Wombat Mobile I should be coding or sleeping instead of this...

I never thought this would happen, but last night and this morning I wished my commute was longer. There just isn't enough time to read bloglines on my phone, watch the Daily Show on my PSP, and get a good game of Lumines in.

I'm getting much better at Lumines and the games are taking pretty long, so the train usually reaches my destination before the game is over. I wish there was some sort of Save Game feature. I've been putting my PSP in sleep mode to continue the game later, but that's not always practical. I could play some of the short, timed games, but I've got to unlock those skins! Damn, just like the reviews said would happen, I'm addicted to Lumines.

I've come a long way since I first played this game and thought it was just Tetris.("I sure am getting a lot of square pieces...")

I never really understood Tamagotchis before, but now I find myself amused when my little character on the left gets excited and dances around when I make some great moves. This is very disturbing. And I can't believe I tried different characters and find myself coming back to the big, lumbering-looking frankensteinish blob.(can't find a pic online, sorry) I wonder which characters are the most popular among Lumines addicts.

I started watching a movie on my PSP, but I'm finding tv shows to be much easier. I like to devote my full attention to a movie and watch it in one sitting, but with tv shows, I can watch them half-assed and watch snippets at a time. They're also much smaller and easier to deal with the files.
