Killing time



I've been killing people and breaking things lately. I never thought I had it in me, but I love violence. Never fear, just on Stronghold Crusader. I've been taking out my frustrations on tiny little enemy troops. I finally have the game. I had downloaded the demo when it first came out, but the game was about $40. My son Jason just bought it at Wal-Mart for $10. I was going to pick up my own copy, but guess what -- once you have loaded it you can play without the disk! :) So if you want this game, buy it at Wal-Mart. But the reviews on Amazon.com are worth reading. Apparently, I'm not the only one that finds this game to be extremely addictive. So now you know what I've been up to lately and why my posting is still sporadic. ;)

I hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend. I was happy to get out of cooking for most of it, as Scott grilled on Sunday. We went to to my parents' house yesterday for another cookout. They had cooked for an army, so we actually came home with more food. I may get out of cooking tonight too. My brother and his wife had come down from St. Joseph for a local bike race, so it was good to see them again.

That's good to know. I got Rise of Nations recently; if I had known SC was a good bargain-bin game, I would have snatched it up instead ...

PS: Welcome back! We've missed you these past few days!

I like The Sims, but haven't played it for awhile, or downloaded any neat stuff for it... Ever since I found out Sims2 is coming out! LOL!!

I have the same problem, Pam. ;) I just can't play the old one anymore. I can't wait for Sims 2 to come out!
