Well I caved in and bought Minecraft for the PC and honestly I could not be happier. The sky really is the limit when it comes to what you can do with this game. Also I hate to admit it but I feel my gaming preference beginning to shift from consoles to PC. Currently I have only been playing on peaceful just because I still haven't gotten use to the controls of a PC that who AWSD is a little crazy though using a mouse is far easier than using an analog stick to to aim. Also the addition of mods and texture packs are pretty awesome. Currently I am only using the Optifine Mod and the Boardercraft texture pack which is awesome. I don't really have too much else to say right now. The diet is going pretty crappy but each day is a new day. Today I made sure not to bring that much stuff with me to work so that I am limited to just my breakfast and what I brought for lunch I also didn't bring any money for the vending machines. We will see how it goes. Most likely I will just stuff my face when I get home.

Cupcakes and Ice Cream Cakes!!!
Man where did this weekend go? I mean honestly I have no clue. I don't really know what happened to Saturday I do however know that Sunday I ate some cupcakes and some candy along with a homemade ice cream cake. Well not the whole ice cream cake but a lot of it. I also had probably some of the best lasagna I have ever consumed. Way more of that than I should have. I look back on Sunday and it is no surprise that I can barely see my toes sticking out from my gut, OK that isn't true I can still see my toes but I wonder if it is only a matter of time. Today is am starting over (yet again) I wish that I could get a little more support at home over this but I kind of understand that people don't like to do that kind of stuff. Everyone wants me to talk to a doctor and go the surgery route but I know that I can do this. I have done it before I know that I am not fat because of a problem with my body I am fat because of a problem with my mind and because I don't say know. I also am the master of making up excuses. An all time favorite is the well it is the weekend I can start over on Monday. That is the one I used this weekend. Then there is also the well I lost five pounds so I can have a treat. That treat almost always being like an entire pizza. I want to do this and I want to do it right. The thing is that I know what the problem is I know what I need to do to fix it though this is probably one of the first times I have actually spit it out without more excuses. Well I just wanted to get that off my chest for right now. We will see how things go.

Damn You Philly Pretzel Factory
Man Thursdays are great days......... You know why I love Thursdays?...... PHILLY PRETZEL FACTORY!!!!! OK I love and hate them. So the amazing company that I work for they really know how to take care of us. Mondays they provide bagels, Wednesdays are a catered lunch I don't ever partake in that because of the inability to count the calories. Thursdays is PPF (yummy) I allow myself two of those and then Fridays they alternate between Pizza and Subs. I don't eat the pizza on pizza days but I definitely enjoy a little Roast Beef Hoagie on Hoagie Fridays.
OK I am done talking about that. I was trying to think about something to write about from last night but I realized I did absolutely nothing last night. I watched a couple of iHasCupquake Minecraft videos last night caught up on the Minecraft Hunger Games they played well the first and second I had already watched them both from Captain Sparklez and AntVenoms perspective but it was really cool to see it from Cupquakes perspective because you got to see the drama from the air. I also caught up on some of her old Quake N Bake videos which are freaking awesome. If you are into nerdy edible treats they are worth the watch. Geeky yummy snacks abound. It lets me satisfy my food addiction without actually eating anything. She also has a great series called Geeky Goodies that teach you how to make all kinds of geeky and wonderful decor things. Pretty awesome.
On the diet front yesterday was a great day I stayed below my calorie limit and that is always a plus. I need to hurry up and get paid so that I can buy some better food to eat though. I am staying below my calorie limit but the quality of the food isn't as good as I would like but I am going to make a change to that.
I think I slept on my wrist weird last night because I woke up and I could barely move it. It even hurt shifting my car on the way to work. I have it wrapped and I hope it starts to feel better soon...
In the realm of TV I am going to try to giving Breaking Bad another chance this evening I watched like the first like six episodes but I kept losing interest in the show every time that Walt would do something evil and decide he wanted to go home and bang his annoying wife it always annoyed me. OK well I am running out of stuff to say and am probably going to start rambling soon.

Minecraft Obsession
OK so my daughter was telling me about this game called Minecraft and that it was so awesome and there were videos on YouTube and I was like sure I will take a gander at this since she loves the videos. I was not impressed I thought it was such a stupid idea for a game. Then it came out as part of the Xbox Arcade and I downloaded and for her.... I was hooked the first time I spawned into that blocky world and was forced to survive that first night. The first time I heard that freaking hissing sound and was blown to bits by something that I didn't even see I knew I was in for a bad time. I have finally made the decision to upgrade to the PC version of the game and really give into my obsession.
I am choosing to lay the blame for my addiction to Minecraft not on myself but on YouTubers like iHasCupquake, AntVenom, sethbling and of course I cant mention Minecraft and YouTube without mentioning CaptainSparklez. What these incredible people are able to do and create with this game is amazing I love games I love gaming I will admit it though I am horrible I suck beyond all belief but that is not what games are about they are about fun and creativity and killing time. Minecraft has created the perfect tool for doing all of those.
Even now as I am typing this blog post I am being destracted by Cupquakes Minecraft Single Player videos.
OK enough about that I just wanted to take a moment to rant about something that I take enjoyment from. On to another note the battle against the bulge is going I am slowly making some progress which is a good thing I don't want just rush in and lose a bunch of weight. I have been down that road before and after the rapid weightloss it was always just a matter of a few months before I have put even more weight on. So I think that going slow is the better way to go. I am hoping to get this blog and everything about it more organized and less of a mess. I am hoping that just by typing everyday perhaps I will get better at it.

