Gaming

Kinda lame title aside, this little entry is about my first successful go with Wine. No, not the alcoholic beverage destilled from grapes, commonly referred to as wine. I'll not keep it a secret, that I've had many successful goes with that in my life already. And probably more unsuccessful. No, this is about Wine. The Windows Simulator for Unix.

Sims 3 is out. Yeah... not out out, but... for a select few, it was.. out.. uhm.. was available for purchase. That's it. Installed it on my main box, and messed around with it for a bit. Pretty fun stuff. Then I invited Marie over, installed it on my laptop, so we could play simultaneously... and didn't look back. Damn, it gets addictive.

Bit late, I guess, but I figured I'd make a little post about the turn of yet another leaf in the great yearbook of life. Melodramatic, for sure, but hell... it's only new years once a year. Or.. well... you know what I mean. We're 9 days in, and already plenty of stuff has happened. Not to me, mind you, but others. That doesn't mean I still don't think about it, tho.

What can be more fitting for a guy at his wits end, than a week of non-stop gaming and geeking? I don't know either. So that's what I'm going. Tearing a week out of my not really busy schedule to play some Quake and some CS and some whatever other game I can get my hands on with a bunch of friends. 

A friend flew in from Belgium, to drive with me and Bense. We rented a car from Hertz, and on Monday we drove the 300 odd kilometers from Copenhagen to the house of our friend. It's small time, but what the hell. We only need computers and stuff. And of course we brought our own anyway.

So, lots of soda, and frozen food, the warmth of the comps and a few hours of sleep. That's what this week is all about. It's 4:30 in the am, and my eyes are starting to fog up a bit, so I think I'll head out, but just wanted to drop a few words. Trying to keep myself at the bat with this website thing. I did enjoy writing, but just had a lot of crap going on, what with medication and doctors and psychiatrists and stuff. Oh, and work. Anyway, sleepytime, and I'll be back shortly.
