First I get Grand Magus - Iron Will (THE SHADOW KNOWS)! Now I've seen the fight of the year on Friday Night Fights between Wolak/Rodriguez. Awesome day.

No, but I saw it on ESPN2. After all the ******** they've been doing about Mosley/Pacquiao, Klitschko/Haye, and Lara/Williams, this fight was insane. The commentators were going ape**** out of respect for the action. As soon as you get a chance, you have to watch. One of the fighters ends up looking like Sloth from the Goonies.

Apparently, he retired and got sent to jail for a bit of time. His boxing style is something to behold though. I think only Emmanuel Augustus had a stranger approach.

I hold out hope for boxing because of matches like tonight. I started watching back in 07, took time away to see what UFC had to offer (not much), then suddenly returned to watching boxing this year. I'm a fan of stand-up striking combat. Anything less is uncivilized.

Picked FF IV back up now that ME2 is done. Putting some good time in on it so far. I don't think I am at Strife's level at beating games quickly, but I am doing much better than I was this time last year!

I'm gearing up to have my parents and nephew visit me next month. The painful part is coming. I was notified of a new Japanese restaurant that I wanted to try, but they wanted to have me scope out the place first. Well...
Appetizer: crispy tofu with soy sauce...yuck. $6 wasted First Main Dish: I say first, because this was the first shot at trying sushi. I have to say sushi is a no go for me. I couldn't handle even five bites before asking for something else. $15 wasted Second Appetizer: Beef and Chicken Skewers: Bad beef, serviceable chicken. $5.5 for the beef wasted Final Meal: Finally, I got some great noodles with pork. I couldn't tell if it was the food I liked for the massive salt content. Either way, that was the only pleasant dish in the entire menu.
The total came to $50, which I could have found multiple alternatives for. This is what they call "learning experiences." I learned that rather than buy a small ass plate of sushi, I'm better off buying three super sized smoothies. It probably goes down as my worst restaurant experience.

Got all 50 achievements in Fear 3. A nice little assist goes to my gaming buddy Kungfu for helping me get a about 15. (he got a few too along the way).
Put some time in on Dead Space and Final Fantasy IV tonight. Got a nap. Now I go to bed and rest up. Running outside in near 100% humidity and 100 degree temperatures right before my actual workout is rough. Gonna take tomorrow off and recoup. Then, back to it.

Once again, I'm beginning to feel the urge to quit using message boards entirely. Much like my recent Persona binge (150 hours in three weeks), I think I'm spending way too much time reading posts, lurking, etc. Unlike before, when I quit out of frustration for stupid **** (FFXIII bashing), I think I'm doing this of my own volition. An addiction can be harmful, and I need to start utilizing my time more fruitfully. I'm not sitting here saying it wasn't worth it (8 years doing anything is far from useless). I grew up as a GFAQs message board junkie. I've met a lot of people, done, said, and heard too many things. However, I need to get off my ass a little more and find something else to do. I fear if I return, I'll just get sucked back in like I always have.
I want to thank you guys for calling me a gaming "machine," a nutjob, a "shaman," but most of all, a friend. I'll stick around for a few more hours, but come midnight, you may never hear from me again.

I understand it's hard to deal with an addiction. It takes discipline and I wish you best.
