boys and video games

ugh! I swear, they're all the same!

The Frenchman is downstairs playing Kingdom Hearts. he's on the very first level where you have to beat Riku. He finally figured out how to do it (after loosing 15 times), so now he has to beat him 16 times. Even though he already won once, he has to proove himself better than the game. Aerith did practically the same thing.

And they wonder why it's easy for me to study and/or fall asleep while they're playing these things. :)

LOL It's an ego thing with us guys, definitely! We can't stand to think that there is a machine out there that is better at something than we are. It's sick, I know, but that's just how most of us are. I spend far too much time playing video games, too. I'm going to have to play Shadow Hearts: Covenant a second time because I didn't do something right the first time, and I HAVE to do it all the right way. We are all perfectionists at heart about something. :P

*sigh*

I beat Riku once and was done with it. I asked Alyson and she understood perfectly. In LSL: Magna Cum Laude it keeps track entirely of your wins and losses and it apparently torments Al if she has more losses than wins. Yes, I'm sure its no surprise that I'm the girl in the relationship.
