Brainssssssss....

No I'm not a zombie but I feel like one this early in the morning. 
My bf got a new job so we're having to adjust to his schedule before he starts work. It's 6am as I write this and I'm not used to getting up so early. So if this post doesn't make any sense... or if it's full of typos, that's my excuse. 

Onto the gaming!
Yes I'm hooked on Borderlands 2! I took a few pics with my phone... I don't think they are big spoilers but if you're paranoid, look away. 

Once I heard about a head customization that I really wanted, I farmed for a couple hours to get it to drop:

I'm not so much into bridal type stuff (yeah I'm not your typical female, lol) but I like her hair style with this look. I rocked the Pink Pandoracorn for a while so wanted a new color. So I passed that look onto my... gunzerker!

Bwuahaha I laugh everytime I see him. My siren is pure healing spec for co-op so I wanted another character for pure dps. He's level 50 now and totally a glass cannon. Massive damage but I get the snot kicked out of me if get hit, lol. I don't think I can solo Terramorphous the Invincible (yet) but the two of us can kill him together no problem. Might try a different spec but when I see damage over a million with one shotgun blast, it's kinda addicting. I'm happy to share either of my siren or gunzerker builds if anyone is interested. I also have a level 50 commando but haven't really messed around with dps builds yet. <3 the turret. Zero isn't someone I'm interested in playing and only leveled him for the achievement. I am SUPER EXCITED about the mechromancer and can't wait to play her. Who wouldn't want a robot pet? :D 

My bf's game keeps freezing on almost every loading screen. Turns out it's a glitch caused by using the quest sorting system. I guess if you sort, ignore, or track quests it's possible your game will freeze in loading screens. I've never used it since he lead the game when we played. Thankfully no freezing or glitches for myself. After hearing about a few people I know having their badass rank reset, I'm super paranoid. Not sure what causes it but fingers crossed! My rank is over 9000! (snicker) Gearbox Software is super awesome and I'm glad to hear they're working on the issues.

Sniper rifles just aren't ever my thing in video games... I'm somewhat aggressive in shooter games but I found this:

and holy cow it does a lot of damage. :O

So what's next after Borderlands 2? Well I figure after my guy starts work soon I'll fire this up:

I almost painted my nails black because of the gloomy cover but picked my darkest blue instead. Just not into black polish I guess. :) I also ordered the PAL version to stack, love point and click games! From what I read, it's a 10 hour 1000. Nat Geo TV and Sesame Street TV are also waiting for me. They come with codes for another 1000 download... so 4k right there. Woot! Yeah I'll play those while the bf is at work. 

On October 20th I'm participating in Extra Life. It's a 24 hour video game marathon to raise money for Children's Miracle Network. I feel great about this event since 100% of the money raised is for helping sick kids. 
It'll be difficult to avoid playing Borderlands 2 the whole time, haha. I will be streaming the event live via capture card and webcam, so if anyone would like to join me for a co-op session, let me know! 
Here are some screenshots from last year's event, I had so much fun!! http://vitaminamy.blogspot.com/2011/10/highlights-extra-life...
This year I'll have a Kinect so things might get a bit embarrassing lol.
I'll share links for the live stream closer to the event.

Okay I'm still super tired and groggy... need energetic music... wake up!

Have a great day everyone!
