The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

I was a little confused about the current standings in Gaming King, until I realized what happened. Someone earned more than 1,000 votes in the last 7 hours. My theory is that someone saved up their Earned Votes for a long time and decided to use them today. Chances are, I will be back into 12th (or better) soon.

But I haven't actually done anything lately to earn more votes. I haven't uploaded a video in two weeks. I still have some recordings on my computer that I need to edit, and since each recording is short, it won't take long to post. I could do it tomorrow. If I can tear myself away from playing.

Today I played Grand Theft Auto IV and Final Fantasy XIII. I advanced the story in Grand Theft Auto IV, since I wasn't having any luck trying to get non-story trophies. I have the penthouse save point, so I no longer have to drive so far to get to the mission start points.

And I also advanced the story in Final Fantasy XIII. It only took me one try to defeat Barthandelus today, which was really weird. It's like he took it easy on me or something. I don't think it was skill, because I didn't do anything different. Anyway, I have defeated Cid Raines, just so you know where I am in the game. I earned one story trophy and one non-story trophy. The non-story trophy was Loremaster, so I also have access to Sazh's background picture. I do love that chocobo chick! When I played before, I unlocked the Sazh and Vanille pictures, and I think maybe even Hope's. Anyway, now that I am past Barthandelus, I will probably play well into the night tonight.

I woke up this morning so stiff. It took several minutes of inching along to get to the bathroom this morning. But throughout the day, I was walking more and more normal. But I still took it easy today. I hate leg cramps!

As far as everything else goes, it's the same as ever. I like it. Dad finally paid me for his portion of the phone bill. I thought I was going to have to show him the hard way that I am done with his crap by disconnecting the phone from the wall. I didn't have to do that though.

So, now I have $43.90 more than I did yesterday. Now I will be able to start the bank account and still have money for lunch at work. My plan with each check will be to deposit 60-65% each week. Whether or not that will actually happen, I don't know.

Well, I encourage everyone to go visit Gypsy Elder's twitch channel right now. She's playing Final Fantasy X. At the time I am typing this, she is in Besaid Temple.

Well, that's all for now. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
