I've been MIA (or What Happens When Moms Get Addicted to Video Games)

I've severely neglected this blog for the last few weeks. I have no good excuse. Unless you count the determination to finish a video game a good thing? But take that, Dead Island! I'm done with you now!

It's been a long time since I've gotten into a video game; the last being BioShock in 2007 while I was pregnant with my son. I would have loved to continue playing World of Warcraft, but I just didn't have the time or energy to commit to it. What works best for me are games I just pick up whenever (like when my kid goes down for a nap) and put down whenever (like when he wakes up).

Tomorrow, however, might mean a new game for me. Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is coming out!

I do hope to not be as obsessed with this one though. There are some things going on (and coming up) in my life that I would like to share and write about, so I hope to find the time and motivation to keep writing.

Who says we don't get seasons and changing leaves in Southern California? I smile every time I drive through this street.
