    All this birthday talk just made me realize I'll be halfway to 40 soon =(

    EDIT - Man, I WISH I was halfway to 40. I'd be young then! I meant I'll be halfway through my 30s and thus closer to 40 than 30.

    Special "losing my insurance" birthday giveaways! Meant to make these earlier and end it earlier, but I got sidetracked this week. You know, seeing the doctor while I still can, doing some odd jobs, etc.

    Here are some SteamGift giveaways. G and T group. You know the drill.

    Today is my actual b-day, and I went to a Party City yesterday to buy some cone hats, some kazoos, and a pump for balloons. Not for a party or anything, I just had some balloons lying around I've been meaning to inflate. As for the kazoos and hats,

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiaICoPqZfE

    Some little girl was really upset her mom wouldn't let her get the Power Rangers napkins cause they were "for boys". I got kinda bummed out over that.

    Also, it seems impossible to just get regular party hats anymore. Everything is branded, and it's all fucking Minions or stuff that has nothing to do with parties. Animals, pirates, etc.

    I think you people are crazy for remembering birthdays


    I keep a list. Every time I learn one of y'alls birthdays, it gets recorded for future reference...
    I sorta want to tell everyone in the evening on my birthday and see you all scramble to nuke me.

    Or maybe come up with a really difficult math problem and see if you can figure it out.

    So that game with the limited number of lives that counts down and will eventually become unplayable is now for sale:
    http://store.steampowered.com/app/290490/

    I'm considering it just because of how innovative it sounds.

    The Enhanced Steam plugin said the game was being sold elsewhere for a dollar.

    Curious, I clicked through only to see that this game has a similar name with a different game that came out years ago and seems to be about sheep.

    I've got somewhat over a year until 40, but I feel like I'm ahead of schedule and things have decided to start falling apart now.
    Have been dabbling a bit outside of Steam apart from TF2 lately. Partaking in some Bayonetta 2. Will probably finish that up tonight.
    Maybe I'll have a TellTale weekend and catch up on Game of Thrones and Borderlands.

    You know your birthday is close when faceless corporations like Best Buy send you a coupon to use for it a few weeks early because they just want to get it all in one go. Thanks for reminding me I turn 30 soon.

    Looks like Mafia 2 just got removed from Steam. Weird. Store page is still up but you can't buy anything.

    Maybe a remaster is coming before Mafia 3? Guess it could just be a license issue, I think that's why Mafia 1 is gone.

    Close, but not quite. I don't try to keep it secret though, and if I have my act together there will be some hobbit birthday gifts getting sent out around then.

    Yeah, I didn't have you on my list (yet). I had to go off an old forum post dated Oct 18 where you mentioned a friend giving you something for your birthday but it wasn't clear if it was that day or a bit before.

    Bery knows what's up though. ;)

    So, been playing a lot of magic duels. Anyone playing that? I think the game is pretty good. The story is challenging to me, learning a new deck for each situation. They also don't give you much to go off, so they are fun and it feels good when you do beat one. On this, anyone from here playing? I bet it might make a fun get together / tournament with some decks. It is F2P, so anyone can get in on it.

    I'm also playing on the PA Ark server, that is fun. If you don't have ark, I think the devs are doing a great job on adding content. If I look at were I started, and were the content is now, it is just so much more.

    One last thing, Mrs. Alure texted me this:
    "Luke just said dad and very clearly a couple times."

    My almost 6th month old's first word was dad. . . Now I need to get him a steam account right? Hum, wonder if I can get him to say steam next. . . Although I told her I would try for mom.
