So I wanted to make a blog...

And here it is.  Now, what to blog about?  How about, like Oprah, I blog about a few of my favorite things.  Well, really just one favorite thing--gaming.  I thought maybe something about cat walking, but that would probably be pretty dry.  "Here's my cat!"  "Here's my cat on a leash!"  "Here's my cat on a leash laying on the grass!" (FYI that is pretty much the main event of cat walking)  So I decided to go with gaming.

What can I say about gaming...hmmm...it's something I have found a passion for in my dotage.  Gaming is something I grew up with--if we're being really honest here I come from a big family of nerds.  Nerds who go to the theater on opening nights of LoTR (not in costume though, gotta draw the nerd line somewhere) and play video games.  I remember going to my Grandma's house and playing on her PC Jr. (circa 1986ish).  My family always had a computer and yes, we used it for gaming.  We also had a few consoles that were cool for their day--an Atari or two (I'm not down with the Atari lingo to know the model #'s), a Nintendo, and of course a PC.

                                My brother and I celebrating our unknown future as nerds.

                                  PC Gaming in the good ol' days.  Snap bracelet included!

Needless to say, I have continued the family tradition of gaming (and general geekiness).  To further score geek points I plan to document my gaming experiences on this blog for perpetuity.
