addiction to 4square + other

so in case you haven't been keeping up with the stupid thing that social networking has become... there's this thing called foursquare (similar to the iphone facebook "places" app) that allows you to check into venues and see who else is there that also uses the app. if you check into a place the most you get a crown. this is why i am addicted. i will not lie. i really really want a legitimate crown. i don't know why i want it. i know as soon as i get it i'll be super over this thing.

right now at this moment i'm one check in away from mayorship in six different venues! so so close. someone asked me if i care that people know where i am at every moment. the answer to this is: no. also, i usually never remember to do the check in until i'm leaving a place so even if you were to show up i probably wouldn't be there anymore.

i've been eating an overwhelming amount of j.j. dolan's pizza lately. i am too addicted to the pepperoni from there. i know i should just try ordering one of their specialty pizzas one of these days but after the let down that was the white pizza i don't think i want to. i'll just stick with what i know.

my dreams of living in my room in complete isolation are quickly becoming a tangible reality. my dad is giving me his fridge thing (it has no freezer but can keep beverages/snacks cool). i'm excited. i've been searching craigslist for decent monitors or TVs but it's hard. most are asking me to travel out to get it and i still lack a car (which is totally not going to be an issue anymore because i'm really going to learn how to drive. shooting for a car sometime in january).

anyway fallout is pretty much the same as fallout 3 except that you can upgrade weapons and ammo which makes it a little harder to play. my hunting rifle keeps jamming up so wandering the wasteland has become really difficult. there's also this hardcore mode that i'm intrigued by but it sounds like it's wayyy too difficult. you have to hydrate, sleep, and healing yourself is next to impossible unless you see a doctor. i don't think i could do it so i won't even try. kudos to anyone that can, though. /nerd.

oh and i tried red hook ale last night and it was delicious. the end.
