Sorry Gents, Not Quite Dead Yet

I know I haven't been very punctual with blogging recently—but good news! My finals are over! Starting now, its summer time. All of summer. Just us. So, where to start? I got Civilization V from my good friend, and I’ve been hooked since. I’ve been getting back into League of Legends, and I love the graphics and FPS updates, but I’m not crazy about Darius, since he can literally destroy everything without trying. I got a new unusual: a Texas Ten Gallon in black with Stormy-Storm. It’s beautiful. I also sold a G. Merc’s Pride Scarf for a white Bills hat, a clean Fast Learner and a dirty Front Runner. Overall, I’m doing pretty well, and I’m looking forward to that eventual Ten Gallon with beams, its staring me in the face.

Let’s get back to Civilization V. My friend bought it for me as a late birthday gift (a very, very late gift. 5 years late) and told me I would love it. He didn’t lie to me. I started a game as Kamehameha (not because it sounded like a particular reference to anything) and got the immediate bonus of being able to cross oceans—which is significant in 4,000 BC. In Civ V (for all of you not quite familiar with the game) it’s like risk, but with more parts to it. You can win through peace, culture, or war. You can use economics to help you get to this, and research stuff to help you meet these goals. Being an economic warlord from TF2 I quickly narrowed in my focuses on this idea.

Currently, we’ve hit the 1700’s (AD now) and are dominating little tiny city-states who are standing in my way. We’ve started a new campaign with another friend in it too, and I have my own going on as well. I have to say, I didn’t expect any game to come between me and TF2, but Civ V and LoL are quickly worming their way up and into my time, and I’m not going to stop them. So, I think it’s time to move out of all my time-variable assets, so it’s time to shift into keys and metal on stuff I don’t really want/need. I’m liquidating, and nobody can stop me.
