I have been SO slack since arriving.
In keeping in touch with the old country that is. I'm mostly slack on that because I'm busy doing stuff here. When I'm not working, I'm socialising or just plain not working. I landed a job at EB, by the way, for the people that don't know. I haven't quite sold my soul yet, but man. The things you learn are TERRIFYING.
But yeah, even SMSing. I get sent SMSes and I'm all "I'm in the middle of something or something! I'll reply later!" and then I never do. And after that I'm all "Well, I'll address that in the big mass email I keep meaning to send back home!" but I never do that either.
And calling. Don't get me started on calling. I received an SMS the other day from Tom, and I never replied. And then I was all "Goddamn, I NEVER reply! I'ma call instead!" and... yep. I never did that either.
SO! What I'm basically trying to say here is, I'm sorry all, if you've SMSed or tried to contact me in some way since my arrival, but I've been pretty freaking slack/busy.
I have my own theory for some of it, of course. Being that, before I moved I spent most of my evenings and sometimes days on the internet talking to Tim and doing less socialising than I should, and less video games. So now that I don't need the internet to talk to him, I've tended to shy away from the internet entirely, using my computer for games for the most part.
And then, with our purchase of an XBox 360, I'm using it even less. I've never owned a console before, but man, the 360 is a beautiful machine.
So yep! I'm usually selling video games, playing video games, or talkin' video games. And man, life is pretty sweet.
But yeah! This was only gonna be a short email to let you know that I'm a jerk, that I'm okay, and that things are fun here. There might be a longer, better update soon, but I wouldn't hold your breath, looking at the track record. In fact, with this tiny update, I might even put some emails on top priority instead. So... look forward to that I guess! Unless, y'know, I get distracted. By video games. And christmas shopping.
Life is GOOD.
P.S. Buy everyone you know Mass Effect for Christmas. Even yourself. Even if they don't have a 360. One day they will. And they'll want it.

Oh man Its pretty awsome having you here! I have sorta wiped my memory clean of how it used to be with you all the way over in the east... sorta like how jeremy added john to all his tafe memories (even tho john never went to tafe with jem and felix) lol
I was starting to think you might be... well i don't want to say dead because that sounds horrible and reflects badly on me because i didn't try amazingly hard to find out that you weren't... but i thought you were waylaid by enemies and had to defend yourself in the very least. Good to hear you're enjoying yourself!
