Yeah, I am.

Yeah exactly! I don't mind it if they start attacking me first or something similar, but just going out after rams or foxes or whatever bums me out.

I'll be doing as much as I can in Dragon Age: Inquisition, as the new Overwatch event starts next week and will undoubtedly consume my gaming time after that. In the meantime, DA:I is pretty fun so far. I'm about 20 hours in, just finished the In Hushed Whispers quest and recruited Dorian, so I've got everyone but…

Thanks! I love Duran Duran, I'll buy their albums regardless of Lohan cameos, but thankfully they're still pretty solid.

Ep 45 of The Adventure Zone (like halfway through the Eleventh Hour arc).

Alanis Morissette - "All I Really Want"
The Who - "Hall Of the Mountain King"

Well, I tried again to get into Fallout: New Vegas last week and the game bugged out on me, again, so I'm putting that aside for awhile until I'm in a better mood for it. In the meantime, I started the other game left on my backlog, Dragon Age: Inquisition.

My Favorite Murder, You Must Remember This, The Adventure Zone. I also really have a few seasonal true crime ones that I recommend, if you're into that sort of thing: Accused, In the Dark, and, of course, Serial.

I rewatched a bunch of the Harry Potter movies last week. Daniel Radcliffe was much better in those than I remembered, they really lucked out with him. On the other hand, I never realized just how drab the color palette is for most of those movies, it's disappointing.

Earth, Wind and Fire "September"
The Thrills "Not For All the Love in the World"
Harold Faltermeyer "Axel F"
The Beattle-ettes "Only Seventeen"
Metallica "Of Wolf and Man"
Kings of Leon "Knocked Up"
The Beatles "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill"
Tegan and Sara "I Run Empty"
Blink-182 "I Miss You"
Frank Ocean "Pink + White"

Yeah exactly! Plus, there were quite a few times when she goes into the Business Office by herself and doesn't tell Bigby exactly what she's doing and it was just suspicious enough to make me think the other shoe was going to drop on her. Plus, with the Big Bad Wolf being the ostensible good guy, I thought they might…

Oh, well, I've already been there (town with the roller coaster) and didn't get a companion so I've obviously messed up somehow. I'll have to backtrack and see what I missed, thanks for the info!

I'm having a hard time getting into Fallout: New Vegas and I didn't make much progress on it last week. Maybe it's because I don't have any companions yet? I just don't feel very engaged with it, so far.

I decided to do a rewatch of Arrested Development. The directing in those first few ones (by the Russos) is so damn good, no wonder they run the MCU now.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Maps"
The Like - "Waves That Never Break"
Jewel - "Who Will Save Your Soul"
Incubus - "Are You In?"
Elton John - "Levon"
The Who - "Baba O'Riley"
Madonna - "Vogue"
The Beatles - "From Me To You"
Mariah Carey - "Emotions"
HAIM - "My Song 5"

Jumping on the soft spot for Sunshine bandwagon. The Gamecube was the first console I was allowed to have (in high school), so even though I had played Mario games on friends' systems and my Gameboy, Sunshine feels like it was my first Mario game. It was goofy, and the camera definitely drove me crazy sometimes, but I…

Yeah, I think so. It's the Ultimate Edition so it came with a bunch of added stuff but I'm still pretty close to the beginning so I don't think I'll get to those for awhile.

The Transporter 2 remains my favorite Jason Statham movie. The first Transporter is great, and the Crank movies are a special kind of insane, but Transporter 2 just hits that sweet spot of ridiculous and stylish action scenes and Statham begrudgingly doing the right thing. I also love the subplot of his French…

My Fallout: New Vegas progress continues very slowly, as I am totally overwhelmed by the number of quests and what to do next. But I do love any game that lets me take as much crap as I can carry, so I like the scavenging (and I'm very glad I chose the Hoarder trait or whatever it was at the beginning) and talking to…

After you leave Eos, the game is almost all plot from there on out. You can return to Eos for sidequests (through the magic of time travel and a dog's eyes) but those last 7 chapters really fly by (it has 15, naturally). I don't remember exactly how long it took me, but once I got to that part, I finished it over a…
