I really have to get better at updating this thing.
Well to the meat and potatoes of my posts for now: Current Games: WoW, yes the bug bit me again, and Battlefield Heros. I did a short stint on Ghostbusters, but beat that in a day. Still working on reading the Wheel of Time, there is alot of material in that, and its been very busy with work and life recently.
So now that the generalities of my time have been posted, I'm looking forward to a trip to Cedar Point with my wife and my brother coming up towards the end of the month. Its been a long time since I have gotten away to a proper amusment park. And its my brothers first time to this park. So it should be a good time, for those that may not know cedar point is a park that has most likely the highest density of roller coasters per capita than any other park around.
Well time for lunch, i'll try to catch up to this again another time.

Into the Brink
So, yet again another long break between updates... and of course plenty of things to talk about. Firstly I'm now married, quite happily. Before anyone goes down the the road of thinking that i'll be giving up gaming... no worries...
Still gaming a lot, although the genre has changed a bit, I'm more into action RPG games at the moment: Fallout 3 being very big for me, as well as Fable 2. I've also gotten back into reading some good books, The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, which has been keeping me pretty occupied.
On the horizon for me though the next game I'll be going for is the new Tom Clancy End War game, the new voice control system is very entriging, and I have found it to be quite engaging, so after I finish my current game I should be moving on to this one.
Anyways I'm jetting again, I'll update again when I get a chance.

End of the School Year blast
I have come to the conclusion that things never go as planned, for all the time I was in school as a kid I never thought I would come back, but alas the fates have conspired... and now I work in one full time.
That being said, the end of the school year is rapidly approaching... and I have to say that it should be a blast as it arrives... Lots of work goes into schools over the summer and I never quite relized how much until now. Although the best part of the summer is that the kids wont be here and we can have some fun while we work without worring about the kids being here all the time.
Still playing WoW alot... and that has become quite the fun activity for me these days finially made it to 54, and i'm almost halfway to 55... I think I might make it to 70 before the new expansion... which should be quite nice.
Anyways... Till next time...

The year in review: Part 1
This post is going to be a bit on the long side, but all things like this tend to be that way.
Movies:
Well this year has been good for me on the movie front, Just got done seeing I am Legend, which was great. Also picked up an HD dvd drive, a great buy I might add.
There was alot of movies this year that were all pretty good, In January you had Epic Movie, which for the people that like that style film was so so, but it had its moments. Feburary saw Breach, which was a fantastic film, March had Wild Hogs, and Zodiac, the new Ninga turtles movie. March had Live Free or Die, and Blades of Glory. April had Grind House, Hot Fuzz, and a bunch of crap movies. May which might be one of my favorite months for the obvious reasons had Spider man 3, and thats about it that was decent. June saw Surf's Up, and Hostel: Part 2, Ratatouille, Live Free or Die Hard, Evean Almighty, it was one heck of a movie month.
The list goes on, Transformers, License to Wed, the Simpsons, I now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Hot Rod, Underdog, Superbad, American Gangster, Beowulf, Alvin and the Chipmunks, and still coming up we have National Treasure: Book of secrets, and Sweeney Todd.
Overall I saw most of these films at home, or will be seeing them there soon. I think overall it has been a good year for movies, not all of the ones I listed were the greatest, but they were entertaining, and I think that is the important part. In the next part of the Year in review we will take a look at my thoughts on the video games that have come out, I think i'll try my hand at a top ten list for that one though, and try to keep the list a little smaller.

Major Update, and Major life Changes
Well its been awhile again, and wouldn't you know, this time i'll blame my friends, work and games for keeping me away.
Work has been alot of fun lately, not quite as busy as I have been this year, which is good. Its nice to have time to think and clear your thoughts and to focus on the future. My friends have been keeping me very busy at night though, My one friend got me to join him in team fortress 2 online. That has been a long struggle to get me to commit to.( and of course as soon as I do the group he plays with breaks for the holiday) Another of my friends just dragged me to best buy a few hours ago to buy a football game to play with him. And some of my other friends have been getting me to go out with them and my fiancée to all sorts of places.
All in all its been a great few months. The getting engaged, running around alot, finally going out and living life up a bit.
The gaming has been great as well. Assassins Creed, BioShock, Super Mario Galaxies, Mass Effect, the list goes on. Coming up in the next few months I dont have too many new titles to look at, Burnout Paradise is about the only thing on my radar for now. With the writers strike I accutally have some time to look into finishing alot of my old games that I have been putting aside for some time. So its time to see my gamerscore completion ratio close the gap a bit. If any of you would like to play some games, my gamertag is Terin85. Until next time, hopefully it will be sooner than later...

Work Work and more Work
Hey hey hey,
Welcome back to another exciting update from Terin!!! Well instead of games this time its work that has kept me busy for months on end. It seems to me that regular postings are something that are going to plague me for a long time to come. Recently I have been all over the place with work, and I picked up a 360 finally... Looking forward to assasins creed. Well I have to jet again, catch up with this again later, I hope.

It's Been a while... games Games and games
Well the semester is winding down... Almost done, and its almost time to get into working this site, and blog a lot more. For fun today its time to talk about the games that keep me sane. Right now I'm playing into a few choice titles. On the Wii, and yes I have one, I'm in tiger woods 07, On my PC I'm laying in heavy on Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO). I'm also going retro and playing a bunch of old RTS games from way back there. But far and above LOTRO is the big kicker.
I'm playing on Elendilmir, I have a Kinship there, called The Warriors of the Aratar. The level cap in that game is about to move from 15 to 50, and thats going to be fun. I'll have if things go as planned, 2 characters ready to roll from the 15 point forward.
Thats what has been keeping me busy, I'm rolling out for now... Till next time.
