  LD's June 2009 Monthly Blog

  I can't believe another month has already passed. Time has been really flying by lately. First off I'd like to wish everyone a happy Canada day. Canada day was yesterday but better late than never. Also I'd like to wish all my U.S friends a happy 4th of July in a few days. June was a fantastic month for movies as well as music. I was able to catch up and watch a lot of the movies I've wanted to see for a long time. About 10 movies could have easily been my movie of the month. Unfortunately my interest in gaming has seriously decreased recently. I'm having a hard time getting into them and I'm not sure why but maybe it's because of the gorgeous weather. I don't spend a lot of time inside during the summer, its way too nice outside. Once the nice weather ends, I'll probably get back into playing games more often. To be honest though, I'd much rather the weather stay nice forever, even if it means barely ever playing a game.

  May was a pretty good month for me. The weather has started getting very nice so I've spent most of my time out and about. It's hard to play games and be on the computer when it is such a nice day out. I watch movies at night so that explains why I've still been watching a lot of movies, just haven't got much gaming or gamespotting time in. I guess I'm just living my life.
