Various updates
I am going to buy this game: World of Goo. I've played the demo and I need to play more!
In other gaming news, Mario Party is very fun. And my brother has restarted Zelda: Twilight Princess and now I want to play it again.
I interrupted my re-reading of The Malloreon (I'm in the fourth book now) to read A Study in Scarlet (the first Sherlock ( Read more... )
