Excessive

I am having a lot of fun playing Borderlands on my brand new PC, maybe more so because of how long I've had to wait, or the added satisfaction of having built the PC on my own, or knowing that I've got the game running at complete max settings and it's silky smooth, but regardless, I am having a lot of fun, and could spend a lot of time just sitting here, getting lost in the world. I'm also enjoying Blue Dragon, a dangerously simple RPG for the 360 written by the original creator of Final Fantasy and 'main dude' from Final Fantasy 1 to 9. I suppose to summarize, I'm enjoying my game playing lately, and it's nice to relax, or it's a good means to relax I guess.

Today was an active day, a day filled with travel, accomplishment, anxiety and... feeling... uncomfortably aware of the fact that I wasn't at home. Bekki and I got up and checked out computers for a bit, but eventually agreed to go and try to get my Ontario Photo Card identification. Yes, after probably six years or so of having misplaced my ID, and knowing I should get it replaced, I finally did it. I'm not entirely sure why, mainly because it's just a good idea to have, and it'd be nice to be able to pick up my own beer and wine, and there are the occasional 19+ concerts I'd go to, but overall it will probably be rarely used.

We caught a bus to downtown and transfered onto a Dundas, and rode it all the way down Dundas, almost to Argyle mall. The trip is a terrible one, driving directly through the shitiest parts of London, filled with dirty, stinky, terrible people. I hate that specific bus route, and always have... it hasn't changed at all.

The trip to the service center was easy enough but we did have to wait a bit. I should be receiving the ID in the mail within two weeks. Afterward we went to a diner next door for lunch, and I had an overcooked mushroom omlete, but it was food, so... I ate it.

We walked to Argyle mall from there, just missing the Wavell that would take us home, so we went to Wal-mart and looked around. We grabbed a collapsable table, a puzzle (a set of 10) and that wasted enough time for us to catch the next Wavel home.

The trip home seemed to take forever, Bekki slept on my shoulder as students kept getting on the bus and filling it. It was uncomfortable and all I wanted was to just be at home. Once home, Bekki had to leave for work within the hour. My night was pretty low key, but that's the way I like it. I had a chicken caesar salad for dinner, cleaned up the house a bit, did some laundry, read some Storm of Swords, played some Blue Dragon and Borderlands and just relaxed. I just had a bath and think I'll play a little bit of Blue Dragon before reading in bed as I try to get ready to sleep.

Tomorrow is the first day of school, fourth semester, fourth of six semesters, so I'm half way. I'm not that nervous but anxious to get it over with. I'm sure it'll be fine...
