What's Black, White and Read all-over?
Apparently I am only 163% faster than the American national average. That's...not impressive, when you consider where they set the bar. Ouch, kick in the pants I need to stop being lazy. How about you?

That's Just Messed Up
Sometimes it's just a "little" impressive, one's ability to rationalize utter nonsense.
Guild Wars 2 is $59.99.
The fantasy shopping list I stayed up till 0230 last night making amounts to $90.89*. (Foodie, much? Foodgawker is my porn, Nuts.com my wannabe dealer. Some people have fantasy football, I have fantasy cooking/baking/eating. The difference is sometimes mine becomes reality.) Not to mention my newfound PB2 love, avg. $50+...if I break $100, free shipping.
Being on a tight budget, means buying one voids the other. On the one hand, a major time waster (albeit fun), on the other, a major body shape killer (albeit delicious). And though I'm entitled to my cheat days I can't keep that stuff around the house after. Cravings will eventually rear their monstrous heads (I picture it like a hydra) and that "for later" will be destroyed, as each I temptation I slay spouts more and more heads, gradually making the beast stronger with the knowledge "it's there, it's there", until I am overwhelmed! ARHG! It's the peanut butter Fibre1 all over again! ...But I digress.
Also, considering it's kinda part of my career to not be what some scientists may refer to as "one fat muthafucker"...
In effect, what I'm seeing here is vidya games are actually the healthier choice. Huh, who knew! Proven by science. There, I'm glad we figured this out together.
*If you're wondering, this is what I had limited myself to on my fantasy candy binge to get to that price:

Fuck you and your siren song, hydra.
And yet, this is just makes me happy to dance to.
