HOLY CRAP I’ve actually been playing something! Fable II has been monopolizing my gaming time just as the first one did when that came out oh so long ago. This sequel is more like an improved version of the first one which is completely fine with me. There’s more to do and what you choose has a more lasting and real affect on the world. I find myself splitting time with doing primary quests and just messing around. It’s become somewhat of a mini game to see how many wives I can accumulate but that quickly becomes a bit much to handle, much like what happens in real life. I’ll probably talk a bit more about it on the next BitCast.

Last night the wife, our friend and I went on a Friday Night Lights season 3 binge. I’ve been accumulating the episodes since this new season began and this was the first time we watched any of them. If you’ve never seen the show you might think you have to be a big football fan to enjoy it which really isn’t the case. The show really revolves around the characters and their relationships living in a football-obsessed town. The relatively unknown cast know their characters really well and that helps to let yourself get absorbed into their world.

This week in music has been filled with binging on The Decemberists since I’m going to their show tonight in Philly. They’re a very unique band in terms of sound and lyrics. I’ve often described them as “colonial”, like they should have been making music in the American Revolution period. Really they should be a really pretentious band but they’re melodies and hooks make them very welcoming.

That’s about the size of it for, What’cha Been Up To?
