Welcome to the New Year

Well, 2007 came and went, and for me, it was one of the best years of my life. I rang it in with friends and loved ones and got to experience an amazing year. I can't really explain in words all the happiness and love I felt in my life, other than to say I've never felt that way before.

Over the past few weeks, we got an XBox 360 for Christmas for each other and have been playing a variety of games. Our TV was already HD Ready, so the graphics just look pretty awesome. We've been playing Assassin's Creed, BioShock, Halo 3, Dead Rising, and Call of Duty 3. It is pretty darn fun and I have my parents to thank for since they helped get it for us. The only thing we are missing right now is an internet connection so that we can get on XBox Live and play with family and friends. My nephews have already stated that they want to kick my ass in Halo 3. I'm a bit scared, considering they are only 8 and 10 years old!

Other than that, I am really looking forward for the next week or so. A special someone is visiting and we're going to see Cloverfield! One thing to note is that there is currently an Alternate Realtity Game going on behind the scenes since June of last year. The characters have MySpace pages and there's a variety of blogs and fake news reports that lead to various discoveries that explain the lead up to events on how the monster attacks NYC. Here is a great site that explains the timelines of things that have been happening in the run-up to the movie's premiere.
