Total Gaming Geek Warrior Goddess

I have been playing Skyrim for a week now.  I must say this game is AMAZING!!! It is completely and totally EPIC. The amount of things to do is beyond belief. To all of the gamers out there, if you don't have this game already, GO GET IT. The open world layout is beautifully done, and you can totally immerse yourself in the main quests or find yourself getting distracted by the million and one side quests.

Introduction

First, let me welcome you to my world. What I am excited about tends to change on a regular basis, so be prepared for a rather eclectic range of topics. I always have something new on my mind, and I don't mind sharing my opinion. Those who know me can vouch for that. I currently have 2 topics that I am super excited about, The release of Skyrim is tomorrow and Breaking Dawn comes out in theaters next week. So stay tuned for my updates, and who knows what will come up in between!
