Busy and Stir Crazy

I'm caught in the unpleasant position of waiting for time to speed up and simultaneously wishing it would slow down. Working on my critical thesis while waiting for Mass Effect 3 is a painful experience.

Challenging, that! Um . . . maybe it can slow down while you're working on the critical thesis, but speed up when you're waiting for ME3? I don't want ME3 to come out quite yet because I have another playthrough of ME to get through (I'm part way there!), two or three more of ME2 and some research to do for a paper (which I also need to write). *g* Plus I have Portal 2 to play.

Portal 2 was a kick! I blasted through the single player mode a little fast, but that was my own fault.

Okay, time to throw myself into heavy reading--Jung, van Gennep, Campbell, Tolkien, and more.

I am looking forward to more Portal 2 I've made it through several levels--and GLaDOS is back. Oops? :)

Any thoughts on Commando verses Operative for Infiltrators? I am about to complete the relevant mission and, not having played an Infiltrator before, I am all confused! I do like the sniper rifle (a lot) and the shotgun (less fond of the pistol; it takes too long! *g*), but I am attempting to get better with the tech talents. . . .

Good luck with your reading! I think I've managed to avoid Jung. I haven't read much Campbell, and I am still stuck partway through the Lord of the Rings books. I think it's been close to 10 years that I've been stuck in the same place on them. :)

GLADoS is fun! Tell me when you get the potato.

I went with the sniper rifle, mainly because I like being away from the worst of the fighting in general. I find myself sniping in most games now, if I have the choice. Also, the cloak is a good pairing with it. My ME weapons tend to be sniper rifle, heavy pistol, heavy gun.

The reading is going well, which is nice. Funny how the more I read these books I hate, the more I at least understand them.

Not much I can do about ME3, but sending good mojo thoughts about the thesis to you!

Aww! *hugs* I was lucky enough to get the perfect advisor for the thesis, so I'm hoping it'll be mostly painless. And thanky thanky for the adorable christmas goodies!
