 After two months I  finally beat my all time high score on Bejeweled and suddenly-after two freakin' hours deeply immersed in the game- my screen went completely blank. And wouldn't come back on. My monitor had died.  And I had lost my new score. Two days later, here I am back again, but can't seem to get the mojo going to try again. sigh

Oh man...that blows...

At least you have the PERFECT icon for the occasion!

Have you seen The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters? I'll be showing it to my class later this semester in conjunction with the lesson on video games ;) .

I've got a couple of gaming icons, but that one is my favorite.

I've never seen that-it sounds interesting though.

At least I got a new, wider screen monitor out of it. (trying to look on the bright side here. LOL)

I think I was reminded of the K of K because it contains one of those situations -- of the perfect game that then...wasn't. It's a pretty funny documentary.

Yay new monitor!

[winsomeone]

That's exactly what happened to me-I was really in the zone and then..wasn't. LOL

I wonder if I can find that documentary somewhere around here?

That seriously sucks, I'd be pissed off. That game is addicting, isn't it? I'm constantly playing it on my iPod.

Jedi bought me a couple games from Steam for my birthday last year, including Bejeweled. It's way addicting-I loves it muchly.

Oh, the horror!

[winsomeone]

I know, right?

I did get a shiny new larger monitor though, so it wasn't all bad.

[lifefailsme]

Bloody hell. This is why I don't play them LOL

Well I hope you manage to do it!

[winsomeone]

It was utterly wretched. But now I has big new monitor.

[lifefailsme]

That is very cool.

BTW it is very good to see you *hug*

[winsomeone]

Thanks Sweetie. It's good to talk to you, too. I haven't been around much-too depressed over the job that isn't to do much of anything.

[enigmaticblues]

*pets you* I hate it when that happens.

[winsomeone]

It truly sucks, but what are ya goin' to do?
