What Happens in San Antonio is Even Better Than Vegas

So last year RuFfNeCk went to Las Vegas for conference and as he was missing our anniversary, came home with an autograph and a pic from my beloved Tim Schafer:



So since he is missing our anniversary AGAIN this year for conference, he once again left with strict instructions that he was to get another autograph for me as penance. He wasn't sure who would be there this year but I didn't care, I just want my freakin' anniversary congratulatory autograph.

Well, leave it to RuFfNeCk to blow last year out of the water by having someone call and wish me a happy anniversary personally and that person was...

PETER MOLYNEUX!!!!!

Fable has been my go-to when gaming. It was the first game I played on the original Xbox and Fable II came out right after I had ICandee Jr so this franchise will forever hold a place in my heart.

So he gets on the phone and starts talking and all I could think of to say was, "Oh my God, I love Fable!!!!!" lol Oh well, I still got to talk to Peter Molyneux. :D

Today has been a good day...and my husband is awesome.

What Happens In Vegas...Is Awesome.

So RuFfNeCk was going to guest post about his trip to Vegas but he hasn't done it yet and I'm impatient so...here's some pics!

A trip to In-N-Out Burger (order from the secret menu of course):



A lucky dollar in the slot machine:



The first time he accosted Tim Schafer (under my strict instructions):



And the second time (this time successfully getting his autograph for me...what a sweet husband I have!):



All in all, he had a great time at the conference and I got Tim Schafer's autograph so it was an awesome trip for the both of us...

Oh Yes It Was Ladies Night

Last night I had some girlfriends over for a girl's night and it proved two things:

1. I have great friends

and 2. I am totally awesome on Rock Band drums. Since RuFfNeCk has the instruments in his game room, we moved in there and made him our Monkey Butler Game Runner. I've been able to play Rock Band exactly once since ICandee Jr got here so last night was a great time for me indeed.

Today we're stalking Best Buy to try and score some of their $10 game sale games and then hopefully I'll be able to start playing a little Call of Duty 4 (yeah, yeah, I'm behind I know...). :P

UPDATE: Score! We got ahead of the unwashed masses and acquired these games for a total of 60 bucks:

Pure
Unreal Tournament III
Infinite Undiscovery
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (2 copies because I don't share)
Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3

ICandee, You Game 2: Electric Boogaloo

Well, here we are!

Welcome to the new home of ICandee, You Game! It's...

BIGGER

BETTER

PINKER

And yes, much cooler! I am still working on moving all of my archive posts from MSN Spaces to Blogspot (why did I blog so much over the past three years! ARGH!) but why make you wait any longer for my gaming no hows, er...know hows and various witty remarks?

Now, on with the update: RuFfNeCk is a "big wheel at the cracker factory" now called "Mr. Manager", ICandee Jr, our almost 5 month old gamer girl, turns over on a regular basis and my doctored 360 is still operating. All is right with the world...you know, I'm feeling generous...

So let's celebrate my grand reopening, eh? How about some free gaming schwag? Here's the deal: I just know that all of you missed me terribly while I was on the move and are just waiting with bated breath to welcome me back and wish me luck, yes? Good! I want to see 25 well wishes life on this post. Once we reach 25 comments, I will draw a name at random and that person will receive some gaming schwag goodness from yours truly. Tell your friends, tell your neighbors but you can only comment once so there it is! If we get 25 comments (or even over 25) there will be hell to pay! Wait...that's not right...

So press the "A" button and let's get started...
