So this is my current situation, I'm trying to get back into my normal groove. I'm a little (a lot) behind here reading and commenting, I haven't been listening to my 50 songs a day, the podcast list is backed up to about a week, and I'm spending the time that I would normally dedicate to those activities to randomly searching YouTube for various videos. April is quickly becoming my lazy month. Other than that everything is a-ok here in breezy Southern California. The Coachella kids are gone...until the end of the week but there is a movie being filmed at the Polo Grounds (where Coachella takes place) and I've been debating if I should go be an extra. The only requirement is that I have to dress like I'm going to a country music concert, and I think I have to donate $10 to Lady Gaga's charity. The bonus is they are going to raffle off various prizes throughout the filming so it might be fun. We shall see if I can find the free time to check it out.
Other than my current craziness I played a couple of games
Lego Dimensions: The Lego Batman Movie Story Pack – PS4
I finished the first chapter of this game and just like the rest of Lego Dimensions its longer than a normal chapter in a Lego game.
I used this guy but I found him to be slower than regular Batman. He might be stuck in the plastic bin when get back into the groove with this game and figure out my ideal lineup. I'm also bugged that Lego made certain powers only available to one character. One of the unshockable sections I encountered was only available if I owned the female Ghostbusters Story Pack for one of their figures (there's no way I will buy this steaming pile except if it was cheap) and renting the figure in game is a bit pricey if you didn't unlock the 2x multiplier. Why can't I use the regular Ghostbusters figure I have with the good Ghostbusters Story Pack?
NBA 2K16 – Steam
I am 10 games away from the end of the season and I am ready to jump into the playoffs. I'm currently debating on simming the rest of the season. I also need to make this season's draft and free agency count because I traded away my first round pick on what could be a rented player. I'd like to keep him but we shall see on who's available on the free agency market or who's available when its my time to pick in the draft.
Grid Autosport – Steam
I am in the Tuner section and man the races are a little harder because of the shorter track. If you don't make a move earlier in the race or get stuck behind slow traffic you're done. Hopefully this clears up a bit as I progress through the Tuner section.
Transformers Forged To Fight – iOS
I'm almost finished with the second chapter and the difficulty is getting tougher. I still refuse to join an alliance or raid other player's bases because that will open me up to the same. I figure I can probably do that in a bit and start off slow because my base isn't ranked that high (bottom) and my fighters are starting to be maxed out so I can have some temporary fun taking out the new players before the guys who spend actual money or sink A LOT of time into the game start kicking my behind.
Alright Pixlpeeps I am off. Have a good week!
That's all for now, more later!

OMG is that Batman with a sword and horse? Ha ha.
THat extra thing might be fun. How the fuck do u dress for a country western concert, wear boots and a ten gallon hat?
I really wished I raced more in games. I was playing Driveclub VR when I first got the VR thing but I've been busy and haven't had the time. WHen Gran Turismo comes out though.....
Haha yep he's in BatArmor.
Yeah I ended up not going, but they did strongly encourage wearing jeans. I was going to wear jeans, plaid shirt, and a Dallas Cowboys baseball cap. To me that's Western.
Racing games are fun, even in spurts. I haven't played as much as I used to.
I've been picking up Skylanders figures lately because they are a buck each. I might do the same with Dimensions when they hit that price around me.
Heck yeah! I saw that I think GameStop was doing a promotion like that. I should have looked around and bought some SuperCharged and other figures I might use. Speaking of, I really should finish SuperCharged.
I just wrote down all the Superchargers I don't have. I'd like to go out again, but I'm trying not to spend anything for a while. At least until I'm working again.
