Must post more often Apparently it's been a busy month even though it didn't feel like it. I've enjoyed coming home and not having to squeeze school work, dinner, and spending time with Brittany before going to bed (no, I'm still doing the last one).

I've started going to this Chiropractor / Massage place. They were at a health care fair here at work giving out certificates for 1 hour free massages and free evaluations. I'm giving it a try (partly because my health insurance covers it) and will see how it goes. So far, the bulk of it has been the massage to loosen up my ridiculously tight muscles.

Brittany and I went to the Del Mar Fair (I will not call it by it's new name), and had a little fun. We didn't go for long; just a couple of hours on a week night. One of my coworkers lives near-by and offered to drive us to and from her house so we didn't have to deal with the crowded parking lot or pay the $12 fee.

I've kept my promise to be a bug killer for Brittany. This morning she found a spider and I was able to come over, find it, and kill it all without grossing her out too much. I killed another one two weeks ago.

We've started using her roommate's grill. It's a gas one, which is foreign to me. I was able to figure it out after a little bit though, and the condo hasn't burned down. However, we need to use leaner meat because the grease from the hamburgers caused flames as tall as 2-3 feet.

I'm still playing FF-XII and I'm on a break from Medieval Total War 2. I enjoyed MTW2 a lot, but it's definitely one of those games that can become a big time-suck. Playing as England, I had a lot of trouble trying to avoid becoming excommunicated by the Pope. Eventually he had enough with my conquest through France and all of my Catholic population got angry. I guess that would be historical though... FF-XII is enjoyable. I've gotten a better feel for their battle system. There are still some annoyances like very powerful monsters walking around next to the starter-fiends. Ones that can run faster and kill in one hit. I think I've died almost 10 times at this point.
