fine whine

Other than there being a cat running around the house there isn't much new going on around here. I keep meaning to write that novel and I keep not doing it.

In other news, I still really like the computer game X-com: UFO defense, or as it was known everywhere else, UFO: Enemy unknown. It's this classic game that I find far more interesting than the whole run-around-and-shoot-and-whatnot paradigm that seems to represent so much of the current crop of games. I've returned now to X-com some three or four times. I haven't played Doom II a second time yet. For that matter, I haven't even beaten the first levels of Half life.
