The Stupid Gamer

Some time around last Thursday I must have come into contact with an Infected. I’m pretty sure I know who it was and where it was, but I guess you can never be sure. Either way, by Friday I was doubled over and clutching cold porcelain and realizing that it was going to be a rough weekend. During the holiday rush, however, deep down everybody kind of wishes they can get sick so that they have a valid excuse to sit home and put in unnatural amounts of time into their pile of new games, but that becomes a problem when you can’t sit up without nausea setting in. And no, you certainly can’t engage in any multiplayer gaming while under the effects of H1N1 because you’re doomed to moments when you’ll need to simply drop the controller and run for the bathroom.

So here I am today, still sick, but finally back on my feet. In theory I could get a lot of gaming in today, but no, my 360 is still not back from the Microsoft repair center. Can I blame that one on the swine flu? No, but it’s just as devastating.

Before anybody comments and asks what the point of this post was, I’ll just come out and admit that it’s nothing more than just simple whining. But seriously people, if you have it available to you get the H1N1 vaccine shot!
