(no subject)

My computer died earlier this week. It had still been freezing up, as always, and I think my hard drive had finally had enough and just died. Fortunately, it's not completely dead, so I'm able to retrieve some data from it, but it can't be used right now. Just to save us the trouble, my fiance ordered a new hard drive for me until we can isolate the overall problem.

During my PC-less week, I ended up renting Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. I had heard good things about it, and I sure as hell was not disappointed. A little predictable, yes, but the combat is really fluid and fun. I have to take it back tonight, but I'll probably end up buying it if I can find it on sale.

My fiance and I also got tickets to see Video Games Live in Saint Charles, Illinois. I'm really excited about that, since it'll be the first real vacation we've taken together that didn't involve either of our families. We're also going to see a show at Medieval Times, as well as spend some time sight-seeing in Chicago.

Oh, and best thing ever about today? My fiance went to McDonald's tonight and got me a Pinkie Pie toy. :)
