I purchased Worms on the Xbox Live Arcade the other week, and have gotten a great deal of enjoyment out of it.  So far the roommate and I are about even for wins/losses, but I think my skills aren’t as good as they used to be.  The first time I ever played a worms game was back in the Win95 days so you’d think I’d be a god at it, but it’s been awhile and I’m rusty :).  Christine seems to do better against me, though I’ll always blame the map haha.

I’m humming right along in GTA 4, but also taking my time to enjoy the game fully.  The missions are always very engaging and the storyline is simply awesome.  I do have a gripe with the shooting system though, the camera can make you disoriented if you have multiple enemies around you and have to keep moving the camera as you dispatch them.  I’ve only tried the “friends” multiplayer option so far, but I think I will delve into the full multiplayer tonight and post thoughts about that.

I’ll have some pictures up of the new garden soon, so you can all see the disaster recovery job my girlfriend and I did on it.  She’s the green thumb and did the majority of the work.

The upgrade to WordPress 2.5 went very smoothly, all I did was backup my database and files, deactivate all the plugins except my InstantUpgrade plugin, and then ran that.  After enabling the same plugins I was running before, everything was fine.  Easily the most hassle-free upgrade I have ever done on any platform.

I disabled the Twitter Tools updates, I thought there was a weekly digest option but there wasn’t, and it was spamming the Hak5 feed.

We filmed segments for Hak5 3×09 yesterday, and it was a lot of fun.  I stood in for Darren’s segment, Matt stood in for mine.  Christine and I both did short tips and then we headed back home.  It was definitely weird being up there for the first time since December.  Hopefully we get another live show going soon.

Today I will be fixing up my garden to look nice, which is a project inspired by Christine.  I’ll put up pictures later.
