As a few of you know, I'd been sick since the Wednesday before Halloween. About two weeks ago, I found a knot on my neck that shouldn't have been there, so I went to the doctor. He put me on an anti-biotic and wanted to see me again in a week. In the meantime, I was supposed to be going on a trip to Texas, but I didn't know what was going to happen. That trip, money and the knot really caused my stress levels to skyrocket and I stayed away from most online things for a very long time.
Anyway, I went back to my doctor and he wanted me to get blood work done. Did that, but nothing came up, so, to be on the safe side, he had me get a CAT scan (which I have no way to afford...and which could turn into a very bad problem if either the hospital or Medicaid screw me over). They could see the knot, but that's about all that was said on it, so I'm on meds again and will go back to the doctor in a few weeks for a progress check.
I'm feeling better, but I'm not sleeping well. And I didn't go on my trip either. I didn't exactly plan on getting sick, though.
That's really been it. Still probably won't be on here much, as I don't do much but just read things online or play my PS3 (I got Fallout 3 to take my mind off things...works good for that, though it will have to last me a long time, as I have a feeling it's the last game I'll be able to afford for several months. :(
My mom, being the wonderful person she is, put my number down when she signed up with them. Now she owes them money and they call MY phone about 12 times a day. Seeing as I am not the card holder, I decided I was tired of putting up with them and came up with a new plan:
I press the ON button on my phone when they call and leave it by my PC speakers, which are almost always playing music. I did this just a bit ago while listening to some Juno Reactor and they called not once, not twice, but three times! They must really love JR, so I'm gonna look around for one of my Dimmu Borgir albums. That should be an amusing experience, to say the least.
I don't have a problem with them calling, but when they call 12 times a day, that's going too far and so explains my reaction to it. I'm also tired of some losers here in town putting my number down everytime they sign up for stuff. I really need to find out how I can legally stop them from doing that. Jerks.
Fore! Thankfully for Ray's sake, I didn't notice I had my Proton Stream equipped and I hit L2...I didn't cause any $$$$ damage, but I did one shot the monster :)
A view inside Ray's head.
Not as easy to see as when I was playing the game and took this, but his right eye = blue and left eye = brown (Wikipedia is once again wrong on what color the right eye is...it's not green).
A new feature of the new PS3 update. When you view a submenu, it blurs the background, making the menu easier to read (in theory). As you can see above, I already proved that the blurring doesn't actually help (at least for trophies). >_<
I just fought him on easy (doing a Nice Shooting Tex run). When I was running toward him to slime his mask, I was saying to myself, "Yay I love this boss fight. I'm gonna do great!" Sure enough, for the FIRST time ever, I finished the fight with both of my GB's up! Egon went down once, but I managed to lure Azzy to me, giving Ray time to run over and rez him. After that, we all took the big lug on and maybe 2 two minutes at the most was how long the entire fight took. Pretty awesome that I finally finished that fight with both of my dudes up (one would have been good enough for me, so imagine my surprise when I knew Azzy was going down and I had both still up).
Also, LOL Ray moment: "Take that you big jerk!" And finally, he got to say, "Bye Azetlor" and not look like a cheapo taking credit for other people's work :)
So after I got the new PS3 update (which I'm not exactly thrilled with...don't like the new start up and now we don't get the jingle when we start a game), I started up Ghostbusters the Video Game and it asked me to update it. Yay update! So far I've yet to have the problem where if you get into the game too fast your save will vanish temporarily.
I'm not really a big MP person (though if I meet someone who has the game too and IM, I'll game with ya...I don't have a mic ATM). So the fixed trophies aren't that big a deal to me. I've heard of some freezes, but have yet to have any of those. So yeah I think I'm okay with this patch. Glad they patched it tho. That entire thing was pretty stupid, glitched trophies and such.
