| | Damn You XBox
For the past hour now I've been staring wide-eyed at the big screen, letting the sound of machine guns pulsate against my eardrums and grunting men swarm into my ears. There's a sadistic pleasure in watching my boyfriend tear through a creature with a chainsaw while the blood splatters against the screen. And all I can think is "ugh damnit, how is he going to be able to see the next guy to kill." My teeth clench in excitement with every headless body that falls to its cement grave as the head rolls off to some unknown perimeter.
"Babe, we need to have a serious talk. I did something today that may ruin our relationship." Now J and I have been dating two months and nothing in his actions have ever made me feel as if I had to worry about him being unfaithful. But then again... it's only been two months. I held my breath...
"I went out today ... and bought an Xbox 360."
Translation: Because I bought this kick ass console, it will probably be consuming every conscious breath that I take for the next month. Don't blame me if I don't call, see you, or even remember your name. If I don't even acknowledge your presence but instead you noticed that I haven't blinked in the past hour or so, blame it on the genuis game designers that I now worship. I am just one of many who have fallen victim to the greatness of GEARS OF WAR.
"So even though I may not be paying attention to you. Just remember that I care about you a lot. A lot a lot." So it's only Day 1 since he's had it. It's 3 am and I haven't seen him get up once and he's still in his work uniform. Entirely its not so bad. I know how addicting video games can get. I'm entranced myself. It's like watching a movie. Music accompianment sounds like a movie soundtrack, narrative dialogue isn't close to being cheesy. And like I said, its just hot seeing my boyfriend use that chainsaw.
