March ‘09 rocked our world and I heartily look forward to April. Guildy will clearly remember early in March I enlightened her about the true nature of March. Winter may be over (well maybe not, judging by the recent coldness) but in the spring thaw all minds turn to the actual year ahead and start to turn things over. In the spring thaw, we ask ourselves, what will we make of this year – what will it make of us? We ponder what we will do differently.

I myself have several plans for the year ahead.

Also, I think I will have to renege on the pact. I think it was an infantile response to an infantile fight. I’d call it an argument, or disagreement, but those words are too nice for what went down.

Last Sunday we had a rather pleasant evening, though I have to say I think I was rather abrasive and the neighbors downstairs must have appreciated my habit of stomping my foot on the floor when I’m having a good time. Thanks to Guildy for hosting the evening, which was a very excellent Fakesgiving.

Striker and I beat Resident Evil 5 last weekend as well, which, I have to say, is one of the funnest games I’ve played in recent memory. I think the old style of Resident Evil games is dead, but this new style definitely addresses the new arcs that the storyline has to take. It’s the kind of dangerous world that the first 3 games eluded to, and while the fourth game definitely seemed like it was way out there, Resident Evil 5 brings it back in line, and ties it securely in place with the rest of the series.

I declare a penis pact! If you have a penis, you are forbidden from getting involved in the women – fights.

This accomplishes 2 things:

First, your wife/fiance can confide in you if she is having problems with the womens. As men, we are, quite naturally, in a position to offer any and all advice. However, ours is a pact of non-interference.

Second, it keeps the diplomatic channels open. If I, a man, notice you engaging in the women’s conflicts, I may have to ask you, “I’m sorry, Do you have a penis?” To which the only natural response is, “Yes!” and backing down from the conflict.

Also, no more watching House. It’s rubbish.
