A little whine first

Today, I got to know a whole new dimension of having a sore throat ... after getting up this morning, I felt totally miserable, not even being able to bend or turn my head without pain, not to mention swallowing ... so after visiting the doctor being on standby duty this weekend, I'm now sitting here with one hell of a tonsilitis.
At least, I'm able to swallow with only a moderate amount of pain by now, thans to the meds, but they're making me feel rather dizzy. Ah well, can't have everything at once.

Anyway, somehow my drug-clouded mind thinks a journal update is in order ...

Moved

I'm finally living in my own apartment! I moved last week-end and I'm really enjoying it here. Sure, things are somewhat unfamiliar, but I'm already starting to feel at home here. And the flat looks really nice now that it's fully furnished.

I think my gerbils are taking the move, well, too. They're still a little bit more skittish than they used to be, but the seem to be settling in fine, and they're definitely enjoying their new spot, from where they have a better look on the going-ons than they had before.

Dragon Age - it's finally here!

Last thursday, I finally obtained my copy of Dragon Age. It was quite the hassle to get, since due to an production error, which rendered the discs useless, the game wasn't avaiable in German stores at the release date. I tried getting it from one of those websites which sell games for digital downloads, and I can tell you: Most site's precautions regarding their customer's being of age are simply ridiculus.

Anyway, I finally was successfull and after having played the game for some time I can only say that it certanly doesn't disappoint. The plot seems decent until now, I like the companions (isn't Allistair great? ), and I'm really impressed by the world and it's lore the guy at Bioware created. I especially like their ideas concerning the Fade, magic and demons.

So if you're a fan of fantasy RPGs and don't own Dragon Age yet, go and get it!

Concerning features

While I'm rather fond of this layout, I absolutely hate it that, when you write longer journal entrys, you've got to somehow fill this pesky sidebar - I may be odd, but I can't stand empty sidebars.

Thus I am forced to put my features in the sidebar for the time being, but due to it's width, I can only do this with deviations of a certain format.
I need a new layout ...

Have a nice day!
