I like the green ones

I was directed to a very interesting site about a month ago by a friend in the department. The site was VNES. Countless of us have now lost untold hours on that site. Such is the way of life. However, this last Sunday I checked the site again and they had updated it (even without the update there was plenty there to keep me busy for life). They had added one of my favorite games from childhood, A Boy and His Blob. I immediately sat down and started playing it. Of course the joy was short lived because I had forgotten very little from the game and proceeded to beat it on my second attempt, as soon as I refamiliarized myself with the jellybeans. Oh well, such is life.

He Walk!

That is to say, he walks in much the same way that he walked before. He uses crutches. The one minor difference is that I also consent to put a slight bit of weight on my bad foot before deciding that it would be a bad idea. At this time it's too late though and I'm committed to the action. The crutches help alleviate the weight put on the foot and I move forward with a little hopping limp. Good times are being had all around.