Damn You Steven Moffat!!!!!!!
OK so seriously I love/hate Steven Moffat. This man is the single greatest bane of my existence except for being fat I guess, but he controls my tv watching schedule and always messes it up with his non-standard release times and breaks between seasons of his show. I am pretty sure that he just sits around and BBC goes "Hey when you going to get us some new Doctor Who or new Sherlock?" and he just goes "Fuck you guys I am Steven MFing Moffat I will give you new shows when they are ready and you will air them and you will like it." Yes I am sure that is how the world works. No seriously I love him he is an amazing writer and what not but no I hate him... haha. OK well that is all I am going to rant about right now the weekend was really uneventful for the most part I am still going day to day and failing as much as winning but not quitting. I am hoping to get things back on track and perhaps have a little more to say this evening.
Much Love,

Oh Beef Jerky
I have decided that Jack Link's Teriyaki beef jerky is probably the greatest snack food I have ever had the pleasure of sticking in my mouth. I have always been a big fan of Jack Link's but it wasn't until I was enjoying a bag of the Teriyaki jerky this morning that I realized I love this stuff. I mean when you think about it yeah the sodium in it is insane but when you look at only 80 calories a serving and 14 grams of protein a serving it is a nice little pick me up when you are dragging and need a little bit of energy and are trying to stay away from sugar and coffee.
Also I am already starting to seen an improvement in how I feel even after only two days of not stuffing myself into a food coma every day. I did eat a little bit more yesterday than I had wanted. What can I say I am not perfect and that slice of chocolate cream pie just looked so delish last night. The upside where as I would usually eat that and go "Well I already screwed up I might as well just keep eating." I didn't this time I said well I ate that and really shouldn't have I just wont eat anything else this evening which it being at 8:00 PM wasn't a bad thing. So I am just going a day at a time I am hoping that soon I will have dropped a few pounds and will be able to walk more without having to worry about my knees supporting my weight. That is my first goal. I just want to be able to walk without my knees hurting or getting winded.
Enough on the dieting front. I ordered a copy of FF12 from Gamestop to play since it is probably my second favorite FF game of all time next to 7 though I will always have a soft spot for the end of X when you got to hear a FF character say I love you for the first time it was special. OK on to 12. I have always loved that game I always thought that the voice acting and the story was always top. I managed to dust off my PS2 (Still one of my favorite systems ever) and started that baby up. I had forgotten about a few of the annoying things about the game for example the camera controls when walking are a little bit annoying and also the battle system is a bit different. Also the size of the Playstation controllers lol. I have been playing my 360 for so long I had forgotten how tiny they were but after a few minutes I was starting to get the feel for it again and I am sure it is only a matter of time before I am back to slashing through the game. I am going to try to play it all MLG style no strat guide or anything like that. Luckily it has been so long since I played it that I don't remember anything about it. :)
Well that is it for me right now. I am going to try to perhaps write a little something this evening to keep myself moving with this.

The New Year
Well so the new year is upon us and I finally caved in and got myself an iPhone and I hate to admit it but I totally love it. I had been one of the biggest voices in my circle of friends and co-workers against the iPhone for the fact that they controlled what kind of apps made it into the market place so in my opinion it limited the third party options well I discovered that having that kind of control makes it so that the apps you add to your device wont utterly bog it down. In my android days I would load my phones up with apps and they would eventually crash and force close and the phone would just reboot all the time. If you know what you are doing the customizability of an android device can be a great thing but honestly I never really know what I am doing so the same thing that first attracted me to android phone eventually pushed me away from it. OK well that is enough about that.
So over the holiday I lost a friend. He was a guy that I honestly didn't think I would become as good of a friend to as I became. He was also not much older than me and where as he did live a very hard life with years of alcoholism that probably contributed to his death (they don't know exactly how he died yet). His body was found early in the morning so it looks like he went in his sleep. Our lives do not parallel in really any way I do drink but not at any kind of regular frequency but it still made me think about the fact that I am not healthy. I am incredibly overweight and feel that I am only a few pounds away from having a heart attack. Since I have this new iPhone I all of these tools to help me be more organized I am going to try to take advantage of it and get my shit together. I am not going to make a new years resolution because the second I do that I fail. I am just going to try harder to be a better person a healthier person. A person that will be around longer for my ghouls (girls). Well I don't have much else to say at this moment but I am going to try to also keep things more up to date here.
Blessed Be.
