Zel-kun’s Words

I haven’t posted in a few days, and that’s for a very simple reason: I have recently aqcuired a copy of Civilization IV. For those that don’t know, Civilization is a turn-based strategy game by Sid Meier, who is the mastermind behind all the Sim games.

Needless to say, its been very addictive and time-consuming.

In other news:

My car’s fixed. As it turns out, a corroded battery terminal was to blame. We cleaned it off, and it started right up. I figure I have another ten days to drive it before it breaks down again leaving my stranded somewhere in the icy Chicago winds.

I saw Zai (my girl) for the last time this year on Saturday, she’ll be going off to Houston with her family for a couple of weeks, which is sad. But on the plus side, we exchanged Christmas gifts early. She utterly trounced me with her Christmas present.

Me: Here you go, a Magical Trevor plush doll!
Zai: And here’s a custom-made ebony walking stick!

Well, its the thought that counts, right? I’m poor, but at least now I’m poor with a really nice walking stick.

More to come.

Zel-kun out.
