Not long now

  Nearly done with this work week which has been far too busy for its own good. Then finally on Monday we get to fly to England (yay 11 hours in a plane) for a visit which has been a while coming now.

  We picked up the keys to the caravan yesterday and had our walkthrough. It was meant to take 2 hours but we were done in 30 minutes. Looking everything over it was all pretty logical where stuff was and how to use it. Not sure why it was meant to take as long as they said it would, maybe people just need things explaining to them carefully. I don't know. Didn't get a chance to see how to hook up the tow hitch obviously since we don't have one on the car yet but we will do that when we get back from England.

  Been doing some thinking on another subject I want to rant about that my wife has been stressing about. I need to find the right words to put together my argument (or at least my opinion which is always the right one obviously). There are a few things in the world which annoy me, especially when it is a result of what people and the media try to persuade everybody (themselves included) what the "right" thing is. Not sure if I'll get it written down before we go but maybe this weekend I'll have a bit of time to express it. Pictures may also be required to explain my point so I need to find ones to illustrate my point.

  I'm also hurriedly trying to finish up Dragon Age 2 before we go away. I think I'm close having got the game clock to over 40 hours now in almost 3 weeks of playing. The conversations in this game are much more interesting than the first since your main character is actually voiced as opposed to a mute cipher as in the first game. The recycled environments drag on a bit though thankfully they look much better than the very murky look the first game had. The change in art style is most notable when characters from the first game show up and they look quite different, and in a couple of cases very different, from how they originally where shown.

  Going to do some more work now before it gets too busy here and I get interrupted a million times. Just finished breakfast as well while typing this (quite an achievement typing and eating cereal at the same time). Today I had cocoa krispies for a change rather than the honey nut cheerios I've had for a while now. I may switch back and forth or even try a combined bowl one day to see how that turns out (yeah I'm strange in my tastes sometimes).
