A while back Valve announced that their Steam platform was coming to the Mac. No reason to get excited yet. Now however it seems that means they’re also bringing Left 4 dead to the Mac. And that’s a big yay seeing as I’ve been told that’s a pretty sweet game. Unfortunately I’ll only be able to play it on the iMac as they don’t support the intel 900 chipset, so my Mini is left in the cold.
Hmm, I wonder how much the games are going to cost.
After getting my Alliance warlock up to level 68 in World of Warcraft I slowly started to get an itch that needed scratching. Don’t get me wrong, warlocks are awesome, but gameplay wise they (and many others) can get a bit annoying.
Random dungeons with sucky tanks and healers either just sucking or throwing hissy fits, needing groups to get certain quests done, things like that started to bother me more and more. So I’ve started again, as a Horde paladin, and life is good. I can solo everything, heal myself, tank myself and beat the crap out of everything I encounter while enjoying lots of armor and fiddling around with magic still.
It’s good to be a paladin.
It’s a sad day when the parody makes more sense than the original.

Our main mission today was checking out whereabouts in Maastricht the faculty for Arts & Culture was seeing as Katelynd’s probably going to start there in September.
Our sidemissions included eating icecream and enjoying the sunny day.
Bought these headphones today as the ones that came with my iPhone were getting a bit wonky. Excellent Sennheiser quality as to be expected, tons better than Apple’s. But I must admit I have to get used to these in-ear kind of things as it feels they suck a vacuum in your head. But at least I’ve got bass again. Although to be honest I hardly ever listen to music on the iPhone, but they’re great for handsfree phone conversations while driving.
The iPad has been released! And I still can’t think of why I would want one other than the cool new factor. I’m dreading the release of the iPhone 4G later this year though as I’m on a 2 year subscription for my 3G, and given how much I <3 the 3G I know I’m going to want the 4G.
World of Warcraft proves to be more of a timesink than I’d anticipated. It’s still seriously fun, level 66 and going strong.
Vacation was fun, chilling at Centerparcs. Archery was memorable, as well as kickin’ back in the pool with the Mrs. and the kids. Watching Amy splash about while Eve was running, crashing and diving everywhere and from everything like an unguided missile was awesome, regardless of my usual dislike of anything to do with swimming.
My contract got renewed for the next 2 years. Demanding job, but satisfying, and a boss who keeps pushing me to do better. Feels like I’ve got a career again instead of just a job.
So yeah, blogging. No time, no energy, but mostly too lazy because I’d rather play WoW. Checking out the themes available at the moment I still don’t see one that does what I want here, so I’ll probably continue spending the odd hour here and there working on the theme I’m using here. I’ve got a few kinks to work out in that I need the CSS to change based on the category (or other variables), which isn’t possible with this theme at the moment. But I like a good challenge. Most WordPress themes still hardly use any of the gallery functionality, which is a shame given its potential.
Oh, and spring time! Sunshine how I’ve missed thee. Bring on the green everywhere so we can unleash our Pip and Voidwalker on the unsuspecting masses in parcs and playgrounds everywhere.
