A sigh of relief...

Today marks the end of the StarCraft 2 Beta!!! I can't believe I made it this far without breaking my fiance's computer. I wish I could say that I had some good times and some bad times with that game, but there was only BAD! Last night, fiance and his friends thought it would be smart to have a big StarCraft tournament. Good idea for them...too bad I had to suffer through it. He sat there for THREE AND A HALF HOURS playing. Not to brag or anything...but he was the undefeated champion of the tournament! Now that's something I'll be proud to tell all of my friends!!!

He sat there playing that game while I watched the MTV Movie Awards (GO NEW MOON)! I tried to talk to him a bit while I was watching the show and he was playing games. He had temporary hearing loss. For instance...When I was squealing over Kristen Stewart winning Best Female Performance, he couldn't hear a word that I was saying. They announced that in five minutes they were going to play an exclusive trailer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. I told fiance he better be ready to watch the TV in five minutes, as he is a Harry Potter fan. He said, "I don't think I'll be done yet." I replied, "Oh they're showing exclusive footage of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows." His response.."Oh I'll have to be done then...Tell me when it comes on!" Surrrrre. So then Rob and Kristen won BEST KISS!!!! And I'm all "OMG THEY'RE GONNA KISS! LOOK!!!! AHHH" Of course he was suffering from slight hearing loss. But when Scarlett and Sandra kissed...Well he was all eyes on the TV for that one!!! Silly, silly boy.

So I woke up this morning thinking, I have my fiance back!!! Two months free of StarCraft! No more "WE REQUIRE MORE MINERALS!" No more talk of how Terran and Protoss are so totally rigged while the poor Zerg suffers! No more yelling at the computer! No more constant StarCraft conversations with his friends while I sit there twiddling my thumbs! Well...I could be right about a few of these things, but what I seem to have forgotten was...RED DEAD REDEMPTION! When one game ends...it's on to the next. Boooo. And that's not all. I've failed to mention fiance's obsession with Two Plus Two. This is a forum for poker players of which he is an avid member. I'm pretty sure he may play a bit more online poker now than he has in the past few months. So I can cross "NO MORE YELLING AT THE COMPUTER" off my list because that is sure to come!

This is one thing I don't get about boys. They easily sway from one thing to another. Call of Duty was a big deal until Final Fantasy came out, then StarCraft filled those shoes, then Red Dead Redemption came barging in. You don't see me flopping from Team Edward to Team Jacob, and you certainly don't see me whoring around with other vampire series. I'm a Twihard through and through. If there's no more Twilight books for me to read, I'll fill my time with something else. You won't see me going to buy the latest House of Night novel or anything like that. I have loyalty.
