Wow, I have no life. If I’m not working all day and half the night, then I’m knocking down walls in a feeble attempt to improve my abode. Fortunately, I have been rescued from such awful monotony by: Civilization 4, which is possibly the greatest game ever conceived by man. Of course, it’s not all good; because it is [undoubtedly] more addictive than a cocktail of internet gambling, heroin, cigarettes and pornography that is injected directly into the brain. Consequently, I really have no life.
In an undoubtedly doomed attempt to render the soma-like qualities of Civ4 ineffectual therefore, I am hoping to resurrect my blogging career now that I have found a suitable and worthy host in the hope that my second greatest addiction will hold some power over it. It’s akin to hiring a vampire to ward off the unwanted attentions of a werewolf; bound to come to no good in the end.
Unless you’re a Mummy or perhaps an evil leprechaun or some other mystical creature unfazed by the making of pacts with the undead. Or a necromancer that can raise an army of zombies to do battle with the vampire. Which might work.
Anyway, I fully intend to compose something meaningful, just as soon as I’m back in the swing of things and I’ve tweaked all the gubbins and built bridges and stuff. Number one bridge-builder and gubbins-tweaker that’s me.

Hey, there is no shame to falling prey to Civilization. That game almost cost me my first year of studies. In fact, you just reminded me that Civ4 was released. I’m off to the store.
