Back to life...back to realityWelp, it was good while it lasted?

13-months no work and finally now I'm back to Tripoli and back to work. Good times.

Kinda weird greeting your old co-workers and saying, "thank God you're safe". Normally its, "hey, how was your vacation?", but nope, just this awkward "glad you're safe" moment. Still its a pretty good thing seeing your friends/coworkers again.

Things haven't really come back to full swing persey in terms of work. still waiting on international companies coming back to Libya and getting some projects back up and running.

So that's work life, now game life: In Tripoli, NON EXISTENT! I've been playing the crap out of Mass Effect 2 back in Benghazi, and I've been sweeping the game, getting all the planets and personnell and stuff just so I can have a full crew at full power before going to take on the collectors.

I have to admit I'm playing as Female Shepard (for the same reason Jack does), and I just have to get this out of my chest: Fucking Jacob is a pussy! I understand if its harder for female Shepard to get it on with aliens and stuff, but Jacob going "MMhhhhmmm" and "We got a good thing going Shepard, let's not rush into things" seriously pisses me off. I'm like, WTF!? Seriously?

alright i'm probably blowing this out of proportion, but he just pisses me off, that's all i have to say. Gonna have to play through it again with Male Shepard--As I Should Have In The First Place--and be rejected properly like I do in the real world...by a woman.

Hmm...oh yeah, so I have the 360 here, but no TV yet. so gotta get that fixed. ME3 is probably out by now and I I can't wait to get my hands on it. Batman AC is still in my to-do list too. got lots to catch up on.

Anyways, things are good here. Not nearly as bad as i thought. Everyone in the country is going into a new debate of whether it would be beneficial to have a Federal Government or just work around a De-Centralized government. lots of hot debates. we'll see where this leads to.

Peace ya'll

You needing to say, "thank God you're safe", kind of puts my meager problems into perspective.

As long as you get to keep saying "Thank God you're safe" over and over and over again...

Ditto with the rest of them. Very glad things are getting back to normal, or as close as you can get them there. It will be very interesting to see just what happens to Libya over the next few years. History in the making

As for Jacob- I wanted to romance him. Really wanted to. Didn't work out either time and it made me like him less and less. Thane is a good one, even for an alien. And ME3 is out tomorrow, March 6th in the States. Can't wait!

I'll make the sacrifice and totally enjoy it for you ;)! I couldn't play it too long as I have these things called kids and other responsibilities (not sure if I can spell this morning!), but once the ride to school and a few errands are done, it's on :). It. Is. Awesome!

Well good luck, I'm glad to hear things seem to be getting back to some sort of semblance of normalcy.

yeah, its sorta is here. still LOTS of work needs to be done though.

Interim leader, El-Keeb, came on TV yesterday and said basically what I said, "You can't build a country in four months, that's just not realistic no matter where you are".

still gonna have to keep hoping for the...

Going back to the normal grind can be the worst part no matter what reason you were away. I was always a lil' disappointed to get back to work after evacuating from some hurricanes. But life has to go on, eh?
Mass Effect is really takin' the news this week! My friends are hella excited. I've only watched my brother play, though.

Huh, a de-centralized government is a fascinating proposition. I wonder how exactly that would work...

ditto on the going back to work, but i'm actually glad to be honest. I hate being idle and without anything to do.

ME3 looks amazing. I really can't wait to get my hands on it...probably in six months or so [[ here's to hoping prices will be much lower by then ]]

as for de-centrali...

Ah, I get it then. Definitely sounds like you guys could use a more efficient system, at any rate.

you know...that is a good question. Maybe I'll do both! import my fem shepard, play it, then play again with imported male shepard. it will be glorious! plus i'm sure there's some achievement for that somehow.

plus, my fem shepard is mostly paragon and moving her towards that direc...

Some things do translate well though, smart chicks are sexy. The running people over doesn't always float so well though.
