So it's been a few weeks since I wrote here I've been enjoying a lazy reading week in which I have done little or rather no reading. Which has been fantastic, yes I've played a lot of World of Warcraft, but not too much. Though just looking at xfire (which records the time I've spent playing games each week) and I've played 40 hours of WoW (World of Warcraft). Which is like a full time job! If only I was getting paid! Whats even more disturbing is that I've spent the past year playing WoW and according to xfire I've played it for a total of 765 hours! Which if my calculations are correct is 31ish days! so I spent a whole month playing WoW in a year! Amazing really! and I'm sure very very sad! It worries me to think what exactly I spent the other 11 months doing! A large amount of it must of been sleep... probably best that we don't know!
Anyway moving on from my geekyness to more healthy areas of my seemingly uncultured life. This week is 24/7 prayer, allow me to explain. Every year the CU (Christian Union) borrows a room from St Aidens community church and spends an entire week in there praying! The idea is that there is always someone there, even at stupid-o'clock in the morning. I've done a few shifts in there and it's been really good. We've got our Alpha course starting soon so mostly we have been praying for that but other things as well, like the local churchs, Middlesbrough, the Uni and stuff.
Yesterday night I ended up at The Empire which is probably the best club in Middlesbrough it was the first time I'd been and it was completely unexpected. We saw three bands the last being the best by far called The Infadels they had one song that I had heard of but they really did rock! The Empire is alot like Shepherds Bush Empire in London, its an old theater with the 3 floors, standing down on the ground floor and seating on floors 1 and 2 all with a view of the stage.
