forces are beginning to believe that he is now dead...

F**k f**k f**kity f**k. My cooking f**king sucks, this is f**king incredible, I'm officially a weapon of mass destruction, put me in charge of dinner for world officials and i'll kill the lot of them with one easy risotto. I cannot believe I just managed to ruin a pop tart. What the f**k?

I have realised I am in serious danger of becoming a total Resident Evil geek, not only is the movie one of my favorite all time action movies (alongside Aliens) but now i'm hooked on the games also... and the f**king soundtrack is a mainstay on my CD player.... help me... geek overload.... i'm sinking!!

As if flooding wasnt bad enough...

Finally updated by side bar with a new link or two and the usual old bollocks, have fun if youre geeky enough to read it all ;-)

In other news, finally got myself Resident Evil 1 (the remake) for the GameCube and hot DAYUM, it just scared the living shit out of me. Theres a deformed old lady in a cabin out in the woods and she nearly made me wet myself I kid ye not. Whoever came up with this game needs a good kicking... and a medal.

A belated Friday Five! God i'm slow!

1. How many houses/apartments have you lived in throughout your life?

Oh lordy theres a question.... Started out in Bedford, moved to Wales, moved to Kuwait (my father is a Pilot, when mother was with him, they were stationed out there, theyre not together anymore) back to England, Southdown. Down to Cornwall, moved back to Wales, back to London, Southdown, Harpenden, three places in harpenden, moved to St Albans, moved to three... no four different places in St Albans... the end. Thats... 14... maybe 15 i'm not sure.

2. Which was your favorite and why?

Uhh, favorite was definitely the second time in Wales cause I had my first pony out there, my darling Disney.

3. Do you find moving house more exciting or stressful? Why?

Stressfull, probably because i've done it so many times and always under bad circumstances.

4. What's more important, location or price?

I dont care.

5. What features does your dream house have (pool, spa bath, big yard, etc.)?

Couldnt care less about all the fixtures and fittings, so long as its cool in the summer, warm in the winter and has a f**k off huge back yard so i can keep horses... i'd be happy.
