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.

Much Love
