Desktop Tower Defense

I've been wasting my time. That's right. Wasting; and I love every minute of it.

I've discovered ( thanks to Alex Lindsay on tWiT MBW ... ) a game called Desktop Tower defense. Don't go near it, save yourself. Its like WoW, but way more addicting. Its an online flash game by handdrawngames.com, and boy is it good fun.

Check it out here.

Study? What is study? This game takes priority over all known bodily functions, let alone studying for exams that are far away. Okay so not that far away. Yeah, you're right; my exams are right around the corner. I should be dying of stress and heart failure, instead I've been stressing about whether or not little grey balls will find their way through my intricate defense systems.

So today, I wake up at about 8:30 and think briefly about all the poor state school suckers who had to wake up at 7:00 ( we have extra holidays, but spend more time at school overall so it balances out ).

I get my cricket gear on (after following normal hygiene protocols) and head out to Cambusdoon for some practice. Great huh? Believe it or not, I love it. My right hand is aching from two consecutive catches of balls that were at no ordinary speed. My lower-body is killing me from a dive, roll and long-stop hit in the thigh; and by jove am I glad that I wore a box today.

After practice I head over to a friend's house, do an hour or two of study with her before heading off home to catch Joey and some more Total Recall on Joost. Then, I settle in and spend the rest of my evening playing desktop tower defense. I have mastered the easy level, the fun 10k level and almost got good at the medium level which still needs some work.

Its eating my soul Alex, save me. Save me now! Oh man, I have DTD RSI.
