And by that, I mean I finally got around to bringing the fabled Work Blog home. All is set up and ready to go. I even added the sidebar link for every page. So it&#8217;s up there now, totally unedited, except for I rearranged it so that it reads from top to bottom, making it easier on you guys. And a few minor things like spelling corrections and picture links (again, for comprehension purposes). On top of that, I got around to picking my Band of the Month. Huzzah! It&#8217;s POD! I knew I wanted them up there one of these months, and since I hadn&#8217;t figured out anyone else for this month, there they are. Review should be up either tomorrow or Saturday morning. Probably not tomorrow, because I&#8217;m spending the day completely cleaning out my room. Cleaning, dusting, vacuuming, getting rid of old crap; the whole nine yards. I&#8217;m going to Hell and back, but it&#8217;ll be worth it to have a more organized room.<\/p>\n<p>Completely unrelated, my dad did a similar job on the living room today, so the couches and such were moved downstairs. For the first time in my own home, I had the joy of playing video games while sitting on the couch. It&#8217;s so much better than the floor or my bed. <strong>So much.<\/strong> For the sake of something to look at, I&#8217;ve taken some pictures of the endeavor. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/lroom1.jpg\">The front of the empty room.<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/lroom2.jpg\">The empty dining area.<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/lroom3.jpg\">The new mess in the basement.<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/lroom4.jpg\">Playing GameCube on the couch!<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/lroom5.jpg\">Crap piled on the table.<\/a> So you see, there is many a thing to move back into place. Fortunately, all I have to do is help move the couches back. It may be the hard part, but it&#8217;s also the shortest.<\/p>\n<p>And let&#8217;s get back to what Ryan&#8217;s really about: ten days until the DS launch! I&#8217;ve been really good about it up until now, and I think with ten days left, I have clearance to get excited. To make things better (and more expensive, too&#8230;) Metroid Prime 2: Echoes releases on the 15th, and Viewtiful Joe 2 is due out on the 19th. Luckily for me, those are the only games that I really want until January, when Resident Evil 4 and the GBA MegaMan Anniversary Collection come out. That gives me a few paycheques to save up for Christmas presents. and maybe for some stuff that isn&#8217;t video games. Cause I need some of that. Though I did just spend $100 on a jacket, so I guess I&#8217;ve done enough non-game buying for a while. At least by my standards.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, my respects to all those fallen soldiers who we dedicate this day to. If it weren&#8217;t for you guys, I might not have so many freedoms, and I wouldn&#8217;t have earned time and a half today.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.torrentialequilibrium.net\/images\/poppy.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center>ADDENDUM (9:30PM): I just added a banner for Penny Arcade&#8217;s Child&#8217;s Play charity near the top of the page. It&#8217;s a great cause, and I even donated 5 bucks. I know that not many people will see it here, but I like the idea that I&#8217;m at least trying to help out. And you know, it&#8217;s nice to do good rather than evil once in a while.
