Nice and simple, this blog. This is a post containing exactly (ctrl-c; ctrl-v) What I plan to do now my laptop is being sent for repair. Told you this was going to be simple. My laptop is being sent back to acer after my disk drive broke, meaning most of my time that I normally spend on my laptop will be spent doing... nothing. So I figured, I'd better think of something, and here's my to-do list for the time my lappy spends on holiday (and yes, I'm actually going to print it off and use it as a checklist). UPDATE: I recieved the lappy back this week, and have now updated what I did / didn't do for you to laugh at / stare at in dusgust.
- Use the old computer for working on some website stuff - I'm not gonna completely desert you... but I'm gonna try and avoid the computer (aka: The Snail with Little Brain (read: The Slow Computer with Little RAM / Hard Drive . Graphical Capabilities / General Processing Prowess)) DID
- Finally complete Super Mario Galaxy as Luigi Didn't even touch it
- Play a bit more of DISASTER Day Of Crisis, whilst laughing at everyone from America who can't play it Didn't even touch it
- Catch up with repeats of Desperate Housewives every morning at 9:10am on E4 DONE
- Cry about how I'm wasting my life DONE
- Start watching through LOST on DVD again from season one - maybe have a marathon where I watch a whole season in two days? WATCHED FAMILY GUY INSTEAD
- Play lots of Water Warfare, The Conduit and Mario Kart Wii online PLAYED THE CONDUIT ONLINE... THAT'S IT
- Get all the high scores on Wii Sports Resort during the weekend after launch DIDN'T DO BECAUSE GAMESBASEMENT DIDN'T SEND ME IT ON TIME FORCING ME TO CRY
- Do a few reviews at some point ;) DIDN'T DO BECAUSE THE OLD COMPUTER DIDN'T LIKE ME
- Do the podcast for Friday 30th of July Wait... that's not even a proper date!? I did last weeks - I should've paid more attention to what I was typing when I made this list
- Be more active - maybe get my tennis skills up to scratch more, since Virtua Tennis doesn't seem to like me? DONE... SORTA (does swingball count?)
- Go into town and take my mouse back, since it broke and has a lifetime warranty, and put the money towards a better mouse so I don't have to use the friggin touchpad on my laptop when it comes back DONE
- Keep up with my daily dose of Brain Training DONE
- Do most of the outdoorsy stuff this week, since I just discovered that kids leave school on Friday for the Summer D: SORTA DONE
- Buy the full version of Peggle on Steam rather than just play the demo endlessly, since I can't play TF2 on the old computer FOUND THE PEGGLE NIGHTS DEMO SO I HAD SOME MORE FUN THERE INSTEAD
- Force my friend Oli to FINALLY get around to finishing off the Directors Cut mode in House of the Dead Overkill with me, whether he likes it or not DID... SORTA (halfway through, we are)
- Try and complete Bit.Trip BEAT. Emphasis on "try" TRIED
- Get around to playing Boom Blox Smash Party, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and Virtua Tennis 2009 to death, so I can send them all back to Tesco Rentals in exchange for something new SHOULD'VE DONE
- Dance, probably DONE
- Do none of the things on this list that involve getting up off my backside, and pretend to do them instead. DONE
There you go, then. Now I've got my lappy back, I can do more work in half the time... and then waste the time I would've otherwise spent wasting. Yeah. |
