The Importance of Being Idle

Down In Albion

Welcome to Friday afternoon. How's it lookin' from your end?
Man that Halo rant last night was a bit... peculiar. It was also all a bit off the cuff, I'd just been playing it for an hour or so to kill some time before the penultimate episode of House was on (I like House, I think its the only thing I watch on TV that isn't the news or a cartoon), and it just really bugged the hell outta me. I mean, I appreciate that there is much about Halo 2 which is right, I'm not saying its the worse game ever made, far from it, but mainly its art direction (be it graphics, sound or music) which is right, while the single-player gameplay is severely borked. I think mainly its just such a massive disappointment because the original was so damn good!
So far today has been a bit rubbish. Jules called me last night and told (yes, told!) me to go round her place and pick her up at 9am this morning, and as its her birthday today I assume she had some sort of plan, so round I went. She wasn't in, she wasn't answering her phone, so I came home, went for a long run and an even longer bike ride. Then I had a nice relaxing bath, and now its now, and I'm drinking tea while my landlord is outside hitting the gate with a hammer for some reason.
I wonder what I'm gonna do with the rest of my day?
