PostHeaderIcon Getting ready for the Epic USA Roadtrip

The time is almost upon us, only 3 weeks to go until the big USA roadtrip. Meaning this will probably be my last blogpost until April. I’m sure I’ll be posting pictures and stuff on Facebook and Twitter during the trip so watch me there. I think it’ll be the first time since I started this blog in August 2007 that there won’t be at least a monthly update … but fun comes first :)

Only possible bummer could be my ears. They are still not healed, in fact both are giving me issues at the moment. Had to cancel my business trip to Ukraine next week because of it while taking a whole bunch of medicines. So fingers crossed, still 3 weeks to get better !

We had a great team event with Thomas Cook Software Development, another LAN party at the Outpost in Ghent. We mostly played Modern Warfare 3 which was great fun. There was also a bit of Starcraft 2 which made us all want Heart of the Swarm even more, why is Blizzard taking so long ? Hurry up guys ! :) But 2012 promises to be a good gaming year anyways: Diablo 3, Torchlight 2, Mass Effect 3, Farcry 3, Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion, Guildwars 2, etc. Yeah, this year will be epic gaming wise and it’ll start with Mass Effect 3 in a few weeks (but for me it’ll be for after the USA).

I also went to visit Valery which had been ages ago. Was great fun to see her and the rest of her family again. They got me addicted to Wordfeud, which I’m now playing against almost all of them :) We also went back to the Japanese restaurant we always go to, which was very yummy as usual. Needless to say I stuffed myself :)

Other than that, Finn is still growing rapidly (I feel like I say that every post). He got his first pair of shoes a few days ago and manages to crawl down off things, it’s great to see :) He can clap his hands if you ask him to, but waving when saying bye he still hasn’t figured out :)

My birthday is also coming up, but the good news is that you still have a good 2 weeks to get me a present (hint: Coolblue gift certificates !) :)

Well wish me luck with the ears and tons of fun in the USA and see you back on this blog in April ! ;)
