September 12 - Inferno

Good evening, solar system

Today I played through Dante's Inferno on the easiest difficulty (because I am a whimp and wanted to beat it all in one day) and I got all the relics and Judas Coins and maxed out my holy skill set and absolved/punished all of the damned souls and bought some downloadable content. It was an enjoyable experience, but there are still some things that seem kind of strange - namely the continued use of Greek mythological figures despite the fact that it is supposed to be the Christian hell. There is some mention of the "false and lying gods" which I'm guessing would be the Greek gods, but that just confuses me more. There is even a golden statue that mutters ominously that is supposedly a Greek god and my mind is all skdjsa. Wait, or maybe it's a Roman god.

Anyhoo.

I do not want to go back to work tomorrow. But at least tomorrow's Monday, so some of my mail might arrive. I doubt it will, but even if it doesn't it should be here sometime this week and I am excited. I still haven't finished Looking for Alaska. I honestly haven't been reading it that much. But I'm sure I will get around to finishing it someday.

I am currently downloading Final Fantasy VIII via the PS3 (I bought it off the Playstation Network). I might buy Final Fantasy IX someday... but I doubt I will end up buying Final Fantasy seven. It is kind of the Twilight of the FF series for me, hearing everyone talk about how great it is all of the time has kind of made me sick of it before I've even played it. Maybe someday I will play it and it will be amazing, but for right now I am going to stay away. Plus I played a FF8 demo years and years ago and I remember thinking the Leviathan summon was the most amazing thing ever and using it over and over. And so I've kind of always wanted to play the actual game.

I don't think there's much more news on my end. My roommate has gone on a vacation of sorts for 8 days so I have free reign over the ps3. And you'd better believe I am going to be taking full advantage of that fact. I ate a wee bit too much junk today so I feel ill. I never seem to be able to eat just the right amount, I am either stuffed or I am still hungry. It's no wonder I am tubby.
