Raina on monday that was good now we have S5 to watch (erk) and then I have to find something else.

I saw Wall-E on sunday it was amusing I would give it 3/5 thumbs up.

DO NOT watch the Break up..if you have already I’m sorry I too wish I could get that time of my life back..if you haven’t don’t watch it, it sucks.

In other news, I have mostly been working and gaming. I finished watching highlander the other day all 6 seasons watched..not too bad. I have been watching heroes each week as well as smallville, supernatural and eureka i have to say I hate the one episode a week thing but I LOVE not waiting until it airs in Australia three cheers for BT.

Recently bought games include Prey, GTA: Vice city, True crimes and I downloaded the SWG trial (4.4GB fun!). Prey is interesting and fun, you never really die you just goto a spirit realm where you can come back…well after a certain point in the game. GTA is well GTA its good fun with plenty of cars and violence, true crims is similar to gta. SWG is a Star Wars MMO and so far i have had fun tonnes o quests and I am a jedi…who has force lightning (all do) which is alwas good.

Oh I had 2 days of work this week sick..even though I was sick it was so nice not to goto work.

Umm thats it.
