It's been too long.

Okay, so we haven't written in awhile. I know, we're awful. We now have a forum, but I'm not sure if my husband has put up any links to it or not yet. If he has or when he does come check it out! Our lives have been very uneventful. I was very sick yesterday and the day before (with a cold) and now my husband has it. Your jealous, right? We have recently been crazy budgeting so we have no money to do anything fun!



But we did get to go see GWAR, which was awesome. We had to use our allowance money (not kidding), but it was totally worth it!

They were absolutely incredible. And incredibly awesome good time. I haven't had that much fun in a long time. If you haven't heard of Gwar I highly recommend that you look them up or at least go see one of their shows. I had never listened to their music before and I thought they were great!

Can you ask for more from a metal band then getting completely rocked and at the same time get covered in "blood" and "space jizz"... their words not mine.

I know it wasn't really a nerdy experience but I was amazed by the completely eclectic audience they had. You had your hardcore fans, your drunk chicks, then you had all sorts of random people like my husband and I and everywhere in between. Fat guys, skinny girls and vice versa. I was really in awe of the diversity at the show. I had no idea what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised.

Beyond that my only other nerdy experience in this past month is that Spore is making me want to shove my head through the computer. So far it was an amazing game. I was totally hooked. Then it started buggin' out and I don't know what to do. So if you have any suggestions either leave a comment or e-mail us at ironmanchangedmylife@yahoo.com. So I make it all the way through the tribal stage... awesome! Totally stoked! I get to make my city hall and what not then I go to make a car and my Spore just bugs out and freezes kinda and I just get to watch my tribe stand around and shake their instruments. It's supposed to just be a little clip of a video connecting me to the car maker but I never get there. Please help if you can! It would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, and I almost forgot! I read a new graphic novel called The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher.

Absolutely incredible. Very impressed. I've had a regular at the bookstore I work in tell me about Jim Butcher for years and I wasn't sure. I'm not always a huge sci-fi fan. Usually I'm a bigger fan of the fantasy end of that spectrum. Anyways... I figured this would be a great way for me to be introduced to the series quickly to see if I'd like it. Well I loved it! Give it a read. I'm very excited to see what he does with this series.

There's also another graphic novel that Holly Black (love her) just put out that I can't wait to get my hands on.

And if you think of any other books, that I just need to read please let me know! Thanks in advance!
